My response to Writing Workshop challenge:

Percy slept more these days. The reasons mattered less than the frequency, but neither carried enough importance to cause him distress. Noises that once might have interrupted his slumber and provoked him to action now failed to rouse him. Even the pangs in the pit of his stomach no longer bothered him. Since the Big One fell onto the floor and no amount of licking made him wake up, Percy only felt the need to rest… maybe he’d make it permanent.
