*she isn’t able to even close her eyes for more than a second*
(Sighs, sitting up restlessly)
*she is staring into the couch*
(After a long while)
… You’re still awake, aren’t you?
*she waits a couple of seconds to respond* Y-yeah…
I know you’ve had a rough day, but… please try and relax enough to get some sleep… you’ll feel a lot better in the morning…
I…don’t know if I can…
Do you think a musical serenade would help you get to sleep?
No…

(Sighs, sitting up restlessly)
*she is staring into the couch*
Yeah…*she continued staring at the ceiling*
What’s wrong? Why are you so… far-off?
It’s nothing…
Nothing’s ever nothing… You can talk to me, Taffy!
It’s nothing…night..*she turned her back to Brass*
.. Promise me you’re not just going to run off before I wake up…
I promise…
(Smiles) Good… good night, then?
Yeah…night…
(Lays back, not quite able to sleep, but remaining silent)
*she isn’t able to even close her eyes for more than a second*
Yeah…*she continued staring at the ceiling*

Would…you please hold me?
U-um… Taffy… I really can’t fall asleep like that… Doomguy would get the wrong impression, and we just had a bad fight the other night… What I’ll do, though, I’ll get a sleeping bag, I’ll be right here on the floor next to you, okay?
*she whimpers then sighs* F-fine…
(Trots up the stairs and recovers a sleeping bag and a few pillows before returning)
*she is staring straight up at the ceiling hardly blinking*
(Smiles gently at her) I’ll help you get your life back on track! (Spreads her sleeping bag next to the couch and arranges her pillows before slipping in)
Yeah…*she continued staring at the ceiling*
