fandomhighdorms | Tuesday Night - 4th Floor Common Room

Ivanova limped into the common room. Her own was empty and she was looking for someone to complain to.

Ooh, Blair. He would make her feel better.

"Evening, Blair!" she greeted him cheerfully.

"Stella!" Blair looked up and waved muddy fingers at her. "Come play in the dirt with me!"

[I so typed 'come get dirty with me' and then thought better of it]

"Anytime!" Ivanova carefully lowered herself to the ground, folding her good leg under her and stretching the other out straight. "I didn't know you were into plants. Although I should have guessed."

[[*cracks up* Sentinel's on in an hour! You so got me hooked

Blair handed her a plastic spoon and yogurt cup. "Here's your shovel and flower pot, and..." He dug a seed out of his pocket and handed it over. "Something to put in it!"

"Hank is still hiding in his pot. But I'm thinking he needs a changed of scenary. I got this pot with the truck on the side in town today." He held it up. "Do you think it's too much of a stereotype?"

[Really?! Where are you watching it? Do you like it?]

Ivanova snickered as she took her tool and began transferring some potting soil. "Hank?" She looked at the pot, cocking her head. "A dump truck for a boy-plant? No, not a cliche at all," she said, sarcastically deadpan.

[[Space, the Canadian Sci-Fi channel. I like it. I had actually first heard of it when reading some Jack/Daniel slash and Jack's mum wrote Sentinel slash for fun. Sam and Janet were on the same mailing list.]]

Blair grinned. "No kidding, I didn't want to ask if the guy had anything else. I don't think he likes me too much. So how's your day been?"

[I'm SO jealous right now! I haven't seen the show in such a long time. But DVD's of the first season come out in April!]

"Really? Where did you get it?" She couldn't imagine anyone dislike the bouncy boy. Then she sighed. "Not great. I got an uplink from home."

"That All and Sunday...Sundries..something. That Blackadder dude just seems grumpy." Blair bounced. "Oooh! Maybe I should send him some chocolate!"

"Uplink? Is that like a message? It wasn't good?"

After stopping by Blair's room and finding him not there, Molly decided to check the common rooms starting with his own. ~~What a shock that she found him so easily.~~

"Blair. Hi! Just who I was looking for," she said when she spotted him.

"Molly!" Blair grinned happily up at her. "You were looking for me? That's so cool!"

"All and Sundries? I was in there today, too, and he seemed very nice. Offered to carry things and have things delivered for me. Pretty friendly smile, too."

She raised her unslinged hand to display the small electronic patch on the back of it. "Sorry. This is a link. Sort of a cellphone and computer combined. So uplinks are calls, only this one was prerecorded. And it was on an official military channel and ordering me home."

Blair shrugged and winked. "Maybe he's got a thing for tall beautiful women."

He stared at her hand and then up at her face. "Home? You're leaving?"

She grinned at the compliment, then sighed again, slumping and spilling a bit of her potting soil. "Hopefully not permanently. I made the mistake of tellling my comm- my friends about my injuries, so I'm being recalled so that Dr. Franklin can personally fuss over me like a mother hen."

"Yep!" She said as she came to sit on the floor with him. "I was hoping that we could start the tutoring thing soon. I keep signing up on lists, but not a lot happens. I know that last one hasn't been up that long, but I really need help with studying."

Blair thought for a moment, then nodded. "So the people at home care about you enough to want to check up on you? Ivanova, that rocks! What a cool way to show they love you!"

"And you can't go home for good." He pointed at the yogurt cup. "I'm keeping your plant here, so you'll have to come back."

"Yeah, the student council thing is moving a bit slow, but I guess that's to be expected with any form of government." He thought for a minute. "How about some evening this week? I don't think I have anything going on expect work on Friday night."

Ivanova tilted her head. "I never thought about it that way. You do seem to have a way of finding the good side to everything. And it will be nice to see everyone again, get back to the station."

She pressed her seed into the soil with her thumb and began covering it with more soil. "I'll be back by the end of March Break or I'm resigning my commission and sneaking back here anyways."

"Thursday would be better than tomorrow for me. My last class is Dr. Jackson's and I only have Creature Languages before that."

"It's not hard to see the good side of that situation. I'm happy you get to go back and see old friends and places. You can look at like a renewel."

"Sneak back with gifts." Blair grinned and bounced, flicking some dirt at Ivanova. "Because travel always involves gifts. And snacks. When do you leave?"

"Yeah, tomorrow is busy for me too. Angel is teaching me self defense tomorrow morning and then I've got classes."

"So Thursday? Can you bring all your notes from class?"

"Gifts are definitely on the agenda," Ivanova replied with a grin. "I'll hit the Zokolo - that's the main marketplace on the station - as soon as I get back. What would you like, Blair? Statues of Centauri gods? Minbari windchimes? A copy of the teachings of the Narn prophets?

"Oh, and I'm getting picked up on Thursday."

Blair blinked. "Really? You're going to buy something for me? That's...that's..." He blinked again then bounced up and gave Ivanova a hug. "You're amazing!" He sat back down and bounced again. "Whatever you want, I'm really interested in history stuff."

"Thursday. Okay. I can probably get some snacks ready for you by then!"

"Ow, ow, ow, shoulder!" Ivanova yelped, but she was laughing and hugged him back with the other arm. "History stuff, got it. I'll see what I can pick up for you. And snacks would be great. Earth food is rather expensive back home. Especially coffee. I may go into withdrawal."

[[It's on! *glees* And what is Blair doing in Cop-dude's apartment in the middle of the night with a Cree fishing spear? *waggles eyebrows*]]

Molly was going for innocent, but looked a little guilty when she said, "yeah, I'll bring all my notes. No problem."

"You're going to learn self defense from Angel?" She asked with interest. "He's a good teacher. He showed me how to use my stake," she added with a grin.

Blair nodded seriously. "Coffee. I totally understand that. I'll see what I can do."

[I don't know what you're saying...The Sentinel has no slashy subtext. At all. ;) ]
