Wake up, morning routine, spend the afternoon with Blueberry Milk, go to your garden, have dinner, and sleep.

Wake up, morning routine, spend the afternoon with Blueberry Milk, go to your garden, have dinner, and sleep.

Wake up, sleep, wake up, sleep.

Why did everything feel so repetitive?

"Ugh!" A hiss escaped your lips as you noticed the small cut on your finger.

It seemed you had pressed too hard against the rose’s thorns, causing blood to well up from the wound.

You brought your finger to your mouth, licking it to stop the bleeding and avoid doing anything else foolish. You had never been careless enough to cut yourself on your own flowers before.Out of the corner of your eye, you caught a glimpse of something—small blue specks, just for a fraction of a second.

You immediately turned your head, scanning your surroundings, but there was nothing. No one. Just you.

Maybe you really were starting to get a little paranoid. After all, Blueberry Milk was right—you did need more sleep.

He was always right. Not you. The one acting strangely was you, not him.

Uhm, Reader feels something weird.. Or it's just their paranoia?

The SleepAw.ai AU

As human beings, we all share a few common grounds: eating, drinking, and sleeping -- in fact, sleep is one of the few things in life that you can’t live without. This simple fact makes it one of the best targets for curious minds in design (only so many people find repeated use for a can opener, but a bed is universal, and therefore lucrative). 

Character A sets their mind on integrating the most important invention of the century into one of the oldest inventions time had to offer: an artificially driven mattress that changes according to the needs of the user in a split second. The invention was lovingly called "SleepAw.ai" and was a massive success, being purchased by the thousands, installed in hospitals, hotels, etc., all for a relatively reasonable price. They’d done it: they’d given the world a truly good night’s rest.

As with any invention, though, it soon got away from them. Stockholders became disinterested after purchases began to flatline (after all, where would the profit come from after everyone already had the mattress other than routine maintenance?). Marketing and business analysts came to the conclusion that if BMW could get away with it, so could they. The revolutionary SleepAw.ai became rife with microtransactions that locked away beloved features (heating, tweaks, lumbar support, etc.) behind a paywall. As it turns out, you can put a price on a good night’s rest.

Months after the update is rolled out, customers begin reporting worsened sleep, including not being able to fall asleep quickly and waking up too early. This pattern and reports continued, almost in a rhythm, across the board. In a fit of rage, Character A infiltrates their own labs, performing digital espionage to figure out exactly what was happening to their pride and joy. 

TL;DR - Character A discovers that the restless nights of their customers is due to a new type of ad software, meant to target the first and last REM cycles that could have been achieved in a normal night’s rest. As it turns out, the company had made a deal with caffeine-based and sleeping pill companies to share the resulting profits of customers buying pills to sleep, needing caffeine to stay awake, and purchasing new SleepAw.ai’s after thinking theirs must be defective. The unfortunate reality of capitalism and greed may have never been so clear.

I'm a bit late to the party on the favorite fanfic thing but you were the one who introduced me to the concept of fahc ot6 all sharing a big bed together and I'll never not be grateful for that, I can't pick out a favorite but maybe once a month or so I go back through your blog and reread a bunch of your sleepy fakes asks because it's just the most soft and wholesome content

Awww… thank you, sweet Anon. <3 I’m so glad my sleepy fakes can soothe you! It’s truly the sweetest concept, it’s one of the ones I go back to as well when I’m stressed. I personally sleep so much better when I’m with another person, so I love to transfer that to the Fakes. Just a big snuggle puddle all curled up together, that innate trusting nature keeping them warm with one another.

I wanted to make a masterpost but I’m not great enough at tagging. Most of everything is written underneath my #my writing tag, so you should be able to dig out things. There’s some older stuff under #sleep, too.

I’m really happy you like it so much. It’s so soft. Feel free to send sleepy boi asks in whenever you want, starshine - I’ll get to them when I can, but I love them regardless if I reply or not! <3

Festival of Sleep Day & Memento Mori

Person A is a half-reaper who when they sleep, their dreams are the memories of people who died that day. One day, Person B dies and Person A sees their memories, but instead of it only lasting one night, Person B’s soul lingers long enough for Person A to see almost their entire life, and begins to grow a strong attachment to the lingering spirit. But strangest of all, the Person B in the memories can seemingly see and interact with and speak to Person A.

Dream Day Quest and Jubilee & Willing-to-Lend-a-Hand Wednesday

Person A is a dream demon, but has a specific interest in scavenger hunts, and so likes to give the humans they live in the dreams of things to find or tasks to complete in the waking world, and gives them nightmares if they fail to complete them. Person B is someone who has very little will to live, but as their dreams keep giving them reasons to get out of the house and do small things that accidentally improve their mental health, they start to think of Person A as a guardian angel.
