It happens to everyone - sometimes, you have nights where you just can't fall asleep, no matter what you do. It could be for a number of reasons, or no reason at all. And this is what's happened now: you've been laying in bed for what feels like hours, just tossing and turning, and nothing seems to help. So what's left to do? Get out of bed and go wake someone else up, of course. If you're not getting any sleep, then why should they?

o p t i o n s 
01 • FEAR. Maybe you're hearing strange, indeterminable noises; maybe there's a severe storm happening outside; maybe you watched a scary movie before bed? Whatever the reason, you're terrified and it's keeping you awake. You just want to wake someone else up so they can protect you from the monster in your closet.
02 • HUNGER. Your stomach is growling and it just won't stop. Or perhaps your throat is so dry you could cough up a tumbleweed? Well, you've gone to the kitchen to remedy this and hey, that was a pan that just dropped on the floor. It was loud enough to wake the dead! Oops.
03 • PAIN. Your body is completely worn out, be it from exercise, battle, sickness, or what have you. Either way you're in enough pain to keep you from sleeping, so maybe someone else has a home remedy or something, or can at least help you take your mind off of it.
04 • SOLITUDE. For some reason, your bed just feels so empty at the moment. You're feeling terribly lonely and really just want someone to keep you company for a while. Maybe it'd be easier to fall asleep if you're with them...
05 • DISCOMFORT. Your room is an oven. Either that or a freezer. Or maybe this bed is just really uncomfortable? Who knows why you can't get to sleep, it feels like it could be anything. Why even bother trying? Maybe someone else can preoccupy you until you feel tired enough to ignore your discomfort.
06 • PENSIVE. Something's on your mind, and no matter how hard you try to focus elsewhere, it's just not going to work. Your body may be tired, but your mind is incredibly busy and it's virtually impossible to get to sleep. Surely, talking it out with someone else will help?
07 • SADNESS. Something terrible has happened that day, perhaps; or you could just be severely depressed. Either way you're trying your hardest not to cry yourself to sleep, and it's not working at all. Better find a way to get it out of your system somehow; you need a shoulder to cry on.
08 • ANGER. You are just... fuming. Who knows why - that annoying dog is barking again, or maybe the people next door are getting busy and keeping you awake. Whatever the reason for your ire is, you'd better put an end to it so you can get some damn rest already! Go wake up a friend so you can complain to them.
09 • RESTLESS. You're far too energetic to sleep right now. Maybe you're just trying to do so out of necessity - you have to be up early tomorrow! But you just don't think you'll be able to fall asleep for a while now, so why waste the time trying to sleep when you could be doing something else? Namely bothering someone else - you're totally jealous because they're getting more sleep than you.
10 • WILDCARD. Choose one of the options above, or make up your own scenario.

Good plan.

[Much less. He moves in carefully and easily, lips touching the other wise, before his tongue moves to taste it as well.

And well, who's to say their tongues won't meet? They'll at least brush against each other briefly, and that's a start.]

[hasthepotential]

[If it startles Minako, she doesn't let on. She sucks a little more off the spoon and captures another puddle of rapidly-melting cream in her tongue before drawing back and letting Minato have the last of the spoonful.

She tries not to watch too intently.] You don't think it'll melt too fast, do you?

[mp3]

Ah, I don't know. Though, if some of it drips...

[Charm, go go]

I'll just have to lick it up, won't I?

[hasthepotential]

[Charm, indeed!]

I think...[She smiles coyly as she scoops another spoonful.] You're trying to sneak away all my ice cream for yourself. [She holds it out again in offering.] It's your bed. If you don't mind the mess...

[mp3]

Maybe. [Ohoho.]

I don't mind at all. Go ahead.

[He'll motion for her to go ahead! Don't wanna knock heads again, after all.]

[hasthepotential]

[Don't turn this into a competition, Minato.

She complies, leaning in and nipping at the ice cream with her lips, intentionally taking up a little more space than before.]

[mp3]

[But it's a fun one!

Especially when she starts taking up more space. Good thing he can do the same. Time to brush lips now, Minako!]

[hasthepotential]

[what happened to sharing?!

No matter. Minako scoots closer, appearing unfazed by the close contact, more interested in getting 'her share', bumping shoulders.]

[mp3]

[This is sharing! Just sharing a kiss instead of ice cream. Or well, for the most part. He'll move closer himself, shoulder leaning on hers now, while his tongue moved out to lick at the ice cream.

And her lips.]

[hasthepotential]

[This time it startles Minako enough to gasp and giggle, though remember, she's the one holding the spoon, so that spoon jumps with her, and splats the remaining ice cream right in Minato's nose.

That just makes her giggle more. Sorry, high school girl.]

[mp3]

[Oh god, colddddd... ! He quickly starts to wipe his nose with the blanket, not really caring at this point for the mess.

While he won't be licking that up, he will flick the spoon in her direction a bit, trying to splatter some of the residue onto her.]

... Cold...

[hasthepotential]

[Minako is about to shriek, but she quickly silences herself, tugging up the sheets and shielding herself.] It was an accident! I promise..!

[She reaches for the spoon with the full intent of wrestling it from Minato's grip.]

[mp3]

Uh huh.

[Well, he'll wrestle back! It's not too much noise at least, and it's kind of fun, so he might as well! He doesn't want her to get a hold of it, at least. Let's get ready to rumble... !

Over a spoon.]

[hasthepotential]

Don't you--[There's a small grunt as she tries to climb on top of him to pry the spoon out of his fingers.]--believe me?!

[She's trying not to get too noisy. It's easier for Minato for a myriad of reasons.]

It was my ice cream to begin with, besides!!

[There may be more than a little whining in her voice.]

[mp3]

Was it?

[It was. But man, is she cute. He can't help but smile as he holds an iron grip on the spoon. Though, her on top of her isn't too good...

So why not reverse it? He'll grab her, and turn over with her, to lay over her with the spoon still in his hand.]

Maybe you could give me another treat instead?

[hasthepotential]

[Gotta hand it to you, Minato. It usually takes a lot more to shut Minako up.]

....

[Her eyes flicker to the spoon for just a moment before fixing back on his eyes, her lips pulled tight at a loss for what to say.]

[mp3]

[Ohoho. He's good about that.]

Hm?

[He never got an answer, Minako! Well?]

[hasthepotential]

...w...would I get the ice cream in exchange?

[PRIORITIES, Minako!!]

[mp3]

You could always have ice cream while I get my treat too.

[But yes. Ice cream will be had.]

I'll get you more tomorrow too, if you really want.

[hasthepotential]

Deal.

[All official-like.]

But we can't get caught, so...what's your asking price?

[mp3]

I can be quiet if you can.

[Hmm, let's see...]

If you still want ice cream right now, we can either kiss or you can suck.

[Saying it flat out. No shame!]

I don't know which you would like more though.

[hasthepotential]

[She knew this was coming, so why is she blushing at his boldness?]

...suck...what?

[Either way, her mouth would be occupied...]

[mp3]

[He'll motion down! What else?]

It'll be cold, but I can handle it.

[But exactly! It's a win win.]

[hasthepotential]

[Minako casts her eyes to the side, frowning thoughtfully.]

S'no reason we can't do both...

[She is a glutton, after all.]

[mp3]

That's true.

[He doesn't mind this one bit.]

I'd be fine with that.

[He's very much happy with this.]

Should we start, then?
