[opheliac]

Good evening,

I need a bit of some assistance or advice. My sleeper isn't being active and all she ever does is sleep. Making her get up just to do daily tasks like brush her hair, teeth, eat, and etc... it's just been very difficult!!

I'm wondering if this is happening with other sleepers or is it just her? And if this is happening with others, can you please give me some ideas on what I should do or what's been helpful? Thank you very much in advance!

— Signed,

A very concerned anonymous Omen.

If your Sleeper is a Coldblood, then it's the monthly blood effect.

Exercise will help her have more energy for a little while. However, she's going to need a lot of naps and understanding. It's good to make sure she always has company when going out, yours or someone else's.

[opheliac]

Oh, yes! She is indeed a Coldblood. So, I need to make her exercise. Okay, I'll write this down.
I've been trying to get her out of the house but it's been tough.

[stilljustyou]

Sometimes, new months can change people's moods -- maybe it's kind of like that.

It's good that you're looking after her.

[opheliac]

I see.

Of course! My sleeper is still very new to Trench and is gradually making friends. At least I'm hoping she is! There are a very small handful of people she talks to but not really frequently yet.

So I have to look out for her.

[martyrofduty]

People are affected to greater or lesser degrees. If she's particularly affected, you need to evaluate the magically induced need to sleep with whatever else she needs to do.

[stilljustyou]

It sounds like you're a really good friend for her, too.

[opheliac]

I like being her friend. She's really fun!
Would you like to be my friend too?

Have u tried throwing knives?
Works all the time.

[opheliac]

Boy oh boy! It sounds like you got this pretty down.
I'm super impressed! You must have been here a long time and seen so many crazy things!

[opheliac]

WHAT?! WHY WOULD I THROW KNIVES AT MY SLEEPER?!
That's VERY VERY rude and just MEAN.

[onekindsoul]

It's motivating.
It gets the blood pumping.

[opheliac]

There are safer ways!!!

[onekindsoul]

SAFETY IS OVERRATED!
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

[opheliac]

YOU'RE OUT OF LINE!
YOU'RE SUPPOSE TO BE NICE TO SLEEPERS! THIS IS NOT NICE.

[onekindsoul]

I'M OUT OF LINE!?
YOU'RE OUT OF LINE
THIS WHOLE WORLD IS OUT OF LINE
THIS IS VERY NICE
GET OFF MY BACK

[opheliac]

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!

[onekindsoul]

THE INJUSTICES OF THIS WORLD
CAN WE GO BACK TO TALKING ABOUT KNIVES!?

[opheliac]

NO. BECAUSE KNIVES WILL NOT HELP MY SITUATION.

[onekindsoul]

DON’T KNOCK IT UNTIL YOU TRY IT

[opheliac]

Friend, you need to love and protect your sleeper. Not throw knives at them.

[onekindsoul]

That's how I show my love!
My sleeper is fast and agile.
She would never get hit by a knife.
This helps her protect herself.

[opheliac]

What about cuddles?

[martyrofduty]

When you've lived 10,000 years, you've got a lot of exp under your belt.

[opheliac]

That IS a very long time. Then I have a question.
I like scratches but my sleeper has been too tired to give me those.
I don't want to bother sleepers for scratches.

What are your thoughts?

[martyrofduty]

Bears scratch against tree trunks. If that's too wide a grain, consider a loofah or pumice stone.
