Cosette: Good morning, Fandom! I hope everyone is doing well today.

Éponine: It's funny, I don't feel half as rested this morning as I did every time I woke up yesterday and found myself in the middle of doing something.

Cosette: Those were awfully nice naps, weren't they?

Éponine: They've ruined sleep for me for a while now, I expect. Though at least I won't nod off halfway through counting out someone's change today, and won't that be nice? There's only so much of that sort of embarrassment --

Cosette: Don't be absurd, 'Ponine, you were hardly the only one in that predicament. We were all falling asleep in Adulting, but at least we know it likely wasn't because we were learning about filling out tax forms, because Sparkle, who was teaching us to bake things in the microwave on account of Monsieur Lecter currently being some sort of reptile, kept falling asleep in Baking. Mis-Intelligence watched a movie about code-breakers during the second World War --

Éponine: Two of those. Plus ça change . . .

Cosette: Hush. I don't know if Barry was falling asleep in the library, but he was certainly in a good mood. Edward kept falling asleep in the common room on the fifth floor, and made himself a blanket fort -- oh, that sounds like fun! If I'd known, I would have helped.

Éponine: And Flick fell asleep in the middle of putting on his shoes. Doesn't that sound amusing! Isabelle thought so too, it seems, only she got a call about having to go home right away and couldn't stay to enjoy the sight.

Cosette: Oh, dear. I hope everything will be all right.

Éponine: Seems Mike decided not to bother getting out of bed and just worked on his plans for the house from there -- smart move, that, what with all the falling asleep. Safer that way, I should think.

Cosette: Imagine if someone fell asleep in the middle of walking down the stairs!

Éponine Ha -- I don't have to imagine it, thank you.

Cosette: . . . oh, dear. Mary kept calling the kitchen at the Arms Hotel for coffee, because she kept dozing off at the desk, and Atton was at the Perk drinking coffee to stave off the naps --

Éponine: -- and the person working the counter at JGOB fell asleep in the middle of ringing up Kitty's order. Eliot was in the middle of doing paperwork at Luke's when he fell asleep, only to be rudely awakened by the busboy, who -- well, serves you right, getting hit, for waking him.

Cosette: I'm sure he was only trying to be helpful. Kenzi was up to something and rather full of energy at Caritas . . .

Éponine: That first thing's hardly news. Kenzi's always up to something. Monsieur Jack was napping in the VIP section of the Devil's Nest, where Allie stopped in to doze off rather than get a drink, and they decided if the island was trying to kill us all, there could have been worse ways to go.

Cosette: I'm glad that wasn't the case, at least! It was quite the busy day at Needful Things, that new shop. Kenzi had her eye on a ring that could make its wearer disappear. Sparkle -- oh, no -- got caught trying to steal a ceramic frog --

Éponine: Oh, hell.

Cosette: Monsieur the librarian Constantine stopped in for a look as well, though he wasn't quite as impressed by the cursed sword Monsieur Gaunt showed him. Rinoa, on the other hand, was rather taken in by the simple fact that it's an antiques shop, to say nothing of the old books . . . oh.

Éponine: Oh. Well, how d'you like that! Expensive as anything, I'll bet, a place like that. That's a shame. Still, I ought to stop in and take a look sometime.

Cosette: I think I will too, at that. All right, that's all the notes we've got, so have a pleasant day, everyone!

Éponine: Even if it won't be as restful as yesterday.
