Where is the line

*Aranea* · 03-03-2021, 08:39 PM

Not like the rest of the castle knew, but Aranea had struggled with insomnia for most of her life. Only within the last few years did she suffer through nightmares that made nights go by harder, enough to make her want to fight sleep either way but it was impossible to stay awake for all eternity. She made a deal of making sure no one knew that she was exhausted, or had become accustomed to it. She stayed in her room most nights while not wanting to wake the rest of her pack mates on noisy strolls through the castle. Somehow time would go by quick and also not fast enough at the same time.

Ulric’s quiet voice was alarming, only not expecting him or anyone to come looking for her this late at night. A thought across her mind that they pulled someone from outside that needed aide, only she had a sense that wasn’t the case because it probably would have appeared more urgent. "Ulric? You can come in." she was sitting along the back wall while her gaze was pulled from her own beach-side window to greet his voice, and allowing him to enter regardless of what intentions he may have had.

If Ulric wanted to join beside her that was fine, she would look out towards the beach with a slight breeze that pulled through the window and doorway, her fur prickled through a shiver of the winter that never seemed to end. But maybe the blister is what helped keep her up at night as well. She expected Ulric had come to get some more off his chest, or even just be in the presence of someone else, she understood while the night was late. Though she would only wait for his voice or movement without questioning, she wasn’t one to talk about the importance of sleep.
