Rooms 239/240: Moving Day [After Classes]

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Even though Marty was given an invitation to move into Room 239/240 by Jack on Sunday, it wasn't until today that Marty finally found the time to pack up his belongings and start the migration to his new digs down the hall.

Sure... Some people would say he was crazy to give up a single but Marty couldn't resist the opportunity to figure out what those Colorado Refugees were trying to hide from the rest of the school.

Marty picked up his first box and looked over to Camilla.

"C'mon girl. Let's go meet our new roomies."

So together Marty and his pet chicken started the migration down the hallway.

Elizabeth's eyes were wide. "Um. Why?" she asked, moving towards Janet and handing her one of the cups.

[janet_fraiser]

"I have no idea!" exclaimed Janet, taking the cup gratefully. "Oh, God, thank you. I can't deal with this without coffee."

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

"Welcome," Elizabeth replied automatically. She looked at Janet. "Nice PJs."

[janet_fraiser]

Janet blushed. "I was out of clean laundry," she muttered. She really needed to buy herself some more clothing. Why hadn't she done that when they were in Chicago?

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

Elizabeth shrugged. "Happens to all of us," she said, before lowering her voice. "You could have been wearing worse. Think positive."

[janet_fraiser]

"I could have been wearing nothing," said Janet. "Wouldn't that have been embarrassing?"

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

"What? You wear nothing around Jack? No wonder he's such a perv."

[janet_fraiser]

"Jack's a perv because he's Jack," said Janet. "What do I care if I change around him? He's family, remember?"

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Jack's not a..." She blushed, remembering. "Er, nevermind, carry on with what you were saying."

[janet_fraiser]

Janet gave Sam a knowing look. "I think I was saying your boyfriend's a pervert."

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Right. Carry on."

[janet_fraiser]

"Where do you really go from there?" asked Janet. She snickered at Sam.

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

Sam grinned goofily. "Oh, there's places, trust me."

There was something odd about the conversation Marty just heard, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

[janet_fraiser]

Janet found nothing odd about the conversation. But she was pretty sure Marty was developing a facial tic of some kind.

"Hopefully you would have realized that before getting out of bed though. But yes. It would have been."

Elizabeth was very glad she'd woken up and gone for a run that morning.

"Given that Marty dropped everything when he walked in the room," said Janet, glaring at Marty. "And you know what I'm like during an emergency during an unscheduled offworld activation when I get startled, maybe not," said Janet. She sighed and pushed her hair behind her ears. She was starting to remember why she'd kept it short when she was an adult.

"Where'd you go this morning, anyway?"

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

"Of course at this point, I'd have to be asking why you were naked," Elizabeth pointed out, trying not to grin.

"Running, with Cam," she replied, eying Marty before unzipping her wind jacket.

[janet_fraiser]

"Luckily, I wasn't, so you don't need to ask," said Janet quickly. Thank God that Daniel never spent the night in the room. That would have been embarrassing.

"Sounds like fun," said Janet. "If a little too early for me. Especially on a Friday."

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

Elizabeth tried not to snicker.

"It was good, although I'm going to be sore tomorrow. Breaks in routine are bad. I should know that by now."

[janet_fraiser]

Janet just grinned at Liz.

"I'm trying to get back into the habit of running," she said. "Though probably during lunch. Sam and I were talking about it, if you ever miss in the morning and want to come along at noon?"

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

Elizabeth nodded. "Sounds like a good plan. Don't think I'll be joining you this lunchtime, but for the future, it's duly noted."

She placed her coffee down, and, ignoring Marty, started to stretch. "After Sunshine moved out, I was thinking of swimming, but not now. Wait until summer and go down to the ocean and swim there instead."

"You should probably just start doing your laundry while you're at Da..." Sam broke off, abruptly remembering Marty's presence, "doing your homework."

[janet_fraiser]

Janet had to tell Sam that Daniel was clearing out a drawer for some of her clothing. Of course, she could tell Sam that if Marty wasn't here.

"Yeah," said Janet. "I can do my homework in the laundry room. Especially my Classics homework. It's not like I won't have plenty of homework this semester, right?"

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, it's actually a pretty quiet place to study," Sam said, "plus it's warm and toasty and there's the soothing sound of the dryers to lull you right to sleep."
