Second Floor Common Room

Rory toddled out to the common room with LWB III, Holly, and several other dolls and stuffed toys with her. She also had a soft pink blankie.

She plopped onto the floor approximately a foot from the television, and began to watch Itchy and Scratchy, intermittently giggling around her thumb, which was firmly lodged in her mouth.


[ooc: So, Rory was bitten by a gremlin earlier. She now thinks she's about three or four years old. She still looks like she's seventeen, though, in spite of the icon. Also, she'll recognize people, but only if you're someone she knows pretty well. And don't expect her to process a whole lot. Rory was a very precocious toddler, but there's a limit, really.]

Callisto, still fleeing from Principal Smith, wandered into the common room.

And blinked.

Sam came back into the common room, pens and highlighters in hand, along with a bunch of photocopied pages, determined to figure out how Winona worked so could help Cameron fix her.

"Hey, Rory. Nice to see you've dried off."

Anders, emerging from his room after several hours playing with his new TV and DVD player (no, really), wandered into the common room just behind Callisto.

And also blinked.

"Uh. Gilmore? The frak are you doing?"

"Hey, Rory," Callisto continued to blink.

Sam's eyes widened and she shot a look over at Anders and Callisto. "Rory? You okay?"

Anders blinked some more.

And then some more.

And then a lot more.

"Uh, Rory? Where'd your letter 's' go?"

Jake wandered into the common room. Krycek must've found the box by now, and since he didn't have a telly, he'd probably end up in the common room. Or so Jake reasoned. He was dressed in his "instant human, just add coffee" t-shirt and carrying a book.

Anders looked helplessly at Sam and shrugged. "Either she's in a really weird goofy mood, or something, but she's talking kinda funny now. And I don't think it all has to do with the thumb in her mouth."

"Riiiiight..." Callisto started looking Rory over for gremlin bites.

More than mildly disturbed by Rory's behavior, Anders was glad for the distraction when someone he didn't know walked into the common room.

He was even gladder once he'd read the slogan on Jake's shirt.

"Dude! That shirt is awesome."

"Maybe she ran into Principal Smith, and he showed her his cherry stem trick." Callisto offered. ""

Sam looked over as someone new entered. She smiled at the shirt, and wondered where she could get one for Daniel. "Hey. I'm Sam Carter."

She looked back at Rory.

"Hey, Jakey." Callisto waved.

"Isn't it?" Jake smiled brightly. "I got it from Parker for Christmas. You're Callynanders, right?" He didn't seem to notice anything strange about Rory.

"Principal Smith has a cherry stem trick?" Sam looked at Callisto in horror.

Anders raised an eyebrow. "You ran into the new principal? I hear he kinda creeped out Crichton something fierce. That coulda been it. 'cause Rory's all, like, wee and spazzy and stuff."

He leaned over a little closer to Rory. "Uh. Gilmore? Did you maybe meet creepy new principal guy without warning or something?"

Sam whispered, "Rory, what else happened to you today?"

Callisto nodded, she looked vaguely traumatised. "He asked me if I found it endearing."
