A...scientist? Huh. Anna supposed that was a fitting job for Sarah. She was really smart. She'd also kept mentioning doing research on Anna's powers, so it made sense for her to be a scientist. She wondered briefly what kinds of things Sarah was inventing, picturing her in a long white coat mixing mysterious bubbling liquids in a big laboratory. That...probably wasn't what she did. Anna didn't know much about inventing things.

Anna nodded at her question, "Yeah, I work part time on the weekends at a club called Siren's Song." She continued to tell Sarah about how she'd been running from a bunch of creepy guys when she'd ducked into the club and ended up befriending the owner, who was a siren herself. "So, she now has me singing on Friday and Saturday nights every week. I get to wear these really fancy dresses and sometimes she lets me add piano or harp into my set. It's a lot of fun." She stifled a yawn. Sleep was starting to consume her again.​

Siren's Song? Sarah hadn't heard of that place yet, but that's not surprising since she rarely drove around the city. Only places she frequented was a restaurant and the park. Although she was initially worried that Anna might have been working in one of those strip clubs, she was relieved to hear that she was a singer. As far as she knew however, that might still be the case, but at least Anna wasn't the one stripping.

Admittedly Anna had the body for it, but those places attracted unpleasant personalities, and having those kinds of people watching the girl just didn't sit well with Sarah. "As long as your boss isn't making you do anything you're uncomfortable with, then you should keep at it. You sound like you enjoy your job. That's good. I hope you won't be bothered if I listened to your singing there when you get back."

Anna laughed, then winced at the pain that spread through her ribs. "Miss Vanessa would never make me do anything I didn't want to do. She's very kind," Anna reassured her. She nodded eagerly at the idea of having Sarah come to see her perform. "I can get you in for free," she said. "I'd love to have you come and see one of my shows some time, when I'm better."

The nurse from earlier appeared with some more doses of morphine. After a few minutes of trying to continue her conversation with Sarah, Anna started to get pretty loopy. "You know...like...those flowers? The red ones. What are those called again? You know. Like...the ones that guys give to girls when they like them. I can't...remember the name." Her eyelids felt heavy. She was fighting to stay awake. Her speech slurred a little as she spoke, and things were getting a little blurry. Ah, the magic of morphine.​

Sarah was having any doubts she had about Anna's boss deconstructed when the young girl praised this Vanessa for being kind and wouldn't want to make her do anything she didn't like.

When told that Anna could get her in for free, Sarah chuckled. She didn't think that there was an entrance fee in the first place, and for a moment that confused her. To her defense, she never got out much ever since she was a child. "Then I'll drop by for sure and be charmed by your siren song."

While they spoke a bit more, it was clear that the drugs administered were taking effect on Anna. She had drifted off topic on numerous occasions, which was amusing, but it seemed the girl was losing the fight against sleep. With a light chuckle, Sarah said, "I think you should rest for now." She herself wasn't too sleepy, but with the dullness of this room, she would no doubt get some shuteye herself.

Oh, man, what was she talking about now? Flowers? Anna's mind reeled as she tried to find a train of thought, but it was all so blurry. She blinked at Sarah, who was going fuzzy as her eyelids started to grow heavy. Anna yawned and nodded, letting herself give in to the drugs that had seeped into her system.

Anna slept soundlessly, and without dreams. It was a relief...there was no pain when she slept, no memories, just nothingness. Several hours passed as the evening rolled into night, and then morning. She slept through it all...the exhaustion of the terrible event had simply taken over.

As Anna fell asleep, Sarah was left with nothing but the sounds of the medical instruments, the dripping of the IV bags, and the TV which she hardly took notice of. Despite her hopes, she stayed awake. She just wasn't feeling sleepy and that was maybe because she had already slept for quite a while. Her sleep schedule was definitely messed up from staying up for days or even weeks on end.

She wondered if she'd ever sleep normally. Although, she did enjoy just sleeping for a couple of days straight. The science of how healthy that was for her was ignored, not wanting to stress herself out.

Eventually however, a nurse had noticed her difficulty in sleeping, and asked her a few questions. She must have expected her to be some kind of creature that didn't need sleep because she was surprised to learn about how long Sarah used to stay awake and that she was just a human. The nurse was pleasant and seemed genuinely interested in keeping her company, however her work needed her to be somewhere else, and so Sarah lost her distraction. She decided to simply force herself to sleep by just keeping her eyes closed. It took a few hours, but her body realized that she needed to sleep. Eventually. But of course, she would have slept for a couple of days straight, maybe making the doctors worry that she was in a coma. It was a habit that she lost control over.

((OOC: Alright, this is good to end ^^))
