Sleeping and Bathing Timeline

Okay, there is enough ink spilled on the topic of sleeping arrangements and bathing that it deserves some coverage in the Wiki.

### Night 1 - The first night after 'Reincarnation Day'

   (Book 1, Chapter 2, Part 5)

* Arihito qualifies for Nornil Heights - a Suite with 2 beds and 1 room.

* Theresia is returned to the Mercenary Guild where she sleeps.

* Kyouka has been released from the Healers, but she has 0 Contribution Points.
	+ This means she is destined for the Barn.

Atobe shares his room with Kyouka who has trouble sleeping with Arihito facing her. It appears Arihito's support skills (Recovery) do not stop, and that support turns into sexual tension.

Arihito moves into the Living Room and sleeps on the couch.

### Night 2

(Book 1, Chapter 3, Parts 8,9, and 'exclusive bonus content' for digital light novel?)

   (Book 1, Chapter 2, Part 5)

* Arihito qualifies for a Royal Suite - but will not look at it until the next day

* After a big celebration for defeating Juggernaut, *everyone* comes to stay in the 1 bedroom Suite at Nornil Heights.

* Arihito sleeps on couch 1

* Theresia sleeps on couch 2

* Louisa and Kyouka share 1 bed
* Elitia and Misaki share 1 bed
* Suzuna sleeps on the floor, her head resting on Elitia's bed.

*None* of the woman can sleep! They *all* lay wake ‘unsatisfied’ in the middle of the night.

For relief they come to ‘express their gratitude’ to Arihito with physical contact. Mostly they hold his hand as he sleeps.

Bath - Theresia surprises Arihito by following him into the men's bath. She refuses to leave and washes his back and then soaks in the tub until she nearly passes out from the heat and her lizard trait of being cold-blooded.

### Night 3 Lady Ollerus Mansion

(Book 2, Chapter 1, Part 5)

A lottery is held where the 'winner' gets to share a room with Arihito. The ladies further decide to sleep in his room on a rotation schedule.

* Bedroom 1: 2 beds - Arihito, Suzuna
* Bedroom 2: 2 beds - Kyouka, Theresia
* Bedroom 3: 2 beds - Misaki, Elitia
* Bedroom 4: 2 beds - open

* Outside: Cion

Arihito dreams that someone came to his bed and slept next to him. No mention of who.

* Candidates: It is probably Suzuna as she leaves the room early. But Theresia can be sneaky. . .

Bath - Theresia wants to bathe with Arihito, but backs off when Kyouka insists they ’need swimsuits'

### Night 4 Lady Ollerus Mansion

(Book 2, Chapter 5, Part 2)

The party decides the bed rotation is a hassle and leave the room assignments the same. Madoka and Melissa come to stay.

* Bedroom 1: 2 beds - Arihito, Suzuna
* Bedroom 2: 2 beds - Kyouka, Theresia
* Bedroom 3: 2 beds - Misaki Elitia
* Bedroom 4: 2 beds - Madoka Melissa

* Outside: Cion

Suzuna is possessed by Ariadne. Ariadne wants to elevate her 'Trust' as she needs to increase her defensive capabilities since the next black box they open contains Murakumo.

* Ariadne suggests 'relations' (sex) with Suzuna.
* Arihito instead uses his Charge Assist skill to share magic, while Ariadne (through the possessed Suzuna) uses Energy Sync to share it back. This infinite Loop seems to create the same 'Trust' in Ariadne (sexual tension) as it does with the rest of the Party.

Bath: Theresia insists on bathing with Arihito, prompting Kyouka and Elitia to grab bathing clothes and join.

### Night 5 Lady Ollerus Mansion

(Book 2, Chapter 5, Part 7)

* Bedroom 1: 2 beds - Arihito, Suzuna
* Bedroom 2: 2 beds - Kyouka, Theresia
* Bedroom 3: 2 beds - Misaki Elitia
* Bedroom 4: 2 beds - Madoka Melissa
* Outside: Cion

Suzuna seems 'like a butterfly that has emerged from her cocoon' and mentions "Ariadne's suggestion is okay with her". Everyone objects and warns Suzuna to not do anything inappropriate. The night passes without incident.

Bath - Arihito and Theresia. The party wants to institute a 'bathe with Arihito' lottery. New party member Madoka is surprisingly interested. Maybe not a surprise? as Arihito had just save her from Death from Above. Melissa shows she is part werecat by stating she hates baths.

### Night 6 Terrace Suites

(Book 3, Chapter 4, Parts 3 & 4)

* Bedroom 1: 3 beds - Arihito, Theresia, Louisa
* Bedroom 2: 3 beds - Kyouka, Madoka, Melissa
* Bedroom 3: 4 beds - Elitia, Suzuna, Misaki

Bath - After the Paradox Beetle victory party, Louisa wakes from her drunken stupor thanks to Arihito’s healing. She then gives him a scalp massage in the bath. Her bathing clothes are revealing and Arihito notes that he is facing ‘an opportunity’ with a woman showing (strong) interest. Madoka and Kyouka ‘check on Arihito’ making the opportunity disappear.

For the second time, Arihito has a vague feeling (or "dream") that someone came into his bed in the middle of the night.

### Night 7 Tent Camping

(Book 3, Chapter 5, Part 3)

Tent assignments for the planned overnight in Silvanus's Bedchamber were to be:

* Tent east of Spring - Ryouko, Anna, Ibuki, Kaede (all but Ryouko want Arihito to stay)
* Tent above cliffs - Arihito, Theresia, Elitia, Madoka
* Tent at edge of woods - Kyouka, Cion, Suzuna, Misaki

The fight with the Messenger happens early in the evening so neither sleeping nor bathing have been resolved.

### Future

I suspect Towa will stick with the formula of Seeking during the day and having more and more woman compete for Arihito at night. Hey, even Cion loves him!

As long as the main character insists his story is about rescuing Elitia's friend, transforming Theresia, and generally growing in power. . .then the Harem aspect is pushed into a secondary role that simply serves to titillate the audience. That is to say:

* This is a LitRPG novel with a harem element

as opposed to

* A harem novel with an adventure setting.

### Possible Running Gag

With someone having shared his bed twice now, the whole 'sneaking into Arihito's bed at night' has the potential to be a really funny running gag in this series.
