[When the video starts, Link's standing outside his building, staring up at the snow. He looks a little worried at it all, and pulls his tunic around himself tighter. He looks over at the COMP, and frowns.]

[His voice is very quiet when he speaks.]

What do you do when you can't sleep? Or when you have nightmares? I'm not sure what to do.

Don't you organics have medications for this kind of thing?

[Video]

[nofairy]

Ah? Probably... I don't know where to find an herbalist here though.

[universebeware]

Well, if you can't sleep, then you've got the time to look.

[sky_child]

...you've been having bad dreams?

[ video ]

[nofairy]

... Yeah. I try not to bother people about it, though.

[oathofdevotion]

I usually have a warm cup of milk. Sometimes talking to someone or singing myself to sleep works too.

...are you alright, Link?

[nofairy]

I'll be okay. It's just hard to sleep sometimes when I start thinking about things too hard.

...

I go out to someplace where there's no people around and just look at the night sky. I usually find that that calms me down.

[video]

[nofairy]

Maybe I'll try that. There's a lot of people around everywhere here, though.

Take a sleeping aid. The small, blue pill.

[nofairy]

I don't have any.

[misery_hates_company]

Oh my. Troubles with bad dreams, deary? I've been looking for a good treatment for that myself. Perhaps you can help me determine whether my search has been futile or not.

[nofairy]

Yeah... and how can I help?

[hope_adjacent]

My mom used to make me some warm tea. Maybe that will help?

[nofairy]

That's a good idea. Thanks.

Meditation usually helps me. Or at least relaxes me enough I don't mind missing the sleep later.

[nofairy]

I don't... really know how to do that.

[dreamprotector]

Back home, I would go outside and watch the ocean.

[All things considered that's not really an option here though.]

Hot tea or milk work too, though.

[nofairy]

... The ocean's like a really big lake, right?

[He's never been there...]

Um... how do I heat those things up without making a fire?

[voice]

[whereibelong]

[Well... she can't say this doesn't hit close to home because that would be a lie]

If you can stay with friends, that's what helps me.

I don't know if yours are the same kind of nightamres as mine were but... my friend told me sometimes they go away on their own but he said it takes time.

[He also said sometimes they don't ever really go away entirely but that didn't seem like a good thing to bring up right then]

[voice]

[nofairy]

Maybe I'll ask big brother if he's okay with me coming over for the night.

... I hope they do. They're really scary.

[Voice]

[darkbaptist]

Meditation.

It can do wonders for the mind.

[Voice]

[nofairy]

How does it work?

[Voice]

[faustianphantom]

I drink warm milk.

[Voice]

[nofairy]

I don't think I can set up a campfire inside though...
