To Dreamland!

If there was one bun, in all of the burrows, that knew how to party until she regretted everything in the morning, then that was the lead singer of The Fifth Circle, the one and only Minerva.

She spent all of Mochi Moon drinking and eating to her heart’s content, but as she lazily slept on her bed, waking up every now and then, her body realized she was going to have one hell of a day getting back to normal. Especially when every time that she opened her eyes, her head split and she had to burrow deeper into her bed.

The only saving grace was the warm body next to her, someone she quickly scooped up into her arms. She groaned softly, “Baby,” as she nuzzled against his head and tried to continue sleeping.

Silas had joined her for Mochi Moon and unfortunately, he seemed to be doing the same as her. It didn’t help that he was weak to his girlfriend’s encouraging and that he always had the best time when she followed her around.

He stirred awake, his eyes blinking tiredly as he realized he was trapped in Minerva’s arms. “Huh?” He mumbled, trying to bury his head into her chest. It was too early to be awake after the night they had, even if it was nearing the afternoon instead of when the burrows turned to day.

“Should have stopped me,” Minerva complained, comforted by the weight in her arms. She had a feeling this would be the kind of day where she ordered food for them later and just never left her bed.

Silas huffed, “Didn’t stop me.” Not that he thought for a second she would, besides there were worse things than spending the day sleeping in her arms. Besides, it was one of her rare days off, he didn’t think she had much to complain about at that point. They would be lazy all they wanted.

Which they were, as the pair quieted down and slipped back into sleep for a few more hours. It was hard not to, their heads ached and Minerva’s apartment had just enough of a chill that they needed to cuddle. That was the prime sleeping conditions for the two dolls, together and warm in their own world.

Even if that world didn’t last forever as Silas was the one to slowly wake this time, his voice muffled for a moment by Minerva’s chest. “Hmm.”

He weakly pushed away, just enough to speak, “Minerva… where’s the, where’s your wulvens?”

It took Minerva a few more moments to be coherent enough to answer, “Uh, oh, they’re in the bed with us. Like feel with your tail, they’re somewhere.” Even if they weren’t, there wasn’t a chance she was getting up to check.

“What if they got outside,” Silas whispered, his eyes still fighting to stay open. He never realized mixing mochi and alcohol would be a powerful sleep aid. It made him want to do nothing forever. Well nothing if that meant Minerva also was beside him, he didn’t think he’d enjoy this alone.

Minerva lazily smooched the top of his head as she wrapped her blankets tighter around them. “They’re not gonna get outside, it’s fine.” She thought so at least, she wasn’t going to mention that Beast knew how to break open the front door.

From how warm she felt, she knew there was no cold air getting in so no pet breaking doors. “Let’s just go back to sleep.”

Silas tried to argue weakly, “But we’ve been asleep all day, shouldn’t we get up?”

“Do you want to?”

Silas was silent for a few seconds, before he whined and snuggled even closer to Minerva, “No I don’t want to.” It felt too good to sleep, to get away from the bright lights and dream next to his favorite person.

Minerva chuckled, almost inaudible, “Thought so, our bodies just need more sleep.” And food eventually, but from the amount of mochi they had last night, food was the last thing on her mind and probably would be for a while. She would always regret that twenty-first mochi, especially after her sixth drink that night.

But that was last night Minerva’s problem.

“Just go back to bed, baby,” Minerva mumbled, hugging him close.

Silas couldn’t argue with that logic, not when he was quickly following her into sleep. Who cared about the day? They could just sleep until they both felt better.

It didn’t take but a few seconds for the pair to succumb to sleep once again, pressed together as they were lost to the land of dreams. But no matter what their dreams, they were always beside each other. Ready to have another adventure even if it made following each other into more chaos.

It was Mochi Moon, they were allowed to be a little wild.
