YOU MAY BE A LOVER BUT YOU AIN'T NO DANCER

HELTER SKELTER

[Well, Champions, it certainly does look like you're trapped here.

There's limited food and limited supplies... and while there's a limited number of you, there's certainly too many of you for what you've got on hand. Never mind the whole deal that you've been kidnapped and shoved into someone else's house. Like, who even does that?

And all to "send a message," besides. Whatever that even means.

Regardless, things aren't going to change by just sitting and moping around. You're here until your captor decides he's done with you, so while there's no guarantee that acting won't just make things worse, it's got to be at least a little better than this.

Right?]

[As Inaba starts talking about powers, she'll hear some sleepy mumbling from behind the couch.]

...Oh. Umm, they listed those? And here I thought that really was just a dream...

[...Did. Did he really just curl up and go to sleep back there Nanaki please]

[dereban]

App--

[ And then he goes back to sleep. ]

Oi, seriously?

[narcoolepsysensei]

Hmmmm?

[He cracks open one eye to look up at the top of the couch, if she decides to peer over.]

Bed space is limited, and it seemed like a waste to steal perfectly good seating from someone who might actually use it.

[That's a terrible reason for choosing to crawl behind the couch, but okay?]

Umm, is it a problem?

[dereban]

Falling asleep like that at random is an issue, however.

[ She answers rather flatly with a bit of a put upon sigh. ]

[narcoolepsysensei]

Is it...

[He scoots his way out from behind the couch and sits up. ...Well, he's flopping against the arm of the couch, but it's something.

He yawns.]

I've been told I have a sort of sleep disorder. I suppose it can't be helped.

[dereban]

A sleep disorder?

[ That certainly is unhelpful in a lot of ways. ] That really is unfortunate.

[narcoolepsysensei]

Umm, something like narcolepsy.

Or so I'm told.

[dereban]

Narcolepsy, huh. . . yeah, that's definitely not great in a situation like this.

[narcoolepsysensei]

It is what it is.

[He doesn't seem concerned, at any rate.]

It's to be expected, so I've been told. When a species has their neurological advancement so sped up, there are bound to be disorders that crop up.

It doesn't hold me back from my work, so I don't really mind.

[dereban]

I suppose that's true, but not a lot of jobs would be OK with that. . .

[narcoolepsysensei]

I'm a math teacher at a high school. So long as the students perform well on their tests, it's fine.

[dereban]

. . . don't you actually have to teach, though?

[???????]

[ why is she suddenly dealing with incompetent teachers again ]

[narcoolepsysensei]

I do. They just have to wake me up sometimes,

is

all...

[...Oh no.]

[dereban]

Uh. . .

[ just going to attempt clapping her hands in front of his face in an attempt to wake him up ]

[narcoolepsysensei]

Hmm...? Oh! Oh. I'm up.

[...Welp. Evidence it works???]

[dereban]

. . . I did not expect that to work.

[narcoolepsysensei]

It happens often enough in class that I'm used to it.

[...Nanaki, you probably shouldn't be smiling about this.]

[dereban]

. . .

[ A part of her wants to sigh, honestly. ]

How often?
