Second Floor Hallways

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Jack begins decorating the hallway with streamers, ballons, flowers, and signs that read "H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y P A R K E R !!!!!" There might be coded messages in the signs along the lines of the fact that the second floor rocks the house down. Or maybe not.

Feel free to help him.

Lee joins up with Jack and admires his decorations. "Need any help there, Jack?"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"Always. Can you stretch that streamer over to the top of that door?" Jack hands Lee a baby blue streamer and points to the top of a door halfway down the hallway.

Lee nods and takes the streamer. And pretends that he's tall enough to put it on the top of the door. "How's it going, Jack? Did you get your memories back?"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Jack kicks over a stepstool. "Here, use this. I don't expect you to, you know, be able to stretch out your limbs like they're made out of rubber." He stops and thinks. "None of the new students can do that, right? Because that would be handy right now."

Jack drags out another stepstool and starts twining mint green and lavendar streamers around the baby blue one. "Yup, got my memory back. I know all and remember all. How was your holiday? Did you go home?"

Hearing Jack's voice, Angel poked his head out of his door. He spotted the sign.

"Hey, Jack. Didn't you misspell 'Maureen'?"

Krycek looks out into the hallway from his room (230), blinking at the streamers until he remembers the e-mail that Angela sent out. "...Nice decorations. Need help still?"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"No, because I am *friends* with Parker and respect her decision to call herself what she likes. I respect all my friends like that. Snookums. Plus, I really like the part where all my limbs are attached." Jack grins and drapes a hot pink streamer over Angel's head.

"Thanks!" Lee says, grabbing the step stool and wishing he was tall and not so wee.

"I don't think we have any really stretchy students. Flexible yes," and he chuckles, "Stretchy, I don't think so."

"Glad you got your memory back, that was troubling!" Lee replies. "Home... yeah, I went home. Let us never speak of /that/ again..."

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"Oh, yeah. I so need like five more hands. Er... I'm speaking metaphorically. I don't want to sprout extra limbs or anything. By the way, I've seen you around but I don't think I've ever introduced myself. Jack Harkness. Today, I'm an interior decorator."

"Okay, you know this is not my coloring," Angel said. He took the streamer off and gamely reached up to tack it to the hallway wall. "Washes me out."

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Jack winces in sympathy. "Ooooo. Sorry. Say no more. Um... new, non-painful topic... school. What classes are you going to sign up for?"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"Yes, Angel, but the streamers don't come in black. Okay, they do, but the line works better if they don't. Besides, while I know Parker is fond of her basic black, it seemed a little inappropriate for her birthday." Jack holds a length of bright yellow next to Angel's face. "You really are more of a winter, aren't you?"

Parker comes to a dead stop, blinking.

Then she smiles, slowly and gleefully. "Jaaaaack. I looooove you, you big goofball! When did I tell you it was my birthday today?"

She bounces in place, making Esme hide inside the carryall again because she's getting motion sick.

If Parker hugged people, she'd be hugging Jack. As it is? He is *so* likely to get lucky sometime soon.

"Jack!" John's all nice and clean after his swim in the pool. "Decorations for the party? You're so sweet."

[leeadama.livejournal.com]

"Errr, soch of violence, probably, and some history courses," he replies. "You?"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Jack grins at her and loops a length of streamer around her. "A little birdy told me. Happy Birthday, Parker. Does this mean you need a rename token for your username to make it mparker17?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker does a victory dance, right there in the hallway. "Tell the birdy they rock! I was just going to ask for a cake in-town tonight, but this is so cool! And yes, I think that might be a good idea, you know?"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"Well, I need to take the upper-level Quantum Physics, but I promised I'd also take Western Lit, and they're conflicting. So I don't know what to do. History? History is boring. I wanna know what's going to happen next, not what already happened."

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Jack tosses him a bag of ballons. "Here, hot-air boy. Blow these up."

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"So do I get to kiss the birthday girl?" Jack asks with a sly grin.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"I'm not full of hot air!" But John obeys and starts blowing up balloons. He might let one go right behind Jack's back though.

[leeadama.livejournal.com]

Lee shrugs. "I'd just like to more about this 13th colony and how it got to be so backwards," he says.

[krycek-rat.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, probably should watch what you wish for, here," Krycek smirked. "Alex Krycek. Today I might be any number of things."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Oh, you get a kiss. But *no* spankings!" Parker said threateningly, still grinning. "I know where your mind goes, Jack Harkness. And no asking for dances in my birthday suit, either!"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Jack raises his hands, palm out. "Hey, I think I'm being unfairly maligned. I'll dance with you in my birthday suit, if you'd rather."
