Sleep had been very peaceful for Roxy, save for a series of weird dreams that harkened her back to her arrival here. An explosion. Pain. Panic. Yet she was collected by friends and taken care of. Everything had turned out okay--better than okay. For a while she'd been sure this was hell. Another boring life on an island with no end in sight, no career to be had, just miles of water. Miles of space. Instead of all of that Roxy had found new friends and dreamed of them in her long slumber, though it only felt as if a night had passed. Maybe a quick cat nap. Roxy dreamed of Leif the most and sometimes moved in her sleep as her mind wandered off down delightful idealizations of their relationship from another romantic dinner under the stars to a dangerous game of Bite Me.

So today she woke up as she did any other day, although today she didn't feel as good about it. She felt rather sluggish as her mind stopped dreaming and started to rouse itself. Groggy. Roxy put a hand over her face and frowned, feeling her lips as she licked them. So dry. Maybe she didn't drink enough water the day before because she immediately thought she could be dehydrated. Soreness sank in. Hunger settled into her gut.

"Uh..." Roxy swallowed dryly and reached out for water from the night stand as her eyes flicked open and she squint against the dim light in the room. "Leif..?"

	Roxy hummed in agreement and then nodded. "I think so, yes. There can't be any good reason a person just falls asleep for such a long period of time. I was not sick, as far as I know. Considering others of the station have fallen to the same fate, however, it could just be the same trickery as the island. It's hard to say but I'd rather visit someone than not."

	Leif took out his phone and sent a quick text to Henry before putting it away and taking Roxy's hand. "When you're feeling up to it, we can go." He smiled. "Just to be safe, of course. I tried to make sure that you were in good condition." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She turned her hand over in his to squeeze his fingers. "Of course. Are you sure you're alright?" Roxy asked with a small but worrird smile. "I'm really well. I feel fine." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Leif looked at their hands for a moment before looking Roxy in the eye. "I have not been feeding as often as I should. Basically just enough to keep from going crazy." He sighed. "I need to do that." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She looked at him with worry and started to get up. "Well, go on then. You need to take care of yourself." Roxy moved around to kiss the back of his neck. "I'll take care of you later to make up for not being able to now." (Reply to this) (Parent)
