017 [Voice]

[fabrecation]

[It's rather late at night when the journal clicks on. Luke had waited until he had calmed down from the nightmare he had to make the post, and good thing, too. Otherwise it'd catch the tremor he surely had in his voice.

Instead, he merely sounds subdued, and maybe a little hesitant.]

Does anyone have any good stories to tell?

Or... any advice on how to get back to sleep? [Nothing he usually does is working right now.]

Comments

[voice] ALL OF THEM.

[fabrecation]

[Memories are what he's trying to get away from.

But he doesn't say that out loud. Instead, he raises an eyebrow and rubs the back of his head.]

How're you supposed to let your mind float?

[voice] My god...it's full of points!

[bemyused]

Myu, Pommy doesn't know. That's just what Bomberman told Pommy.

[If you couldn't already tell, Pommy doesn't exactly have a lot of thoughts or memories to float through, were he so inclined to do any sort of meditation.]

[voice] And they don't matter! 8D

[fabrecation]

Oh...

[...] Anything else you can think of? [Because Luke isn't sure about this meditating thing.]

[voice] ...I will now go drown myself in a sea. Of points. That don't matter.

[bemyused]

Myuuu...what about medicine? Pommy knows that sometimes people take medicine to help them sleep.

[voice] ... that's a sucky death. ):

[fabrecation]

Like sleeping pills? I don't know... I heard that stuff's kind of dangerous if you take too much. [Doesn't stop him from taking some, but he doesn't really like the idea of it anyway.]

[voice] Not as sucky as YOUR FACE. (Oh yes I went there!)

[bemyused]

Really? Pommy's never heard that. [There's a lot this creature hasn't heard of. Or doesn't remember hearing of, really. He lets out a high-pitched sigh.] Myu, okay...what about counting sheep until you fall asleep? [Don't you think he's tried something obvious like that already, creampuff?]

[voice] ................ ):

[fabrecation]

[Actually...]

... Sheep?

[voice] I KID! You are awesome for being an awesome Luke. 8D

[bemyused]

Yep! You imagine sheep jumping over a fence and just keep counting them until you get sleepy! 'Cause it's supposed to be boring, so it makes you tired.

[voice] asldkfjasdf w-well thank you! ///

[fabrecation]

[That's nice, but...]

Uh... I know this'll probably sound weird, but... what's a sheep?

[voice] I'm ttly not stalking Van's arrival log or anything, no sir. |D

[bemyused]

[...oh boy. Explaining things is not this critter's strong point.]

Um...a sheep is a really fluffy animal! People shave its wool off to make sweaters.
