	What, did you think we had enough of being the only ones awake and went back to sleep? There are still a lot of people to move. Fuck I'm glad you're up. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	vervacious 2009-09-12 10:24 am UTC (link)
	No, I just didn't know if maybe something decided to make you go back to sleep. I guess we don't know what the hell is going on here? Same here. We thought you'd gone missing. You're okay right? Relatively, I mean. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As far as we know, when you're up, you're up. And when you're asleep, you're...I don't know. Dreaming normal life, I guess. There's nothing on campus that's out of the ordinary. Believe me, I patrolled. ~~Not in the~~ ~~I'm fine.~~ Nico and Prince and Charlie are still asleep. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Christ. If this is some kind of attack it seems sort of pointless, doesn't it? No one even moved when I tried to wake them up, they're easy targets, but aside from a few people who look like they hit their heads going down nothing seems to be wrong with them. It doesn't make sense. I've got nothing from the fence, no outside interference as far as I can tell. No one has come or gone for a while.

Same with Adrien and Abby. We'll take care of them all until they wake up, King. They'll be fine.

	And if they wanted to attack us while we were all down, we wouldn't be awake now. I don't understand it either. Maybe some unnamed forces thought we needed a little beauty sleep, har har. We've been moving people to their beds and stuff. I put you on the couch, hope that was alright. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It just seems pointless and if I never have such a fucking vivid and messed up dream again in my life it'll be too soon. This school? Needing beauty sleep? Good thinking. I'll get some stretchers from the medlab to help out, it'll go a bit faster that way. Of course it's alright, thanks for doing that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You had a dream too? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vervacious 2009-09-12 11:00 am UTC (link)
	Uh. Yeah. It didn't even seem like a dream at first. It was so real. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Are you okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	King. vervacious 2009-09-12 11:07 am UTC (link)
	Yes. I mean no, not really. But I will be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Luce. frick_frack 2009-09-12 11:07 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, I know. We can just agree not to talk about it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	King. vervacious 2009-09-12 11:11 am UTC (link)
	Agreed. Unless you want to talk about it in which case I'll listen, but you knew I'd say that anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I really don't want to fall apart right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	King. vervacious 2009-09-12 11:21 am UTC (link)
	Okay. We'll be fine. Besides we have a crisis to handle and it looks like it's up to us for the time being. Did you see anyone who looked like they might need medical attention? I can grab a first aid kit and patch people up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Great. Everyone's wellbeing is up to us, that's so reassuringly fantastic.

I didn't. ~~I already checked Prince~~ I think the only problem we're really going to have is dehydration and hunger. Somehow we've been able to survive all this time asleep but I was in bad shape when I woke up. I don't know if we can make people drink or eat but maybe there are some IVs that we can try to figure out? With any luck, Ms. Pryor or Val will wake up next.

You know, I think I dreamed that I went to the first week of orientation. How fucked am I, do you think?

We can handle this.

Okay good. It seems like if you get injured in the dreams it doesn't come out on this end, ~~or I'd be dead~~ so that's something. Good idea with the IVs, if we can even get some saline into people that would be a start. How long have you been awake?

You're totally fucked, obviously. Then again that means I am too. I'm pretty sure I dreamed up a whole project in the studio.

I know we can. But if we fuck it up, everyone's going to blame us.

Guess what they say about dying in your dreams meaning that you die in real life isn't true. I was up on the 9th, I think. It's been a few days. Just me and Johnny at first.

Well, that's not so bad. You can start on it again. I definitely lost a few rolls of film that didn't actually happen and I guess I'm going to have to start doing what Laura does. Whenever the Professor wakes up or whatever.

Then we won't fuck it up. There's nothing more we can do than protect the rest of the school while they're out, getting them to their rooms is definitely the best thing to do. If we can clear the halls patrolling will be easier too. We've got this, King.

I don't know if I find that reassuring, but I probably should. Jesus. This is fucking creepy.

Yeah, the last I saw you it was in the studio going to develop some film and then you disappeared. Laura will probably be able to give you some good tips.

	Right. ~~I'm X-Factor now, I have to remember that~~ Did I mention I'm glad you're up? No kidding. Fuck. Nico's probably freaking out, isn't he? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You may have. I'm glad you're up too. If there was anyone else on the team I would want to have my back it's you.

A little bit, we left you a bunch of messages. Hopefully he'll come out of it soon and see that you're fine. I guess once we wake up here, we disappear from... wherever we were. Like a collective dream or something. Maybe this is Eudora finally coming through on her retarded threats.

	What, rather than a team leader or, uh, anyone who's been on X-Factor longer than me? Fuuuuuck. Want to try smothering her in her sleep and see if that wakes everyone all up? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	King. vervacious 2009-09-12 12:43 pm UTC (link)
	Yes. I trust you. Putting ideas in my head, very bad. Having trouble not finding her and drawing on her face at the very least as it is. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Luce. frick_frack 2009-09-13 03:11 am UTC (link)
	You too. She's not strong enough to do all this, I'm sure. Unfortunately. Can you help me move another bed into my room? I want Nico and Prince somewhere where I can watch both of them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	King. vervacious 2009-09-13 09:24 am UTC (link)
	As much as she would like us to believe she is, but you're right. Shame, I would love to blame something massive on her one of these days. Sure, no problem. I'll be right there. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'm so glad you're still awake. This is creepy as all hell. I just left the common room, on my way to the resident hall. Where are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	liarsden 2009-09-12 06:57 pm UTC (link)
	In the medlabs. Been downloading as much stuff as I can on how to take care of these people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vervacious 2009-09-12 10:52 pm UTC (link)
	Great idea, I know some first aid but nothing that will really help. I'm coming down there to get some strechers to help move people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	liarsden 2009-09-12 11:40 pm UTC (link)
	Sounds good. We need to figure out what it is that's makin people wake up, too. Maybe we can get them all up faster if we know. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	shrinkingviolet 2009-09-12 06:11 pm UTC (link)
	I wonder how long it's going to take everyone else to wake up. Because I'm not sure if things like starvation are going to start to be an issue. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	vervacious 2009-09-12 10:53 pm UTC (link)
	I'm glad you're up, Ms. Collins. King and I were thinking about something with IVs to hydrate people at least. How's Mr. Ford? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	photosynth 2009-09-13 03:09 am UTC (link)
	I'm here. Have you been able to account for everybody? I mean, I'm sure you have, but I'd rather ask and be completely sure than worry until I've taken a head count myself. ~~Oh god, I'm so glad you're all~~ (Reply to this) (Thread)

	frick_frack 2009-09-13 03:31 am UTC (link)
	Hey, welcome back to the land of the living. I don't think we've done a headcount yet. We've just been moving people onto couches and beds so they don't wake up on the floor. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	photosynth 2009-09-14 01:17 am UTC (link)
	Okay, that can be my job. I'll start making a list just in case somebody's asleep in the hedge maze or something, that way we'll know for sure that everybody's ~~okay~~ at least stable. Is anybody awake other than you, me, Luce, Laurie, and Johnny? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	frick_frack 2009-09-14 03:04 am UTC (link)
	Good idea. That's really smart. ~~And if anyone's really missing, then~~ ~~What do we do if~~ So far, that's it. We're all checking the journals and rooms regularly when we patrol though, just in case anyone wakes up and is looking for us. (Reply to this) (Parent)
