2nd Floor Common Room - Starting Late Afternoon - PARTY!

Logan had hooked up his gamestation to the flatscreen TV and was playing a videogame involving a lot of women in bikinis bouncing up and down. He was drinking a non-descript beverage from a plastic cup, and anyone within two feet of him would notice the odor of tequila wafting off him.

A couple of coolers with beverages (all non-alcoholic) were set up around the room, and bags of chips and other snack foods were laid out on the table.

"I wouldn't say 'scared.' I'm mindful that she can conjure fire, and I'd rather she didn't do so to me," Peter explained. "Also, I try to show respect for my teachers. Sometimes I fail, though." Peter may have been smirking. He might one day call Skeeter "Rita," If he were annoyed enough.

"I try to show respect," John says, shrugging. "You're a better man than I, Peter Parker. Dude, how have people not mixed up you and Maureen yet?"

Peter smiled a little. "One, she's a girl, two she's taller, three my hair isn't long or dark enough, and four she goes by Parker, I go by Peter." Peter shrugged. "I'm surprised nobody has assumed we're related, though."

Now John's wondering about that.

"Are you related?"

"Nope, no relation," Peter said. "I walked right into that question, didn't I?"

[identity profile] whitedeathpod.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
"Yep," John replies. "And good thing. Parker's kinda scary. Be weird to be related to her and see that scary on a daily basis."

Shrugging again, John asks, "Plans for this weekend?"

"I think I got on her bad side teasing her about her would-be boyfriend yesterday," Peter said. "Oh well."

"Not much for this weekend. I have something to do for the paper. I'm interviewing Dean Zordon."

[identity profile] whitedeathpod.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
That immediately gets John's attention.

"Dean Zordon who lives in the tube?" John asks. "Really? What about?"

[identity profile] peter--parker.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
"He lives in a tube?" Peter asked, confused. "It's just a short 'Getting to know you' kind of thing. A tube?"

[identity profile] whitedeathpod.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, dude, a tube." John nods, making a tube like motion. "He's this...giant head in a tube. He's suspended by nothing. Just a head in a tube."

[identity profile] peter--parker.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
"Huh. I wonder how that works," Peter said. "Sounds like pretty heady stuff."

The pun makes him laugh. He can't help it.

"Dunno. I asked him and he wouldn't tell me. He wanted to give me schematics but then I drew a picture of something and he kinda kicked me out."

[identity profile] peter--parker.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
"That's useful for me to know," Peter said. "Don't give him pictures or the interview might end."

Peter really didn't want to know what John had drawn.

"He's a nice guy but it's just an odd sight," John says, thinking back on his last visit to Zordon. "Tell him John says hello!"

"I'll be sure to," Peter said, noting to say it at the end of the interview. "Are there any other faculty members you've impressed this much?"

[identity profile] whitedeathpod.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
"Hmmm." John considers that. "Not really. I think Professor Macgyver likes me and I am Professor Ted's TA but nothing like the Professor Skeeter or Dean Zordon. I'm a likeable guy, really!"

"Hey, I believe you," Peter said. "I'm just not if sure the teachers agree."

[identity profile] whitedeathpod.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
John laughs. "Hey, Parker, your not!sister loves me too. If that's not a smashing endorsement," John says, taking on a faux British accent, "I don't know what is."

[identity profile] peter--parker.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
"Seriously, stick with the first name. It makes things so much easier," Peter said. "But that endorsement definitely is... smashing. I guess. If you want to be British about it."

"Professor Skeeter's British-like," John explains, "so I'm practicing in case I have to track down British type information about her and Mr. Skeeter."

[identity profile] peter--parker.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
Peter started laughing. A lot. "Have you used the accent on her?"

[identity profile] whitedeathpod.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
"No," John says, tapping his chin. "Think I should?"

[identity profile] peter--parker.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
"As long as you take full credit for the idea - and I insist that you do - I think it could be interesting to see what happens," Peter said, grinning.

[identity profile] whitedeathpod.livejournal.com 2006-02-04 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
"I bet she'd like me even more," John says, grinning as well. "I could even adopt a British name. Peter's pretty British. Can I borrow that name for a day?"

"Go with Nigel," Peter said immediately. "You don't get much more British than Nigel."
