Hangover survivors' mecca

[fates_jaye]

It's 12:48 pm. Jaye is still in her pajamas. She may still have some bedhead going on. She is camped out on the sofa of the second floor common room with a blanket, a pillow, and a super size bottle of aspirin. And water. Lots of water. She also ordered out for pizza. And she hates everything on TV and wishes someone brought a movie. Because she's not going back upstairs.

Her head hurts. However, that shouldn't discourage anyone from stopping by and teasing (as she's too icky to care) or joining in the ughness (as you may have a better story).

"Mmmm." Parker takes a seat on the couch, and focuses distantly on the Bund movie. "Ah. Spies. Always relaxing. Did I miss anyone making a huge fool of themselves last night?" She grinned. "Aside from Jaye broadcasting from the restroom?"

"Not sure," Angela says, struggling to remember. "I think that weird old magician guy was hitting on the girl who looks like Rory but grey. Which I'm sure Rory will love if we tell her."

Parker chortled, then winced. "Ow. Yeah. I think I'll have to. Becky makes her nervous. And I'm not allowed to tease her about... other things. Like people who are just friends."

[chasingangela]

Angela raises an eyebrow. "I can't say anything, but you might want to ask her what might, in theory, have happened with a certain Jedi if they weren't just friends. Because she has this whole completely alternate-universe thing worked out, and it's an interesting story."

"And yeah, we need to tell her about the Becky thing. I get why she's nervous, though. I'd hate to have a double who was a prostitute or dating John Connor.

"Alternate universe? Ow. Okay. Later, when I've had more naptime. I can't handle more time-travel stuff on top of an almost-hangover. Dealing with Old You was weird enough before Christmas."

"I think she knows about Becky, but it's fun. The scary thing is she's Jarod's boss, so I have to be nice to her. Particularly since her partner hates me."

[chasingangela]

"Not time travel. Just, um, ask Rory about Anakin and see what she says and it will actually make sense then. Well, it won't, but you'll understand why I said that."

"I didn't know Jarod worked at the Fourth Sin. I'm almost tempted to stop by there and see him, 'cause he seems really sweet."

Referring back to their earlier conversation so as to consolidate threads, Angela says, "That sucks, that the principal's changing the student council around. I hope elections are lower-key this time at least. I think everybody runnign pretty much hated them back in October. And then -- no offense, but did the council really do anything anyhow?"

"Okaaay. Rory, Anakin, universes. Hunh." She shrugged. "And yeah, Jarod's the receptionist there, when he's not working at Caritas. I don't love it, but it makes him happy. He was working at the Perk for a while, but two jobs seem to be enough now." She grinned. "He *can* be sweet. On occasion. When he's not annoying as all hell."

"We planned dances. And they managed Parent's Weekend, I wasn't on it yet. There's another one coming up in a week," Parker protested. "And, uh, the tree for Kitty. And the Honor Society, which gets up and running this semester." Then she sighed. "But no, a lot of it was just squabbling. Maybe if we have more people involved, more will get done." She slumped down on the couch. "And at least this campaign is short. I just wish I didn't have to be run... well, I guess I don't, but...."

[chasingangela]

"Two jobs is more than enough," Angela agrees. "One is good. Does he need the money, or does he just really like work?"

"Okay, the council did stuff, my apologies," Angela says, throwing her hands up in mock defeat. "And I think you should run. If it's going to bother Raindrop anyhow, it might as well be for you and not Phoebe Halliwell, or something."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Both," Parker said. "He's on his own, his family is not a factor, but he'd do it even if he had money. Jarod gets bored easily. And then he starts looking for things to mess with. Fortunately, I gave him a kitten for Christmas that seems to be taking up *some* of his attention."

"Maybe I will run." She put her shades back on. "I'm going to obsess about it anyway, and about who'll be in charge if I don't. At least I won't be running against Echolls or Belthazor or anyone who really, really dislikes me. I think." She frowned, staring at the ceiling. "I need to talk to Alanna and Rory about what they want to do, and see if Liz Weir still wants to run first, though."

[chasingangela]

"Kittens are good at that," Angela says, grinning. "They're, like, the cutest attention hogs ever."

"And I can't imagine Logan running. Cole, maybe, but honestly I think all he cares about right now are Phoebe and Angel." She makes a face. "Though I guess if Phoebe runs again, he might to be close to her."

"M is evidently making sure he doesn't sleep. Best investment ever. Heh." Parker grinned, then frowned. "Right. I think I've just talked myself into running again. Oh well. Posters and flyers tomorrow. Hangover recovery today."

[chasingangela]

"Let me know if you need help postering," Angela says, though she doesn't sound especially enthused by the prospect. Then again, she isn't all that enthusiastic about anything right then. "Hey, change in subject, but I was thinking about going to IKEA to buy stuff for my room sometime this week. You up for that?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Thanks, I'll let you know. And sure. What day?" Parker watches James blow something up, and is oddly soothed by the shiny fire. Pretty. "I didn't know there was an IKEA on the island."

[chasingangela]

"Cool. I was thinking Tuesday," Angela says. "You know, so we can buy the stuff and get back here before term starts. But it's not on the island, it's a couple miles inland." She frowns. "Do we need to get admin permission and bring a teacher during break, even?"
