Second Floor Common Room [Thursday Evening]

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders heads into the common room for a while after talking to Cameron, who was still camped out (in a little camouflage tent!) in front of Vala's door. He frowns as he turns on ESPN and realizes that he did, in fact, miss the last game of the World Series last night, but there's this bizarre Degrassi: The Next Generation show on Noggin and it fascinates him for some reason.

Could be the sleep deprivation, really. He hopes.

*wanders in, smiling, a bucket of Legos under her arm, and a large cup filled with gumballs in her opposite hand*

Legos and gum. It's a regular party in here. *laugh*

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

*looks up from where he's flopped across the couch and smiles*

Wow. It gave you a lot of gum that time.

So. No corn syrup, huh?

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they just sort of shot out. One of 'em bopped me on the nose, and everything. *grins, sets down the glass with the gum, and the Legos, and flops down in front of the couch, since Anders has taken up the whole thing*

*gives Cally the sad puppydog face*

Not gonna climb up here with me? 'sides, I gotta kiss your nose if it got bopped by a gumball.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

*sighs, just for effect* If you insist. *climbs up onto the couch and snuggles up next to Anders*

So, the common room was just for a change of scenery, huh?

*grins and kisses Cally on the nose several times, wrapping his arms around her*

Sorta, yeah. Was kinda hoping for a chance to hang out with people for once, too.

*goes silent for a few minutes, just enjoying having Cally snuggled up against him*

So, we gonna play with that bucket of Legos or what?

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

*smiles*

Yeah, that sounds like an idea. *doesn't move, and stays snuggled up all nice and close with Anders*

Kara wanders in and rolls her eyes. "I'll give you fifty cubits to stop being so nauseating."

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders smirks and sticks his tongue out at her, then goes back to snuggling with Cally.

"Fifty cubits, Thrace? I'm insulted."

[pyramid-is-life.livejournal.com]

"It could have been a hundred, but you know, just not your lucky day. Or mine." she says, shrugging.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders tightens his arms around Cally and kisses her ear. "No, I'd say it's definitely my lucky day." He smirks again. "Too bad about yours."

[pyramid-is-life.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, well, what're you gonna do?" Kara pulls out her cigar case and cuts one.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"For frak's sake, Thrace, do you gotta do that in here?" complains Anders. "Healthy habit for a would-be pro Pyramid player you got."

[pyramid-is-life.livejournal.com]

Kara blows a mouthful of smoke in his face as response.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

*sticks out her tongue at Kara*

You got a problem? *grin*

[pyramid-is-life.livejournal.com]

"All kinds, Cally," she replies, lighting up her cigar and taking a long drag.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

*frowns* Well, that kinda sucks... *bites her lower lip*

[pyramid-is-life.livejournal.com]

Kara gives her a tight smile that doesn't quite reach her eyes. "No, it's just life."

[pyramid-is-life.livejournal.com]

Kara stops and looks at Anders for a moment, and in a blinding flash her right arm whips around and smacks him right in the mouth.

"Be careful what you ask for, Samuel."

Post-Apocalyptic Argument

*holds Cally tight, kissing her nose and wiping her tears away*

Hey . . . you okay?

Re: Post-Apocalyptic Argument

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

*sniffs* I didn't mean to... I just... *sniffs again* I'm so sorry...

Re: Post-Apocalyptic Argument

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Cally, no, this wasn't your fault . . . what are you apologizing for?

*pulls Cally down onto the couch and into his lap, ignoring the trickle of blood from where his lip's been split*

*leans in to rest his forehead against Cally's and hold her tight*

Hey . . . I love you, it's okay.

Re: Post-Apocalyptic Argument

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

I love you too. That's why I'm... *sniffs again, and looks blearily into Anders' eyes* Forgive me?

Re: Post-Apocalyptic Argument

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

*smiles at Cally and starts stroking her cheek* Forgive you? For what? You didn't do anything except try to defend me.

Re: Post-Apocalyptic Argument

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

*sniffs again* I hit you... I really hit you, and I... oh no... my gosh *puts her hand under Anders' chin, and looks carefully at his lip*

We need to get some ice on that, okay? *sniff*
