Second Floor Common Room, Monday Morning

[whenshewasnice]

Natalie was pretty sure there had been sofas in the common room when she'd come in a few times over the weekend. Normal, common room-y sofas. She was pretty sure.

Right now, though? Nests. Just nests. This was probably part of that oh-so-wacky Fandom weirdness that she'd been hearing about, right?

So far, it wasn't really impressing her. It was more of an inconvenience than anything. Still, she went about making her oatmeal, and thanked whatever higher power happened to be at work on the island that a table and a few chairs had been spared from whatever this nest thing was supposed to be about.

She leafed through some random magazine while she had breakfast, and hoped nothing important had suffered from a transformation.

[ooc: Open like a common room! A common room with nests!]

5th floor common room- Monday evening

[inaskinnyway.livejournal.com]

Susan knew that this place was much different than her own world- it still felt strange to think of it that way but she supposed that was the best way to put it- and she was determined to adapt as quickly as possible. The most glaring differences were the technological ones, and so she'd started there.

She'd quickly decided that anyone who took longer than five seconds to deduce what a light switch was for and how to work it was an idiot. With that accomplished, she moved on to the common room, testing out whatever it was she didn't immediately recognize and see if she couldn't figure it out. To her surprise, it hadn't been difficult to work anything. It was almost as if she already knew how to turn these things on and make them go, which she knew was ridiculous. She'd never seen these devices before, so there was no way that she would know how to operate them, and therefore they just had to be simple to operate.
The only thing that was causing any trouble at all was the television. Susan knew that pushing the button would make it turn on, and she'd figured out that pushing these other buttons would make whatever was on the screen change. Of course, anyone coming into the room would find her doing so by standing next to the television and making the channels change that way. She was already deciding everything on this thing was drivel. There would never be any reason to learn to use the remote.
