2nd Floor Common Room [Friday Evening]

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge is in the Common Room, standing on his head and trying to read from a textbook.

The TV is on, providing appropriate background noise.

ETA:Now with King Arthur playing on the TV!

[ooc: open for all!]

"Bridge dude!" Anders bounces in with his nightly delivery of cupcakes and sets them down on the table with a flourish. "Sugary goodness ahoy!"

He proceeds to stand on his head across from Bridge. "Whatcha readin'?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Stuff 'bout Egypt. Like, their art. Sphinxes are cool!" He grins. "And yay, cupcakes! I will totally have some as soon as I am done this chapter!"

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders grins and flips back onto his feet (only not literally), then retrieves a green-sprinkled chocolate cupcake which he places in front of Bridge. "Motivation, dude."

[chasingangela]

Angela grins at Anders. "Hey, are those cupcakes for everyone, or are they, like, special Callynandersnbridge only baked goods?"

Rory stared.

"No, no, no do not include Bridgey in their smushy name!" she flailed.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory wandered in and fell onto a couch.

"Yo."

[chasingangela]

Angela raises a palm. "Yo yourself. So what's a duckling? I saw you at that table but you seemed kind of swarmed."

"It's an acronym. Thingy for looking up community service for people with free time."

Rory did not look at Anders, Rory did not look at Anders, Rory did not look at Anders....

Zero tilts her head at him. "Um...Bridge? Doesn't it work better right-side-up?" She wonders if his book is upside down, too, which would make it work out, but she's too far away to tell.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Nah. Thinking's easier when you're upside-down!" Bridge grins. He'd bounce, but... upside-down.

[chasingangela]

Angela comes in holding her head and flops into a chair. "Why am I taking four classes in one day on a Friday? It's, like, cruel and unusual punishment."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge hands Angela a cupcake. "Definitely an effort that deserves a cupcake," he says solemnly.

[swerval_zero]

From her upside-down position, Zero says, "Three for me. An' two of 'em are doubles." She kicks her feet around a little to keep her balance.

Molly came in and sat down on the floor. "Hey, Bridge. Any exploring plans for tonight?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Hat-Girl-Molly!" Bridge said cheerfully. "I dunno. Depends if enough people wanna go."

[fh_jackass]

"Hey, Molly," Logan said, spotting her by her hat. He sat down on the couch near her. "How are you doing?"

Cordy came into the common room and flopped down in a chair, sighing.

"Hey," she said randomly to the room, giving a little wave.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Cordy, Cordy, Cordy!" Bridge says, bouncing over. "Hi!"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Hi, I'm Isabel. I don't think we've met yet."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

In search of something to do since the 4th floor common room was dead, Isabel wandered down to the 2nd floor.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Isabel!" Bridge says, bouncing over to say hi. "What's up?"

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

Sam wandered into the common room. "Whoa, people."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Hi Sam!" Bridge says cheerfully. "We're going back up to the 6th floor in a bit, wanna come?"

King Arthur-- the movie! (Thank you, Cleolinda and m15m)

Parker was feeling the climb from the adventuring, but wasn't tired enough to sleep yet, so after grabbing Vala, and leaving a voicemail for Lee, she trekked down to the common room and put the DVD for King Arthur (http://community.livejournal.com/m15m/4794.html) in the player.

She grinned as she grabbed a bowl of popcorn.


Very Serious Text That Would Never, Ever Lie to You

VERY SERIOUS TEXT: Recent historical evidence suggests that Arthur was actually some Roman guy named Arturius. This, therefore, is a completely historically accurate movie, because God knows you can count on a Bruckheimer flick for your history lessons.


Mystical Voiceover

LANCELOT: So, back in the day there were these Sarmatians, and they got their asses kicked but the Romans respected the fact that they were tough bastards, so they let them live, only they had to be knights, and their sons, and their sons, and they all got their asses kicked and reincarnated into warrior horses and shit, and so on and so forth until I say, yea verily, better had those men died than have their descendants end up in this movie. And then it got to be my turn, and it was much of the suck.

[All cuts of this are thanks to the amazing Cleolinda and m15m; and if you've seen the movie, feel free to introduce your own snark]

"God, these guys are hot."

"Yeah," Vala agrees. "Uh, we don't have to take notes on this or anything, do we?"
