Is it common around here for people to sleep for inordinate amounts of time? He usually conks out for at least 6 hours a night, but it's getting on 2 days now with no signs of him getting out of bed.

Please don't tell me somebody has to kiss him. Not unless you're willing to volunteer.

I can't say it's "common" but it has happened before.

Kissing doesn't usually work.

What does?

[ Satan wouldn't care either way. ]

Nothing. You will have to wait it out.

The gods won't care either, so it's no use telling them to do something.

[zen_en_vert]

Who is it this time?

[seesobserves]

Why does that matter?

[zen_en_vert]

My employer hasn't come to work, and I can't reach his bracelet- but it doesn't seem dead, either. I'd like to find out where he is, and a network post on someone sleeping seems a little topical.

I'm searching for John Watson.

It's happened to myself, more than once. It's very typical, as I'm sure some have said.

And kissing doesn't work. My ex-boyfriend and my fiance both tried.

Mmn. Kissing to wake someone up is more a product of later Germanic folklore, anyhow. Doesn't fit the theme.

If you follow Earth history, I suppose.

[feathery]

you bother with anything else besides macking on him
you know
yelling in his face
threatening his favorite hat
drawing dicks on him and the surrounding furniture
i mean even though none of it works its standard procedure

[seesobserves]

Shouted a bit, but he's normally a light sleeper. Any louder would have been useless anyway.

[feathery]

dunno you might have woken up your neighbors
which could be a good or bad thing

Depends on whom I'm kissing.

Are you a fan of short men with slightly squashed-looking faces?

[justacough]

Hmm, it's possible, darling. I'm not likely to say no until I see what I'm dealing with.

I was recently asleep for a particularly extended time. He's all right, just sleeping. I imagine it's irritating to wait.

[audio]

[seesobserves]

Inconsiderate of him. I only just got here.

Re: [audio]

Always is, and mind, don't go blaming him. When it's sleep like this, I'd say it's really the city and it's magic gone off. [An eyebrow arches.] Might as well have tea and then some.

I know how that is, being new and suddenly your friend falls asleep for days. Wish I could get that kind of nap.

Who's sleeping this time? Oh, and don't bother trying to set up a saline drip to make sure they're hydrated. It's not necessary. I learned that the embarrassing way.

[seesobserves]

Are you another one of his clinic helpers?

[text] good lord so late

[stilledsurgeon]

Helpers??

[The offended huff can almost be heard in that one word.]

Actually, I'm a surgeon at the hospital, thanks. I know John because we're both in Medics and we're both Army doctors.

Are you a friend from home?

It has been known to happen, yes. But it's not really something that happens every day, so common might not really be the best of words for it.

The initial responses signal that it's commonplace, if not frequent. Typical enough to be unalarming.

[voice]

[routinemercy]

Common enough that nobody seems the slightest bit interested in stopping it.

[voice]

[seesobserves]

Troubling enough that some people would be. Although I assume you haven't found anything useful.
