Trope: Delirious chaos | Logic has left the chat | Sleep was never invited

*****
"I haven't blinked in 45 minutes."

*****

The performance ended at 2:00 AM.
The dorm welcomed them at 3:30 AM.
The energy drinks wore off at 3:32 AM.

By 4:00 AM, seven members were still upright through sheer spite.

EJ rubbed his eyes and yawned. "Alright. Let's sleep—"

"Too late," Nicholas said solemnly, eyes wide and haunted. "We've passed the threshold."

Taki, horizontal on the couch: "I haven't blinked in 45 minutes."

Yuma giggled into a bowl of cereal.

There was no milk in it.

☕ 4:03 AM — Sanity: 0 | Sugar Intake: Dangerous

Yuma is lying on the floor. Face down. Eating dry cereal straight from the box with no hands.

Yuma (muffled): "If I stop chewing, I die."

Jo is speaking fluent nonsense into a walkie-talkie that isn't turned on.

Jo: "Agent Breadstick, the ducks have landed. Repeat, the ducks are in formation."

Taki is sprinting laps around the dorm in socks yelling, "I AM SPEED," while holding two frozen waffles.

🔥 4:16 AM — The Maki-Lamp Incident

Maki is curled around the living room lamp like it's his emotional support boyfriend.

Maki: "He's warm and listens to me. Unlike SOME people."

Fuma: "Are you talking to a lamp again?"

Maki (hissing): "Don't speak to Lumière like that."

The lamp blinks.

Maki: "HE BLUSHED."

🧠 4:23 AM — Nicholas and EJ Invent Philosophy (Again)

EJ: "What if sleep isn't real? What if we've just been closing our eyes and pretending?"

Nicholas, holding a banana like a microphone: "The curve... is a metaphor for life."

EJ: "Bananas are just yellow anxiety in a peel."

Nicholas nods. "I want that tattooed."

🪞 4:31 AM — Fuma Meets "Minjun" Again

Fuma walks past the hallway mirror.

Freezes.

Stares at his own reflection for a solid 45 seconds.

Fuma: "Who's that."

Jo (from the kitchen): "It's Minjun, our new trainee."

Fuma: "He looks strong. I fear him."

Fuma bows. The mirror bows back.

Fuma: "He's polite."

🎤 4:44 AM — Jo Declares War (on Gravity)

Jo climbs onto the counter with a frying pan and no agenda.

Jo: "I'm holding this hostage unless someone gives me a juice box."

Taki (out of breath): "You were holding me hostage two minutes ago."

Yuma, still on the floor, screams into a pillow: "THE FLOOR IS SOFT. THE AIR IS LOUD."

🥴 4:55 AM — K Appears, Immediately Regrets It

K walks in, freshly showered, ready to tell everyone to sleep.

Instead, he sees:

Harua singing the national anthem to a plant.

Nicholas trying to peel a hard-boiled egg with a spoon and crying about it.

Jo rubbing two bananas together "to summon power."

Maki still spooning the lamp.

K: "...I'm going back to bed."

Taki (sliding across the floor on his stomach): "NO LEADER, STAY WITH US—"

🧃 5:04 AM — Emergency Snack Break (aka Feeding Gremlins)

Maki eats whipped cream from the can. Straight.

Yuma chugs chocolate syrup.

Fuma tries to microwave peanut butter and tells everyone it's "for science."

EJ eats a spoon of instant coffee powder and ascends to another plane.

EJ (glitching): "I can see sounds."

📢 5:18 AM — The Impromptu Group Song

Jo: "We should write a song about this."

Nicholas: "Yes. Title: 'Banana of Destiny.'"

Harua (off-key): "Soup in my soul, I'm losing control—"

Fuma: "Let Lumière do the light effects."

Yuma: screaming harmonies
Taki: doing backup vocals by honking like a goose
EJ: beatboxing with a spoon

K: audibly praying in the background

🧎 5:35 AM — They Try Meditation. It Gets Weird.

Jo leads a "mindfulness moment."

Jo (chanting): "Breathe in the chaos. Exhale the capitalism."

Harua: "I saw my third grade gym teacher in my mind's eye."

Nicholas: "I met my past life. He was also tired."

Maki: "My lamp blinked once for yes."

Yuma: "My brain just played the Windows error sound."

🧟 6:00 AM — The Collapse

One by one, they fall:

Jo face-down on the stove.

Taki under the kitchen table, mumbling, "I am bread."

Maki wrapped in curtains like a burrito.

Harua inside a laundry basket.

Nicholas curled around his banana.

Yuma asleep in the sink.

Fuma on the floor, still suspiciously watching the mirror.

EJ passed out on top of the fridge, because of course he is.

K covers them all with blankets. Whispers a prayer. Sits on the couch. Stares into the abyss.

K: "I should've let them nap."

🎬 8:00 AM — Manager Walk-In

Manager opens the dorm door.

Pauses.

Closes it again.

Manager (to himself): "Nope. Not my business today."

📝 End Credits: The Group Chat Later That Day

Nicholas: did i actually talk about banana theory or was that a fever dream
EJ: you cried over it
Jo: where's my walkie-talkie
Harua: my throat hurts. did i scream?
Fuma: i think Minjun stole my towel
Yuma: i have syrup in my sock
Maki: Lumière said we were iconic
K: sleep. now. or i'm calling HR.

Moral of the story?

Never underestimate the power of a broken sleep schedule.
And do NOT trust a boy in love with a lamp.
