NIGHT...

[boushi]

[Well that was a weird day, wasn't it! Really castle? Princess dresses? Ugh.

There's something even stranger about tonight though. Yet you can't seem to put your finger on it... what could it be?]

INTO A DEEP SLEEP...

[boushi]

[as mentioned in the ooc post this is for those of you who want a place to post your princess going to sleep and how it happens]

[hulloeverything]

[These skirts were NOT making anything easy. He gave up on tinkering and is in the TARDIS kitchen making something to eat. Without even realizing he's doing it, he softly sings to himself as he picks up up a little of this and a little of that to make a nice meal for himself and River.

Twirling around, he snags something from the fruit bowl and takes a big bite without even looking at it. He chews once before retching and spitting the bite across the room]

Oh ICK. A pear?! [He looks at the offending fruit in his hand. Suddenly he starts to sway, vision tunneling as exhaustion starts to overcome him]

Oh no... [Opening his mouth to call for River, his knees give out and he falls to the floor fast asleep.]

[disciplines]

[It's been a long and embarrassing day. How dare you put Alleyne in more clothes than normal, castle. She'll have you defeated yet.

She's by her table, Galadriel having insisted on brushing her hair to help her keep distracted from all this. Alleyne's long, light golden locks shined in the bit of moonlight that crept in, making her feel oddly relaxed and sleepy.

She tried to stifle a yawn but found herself failing. Had all this been that exhausting?]

I'm sorry...I'm gonna sleep now. Help yourself to the bed.

[Before she could say goodnight, she finds herself yawning again and pressing her face against her arms on the tableside, snoring lightly already, eyes closed. Her two monkeys follow suit, not because they're princesses or anything, but because they're just lazy.

At least she looks pretty peaceful as she saws logs.]

[inafadingcrown]

[Help herself to the bed, nothing. She's going to go back to her own room to sleep. But before she does, she'd just going to relocate Alleyne to the bed and tuck her in.

Goodnight, pseudo-granddaughter.]

[wheatdos]

[This is something that was far too much for him to handle, but even then, the scientist WAS a scientist, and he would have to do science whether he was in a dress or not... or else he would get the itch again. However, since Maya seemed to know how to get into his room... maybe it was a good idea to clean it up.

Just a little.

After all, it'd be unfortunate if she knocked over a big vial of neurotoxin or noxious acid all over herself. Cant have that happening to test subjects... Oh, he meant lab partners. He'd kick a few of the boxes of old androids under his table and shove them back where no one could see them. He'd also put the unused test tubes and beakers away. He'd ALSO hide those really inhumane testing lab reports from Maya so she didn't think he was going to subject the citizens of paradisa into some really freaky test. Which he wouldn't...

Anyway, he cleared off the place, but upon cleaning, he'd notice something. A syringe. Oh. Did he forget to put that away. Stumbling over back in his big crazy poofy dress, he'd go to pick up the syringe, but he'd accidentally prick his finger as he reached for it. How did he even MANAGE THAT. Staring at the syringe, he had NO idea what was in it. What? Wheatley panicked slightly as he looked at his finger. It could be anything. A disease, some sort of poison, NEUROTOXIN? He really had too much of that neurotoxin lying around.]

"Ok-okay Wheatley. Don't panic... Do not panic... Don't... AHHJGJ..."

[He panicked. Before he even had the chance to make it to one of his other desks, he passed out onto the floor, into a sleep.]

[direwolfbastard]

[Despite being in a big, foofy dress, Jon has tried his best to act as though everything was normal. Unfortunately for him, fate has other plans. He's currently sharpening Longclaw, an act which often helps to keep him calm and gather his thoughts, when he accidentally nicks himself on the blade. Cursing, he sucks at his finger, as Longclaw is horrendously sharp, he's lucky he didn't do more than nick himself. That's when he starts to feel it, an odd sleepiness fall over him.]

No...NO!

[And he falls over, unconscious, his sword falling away from him.]

[doublethefun]

[as evening approached, she started to feel more and more tired. Which, she reminded her muddled mind, was extremely odd. She was always more active during the night and - oh goodness, she tried to stifle a large yawn to no avail. Maybe, maybe it's because she's been staying up during the day lately, but it has never quite affected her like this before.

She groaned and shook herself before slowly getting back onto her hooves. A bit of tea might help, or even a quick flyover around the castle. Either way, she started to take a step towards low table with the tea set and...tripped on that long trailing dress, sending her towards the floor and her piles of notes.]

...Ponyfeathers. [blink. Is that a papercut on her muzzle?

...

...Well, whatever it was, too late. There is now a sleeping pony princess curled up on the floor of her room.]

MERMAIDS

[boushi]

[maybe you were sleeping, or just resting on your new tails. Maybe you were with other mermaid'd residents and are making fun of each other. Either way it's night and your partner is not here at the moment or sound asleep.

And there's now a strange girl in your vicinity, safely above the water]

Listen up, soulless sea creatures.

[wilder]

[Zelos was in the pool still, trying to figure out HOW to sleep as a mermaid. When he hears that voice, he'll look up. On one hand, so not liking being called soulless and this is just eerie]

[Buuut he'll still smile at her]

Hello there, hunny! ♥

[boushi]

[her face is indifferent, as cold and serious as before. She speaks simply and to the point]

Don't call me hunny. [HUNNY JANAI!!]

I've come to make a deal with you.

[wilder]

A deal?

[...]

What sort of deal we talking about here?

[boushi]

A deal that could return you something precious, should you succeed at my task.

[hard_talker]

[Mark had a Walkman perched on the edge of the tub, and a couple of towels wadded up behind his head. this was ... pretty much the best way he could figure to try and fall asleep, and it sucked.

aside from the fact that he had the most uncomfortable bed ever, the castle had decided to troll him by making this the only song he could listen to in his headphones. pretty? yes. OBNOXIOUS AS HELL in terms of context? definitely.

it doesn't make him any less annoyed at having his sleep attempts interrupted, though. starting, he sits bolt upright, towels and headphones both falling into the water]

What th-- Shit! ... Hey! What the fuck gives?!

[boushi]

Watch yourself in my presence lowlife mermaid.

I have come from the destination of fate to make a deal with you.

[hard_talker]

Why the hell should I watch myself if you're gonna stand there and talk to me like I'm a piece of shit? [he sneers, fishing the headphones up out of the tub and hanging them over the edge]

And I'm not soulless either. What the fuck. ... NORA, GET MY NINE-IRON, THERE'S A CRAZY BITCH IN THE BATHROOM.

[eat_me_beat_me]

[What the fuck, can't she get a decent night's sleep in this place anymore?!

Hearing his shouting, she throws the blankets off and leaps out of bed. Grabbing Mark's trusty Nine-Iron, she rushes for the bathroom.]

Jesus fucking Christ what is it with you and crazy bitches showing up in your room?!

[takethat]

[Phoenix has been stewing in Edgeworth's bathtub for hours now, miserable and bored with only a book he'd wished up to keep him company after Edgeworth went to bed. At the sound of this new voice, he looks up from said book and glares.]

I am not soulless.

[boushi]

Mermaids have no souls and you are a mermaid. Thus, you have no soul.

I have come here from the destination of fate to make a deal.

[takethat]

[Well, if she sounds that insane, he'd best not argue on the souls of mermaids with her.]

What... "deal"?

[gunslinger]

[ What the... Okay he's not very shocked finding Himari all decked out in some weird outfit, under the circumstances. But her expression and words are VERY MEAN. ]

Himari?! Did you lose your memory or something? Because anything short of that and I'll have to pay you back for that comment.

[boushi]

[BLANKEST OF STARES. notto disu shitto agen]

I am not your friend.

[gunslinger]

...Damn straight you're not.

[ At least now right now. What a bummer. He's bummed. And even more cranky now. ]

So are you just going to waste my time or say what you've got to say?

MERMAIDS

[noblefive]

You just wait 'til I get my hands on you. I'll show you soulless.

[Someone's not very happy.]

[boushi]

Watch it, mermaid. That's not a way to talk to someone about to give you your legs back.

[noblefive]

Do I look like a maid to you?!
