I think this is the longest I've gone without sleeping.

[She holds a hand to her forehead, but she sounds awake and alert. A small origami book is on the desk in front of her. Covering her floor are several hundred origami paper cranes.]

I don't like this event so much. [She finishes the final fold on a crane, puts it aside, and smiles furtively.] Five hundred and seventeen.

[Locked to Lucifer||Hackable]
I almost forgot to lock this. Hardly any of my friends know you're here... I'll be up on the roof until dawn. [She quickly adds the next part.] If you want to help me practice.

[Usually over the course of a few days, Jack will at least have caught an hour or two of rest, so the narration hopes he can be forgiven for sounding heavy and thick-voiced.]

Teach me?

[demiurgos-girl.livejournal.com]

I'm no expert, but I can try.

...Not tonight, though.

[kindly-done.livejournal.com]

After the event. When we're not so tired. Is it almost over?

[demiurgos-girl.livejournal.com]

If it lasts three or four days, then yes. How are you holding up?

[kindly-done.livejournal.com]

I don't like the noises. I don't like the way it smells.

[demiurgos-girl.livejournal.com]

Smells? [Oh, that stale, clean smell hospitals always have. She had shut it out.] Mm. It just means it's really clean. Doesn't smell natural, though.

Still haven't had any sleep?

[kindly-done.livejournal.com]

Not yet.

Have you seen Angel? Is she okay?

[demiurgos-girl.livejournal.com]

I've seen her around. She's doing fine. Why?

[kindly-done.livejournal.com]

I thought she might not like it either, the way it looks and smells here.

She's been sleeping in my room for the past few weeks. At least, before the event. She'll probably come over tonight, and I'll ask her then.
