Hey fellow Moonblessies. [ Yuzuriha doesn't hide the fact that she's in a sour mood this evening, trying to smile and then swiftly giving that up. ] I absolutely hate not being able to get any good sleep. These days I keep having the same few dreams and at first it was all fine and dandy, I could just act like it never happened, but lately they're really trying to dig at me...

[ There's a moment where she looks away from the screen, a little miffed, and then it becomes evident that she's struck with something -- anyone familiar may know this as Yuzuriha's "brain blast". ]

Someone must've put a curse on me! I mean, it'd make sense after because I -- [ Have already made enemies? That's just one dude and she doesn't pay attention to the rest. ] just attract those kinds of people. It's so hard to live when you're just the ideal girl... [ Queue a dramatic sigh, the back of her hand being placed against her forehead as she leans against her couch. ]

All jokes aside I'm bored and would reaaaaaaaaaally love some company right now. Especially since I doubt I'll be sleeping anytime soon, so! [ She clasps her hands together, now focusing in on the camera with a wide grin. ] What kind of dreams wake y'all up in a fuss?

Nightmares, generally.

Ones that deal with abandonment or killing the people I care about.

wow you sure did start this off with a bang
but i'm sure plenty of people have had dreams where they've physically harmed people they knew
killing though....
these people don't typically get on your bad side, i'd hope

[ The abandonment part? She's purposely skipping that. ]

I dream of family. I miss them greatly.

What sort of dreams are you having?

Sure did.

They usually don't. I like them a lot, actually. Sure, I get annoyed at them but nothing so drastic.

Oh you know, the usual sort. All the things I've ever done wrong, magnified to an obscene degree. That's if I get to sleep in the first place, of course.

You're cursed too? Where I'm from, that only happens to guys. They say that if you die in the nightmare, you die in real life.

What kind of nightmares do you have?

For someone plagued by nightmares you seem to be doing fine.

In any case, I can't say I'm nightmare free either. Watching your mother die and your home burn does that to you.

Memories of my days back in the frontlines would always do the trick. Though it's more a big rush of adrenaline and maybe some stress, a little bit of trauma if the right memory checks in. I know a good sleeping trick if you're having trouble.

that's really sweet!
now i kinda wish i wasn't an only child, maybe then i'd have nicer dreams...

[ Forget about the fact that she's lying -- but no one knows of her sister, so a little white lie spread around here and there won't kill anybody. Especially when Yuzuriha isn't trying to open up any more than she already has. ]

ugh there are these gross monsters chasing me
they're from back home ummmm
gimme a second lemme see if i can draw one!

[IMG ATTACHMENT: 174.png]

it's a monster that towers above the trees and has arms spilling out of its eyes
gross right??

it seems like a lot of people here have done questionable things
it probably won't make you feel any better, but hey in the list of the worst people here depending on what you did you may not be the top ten!!!!
so there's that

but what do you mean? you don't sleep?
how do you even survive man...

[ God... it feels so good when a lie works. ]

HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH?
don't tell me that!! i'll be REALLY spooked y'know!? i've got way too hot of a body be dying in a nightmare, that's so lame!!

it's a bunch of creep crawlies trying to get all over me
like butterflies with human faces, huge centipedes that eat flesh...
sometimes it's like i can feel them across my skin and i wake up with goosebumps all over!

are you gonna start claiming that i'm lying about them too??

[ But wow... that trauma drop...

People here show their heart way too easily. ]

do you feel like you could have prevented any of that?

Oh, sorry, I wasn't trying to scare you. I've only heard of it happening where I'm from, and it only happens to certain guys.

That's creepy though... You think there's a way to make your nightmares stop?

wow that sounds like a trip.
a little bump in the road and it just sticks with a person forever, can't even sleep peacefully... some of you folk deserve better.

[ keyword being some. ]

oh yeah? what's the trick?

i wonder what makes nightmares or dreams like that so dramatic...
you'd imagine there's a little bit of truth in it, or maybe it's a reflection of what you truly fear will happen?

Entirely possible, I suppose. Alas, I'm uncertain as to whether it'll do much to alleviate my guilt.

How do I survive? Coffee, my dear. Black as my sins, and lots of it.

"certain guys"
what makes them different from the rest??
are they like... murderers or something

i doubt it.
not to sound like a pessimistic or anything but i've learned in life that some things just kinda stick with you through thick and thin. you might think you've got it wiped from memory and then it comes to bite you in the ass and whatever.
i just so happened to have been trapped on an island with gross creatures like that and now the image is just stuck!
but who knows, maybe i can find something that'll help me out.

dunno if it'll help with your curse though.

Hey, I didn't say I was cursed. It might just be a rumour, but there's been a bunch of weird deaths lately... They say men who cheat on their partners get cursed.

[Too bad he's a less convincing liar than she is.]

How'd you get stuck on an island? Did you get shipwrecked or something, like in a movie?

coffee can do THAT much?
even the toughest guys i know collapse after some point
back black is so harsh to drink... how can you stand it

What can I say? I like my drinks bitter.

But let's call it practice, my dear. Sleep has always been a fickle mistress.

that sounds like a looooooot of intel from someone only going based on rumors
but if you're not cursed good on you! that must mean you're a loyal man!
i like that.

[ But time for her to make an elaborate lie right on the spot... Should she be a princess on the run? ]

it was a trading ship, i was accompanying a man with a group of others as guards since he was apparently a pretty important guy??
i was supposed to just sit and look pretty but then the ship crashed and we washed up on that terrible island!

I'm not some dream expert, so I honestly wouldn't know.

I'd guess probably the latter, though. That's generally what it is for nightmares, I'd expect.

Wow, seriously? How long were you trapped there for?

When did the nightmares start becoming worse? Maybe there's a particular trigger.

i mean
that’s not a lie
but this is the first I’m hearing someone call the concept of lacking sleep a “fickle mistress”

when and where are you from
