“stay with me”/“always” is inextricably tied to “let me go”/“i can’t”
because when katniss asks peeta to stay with her because she can’t handle the nightmares without him, peeta makes a promise to be there for her always.
so when katniss attempts to end her life because she thinks she’s lost everything, peeta stops her. because even though katniss wants peeta to let her go, to no longer stay with her, he still keeps the promise of always.

I appreciate my uncle for always trying to give me different ideas to search for jobs to consider and stuff but the only thing HE hasn’t considered is that I’m a ball of anxiety and if I don’t have things planned my brain explodes

Womp womp I love u and your silly angst summaries ( do I call them that idk ) especially on Aiden cause he’s such a silly Billy and so chaotic idk why I like him so much but I know for sure that I need to see him being absolutely vulnerable to his friends for once just bawling , lots of hugs he wished he received before , a moment where he doesn’t have to force a stinky smile , his roots growing out and he doesn’t like it but they are just there and there they will be this is purging my thoughts I need to write fanfiction someone stop me NYWO !!!!!!

Thinking about how Astarion insisted on staying up to keep watch in the beginning of the game
Yeah, it could be because he needs to go hunt at night without anyone noticing, or because he's keeping an eye out for Cazador/his minions. But... It could also be because he's scared of sleeping/trancing in general?
He's got severe C-PTSD. I have that too. And one of the things I experience from it is a fear of falling asleep.
Sleeping is vulnerability. You're completely defenseless. It's terrifying to fall asleep when you're used to danger! And some abusers will purposefully do things to you when you sleep. I wouldn't put it past Cazador to have done something like that.
It's especially terrifying when you're sleeping somewhere unfamiliar, or as out and open as a forest. With strangers.
Add in the elvish reverie (if we assume Astarion still experiences it as he would if he were alive at his current age)... and he might even be reliving horrible memories every time he tries to rest.
(If you're unfamiliar with elvish trancing/dreaming, I made a post about it and some ways it might affect Astarion as a vampire spawn a while ago)
One of the reasons I think this could be the case is actually the other spawn, specifically what I noticed when we first meet Dalyria and Petras. At first I thought Astarion's eye bags were just a product of being undead. But... Petras, the very human looking spawn, doesn't have that. Dalyria is an elf as well, and like Astarion, she's got some of that tired sleep-deprived purple under and around her eyes.
So all this considered... I think it's very possible that Astarion has a fear of sleeping too. Or at the very least, trouble resting. Him and the other elvish spawn.
It also makes me wonder if he sleeps any better later on in the game. By Act 3 he probably feels more comfortable with you and the group. Sleeping near familiar people (especially people you're very comfortable with, but that's very dependant on your own choices in your game), and having established night time routines can make sleeping feel a little safer.
Plus by that point he's made many new memories he can visit in his reverie. Maybe instead of remembering the terrible things, sometimes he dreams of sun bathing, the first time he bit you or that bear, or any other happy memory he's created since being tadpoled.
Maybe for the first time in centuries, sleeping isn't such a terrible prospect.
