Fine ladies and gentlemen, I'm proud to present my first entry to the Worldbuilding Prompt #447- Insomnia.
Weekly Topic: Sleep

"You know, I've never really given it much thought."
"If we're on a cloud," she continued, "how will we ever get to the port?"
"We'll just have to descend I suppose."
"That's what I mean! Does it not strike you as odd that we're floating on a cloud?"
"You know, I've never really given it much thought."
