You would have shared but you didn't want to. That's hilarious. I don't blame you. Breakfast is often too early for sharing food.

[tacoshield]

I don't play about my food. Plus, I made it, I'm eating it. You want one, you find me before I start cooking.

[white_widow]

I wasn't arguing with you.
You say that like you start cooking at the same exact time every day.

[tacoshield]

I cook in the morning. When I wake up. Stop sleeping in so late and you might get some.

[white_widow]

Currently my choices are sleeping in or live on an hour a night at best, so I am going to have to pass on your breakfast offer.

[tacoshield]

Your loss. I like the mornings.

[white_widow]

I like the mornings too, but I like not being so sleep-deprived I hallucinate more.

[tacoshield]

Military turns almost every person into a morning person. Can't really get around it.

[white_widow]

Bizarrely, so did the shadow Russian covert ops organization. Who would have thought living through all of that would lead to insomnia now? Crazy.

[tacoshield]

How bad are your nightmares?

[white_widow]

The nightmares are bad. The time spent laying there with my thoughts while I am waiting to fall asleep is worse.

[tacoshield]

I don't try and fall asleep afterward. I just get up and do something else.

[white_widow]

After nightmares or after the stupid brain spiral?

[tacoshield]

After the nightmares. So I don't have to deal with the brain spiral.

[white_widow]

Ah. I meant the brain spiral that happens before I fall asleep at all.
After nightmares I have to move around a bit, too.

[tacoshield]

I don't really have an answer to before. Hard to avoid that.

[white_widow]

Yeah, me either. I can confirm that vodka is a bad answer. Lullabies are actually still pretty good even as an adult, but a bit much to ask for every night. If I come up with anything more permanent as a solution, I will let you know.

[tacoshield]

Vodka won't work for me. I doubt lullabies would either. Getting close to just asking Barnes to knock me out.

[white_widow]

I did not think lullabies would work for me either, it was very surprising.

I don't think Bucky would say yes. If you really do want to be made unconscious, though, I can do that. Or Alexei would probably be willing.

[tacoshield]

I don't want Alexei to do it. He'd probably try and tell me a story and I'd die of boredom.

[white_widow]

That's a fair point. Although maybe it would just put you in a nice boredom coma.

[tacoshield]

Pass. I am not in the mood for more Red Guardian stories. I've known the guy for like ten minutes and I think I've heard them all.

[white_widow]

Don't worry, soon enough he will make up new, even more outlandish ones.

[tacoshield]

Is any of what he says true?

[white_widow]

I hate to admit it, but most of his stories about when I was little are true.
