Five-More-Minutes
The Hag of the Second Snooze
Just five more minutes... just five...
By Katsuki Mitsumori
Profile
A hag who drags you, pillow and all, into the sweet swamp of the second snooze. On mornings she smiles upon you, three alarms can blare and not a sound of the world reaches you. Her 'five more minutes' feels more like forty. Painfully familiar to anyone who fights the snooze button every single morning.
Relationships with other curses
She reveres the Sleeping Princess Thornsewn as her 'master' (though the princess has no memory of it). She's on bad terms with Starlit-Wanderer The Swirling Night, forever at odds as the one who puts you to sleep versus the one who keeps you awake.
How to deal with this curse
Five-More-Minutes embodies the everyday frustration of "everyday." Bottled-up feelings only grow heavier. The moment you feel it, give it a name and write it out — that is the quickest way to make it lighter. Noroi Nikki is a completely private place to do exactly that.
