[F4A] You Need Sleep and I Need Your Lamp! - Moth Girl Busts Into Your Room [Fantasy] [Monster Girl] [Moth Girl] [Meet Cute] [Conversational] [Sweet] [Cute] a bit of [Comfort] as in [You need your rest] [Staying up together] [I need LAMP]

Spotting the glow from someone's room, you fly over there and force your way in, determined to find the source of the light (hopefully it's a lamp). In the process, you end up making a new human friend and decide to keep them company while they fall asleep.

[SFX: thumping on window/glass]

[muffled] Hey! Hey you! Open up! Come on, open this window! [SFX: thumping on window/glass]

[SFX: window sliding open]

Heyyyy~ [SFX: window sliding closed]

No wait! Please?

Yeah, just slide it on open. I'm not going to hurt you.

And scooch over. Let me lean on the windowsill. Come on.

Thank you~

So...wonderful night, isn't it?

What, no time for pleasantries?

Well, I saw the lights in your room. So I thought I'd flit on over and do some investigating. I really do like seeing the glow when it's all dark outside.

It *is* the second floor, I know~ Do you like it up here?

[whiny] Why are you asking me these boring questions? Who cares how I'm up here! Show me the lights!

[annoyed sigh] So persistent! Do you really have to know?

Don't you see my antennae? And this fuzzy boa action I've got around my neck? That's- it's part of me, by the way, don't pull on it. [chuckle]

[holding back excitement] Mhmm, see? And come over here. Look outside the window.

Don't worry, I'm not going to pull you out~ [giggle]

[excited] Yes! My wings! Aren't they beautiful?

[SFX: window sliding closed]

Nononono! Why do you keep trying to do that! Stop closing the window on me!

No I won't! I'm just an innocent little- [under your breath] ok maybe not so little- moth girl. [pleading] Don't shut me out, please?

Right? Very interesting. Do you like moths?

[mocking] Ooh, "state your business!" Very serious tonight, aren't we?

Don't you have time for some chit-chat with the cute girl at your window?

Ugh, fine. Like I said, I saw how bright it was in your room. And I wanted to check it out. So where is it?

Whatever was giving off that glow! Stop playing dumb!

[hungrily] Mhm. I need to see it.

[SFX: window sliding closed]

[pouty] No stop that! This window joke of yours is getting old!

I just need to take a quick look inside. That's all!

I won't go crazy and knock things over, what do you take me for?

Ok fair, I *am* a moth, but how about this? Come on, come a little bit closer~

[softly] Yeah, lean in real close to me~

[coy] You think I'm cute, don't you? I know you were looking at me like that.

So don't you want to...do something fun...and LEMME INTO YOUR FUCKIN' ROOM! [shriek-laugh] [SFX: some sort of ruckus/tumble?]

[heavy breathing] [a bit hysterical] So where is it? Where?! Where's the *lamp*?!

[SFX: some thuds and thumps]

I saw it earlier where did it GO?!

Wait noooo- Don't grab me! What are you doing!

No, stop it! I can't find the lamp! Let me find the lamp!

Ok! Ok. I'll calm down. Maybe. I still want to see where that light came from, though.

Why would you think I'll break it?

I'd never break it. Lamp, wherever you are, I love youuu~ I won't break youuu~

[small and whiny] No- but- noooo. [tearful]...lamp.


Hey, you've just been holding me. Are you, um...are you going to let go of me now?

Why not?

[shocked gasp] What mess?! I didn't make a mess!

Maybe when you *grabbed* me, I did!

That's not *my* fault! You shook a bunch of my scales off! They're all over the floor!

[smug] Yeahhhh. And now you might have them all over *you*~

No, they're not- they're not toxic! Why would you say that?

[scoff] So uninformed. I can't believe people still think that.

But let me go, ok? I don't need you messing up my wings more than you have.

I'm only teasing. [coy] It will take a lot more than an *intimate squeeze* to hurt me~

[giggle] Stop getting flustered and let me go!

I promise I'll be good. [under your breath] If you show me where the lamp is.

I'm kidding, I'm kidding! Sort of.

Just show me the light!

Yes, I *am* insistent! Glad you noticed! So it's no use fighting me on this!

[squeal] Thank you!

[softly, excited] Ok, ok, I'll be quiet. [quiet squeal]


Wait, what? That's all it was? Your computer?!

BOOOOO! That's not a real lamp! And why is it so bright anyways? Oh and *thirdly*, why did you have it on so late at night?

What are you talking about "not so late"? I'm usually super active at this time, so that should tell you something about your sleeping habits.

We're not *all* nocturnal. My kind, yes. And most others. But not all.

Right? I can tell you a whole lot more if you're really interested in- wait a minute.

Nice try, you~ You probably think you're so slick, but I'm not as distractible as I seem.

But, um, switch your computer off, ok? We don't need it right now.

No, not because of *that*! I'm trying to tell you about how it's bad for you!

Exactly! And we don't need...to see...all of those pretty...glowing...lights...

Hm?! I, uh...what?

What are you talking about?

No, just switch it off already!

Well, I'd still like to see *something*. Not that, though. Why, do you have an actual lamp to show me?

[gasp] Then go get it! [sweetly] Please?

I've been sitting here *so* well-behaved this entire time! I said I was going to be good! [overly sweet] Do you still not trust me?

Wow. Cutting words for someone...going to their closet. [gasp] Are you fetching the lamp for me? Are you? [squeal]

[excited whisper] Ok, ok, sshh. Ssshhh! Quiet.


Wow, this looks like...this looks like a big rock.

A salt lamp, you say? Curious. How do I switch it on?

[SFX: lightswitch click]

[in awe] Wooow.

I love it.

Why would you keep this in your closet? It's so *beautiful*. I could stare into it forever.

You stare at your computer screen all day, don't you? How is that different from this?

No, my amazing lamp is much more interesting. *And* it's not bad for my eyes!

[absentmindedly] Hm? Say that again? I didn't hear you I was...looking at my salt lamp.

Maybe it *is* mine now~ But don't worry about that! What were you saying?

[whiny] I've only been staring at it for a couple of seconds! How can you ask me to leave already?

I'm calm now, aren't I? As long as I have this, I'm not going to run wild or anything.

How about you just get back into your bed over there. I'll sit quietly with my new lamp friend.

It's so late, how are you *not* tired?

Ah, I bet it's that computer of yours, isn't it?

Sure, sure. So what is it, you stay up all night playing videogames? Watching movies? Looking at...*other* stuff? [giggle]

Well, whatever your reasons, it's not the greatest idea.

For starters, you know you need your rest. But also, you keep doing this and you'll have a lot more moth girls coming to visit you at night. [gasp] Or wait, is that what you're aiming for? Some cute, fuzzy moth girls to keep you company?

Ok, rude! Do you really want me gone?

[whiny] Whyyy?

See? You *do* want to go to bed! Why did you say you weren't tired?

It'll be fine! I'm not going to steal anything, I swear. I only came here to meet my new friend.

[coy] I dunno, *am* I talking about the lamp? Or someone else?

Mhm. So come on, possible new friend. Hurry up and get under the covers.

As long as I can hold this lamp, you're not going to convince me to leave.

I'll be sitting right by the window, don't even give me a second thought.

Ooh, softening up, are we?

Want me to stay up with you for a while?

I'll be here staring at my lamp, so it's no problem.

[in awe] No, look at it. It's so pretty and warm. Why would you want to look at your computer screen all the time when you have *this*.

[chuckle] So you've told me.

But you know...I was right earlier.

About you staying up so late. You know it's not good for you. It's good for *me*, because I should be awake at this time, but why do you do it?


That's...fair. Maybe not *wise*, but I can see why you'd want to stay up. Do you get enough sleep, at least?

Ok, looking less fair now.

No, I'm not trying to guilt you! All I'm saying is...less late night distractions, hear me?

[laughs] Right? Pretty ironic coming from someone who came bursting into your room in the early hours of the morning.

Well, I *want* to apologise, but that will make it seem like I shouldn't have done it.

That's just your late night hysteria talking. You're glad I'm here, don't lie~

[like you would talk to a baby] And *you're* glad I'm here too, aren't you?

I was talking to my new lamp friend, thank you very much!

Maybe you should stop worrying about us and focus on sleeping, hm?

[tender] I'll be right here.

I know you didn't say it, but I can tell you'd like the company.

Yeah, maybe that's one good thing that came of your terrible sleeping habits.

Uh, you met *me*! Obviously!

[smug] Sure~ The sleepier you get, the less convincing you sound. That feistiness isn't going to last.

Can you get to sleep with this light on?

Ah. I'll cover it up a bit. Is that better?

Great.

I won't take it with me, don't worry.

I'll let myself out when it gets lighter. Enough with the questions now, ok? Get some rest.

[soft giggle] Very honest when you're tired, huh? It was nice meeting you too.

Mhm. Sleep tight.
