Whilst it was hard to mark the passing of time, Sadalsuud was guessing that it was on the later side of things.
She had started off in her room, but had ended up finding her way over to the library after it had become obvious that sleep wasn't something that was going to come anytime soon.
As on her previous visits the doors had stood open, the room beyond quiet and seemingly empty as Sadalsuud made her way to a table with the music box that Queen Altea had given her cradled carefully in her hands.
There was a gleam at her wrists as she set it gently down on the table - new patches of glistening crystal to match the ones that had appeared without warning on the tops of three of her fingers on her left hand running from little to middle finger.
Remarque had said that it might be some sort of weird space pimple and Sadalsuud saw no reason to not believe him, but whilst she was sure that they would fade away in time - well okay make that she hoped - that they would fade away in time, she couldn't help but feel a little troubled.
Sadalsuud looked over at the music box for a few moments, her right hand reaching out to trace over the flowers that decorated the edges of the wood before shifting downwards towards the hidden button on the box.
There didn't seem to be anyone in the library to disturb so maybe she could listen to the music for a while and watch the way that the light sparkled like little stars over the slowly spinning crystal flower at the centre–
Because the music was soothing and perhaps if she listened for long enough then maybe - just maybe she would finally find herself wanting to sleep.Leopleuradon sorry for the belated start Sleet Tempest Snape lmk if this works for you both :3 I can always change it if not

What normally came to him with such ease had been playing hide and seek with him since arriving here, and sleep was winning this game, it was obvious in the way he moved and he looked - he screamed tired It just wasn't easy to find sleep though. It was his wandering, shuffling, feet which brought him to the library and inside past it's doors.
What he wasn't expecting, as he stepped inside the library, was to hear the light sounds of soft music playing. Whatever it was, as it wasn't a tune he'd ever heard, was rather pleasant on the ears. While looking for that he did spot a rather familiar figure.
"Sadalsuud...." Venturing softly, not wanting to talk too loud and break whatever mood the music had settled over the room. It seemed relaxing and peaceful in here, thanks in part to the music.(Short, I know. But couldn't think of much.)

Crocus missed his own bed, in his cozy apartment, something awful right about now. He really hadn't planned on being stuck in some strange castle for as long as they had. Surely the Queen would find some sort of break through soon, but she seemed to be venturing out less and less these days. Which concerned him a great deal, especially when he had woken up that morning with crystallized finger tips on his right hand and a flower-petaled shape on his cheek. The alarm bells were ringing in his head and it was making sleep something hard to get at the moment.
The library was the only room he had wandered into and thought, 'There could be something useful in here'. So that's where he wandered to again. Once he opened the door though, he heard the music. Music, something he had missed terribly. Maybe he should start storing his guitar in subspace before adventures? The calluses on his fingers were already getting softer.
He looked for the source of the sound and found Kiuchi there with the other green Senshi. He had probably heard her name before in passing, but couldn't recall it from the top of his head. They had never had proper introductions before. He made his way over there and ruffled Kiuchi's hair a bit, he hadn't seen his 'lil bro' since the dinner they had all shared together the first night.
"That is a very lovely music box. I almost miss music more than I miss real food." It was a pleasant little tune as well, though he had never heard it before. He could only assume she had found it somewhere in the castle, after all he'd been all over this library more times than he could count. "My names Crocus by the way. It seems like every time we run into each other things are too crazy for proper introductions."

It had taken but a second after pushing the hidden button for the music box to open and the music to start up and Sadalsuud had settled down to listen to the soft, tinkling chimes as her eyes watched the slowly turning crystal flower.
Caught as she was in listening to the music, it took her a good few moments to realise that she was no longer alone in the library, green eyes blinking startled as the sound of voices finally registered before her lips tilted in a small smile of recognition as she caught sight of Kiuchi.
"Hi Kiuchi" she said quietly, before her eyes shifed towards the blond senshi by her friend.
"Thank you - it really is pretty" she said as she nodded in agreement at his comment about the music box. "Queen Altea gave it to me."
Her voice turned slightly rueful as she admitted "And things have been pretty crazy lately" although perhaps it was more than just lately. "It's nice to meet you though Crocus - I'm Sadalsuud."
A thought occurred to her, her voice turning a little sheepish as she asked "I wasn't disturbing you was I?"
Because as pretty as she found the music, Sadalsuud was also aware that it was also kind of late "I can switch it off if so..."
She was reaching out absently towards the lid of the box as she spoke, light glinting off the crystal at her wrist, but she paused as she caught sight of the crystal mark on Crocus' cheek, her hand stilling "You have it too" her voice a startled half whisper.
