Saiyuki: Instructions for the Babysitter by treneka
Instructions for the Babysitter (ensemble | G | 2,119 words) are instructions for when Hakkai decides he needs a break from the other three. It's cute and funny and true to character. I'm particularly fond of the section on youkai attacks.
Excerpt:
Regarding sleep, Goku only operates in two modes: hyperactive and out-like-a-light. As a consequence he is usually a pretty good sleeper. It can be difficult to convince him to go to bed if Sanzo has not yet done so, however. Luckily, Sanzo is at least on some level aware of this, and can generally be counted on to put Goku to bed if the two are rooming together. For this reason, I find it rather effective to ask for two rooms upon reaching an inn. Do not tell the others that you do this (they don't like to share), but it really will make your life easier, both in putting them down and waking them in the morning. If need be, have the host or innkeeper lie for you. If you're charming enough, this will not pose a problem; you'll be aided and the boys will be none the wiser.
