[ The video feed comes on early, just after the morning greeting. Aidan is definitely looking worse for wear, perpetually stifling a yawn and doing what he can to drown himself in the first pot of coffee of the day. It's been a few rough nights since Euphie moved in and not for the reasons one may suspect. Or maybe exactly for the reasons one may suspect. ]

So, uhm... [ Clearing his throat. ] Anyone got any advice for stayin' awake when coffee don't cut it no more? I've tried cold showers, but uhm... I got a feelin' I'll give m'self a cold if I keep that up.

Anythin' would be helpful. Please.

If you're unable to stay awake, the pick-me-up you require is more sleep.

I did not intend to call your intelligence into question. However, extended use of stimulants is unlikely to improve your overall condition and very likely to carry its own set of detrimental side effects, in addition to those of sleep deprivation. Where there is a will, there is not always a way.

Over short periods of time, some find that meditation helps.

[ There's a pause as he bites into his lip, forcing politeness into his tone. This isn't how his mama raised him. ]

Meditation? Like... sittin' around hummin'?

The technique is somewhat more complex than that.

Unfortunately, I am not an expert in the matter.

Perhaps the library has resources that may help.
