Does anyone know how to aid one to sleep. I don't feel well and every time I try to sleep... I keep having...

It doesn't matter. Does anyone know how to make me sleep?

[ He's feverish and sleep-deprived and okay maybe a little freaked out and panicky but he'd never admit that. ]

[Well, this was something that Jin Guangyao was very familiar with. He tended to have recurrent nightmares on a near-daily basis.]

Some chamomile tea can help one relax enough to drift. There are other herbs that can help but I would worry about taking them at your age.

How long have you had trouble? A-Ling?

[jinlingers]

I've already tried tea.

A couple days.

We will find a way to help you sleep, A-Ling. I know this has to be hard for you, but remember that I'm here. So, we'll find a way.

[jinlingers]

I know you're here.

[taintedpeony]

That is a while to not be able to sleep. It should be affecting all the other parts of your life.

I'll see what herbs I have available to help ease you in. I am sorry you are going through this A Ling.

[fierceprotector]

Which means that we'll do everything we can to get through this.

[ This is a familiar problem. ]

I have an incense that will help. I'll get a bundle of it ready. Where should I have it delivered?

Jin Ling! What's wrong? Where is your mother?

[jinlingers]

It's getting difficult to manage.

[ The issues he's having are far more severe than what he's been used to. ]

This isn't your fault.

[ This time anyway. ]

[jinlingers]

Mm.

[jinlingers]

[ Jin Ling is willing to try pretty much anything at this point. ]

Thank you.

[ And an address to the Jin residence that Jin Zixuan had left behind. ]

[jinlingers]

She's here at home...

I'm pretty sure I got cursed by this stupid horse head worm thing...

[fierceprotector]

We'll also try soup.

Action

[fated_dance]

[ Zishu had already been making more of those special incense sticks, so it's easy to gather a few, along with a few other options. So it doesn't take long before he arrives at the address, and knocks - basket at an elbow as he studies what he can of the residence as he waits. ]

[taintedpeony]

They can be. I sadly suffer from this ailment myself so I understand how it can be debilitating.

[He wouldn't be surprised if some of it was, with both his reaction to him the last time as well as what Jiang Wanyim had implied]

Still, I am sad that you are suffering through this regardless. I would love to help if you allow it..

[jinlingers]

[ Jin Ling guesses he's not surprised that Jin Guangyao might have trouble sleeping -- he has some not generous thoughts that come along with that. ]

It's worse than usual because of one of the stupid creatures here...

[ With the sound of hooves and all it's not hard to connect that this fever and the panic and inability to sleep that do compound some of his other issues are connected to the little stupid looking thing a couple days before. ]

[jinlingers]

Your soup is always good.

Did you know that jiujiu used to try and make it?

[fierceprotector]

He told me that he'd tried before. That it never came out the same.

[jinlingers]

[ The home had been fashioned in the style of Jin Ling's Lanling home, touches of Jiang purple in with the golds of the Jin Sect.

Jin Ling tiredly opens the door when the other knocks, Fairy at his heels. He's feverish and doesn't feel quite steady on his feet but he does his best to hide that. ]

Welcome.

[ Jin Ling greets him, bowing politely. ]

[jinlingers]

I think he liked trying. It was easier than asking him to tell me stories.

[taintedpeony]

[He wouldn't judge him for the unkind thoughts, they were after all mostly true. One had to compartmentalize a lot in order to do what was asked of him most of the time. He wished that the dreams wouldn't remind him that he was the person and not a knife.]

I see, that is understandable if it is a Yao perhaps the effect will wear off. But in case it doesn't it would be best to take care of it sooner than later.

I can have some tea and medicine set up for you if you want to meet or send someone to pick it up.

[fated_dance]

[ His eyes widen slightly before narrowing just as much at the state of the boy's appearance. Clearly unwell, beyond just lack of sleep. But he smiles at the polite bow and answers in kind. ]

Thank you. I brought a few other things to try as well.

[ Which now he's glad for. He gestures inside. ]

May I?

[ The dog is clearly a protector, he's not foolish enough to lightly chance intruding. ]

[fierceprotector]

If you ever want stories, I can give them to you.

[jinlingers]

I don't want to make you sad.

[jinlingers]

[ It's the fact that Jin Ling knows that he's not alone in this house that he answers the way he is about to. If he were alone he doesn't think he could face Jin Guangyao. ]

Can you bring it here?
