2nd Floor Common Room (Tuesday)

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

Elizabeth had added her poster next to Parker's.

It was her only poster at the moment. There was no point in plastering the school with them if she decided not to run in the end.


Vote Elizabeth Weir as Junior Student Council Representative


She headed back to the corner table where she had started her jigsaw puzzle last week.

She looked distracted, and occassionally glanced across at the poster. Why was she running? Was it because she felt that she should?


[[Come and help with the puzzle, or, if anyone wouldn't mind trying to talk her out of this emo funk she's got herself into, that would be very much appreciated!]]

Jack chuckles and rubs his hands together. "So many of the student body to do... I mean, meet, so little time."

Snickering, Parker said, "I really wish you *had* been there Sunday night. It would've been even more interesting. I owe Anders for the kissing dare, but Rory's the one who suggested Jaye give Archie a lapdance. I should get them coffee or cookies." She scowled. "And a great big bat for Thrace. Bitch."

"Hey, that's my roomie. Not that I've seen her much. What happened?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"I told her my first name, and let me think she was going to keep it to herself. She told the whole common room. Twice. Grrrr." Her eyes narrowed. "She's gonna regret that."

Parker shook herself. "Anyway. Watching Rory's brain break as Cally made her say, 'I solemnly swear that I believe Cally and Anders have sex' was *almost* worth the price of admission. Almost."

Jack cracks up again. "Oh, God. Messing with people's minds is the most fun you can have with your clothes on."

Parker's grin went back to gleeful. "I also told Rory we were, ahem, fuckbuddies, because she insisted on thinking you were my 'boyfriend'. If she starts in on that again, just hit her with a pillow, okay? She's got Romeo and Juliet on the brain."

Jack groans. "Oh, hell. Not that I wouldn't fall at your dainty feet, Parker, but... yeah. You're one of my best friends. I'd kill or die for you, but that ain't love."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Thank you. And right back atcha. But Jesus." Parker shook her head, sighing. "And see? If you said that to Rory? She'd start picking out wedding rings for us. What's that about?"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"Um... I suppose the romantic idea that everyone must desperately want to be paired off, two by two, like in Noah's arc?" Jack shrugs in bafflement. "Not that I knock love, or anything, but... what's the line? 'Men have died and worms have eaten them, but not for love'?" Checks to make sure it's not Hamlet, whew, As You Like it.

"Exactly. I don't get romance," Parker complained. "I just don't. After Michael, the big faker, I don't think any of those gestures are worth as much as laughs and sex." She shook her head. "I won't hit on people who are paired up, because people get cranky, but it sure as hell reduces the amusement pool."

"Gah. Tell me about it. I just fled from Cam and Vala's room, because apparently Cam is still furious that I slept with Vala, like, six weeks before they were ever a couple. I can't even be friends with her anymore, apparently, even though she knows better than anyone what went down when my memory went all wipey, and seriously helped me out."

"Oh, that's ridiculous." Parker shook her head. "Cam's sweet, but he's so... young. I laid a kiss on him while we were sparring yesterday, and I thoght he was going to spontaneously combust there for a second."

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"We should get him drunk. Just to relax him. You know? Seriously, some of the people here are going to implode from taking things too seriously. They should kick back and relax, mon." Jack grins. "Now there's an idea for a theme dance. Jamaican holiday!"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Oooooo. Now that is a great idea. Vote for me, and there will be more Caribbean dances!" Parker proclaimed, waving a pen in the air. "Or possibly, a trip to Jamaica itself! If I can get the administration to go for it," she added in her normal voice, reaching out to pat Sean on the head.

"Hey, you've got my vote. And I bet you look great in a bikini. I mean, I know you look great out of one, so..." Jack leers cheerfully.

Whizzzzz! again, although Parker wasn't really aiming for him, and she's grinning as the pen goes airborne.
