A friend of mine fell asleep and has yet to wake up this afternoon. I've tried splashing water on him, but it was not very effective. Does anyone here known any other methods that we could try?

He shrugs his shoulders. "In for a florin..." Might as well go through with this. He's already kissed him once, so what difference would doing it twice make, really.
So, a second attempt. It's a little better. He's still awkward about it, not quite sure if he's entirely welcome despite Rainer's assurance to the contrary. But it is definitely more of a kiss. He even holds Fitz' hand, just in case, just to give his own hands something to do.
Nope. Still nothing.
"Perhaps we ought to try the crab, next."

"Crab, check." Morgan dashes over to where the Krabby is almost certainly awaiting his turn in the limelight - after all, he's very important to Fitzroy! - and scoops him up in her arms. When she gets back to the bedside, she sets the crab very gently on Fitz's chest, just in front of his face.
"Okay, buddy, it's all you!"

Now, it's Snippers 2.0's turn. The little Pokemon doesn't seem to mind being picked up and manhandled, just sort of blinking and blowing some bubbles when he's placed in front of Fitzroy's face. There's a long moment where the group holds their collective breaths...
...before the krabby just starts skittering sideways off of Fitz's body, onto the other side of the bed.
"No--! Someone grab him! He's making a break for it!"

"Come on, Snippers, don't you want your best buddy to wake up? Here, I'll help you."
She lifts the crab up again just a little and presses its...face...against Fitz's lips. She holds him there for a good five seconds - gotta make sure it takes!
Then she lowers the crab to peer at Fitz and sighs.
"Nope. Kissing is a bust."

"Oh." All that adrenaline is starting to drain out of her now, and creeping back in to take its place is concern for her friend.
"Maybe we should wait to see what people say on Leo's internet posting. I can't... think of anything else to try."
She doesn't want to give up, she just needs more time to let the ideas flow.
no subject
He's not giving up yet, not really. Either Fitz wakes up in a week, or they manage to get him up sooner. Both are better than the alternative. "And if nothing else, we just have to stay nearby until he wakes."
How bad could it be?
