If I saw Coach Z popping out from a dark hallway I’d scream too

i fear that one day i’ll fall into obsolescence and nobody will care about me anymore. everyone will move on to newer and greater things and i’ll be forgotten, left in the dust alone with nobody to love me anymore.

Oof this one is a good one. I suffer from pretty bad nightmares myself. So LETS GO. 

Boris Habit

• When Boris has nightmares he moves a lot. He’ll shoot up in bed, but not before thoroughly tossing the sheets around in his panic. He kicks his legs a lot too, almost like he’s trying to run. 

• This of course, wake you up, and you’re quick to lean over and wrap your arms sleepily but securely around Boris, who is trying to catch his breath. 

• You whisper softly to him, words of assurance. “You’re safe, I’m here, we’re here, I got you, nothing bad is happening, I will keep you safe.” Stuff like that, just softly and so full of warmth. 

• Once he like, calms down a tiny bit he reches over and just higs you right back, a little too tight, but you don’t mind. Whatever will help him. 

• You finally manage to get him to lay down again, you both wrapped up in each others arms as you gebtly plant kisses on his face and continue to whisper to him until he lulls back of to sleep, you right behind him. 

Kamal Bora

• Kamal doesn’t move really during nightmares, but he makes noises. He whimpers, might say a couple words, scrunch up his face. 

• This wakes you slwoly, and it takes you a moment to realize what’s happening. Once you do, you turn towards him and gently try to rock him awake with a soft repeating of him name. 

• After a moment of that, his noises get a little more rapid until his eyes snap open and he gasps slightly. He turns his head quickly to face yours and you try your best to just smile comfortingly. 

• He’s a little embaressed that he woke you, trying to laugh it off and say he’s fine, but you reach out to cup his cheek gently and kiss his forehead. He leans into the feeling and reaches out to hold you. 

• You gently pet his hair and assure him you’re glad you’re awake so you can remind him he’s okay, and that you’re here for him. He continues to hold you close as you pet his hair and kiss his nose and he gently goes back to sleep. 

Parsley Botch 

• So Parsley is the opposite spectrum of Boris. He wakes up, seemingly normal. He sits up slowly, a weird kind of glaze in his eyes. He just kinda waits for you to wake up. 

• When you do eventually wake up, everything seems normal. You tell him good morning and he just goes “yeah...” and that’s you’re first sign somethings off. You sit up and kiss him on the cheek but he doesn’t seem, all there?

• He’s got this far off look and you ask him if he’s okay, and he turns to look at you as if things are slowly coming into focus? “Yeah, uh, just had a.... a nightmare?” 

• Ah, that makes sense. You reach for his hand and grab it, squeezing gently. You lean against his side. He just needs to be grounded, you remember. Sometimes after a nightmare, he just, forgets what parts aren’t real. 

he deserves it ngl
