Zzz...

Theodor Ovesen || 22 years old || Straight Personification: Sloth || Time Manipulation Now go away...

[kentdupont]

Back and ready for action.

[kentdupont]

Or myself, right.  I try where I can to satisfy both.

[theodorovesen]

(/blinks at Kent, curious but trying to figure out if he even cares enough to know) How does...me sleeping...help you? 

[chaoticxqueen]

...

[chaoticxqueen]

[Watches in silence as Theo walks in and tries to walk back out.] Whatever asshole, no ice cream for you.

[theodorovesen]

... (/glances back at her when he gets caught; silently debates which option would cause him less trouble later before opting to slowly grab a seat on the kitchen island) ...glad you're enjoying it. [Ice cream holds no bargaining power over me.]

[grey-wondering]

Back home.

[grey-wondering]

I just don’t like to be woken up once I’ve finally gotten to sleep, you know?

I know it is. It’s just, like… hard for me. 

[theodorovesen]

Sleeping Beauty? (/his lips approach a smile before they disappear again) 

(/shrugs) Perseverance. [I mean, that's the only way you get better at something, right? Repetition and the determination to try again and again. Not sure if it applies to sleep but it should. That or make sleep a sport - I'd win.]

[kentdupont]

Back and ready for action.

[kentdupont]

Yea, yea, I’ll manage.  -waves a dismissive hand, don’t worry about the rest-  I thought I told you I was gratification?  Did I not?  Either way, that’s me, here to make people feel good.

[theodorovesen]

(/resists the urge to pass Kent an annoyed glance, pausing until it disappears) Hm. [Whatever.] Or yourself? [It was never specified whether it was in others but you don't exactly seem like the selfless type.]

[grey-wondering]

Back home.

[grey-wondering]

I love it, it’s just, like, hours long. I never get to sleep through that. My mind doesn’t shut off, man, like ever. Naps are a waste of time. If I get to sleep, I’m like, fucking going to stay that way. You know?

[theodorovesen]

...naps...are never a waste of time. [They are the perfect recharge when your body can't handle the day anymore.] Like coffee. 

Sleep is important [try to get more of it if you can. Or don't, it doesn't really matter to me. But it looks like you could use some.]

[kentdupont]

Back and ready for action.

[kentdupont]

Oh, it would be funny if they started stalking me, huh?  Well, I guess I wouldn’t mind as much as someone who dislikes interaction.  -thinks a moment-  If you ever need anything, need me to come whisk people away for you, just let me know. 

[theodorovesen]

(/shrugs) [I suppose it'd be funny, but like I said] I'm sure you'd manage. [With whatever you have up your sleeve anyway.] ... [I don't dislike in- well, I find it too much effort.] 

Why [do you wish to help me so much]?

[chaoticxqueen]

...

[theodorovesen]

(/walks into the kitchen looking for a snack) ...

(/wonders if he can walk back out unnoticed; tries) 

[grey-wondering]

Back home.

[grey-wondering]

Like.. I can’t just close my eyes and sleep, man. It takes a lot of work and sometimes, like, medication to make my mind stop wandering. I can sit around for hours, like, thinking and doing nothing and never fall asleep. 

[theodorovesen]

That's the best...part, isn't it? [Working out your thoughts and figuring them all out without any distractions.]

Sounds like...quality me-time [to me].

[kentdupont]

Back and ready for action.

[kentdupont]

Well, just so I would know who to watch out for.

Fine, just remember, you’ve always got a place there.

[theodorovesen]

(/pauses for a moment, eyeing Kent) 

I believe you'll manage. [I'm not interested in gossiping.] 

Alright, thanks. 

[grey-wondering]

Back home.

[grey-wondering]

Yea, it is. And I think… I could, like, conceivably sleep. But, as much as you totally won’t understand it, I’m actually totally awful at sleeping. 

[theodorovesen]

Awful? ...how? [You just close your eyes and drift off.]

[kentdupont]

Back and ready for action.

[kentdupont]

I just thought since these people are more high-strung, emotional than humans, it might make it more difficult for you.  Who?

Undecided?  Well, I’d like you in my bed for a number of reasons, but overall, I just like to give people what they want.  You seem to want sleep and I have the most delectable bedding you’ll find anywhere.

[theodorovesen]

They are [the] same in my eyes. [I have yet to see the difference.] Irrelevant [now that he's stopped]. 

[When you word it that way,] why? I can sleep almost anywhere, [it doesn't really matter to me].

[grey-wondering]

Back home.

[grey-wondering]

Yeah, it kind of was. Like, a huge hassles, yeah. *Sighs, thinking* Let Vivian know I’m back and give her a thing, which I already did, and attend my fucking pet so he doesn’t die of loneliness, which… I also did… Actually that might be everything I had to do…

[theodorovesen]

Well...at least it's done, yes? So... [what's stopping you from sleeping again]?

[grey-wondering]

Back home.

[grey-wondering]

Well it’s not like I walked. *Shrugs* Have things to do first. Don’t, like, actually have time just yet, you know?

[theodorovesen]

Still [a] hassle. (/scratches his head as he gives a sigh, unsure of how much extra work it would be to ask) ...like? [And not really but, okay. I like sleep, I'll make time for it.]

[grey-wondering]

Back home.

[grey-wondering]

Went to Texas for a bit, man. It was some exhausting shit. 

[theodorovesen]

It's far. [I'd imagine that it be quite exhausting.] Sleep [it off]? 

[kentdupont]

Back and ready for action.

[kentdupont]

So, is it easier to be around humans than personifications?  -narrows his eyes-  You have stalkers?  Hey man, if you need a bed or something, mine’s got a vacancy.

[theodorovesen]

[They are] the same. [I've yet to find a difference between them when it comes to degree of bothersome.] Stalker. [But, he] stopped.

[So it's fine now.] (/pauses before tossing out a slow shrug) [I don't know if you're hitting on me right now or just being overly friendly.] 

[grey-wondering]

Back home.

Fucking tired. That was like, an exhausting trip, man. 

[theodorovesen]

Trip? [Seems like everyone's on one lately.] 

[kentdupont]

Back and ready for action.

[kentdupont]

So being social wears you out then.  -nods, picking up on the low-level hum of power in approval-  Gratification, at your service.

[theodorovesen]

Usually. [But, I figure it's really people with over the top personalities. Either way, I've been getting used to the place.] And stalkers. Ah. Welcome. (/getting tired already; used up too much energy today)
