Sleep is for the Weak [Video]

[now_i_know]

[Catherine flips on her screen at... well... it's either really late at night or really early in the morning. Despite the ungodly hour, she seems as lively as ever.]

[This can't be right.]

Heeey~♪

Can somebody please spot me twenty bucks? I just had three of these Ballz Energy Drinks and they're great stuff! The thing is, though, I just drank my third one in th' past hour and they're just not working as good as they should. So I just need to borrow a little bit of dough, head over to the convenience store, and get me another twelve pack and I'll be golden.

And don't worry about payin' you guys back. I'm good for it, honest! I just need to study just a bit more of this exponents homework and then I'll be good. Oh, but I also gotta read up on The Great Gatsby. And maybe follow up on my *yawn* on that Cuban Missile crisis thing...

But since Martha sent it and open a video connection, she gets to see the difficulties of having metal fingers. She has to press numerous buttons to click the right one, fidget on the touch pad, fidget more with the touch pad, and finally after almost a minute of two of anguished effort...]

What's dis?

Oh, really?

[She fiddles with it a bit before admitting with a touch of defeat.]

Yeah, this'll be great... I'll definitely be sure to give it a go when I'm gonna try to get some sleep.

You should really go to sleep now, to be honest. You look, well... Awful.

[now_i_know]

[She gives a bemused chuckle.]

Yeah, well... what else is new?

[Though perhaps her own opinions of her self-worth isn't the... best. Yeeah.]

[no_girl]

I'm saying, as your friend, you need to get some sleep. Please? For me?

[now_i_know]

I appreciate the concern, but I'm fine, really.

This ain't nothin'. I can go on for another few hours, easy!

And I gotta lot of stuff to catch up on, y'know?
