Second Floor Common Room

[pyramid-is-life.livejournal.com]

Kara lounges in the second floor common room flipping through the channels. There is a big bowl of chips and several chilled root beers on the table. The usual busy common room had been pretty quiet this week. She wonders if people were still recuperating from the weekend or if it was something else.

She might think more of it, but AKA is starting and Kara is quickly distracted.

Lee comes in, sinks down on the couch without a word and smells slightly of nailpolish remover.

Kara's nose cringes and she glances over at Lee. "Do I wanna know?"

"Never going back to the library. Ever," he says, pulling her over to squish him sit on him and he presses his face against her back. "Apparently I need to get in touch with my masculine side."

Parker comes in on "manly and impressive", and she'd roll her eyes, but it's too funny. "Hey." She grabs a root beer, then catches sight of what's on TV. "Ooo, AKA. Cool."

She flops down next to Lee.

"Parker," mutters Kara.

She does roll her eyes.

"Welcome back." Parker gave her an evil smile. "Glad Caprica could spare you, Thrace."

Rory came in and flopped on the couch beside Parker, not looking at Lee.

And not giggling.

Parker poked her in the side. "You're in a good mood."

After Dark, Outside

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

From outside, there was the sound of some enthusiastic, if slightly offkey, singing. He really did better with a band, but Lorne and Agatha seemed to think this was the way to go.

You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your liiiiips.
And there's no tenderness like before in your fingertiiiiips.
You're trying hard not to show it, (baby).
But baby, bay bee I know it...

You've lost that lovin' feeling,
Whooooooa, that lovin' fee-heel-ling,
You've lost that lovin' feeling,
Now it's gone...gone...gone...wooooooh.

Buh dum, buh dum, buh dum, bah dum dum....

"Do you hear that?"

Parker has this ugly feeling of deja vu.

"Someone likes Top Gun," Rory noted with a grin as she crossed to the window gleefully.

"I heard it, but what the frak is it?" Anders pokes his head in from the hallway, looking genuinely horrified.

Angela hears the voice floating up outside her window and wanders down to the second floor in hopes of finding the source.

She peers out the window. "Is that Jarod?"

Re: After Dark, Outside

"Because I live in Hell, yes." Parker is glaring out the window, and making homicidal gestures.

Re: After Dark, Outside

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Jarod loves her, Ange," Rory said seriously.

Re: After Dark, Outside

[jarodpretends.livejournal.com]

Jarod, hamming it up now, got down on one knee and continued warbling:

Now there's no welcome look in your eyes
when I reach for yooooooo.
And now your're starting to critisize little things I do.
It makes me just feel like cry-hing, (baby).
'Cause bay bee, something in you is die-hing.

You lost that lovin' feeling,
Whoooooooa, that lovin' feeling,
You've lost that lovin' feeling,
Now it's gone...gone...gone...woooooah

This is not funny.

Nope.

Not at all. Really.

"So. Very. Dead. Jarod."

After visiting Professor Skeeter's office, Fraser had been walking around the campus when the sounds of singing had attracted his attention. Following the sound, he comes upon a young man down on one knee singing in front of the dorms.

Fraser approaches and eyes the man curiously. "Excuse me? Might I ask why you're singing to the dormitory?"

Pippi applauds from the 5th floor.

Final Part of the Grand Gesture

[just-add-starch.livejournal.com]

Fraser, having volunteered to help Jarod out, removes his hat carefully.

"Miss Parker?" Fraser calls. "I believe this young man has a few more words for you."

He clears his throat, loosening his collar.

Baby baby I get down on my knees for you
If you would only love me like you used to do
We had a love
A love a love you don't find every day
So don't...don't...don't let it slip away

Throughout the lyrics, he gesture towards the window and Jarod with his hat at appropriate moments.

Bring back that loving feeling
Oh, that loving feeling
Bring back that loving feeling
Now it's gone...gone...gone...
And I can't go on...
No-oh-oh...

The dramatic climax and Fraser salutes with his hat before bowing.

Rory allowed herself, for just a moment, to pretend that the Mountie was singing to her.

It was a very happy time.

Constable Fraser's really cute. And he has a better voice than Jarod.

And, at this point, Parker's just about exhausted the tantrum. Plus she can't believe Jarod got Fraser to do this.

"Oh for the love of....." She starts laughing.

"The Mountie's not a bad singer," Peter said.

Having had her fill of Parker mockage, Kara wanders away from the main activity and over to Anders. "Hey, haven't seen you in awhile," she says.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, that might kinda be on account of you were gone," he says lightly. "Heard you went home. What happened?"
