Good morning Dr Grey,
I'm afraid I have a favour to ask you, either in your capacity as a medical doctor or as a fellow telepath. If you recall I came to you previously as I was having some trouble sleeping? Unfortunately the situation has not improved. On the contrary, in addition to the insomnia there have now been several occasions in which I have found myself waking up in situations other than those I fell asleep in - in short, I am sleepwalking, and it's getting worse. A couple of weeks ago I even inadvertently attacked Quentin when he tried to wake me up. He suggested I tried talking to you about, as he put it, 'a telepathic alarm clock'. While I doubt that would work at this point I am willing to try it, or anything else you could think of that might help. Otherwise it is starting to look like I will need a full-time babysitter service, or will possibly have to start sleeping in a coffin.
Yours sincerely,
Betsy

Betsy,
You attacked Quentin a couple of weeks ago? I wish you would have come to me earlier. While I work on a few ideas, it might be best to have someone around to watch you in case you happen to take a nightly stroll. Would you be open to have a roommate?

Dear Jean,
on further reflection that might have been a good idea, although perhaps attack may have been too strong a term to use. No lasting damage was done. Or even temporary damage, really. No damage of any kind, apart from possibly some minor bruising.
As for a roommate, while I can't claim great enthusiasm at the thought I concede that it may be required to ensure a lack of further shenanigans while I am not conscious to enjoy them.
Yours,
Betsy

Betsy,
Minor bruising or not, it still seems like something that has you concerned. I am too.
I have someone in mind that I think might be a good idea. Let me check with them and I'll get back to you. This would be only if you're okay with it as well. If not, we can find someone else.
Jean
