Room 234 - door's open

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker is playing Extreme Speed on her new xBox. She is doing very well. And if you know she has an xBox for whatever reason (maybe she told you about it?) feel free to knock on the door and take a turn.

Also, there are presents for those of you (Carter, Liz, Jack Harkness) who haven't picked them up yet.

Lee swings by, looking as if on a mission. "Hey Parker, open up."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker crashes, and scowls. "Hang on!" She puts the xBox on pause and goes to the door. "Hey, Apollo," she says cheekily. "What's up?"

[leeadama.livejournal.com]

"I wanna kick your ass at this game sober," he says with a cheeky grin.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"You. Suck," Parker informs him, opening the door wide. "I was beating you by 3am. I've been practicing. So step right up and prepare to burn, buster."

Angela taps on the door, feeling very, very good after gorging herself in the library all day.

Parker goes to the door, and look slightly freaked out. "Hey. Right! You wanted to play. Um, I don't know--"

_{OOOO! MORE PLAYERS, YAY!}

"-- if you'll want to, any more," Parker says, moving back. "I think my xBox is possessed."

[leeadama.livejournal.com]

Lee tenses and ponders the worst, omg.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

_{PLEASE? PLAY WITH ME? IT'S MY PURPOSE. FUN FUN FUN!}

"Uh, Lee? Want to start up a game? Or something?"

[chasingangela]

"It's talking," Angela says. "It's -- not supposed to?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Not really. I mean, sound effects, sure, and 'game over', and all that, but this is *freaky,*" Parker says.

_HEY!

"Sorry. Oh, god, I just apologized to an inanimate object. I don't want to end up like Crichton!"

Sam dropped by, several packages in hand. "Hey, Parker. These are (http://www.godiva.com/catalog/product.aspx?id=932&SE_Section=Shop&SE_Category=61)

"Carter, hey. I've got yours (http://www.whatonearthcatalog.com/whatonearth/T-Shirts_1AG/Wit-Humor_1EF/Item_The-Speed-Of-Dark-Shirts_AK5481G_ps_cti-1EF.html) right (http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod23220059&parentId=cat2690731&masterId=cat000294&index=3&cmCat=&_loopback=1) here (http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html/ref=sc_fe_c_9_0_3370831_4/104-3302011-8210324?%5Fencoding=UTF8&node=3586351&no=3370831&me=ATVPDKIKX0DER)," Parker said, then added, "and also, a problem. I think the xBox is.. electronically demented. Could you take a look at it?"

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Ooh. Thanks, Parker." She took the packages, but didn't unwrap them. She wanted to have gifts to open on Christmas morning, and Parker's were sure to be good ones. "Electronically demented? How so?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

_EIGHTH?

"Okay, *that's* new," Parker said.

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

Kawalsky banged on the door with his elbow. He had gifts in his hands and a hangover that was gnawing on his brain. "Hey Parks, lemme in or you don't get your present."

He still had some green paint in his hair since he didn't have any shampoo when taking a shower.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker opened the door, resigned to her fate as hostess to an xBox. "Kawalsky, hi." She did a double-take. "Nice look. Works for you. Heh. Um, did you notice anything weird about the xBox last night?"

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

"Nnnno.. did we steal someone's science project by accident?" He held out two (http://www.whatonearthcatalog.com/whatonearth/Fun-Recreation_1AC/View-All-Fun-Recreation_1BG/Item_Make-Your-Own-Wine-Kit-And-Refill-Package_AT6362G_ps_cti-1BG.html)

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Aww, thanks. And, we're not sure," Parker said, backing up to let him in. "Carter's looking at it, and it evidently wants us to play with it. I'm wondering what the teachers were *up* to with it."

_{IN NO WAY DID THEY PLAY WITH ME ENOUGH.}

"Anyway...."

[swerval_zero]

*raps on doorframe and leans into the room*

Hey, Parker, have you--ooh, is that one of the new xBoxes?

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Yes," Parker said, eying it distrustfully. She was sitting in the middle of her bed, staring at the thing. "It's, uh. Been upgraded. If you can stand having it critique your game, we can play."

[swerval_zero]

Is that one of the special features? Hadn't heard about that.

Marty the Elf bounds into the room!

"Son of a Nutcracker! We only have four days left until Santa gets here!"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Why yes, it is December 21, Marty," Parker said dryly, without looking up. "And I've already distributed all my presents. Yay me." Then she looked up.

"Oh sweet God. What are you wearing? You look like Lorne. And you can't pull that look off!"

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

"You distributed presents! That's *GREAT*! You're sure to be on Santa's good list then! Because you don't want to be on the naughty list. That's *BAAAAAAAaaaaaaad*!"

Marty Elf looks at the Xbox with a gleam in his eye. "Is that the XBOX with the 3270 microprocessor chipset!"
