Meanwhile, in the second floor common room ...

Yawning, Jubilee shuffles into the common room holding a bag of popcorn and a gigantic bottle of root beer like a pair of beloved teddy bears. Her hair is sticking up funny, and she's wearing a pair of flannel PJs with rubber chickens on them and purple bunny slippers.

She rubs sleepily at her eyes, even though her inability to go to bed is what's led to her being here, and flops down on one of the couches. She sprawls out on the couch, grabbing the remote for the TV. Stuffing a handful of popcorn into her mouth, she flips on the TV, only to turn it on in the middle of a nature special on elephants ... currently, their mating habits.

"... EW."

EDIT: And now we're watching Press Your Luck. Yay for bad '70s game shows!

Alanna wanders by the room on her way to the clinic.

"What's that, TV, right? But, it's a different thing then what was on last night. Do they have different shows every night? I'm confused."

Anders waves at the girl he doesn't recognize. "Confused? Yeah, join the club."

"There's a club for confused people now? Awesome." She stared at the TV. "What in the world are they wearing?"

Anders shrugged. "Earth fashion is not my specialty, so it probably looks as weird to you as it does to me. Maybe Jubilee or someone who knows more about it could answer that?"

Alanna blinks. Then, she blinks some more. "You're not from Earth?"

"No, I'm, uh . . ." Anders rubs a hand over his face, realizing he's in for more explanation than he planned. "Okay. This is gonna sound weird, but where I'm from, we didn't know if Earth actually existed. They told us that some of our ancestors found Earth after they left Kobol, but a lot of us only figured it for a myth."

Alanna blinked yet again.

"And I thought I came from far away coming from another world and all."

"You're from another world too? I guess I shouldn't be surprised around here, huh?"

[identity profile] threeweapons.livejournal.com 2005-09-18 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, I think it's odder when someone is actually from this world. What is this world defined as anyway?"

Anders laughs. "Earth. That's all I know, really. As crazy as everything gets on campus, I haven't really had a chance to figure out anything else."

Alanna rubbed her head. Thinking about this gives me a headache.

[identity profile] cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com 2005-09-18 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, you and me both. I spent my whole life believing this planet probably never existed. It's a real mindfrak."

Anders stood up and stretched. "Excuse me for a few minutes, Alanna. I'll be right back."
