[ It's a very, very exhausted Xion who is now finally home safe and in bed after a long day. Being returned from a death penalty removal only to end up in a vicious fight with your once boyfriend can take a lot out of a girl

...Where did you go?

[He can't answer that last question without sounding..pretty odd.]

[Voice]

[poppetry]

... there was something I had to take care of. It's okay, though.

[Voice]

[my_safe_corner]

..Okay. [He won't pry..]

[Voice]

[poppetry]

It wasn't anything bad, promise. [ she smiles. ] How are you, Crona?

[mikangirl]

Kinda depends on what's keeping you awake. There's herbal remedies that can help you sleep, though you probably shouldn't rely on them all the time.

Barring that, I just try and keep busy. You pass out eventually.

[poppetry]

[ wait a minute.

wait a minute.

wait a minute. ]

.... Nami?! [ YOU'RE BACK SHE DID NOT KNOW ]

[...]

[mikangirl]

[OH YEAH. Derp. Sorry, Xion, she's still getting used to being back here. >>]

...hey. Got back a couple days ago.

I've found that chamomile tea can help at times, as can taking a warm bath. But if you discover something else that works, I'd like to know about it as well.

[Voice/Filtered]

[poppetry]

... I don't know if we have that kind of tea... maybe I can get some tomorrow. [ a quiet sigh. ] Hehe, I'll be sure to tell you. I can't believe I didn't ask a long time ago.

[ledbythewind]

Have you been having trouble sleeping for a while, Xion?

[That's what it sounds like to him, at least.]

[Voice/Filtered]

[poppetry]

Mmm... pretty much most of my life. I have trouble sleeping when there's a lot on my mind.

[ which is frequently. ]

[1week_wizard]

... Read. -Predictable answer.-

[poppetry]

[ ... oh patchy. hiii, patchy. Xion smiles a little. ]

What sort of things would you read?

[1week_wizard]

Well if I really want to put myself to sleep, I'll read textbooks in subjects I don't care for.

But I usually end up reading lighter fantasy stories. Fables and children's fairy tales.

[poppetry]

... fairy tales ... [ grin ] I actually have a book of those. But I find them pretty interesting, and I end up staying awake to read more! [ a laugh ]

Welcome back. [ There's a pause. She really did wonder where Xion had gone, but...it looked like when Sokka had asked, he hadn't gotten an answer (the thought of a filter will probably strike her later, but she hasn't thought of it right now). Maybe Xion didn't want to talk about it...?

Mrr. For now, she'll just concentrate on the question. ] Well...I don't really know a good way to get to sleep. I mean, I've been told that warm milk helps, but I don't know if it actually helps. I usually just...get up and find something to do until I feel like sleeping again. [ there's a hint of quiet, somewhat sheepish, laughter as she adds, ] But sometimes that doesn't work very well....

Fenimore! Hey. [ always someone she is happy to hear from. ] ... hmm, find something to do like what? [ a little curious, now. ]

[ voice / same filter ]

[xelhes]

...It depends, I guess. I've tried doing housework, but it's hard to find something that doesn't wake the others. It also makes it hard to sneak out to the kitchen. I, I mean, it's not like I go to eat or anything! [ most of the time. ] But...a change in scenery is nice.

I've worked on gifts before, though, since that would have to be done in my room. If it's for someone in the house, at least.

[ voice / same filter ]

[poppetry]

... [ a tiny laugh, due more to Fenimore's obvious "I didn't do it for THAT reason!!!" tactics. Oh Fenimore. ]

Gifts? Like what? [ curious. ]
