Ship Sleep Dynamics
Turvi and Naera
The most codependent, chaotic found siblings you’ll ever meet.
This is entirely self indulgent for me and @serensama. Please, no one else feel obligated to read this nonsense lol.

How often do they sleep together?
Every night that they aren’t sleeping with someone else, and are in the same place - whether thats out together on a mission or at home in Rivain.
Where do they sleep?
Always in Turvi’s space. Naera finds him like a homing pigeon. It doesn’t matter where he is, she will find him. Unless he’s hiding out at her house to avoid her, and thats only if he’s brought a lady home. (Taking someone to Naera’s for happy fun times is the only way he can have a night to himself without Naera interrupting at some point lol)
How do they prepare to sleep?
Turvi is very much a fall into bed guy. His sleep preparation happens during the day when he burns off his energy. He’s gotta get all of it out to be able to sleep well.
Naera will take a bath if it’s available, and they’ll both end up smelling like her lavender bath oils. If shes drunk (which happens a lot, especially if they’re home), she’s crawling into bed as is, maybe stripping down first.
What do they wear to sleep?
Turvi would like to sleep naked. But with Naera often naked, he will not lolol. Smalls at least.
Do they cuddle?
Naera is a koala during the day and octopus at night. She can’t sleep unless she’s positively tangled up with Turvi. Good news is, he loves cuddling so it works out. Turvi absolutely sleeps better if he’s got someone to cuddle with.
What are their preferred sleep positions?
Turvi isn’t picky. He can sleep pretty much anywhere on any surface. However Naera is wrapped up is fine.
How easy do they fall asleep?
As long as Turvi has gotten his energy out, very quickly. Naera similarly falls asleep easily. Both really a hold over from slavery, after working hard you sleep when you can.
Do they toss and turn a lot?
When Turvi is on a ship out on the water is when he sleeps the very best. The rocking of the boat is soothing and he won’t move at all. He will toss a little when sleeping on land. As long as Naera is properly cuddled, she’s a content sleeper too.
Do they snore?
Turvi only snores lightly, and occasionally. Naera however, always snores. How loud it is depends on how drunk she is.
Who hogs the blanket?
Turvi hates being cold. He will fight for a blanket if it’s chilly out. Naera being there does help him stay warm.
What do they dream about?
Turvi has some dreams sometimes, but really not often and he rarely remembers them. If he does have dreams it’s usually about his childhood with his family.
Naera dreams happily most of the time as well. Nightmares rarely wake either of them.
How easily do they wake up?
Turvi wakes easily. He’s not necessarily a light sleeper but it isn’t hard to wake him if you’re trying.
Naera too is used to slave and then ship life, so she wakes up easily.
How awake they are afterwards?
Turvi is a morning person, so he’s up and just ready to go, no coffee required.
Naera is up and ready to go pretty easily as well. But will curl back up in bed if given the chance. She will try to convince turvi to stay in bed if they’re at home, but this is the one thing he rarely indulges her in (nearly anything else he’s a total pushover for her)

Look. They see each other as siblings, I swear. I have ideas for a little ficlet about how they met and how they ended up like this lol. I’ll get it done someday!
Also tossing out a tag for @genjyoandgojyoandhakkai because i think you might be the only other person that might enjoy this silliness lol.
