Third Floor Common Room; Monday Morning [05/03].

"Wait," said Troy, once he'd successfully shuffled down the hallway after Astrid after she'd come to get him that morning to go down to the common room and she started pulling out what they'd need to get started on some breakfast, "so does this mean waking up this early every Monday just to get this done?"

Astrid shrugged a little, opening the fridge and scanning it for the ingredients they'd need. "Sure," she said. "You've got to get an early start so you don't miss anyone who's got the first period classes."

"I'm pretty sure missing out on breakfast is what they get for having first period classes."

Astrid grinned a little bit, handing Troy a carton of eggs and a big mixing bowl. "It'll be good for you," she informed him. "Helps build character."

"I think I've got more than enough character already," Troy decided, but he reluctantly started in with the eggs. "Don't be surprised if this ends up being an entirely you thing by the end of the summer, I'm not sure this is going to be sustainable."

"Don't worry," Astrid assured him, putting her own attention into getting some coffee going and mixing up some pancakes, "I won't be."

Dammit, Astrid! And now Troy was going to feel...slightly compelled to just keep it up to prove you wrong.

Slightly.

Not that much.

Because this was, like, stupid early, just for breakfast, and on a break week, no less!
