the fell asleep on meme!

"i just need to rest my eyes"

Someone, whether it be a friend or a total stranger, has fallen asleep on you wherever you happen to be; you are a rather comfortable pillow to them.

Do you let them sleep or abruptly wake them up?

[It wasn't Merida's fault. They found that bag of flour all on their own.]

Ah. Mum?

[Having one's mum slumped over on you mid lesson is a wee bit awkward, though Merida's doing her best to play it off.

Maybe...she can sneak...away...so carefully...]

[bearingup]

[ Elinor makes a sleepy noise, but it seems like she's coming around.

Slowly. ]

What is it, Merida...?

[ Her brain is still trying to catch up with the rest of her, apparently. ]

[wonmyownhand]

[Rats. No sneaking away, or at least -- not yet.]

I think yer a wee bit sleepy, mum.

[bearingup]

[ Not just yet. Sorry Merida. Elinor finally sits up and tries to clear her eyes. ]

Oh - Oh, dear. I do seem to have fallen asleep you, haven't I?

[ Elinor laughs - well, this is a bit awkward. ]

Here I am trying to teach you something and I can't even stay awake myself.

[ Because really, it's usually Merida who's falling asleep during these sorts of things. ]

[wonmyownhand]

[No kidding, mumsy dearest. Merida is giving a bit of a side-eye, all while fidgeting.]

Well. Let's take a break then. Sounds good? Sounds good.

[Scrambling to stand up.]

[bearingup]

That might be -

[ Her expression goes a bit flat as she notes Merida's hasty attempt to escape. ]

- for the best. Do try to practice though.

[ She's giving her a toned down version of the The Look. ]

[wonmyownhand]

[...She's looking far too eager isn't she. Time to modify her tactics.]

Ach, of course mum -- who would I be, without a bit of practice in the day? [This smile, it's sincere. Isn't it? It is.]

[bearingup]

I'm going to get some rest -

[ If she thinks she's getting off that easy, she has another thing coming. ]

- but we'll pick this up again tomorrow morning, bright and early.

[wonmyownhand]

[Almost, almost--]

Muuuummm--

[Groooooan.]

It's all a part of learning how to be a queen in your own right one day, Merida. You'll survive an hour or two of needlework with your mother.

[ No use complaining about it. ]

[wonmyownhand]

[So. Much. Grumbling.]

I hate needlework, always stickin' my fingers...

This from the girl who's always riding off to shoot at targets?
