Whee, through L's door before suspicious sounds can be registered or not.

"I might be a bit light headed. Over thirty hours without any sleep, and my general performance begins to suffer. Alcohol is compounding the problem."

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

Matt shuts the door and puts down his picnic basket.

"I think people are supposed to sleep, like, daily. Or nightly. Our bodies are probably built that way."

He puts his ear to the door.

"I'll go when I think it's safe. If that's okay?"

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"I do not think that is the case. If exposure to night and daylight were eliminated, I am not sure what natural sleeping patterns would be."

He just knows he prefers less of it.

"Perhaps we have adapted that way, what with constant exposure to said environment. I play music when sounds outside bother me."

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

"... I guess that makes sense." He spends enough nights sitting up gaming, after all. "But I dunno, I usually need to catch up pretty bad."

Matt stretches.

"French music?"

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"Sometimes."

He nods.

"Edith Piaf. Other things."

"I don't think I know any of her stuff," Matt says, sounding almost apologetic. He pushes one side of his goggles up, briefly, to rub at an eye.

He's still hovering at the door, half-listening.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"You probably do, you just do not know that you do?"

He crosses immediately to the computer to put some on. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqTLqRFKjAU)

"... that does sound kind of familiar," Matt admits. It's not really his sort of thing, but it's nice.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"And 'La Vie en Rose.'"

He turns it off, anyways. It's too late to play anything. Back to the couch, for him.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

"Mind if I sit down?"

He'll be off in a few minutes, really. He doesn't want to be stuck in his own room if Near and Mello are - well.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"Please, yes, do."

He doesn't mind at all.

"I used to active-dream, you know."

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

Matt drops heavily onto the sofa, yawning a little.

"Active dream? Like... while you were doing stuff?"

Mello had mentioned something like that, hadn't he? His memory is a little fuzzy right now.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"People use the phrase for different things, but it's what Watari called being able to tell when you were dreaming. If you knew it was not real, you could..."

He wiggles his fingers expressively, and curls up, slipping down the couch a little, to rest his cheek against the fabric.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

"Oh - like, lucid dreaming? That happened to me once. It was pretty cool." He smiles. "I went flying."

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"Lucid dreaming."

He sighs.

"I went to explore the bottom of the sea. Have you always liked flying sorts of things?"

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

"I guess. I never really thought about it. I like fast stuff, though... couldn't wait to learn to drive." He stretches. "Did you find anything cool? In the sea."

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"Sunken pirate ships."

A little smile.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

Matt smiles too, resting his head back against the couch. "That's cool. Pirates are..." yaaawn, "pirates are cool. I didn't really find anything when I went flying. I think I went over a volcano, though..."

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

L nods.

Mostly, he's just nodding off, though. Matt may notice that his companion's eyes are closed.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

After a moment Matt does look over, and smiles. He'll go once L's asleep. It'd suck to wake him.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

It doesn't take long. Eventually, with a little sigh, he curls up a little tighter.

Unsurprisingly, he sleeps with a thumb at the corner of his mouth, limbs all tucked in.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

What he's going to do, Matt decides, is pick L up and put him on the bed. He'll be more comfortable there. There's more space. And he probably already falls asleep on chairs more often than he should.

He'll do it any minute now.

He just needs to... be a bit more awake, so he doesn't drop him, or...

Matt shifts, with a muffled sound of his own, turns on the sofa and falls asleep.
