sleep and wakefulness tropes for my oc
[spoiler=le epic cringe]Asleep for Days: In one episode, Agent Mandy ends up overworking herself to the point where she falls asleep in the middle of repairing a gadget. When she wakes up, a week has passed.
Mandy: How long have I been asleep for?
Otto: A week. Monday to Monday.
Mandy: SO I MISSED A WEEK OF WORK?! Ugh...lemme head up to Ms. O's office to get my face chewed off again...
Bedmate Reveal: At the beginning of "Dance Like Nobody's Watching", Mandy wakes up to find Pinkie in her bed, wide awake and staring at her. This prompts her to scream and fall out of bed.
Bedtime Brainwashing: The Sand Man attempts to do this to Mandy, and later Fluttershy and Pinkie, by whispering lies about Odd Squad into their ears while they're asleep. Mandy, however, ends up blasting the villain clear out of the Bed Room while asleep.
Catapult Nightmare: Usually happens when Mandy dreams about Ms. O firing her from the Squad.
Comforting Comforter: In "Robert Plant", Olive puts a blanket over Mandy (who had been working overtime and had fallen asleep at her desk) as she guides her to the Bed Room.
Deep Sleep: Mandy tends to sleep through most of the odd happenings in headquarters. She proudly boasts about it often.
Mandy: Ohohoh, and I can sleep through anything! Tornadoes, creature attacks, fire, earthquakes, gadgets gone wrong...even famine and pestilence! But I'm, uh, still working on that...
*Ms. O, Olive, Otto and Peaches stare in wordless shock*
Don't Wake the Sleeper: If someone tries to wake Mandy up, they usually get a heavy beating, mostly when she's asleep. Olive reveals in one episode that a major problem with Mandy getting her horn and wings at first was that she fired laser blasts from her horn in her sleep accidentally. She later helped Mandy control it.
Exhausted Eye Bags: Agent Mandy always has these in the morning no matter how much sleep she gets. Her VA also has noticeable ones.
Forced Sleep: In an unreleased episode, a villain uses a gadget to make agents fall asleep. It ends up being up to Otto, who is the only one not affected, to save the Squad.
Fright-Induced Bunkmate: Happens in "Haunt Squad" while Olympia, Otis and Mandy are being chased by floating objects:
Olympia: Uh Mandy, I have one question!
Mandy: Yeah?
*beat*
Olympia: CAN I SLEEP IN YOUR BED TONIGHT?!
Go-To-Sleep Ending: An alternate, unaired ending of "Hands on the Desk Chair" had Olympia, Mandy, Otis, Owen, Ocean and Orchid all falling asleep due to their exhaustion fighting over Ms. O's chair.
Heavy Sleeper: Mandy to a perfect tee. She even brags about it!
Insomnia Episode: "Mystic Egg Pizza" was one for Mandy. "Flawed Squad" was one for Pinkie and Fluttershy.
Instant Sedation: When scientists from the Odd Squad Academy mistake Agent Mandy for an intruder in "Oscar Strikes Back", they try shooting her with the Tranquilizer-inator. They missed the first few times, but eventually Mandy is shot in the back while flying and, going unconscious, crash-lands. The scientists later apologized for the whole incident, but Mandy's Hair-Trigger Temper caused her to go on a rampage.
Mandy: You know, I repair gadgets for you kiddos, and your "thank you" gift is to shoot me in the back like I'm an animal that's escaped from the Cincinnati Zoo. Some people in this generation seriously need to buy some hecking eyeglasses BECAUSE THEY CAN'T TELL A HUMAN FROM A PONY-HUMAN HYBRID IN AN AGENT SUIT!! *stomps away*
Messy Hair: Mandy's Pinkie-esque brown hair tends to have stray hairs sticking out of it when she wakes up.
Nap-Inducing Speak: While Orson's speech in "The Potato Ultimato" inspired Olaf, Mandy admits it put her to sleep only 5 minutes in.
Never Wake Up a Sleepwalker: Subverted. The Main 4 were too impressed by Mandy's doings while asleep--cooking breakfast for them, doing paperwork, and fixing upwards of 20 gadgets--to wake her up. Eventually, Mandy guided herself back to bed.
Not a Morning Person: In the mornings, Mandy can often be found crashing into walls as she makes her way into the Break Room for breakfast. It isn't until she has her Chocolate Moo-Moo Surprise drink that her energy levels increase.
An Odd Place to Sleep: Mandy has slept on wall tops, in trees, and even on top of a moving car. Like with her Heavy Sleeper tactics, she brags about that as well.
Overworked Sleep: Much like Olympia, Mandy tends to fall asleep at her desk if she works too hard or gets too tired.
Pajama-Clad Hero: Mandy is in her sleepwear for the entirety of "There Might Be Dragons."
Pillow Silencer: In one episode, Mandy whacks Ms. O with a pillow to get her to stop talking. Hilarity Ensues in the form of a chase scene until Mandy gives up the pillow. In another episode, when Agent Pinkie Pie was talking to Fluttershy, Mandy proceeded to put a pillow over her mouth.
Mandy: Shhh! Let the artiste work, filly!
Reveille: Ms. O has played a Reveille on a bugle a few times to get Olympia to wake up.
Rip Van Winkle: In "Two Agents and a Baby", Mandy tells Olympia and Otis the story of Sweet Dreams, a Pegasus pony who slept for 5 decades before she awoke. While Otis doubts the story is true, Olympia is enthralled.
Sleep Cute: "Partner Problems" had Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy sleeping together on Mandy's desk, with the former slumped over the latter.
Sleep Learning: Mandy has recordings of Olive's dreams, and was convinced that Olive was learning how to be an Odd Squad agent from "the time babies could dream."
Sleep Mask: Rarity has one with bows on it, which Mandy criticizes constantly.
Sleeping Dummy: In "Three's Company", Ms. O goes to find Mandy presumably napping in the Bed Room, only to find a wax figure of Mandy instead of the real Mandy, created by Oona. The real Mandy was out on a top-secret case given to her by the Big O, but neglected to tell anyone. She just forgot to clock out...
Sleepwalking: Mandy has done this twice, getting her paperwork done, breakfast ready, and gadgets repaired, all while fast asleep. However, she also stole Ms. O's special cube while sleep-cleaning her office.
Mandy: *upon waking up in the morning* Wow, I feel like I've accomplished so much!
Ms. O: WHO IN THE NAME OF SHEILA TOOK MY LUCKY CUBE?!
Mandy: *looks at her nightstand in despair* Uh-oh.
Sleepyhead: Mandy. She can fall asleep anytime and anywhere, and it's almost impossible to wake her up.
Slept Through the Apocalypse: Subverted--Mandy has slept through villain break-ins, creature attacks, and other odd phenomena.
Slumber Party: At the beginning of "Dawn of the Read", Mandy, with pillow, blanket and sleeping bag in tow, announces to the bullpen that she's heading to Agent Rarity's slumber party. She isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
Talking in Your Sleep: Mandy does this all the time, sometimes waking up the other ponies who also sleep in the Bed Room. She'll also move her arms and legs whenever she dreams of running. It's so bizarre that it's led Oscar to perform an experiment to see what she dreams about at night in one episode. Hilarity Ensues.
Wake-Up Fighting: Mandy wakes up punching the air in "Undercover Olive".
Waking Non Sequitur: Mandy tends to do this a lot.
Waking Up Elsewhere: In the movie, the last thing Mandy sees while on a stretcher is a blue sky. When she awakes, she is in the hospital with her legs in stirrups and casts, which causes her to panic.
Water Wake-up: In one episode, Mandy did this to Rarity. Needless to say, she was not pleased.
What Did I Do Last Night?: After an overnight party Mandy had held at her house, inviting the majority of Ponyville, she wakes up the next day on Oona's table surrounded by broken gadgets.[/spoiler]
