"I won't go, I promise. It takes more than a few monsters and the sun to change that."
Feeling her collapse, Julian carefully sat down with Janie right where they were standing, and looked at her worriedly, unsure whether it was just exhaustion or something worse.
"The monsters messed with time." Janie began to explain "I could see that,
when I slowed them down. They fed off of our energy. I'm tired, but
there's so much to do."
She leaned against Julian, not wanting to get up. "There's bandages in the
bathroom, just... I need a minute to get them."
"Don't worry about that. You should get some sleep. I'll take care of things for a while."
Julian was relieved that Janie just seemed to suffer from the exhaustion and nothing worse, but she sure needed some rest. He placed an arm under her knees to pick her up gently, then got up a little less gracefully than usual, intending to carry her over to her bunk.
Julian put Janie down on her bed and started spreading the blanket across her.
"Yeah, it will. Along with, uh, a drink. Don't worry about me." He smiled reassuringly, even though he started to feel the results of the past events as well.

"Will rest help you too?" She sounded very concerned, even thought she was tired.
