2nd Floor Common Room, Afternoon into Evening

[aka-vala.livejournal.com]

Vala has no classes today, but hanging out in the room alone is just too depressing. And she could hear Cam in the TA lounge when she swung by. Plus at lunch she stopped by Dewey's office and found out she somehow got cast in the damned school play. As if her Crissmass solo wasn't enough.

Not having managed to run into Rory, Cordelia, or Jake yet today, she's given up and flopped down on the common room couch to watch Classic Galaxy Quest reruns while she waits for the new ep of Spooky Things to come on.

Come. Feed her. Entertain her. Get snarked at by her. It's a crapshoot, really....

"Uh, thanks," Vala frowned distractedly. "But I have it on good authority that Jake here specializes in impressions, and can do a pretty convincing girl if he puts his mind to it."

"Okay, whoa, I'm confused now. Revenge? Impressions?" Cally blinks a few times. "Maybe you can... un-audition? I mean, it didn't look like you were that important to the play, not that I have room to say, what with being a lobster and all, but... there's gotta be a happy solution to this, right?"

"Are you saying he auditioned me and got me a lousy part?" Vala actually thought 'Kickass Ninja' sounded like a starring role.

"Maybe? It just seemed low on the list?" Cally says. "It could be very, very important. I don't know."

Vala wasn't getting any happier here....

"So, how's stuff going with Cam? You two go on any cute dates recently?" Cally grasps at straws. Sadly, those straws are the kind that bite.

It takes a second for Vala to process that one. "What, do you and Anders live under a rock? A very cute rock?" She glares. "Cam and I broke up last week, thanks for caring."

Vala might be a bit stressed and emotional at the moment.

"Oh frak," Cally covers her mouth. "I'm so sorry. And... yes we do?" She hopes making herself look dumb might give Vala some sort of comfort or something. It's not exactly the best logic, but it's what she was born with.

"Whatever," Vala decides, slumping back down on the couch, grabbing the remote, and flipping to a Bitterwoman rerun instead. Just because she can.

"Erm... anything I can do to cheer you up?" Cally fidgets a little. "We could, like, do that whole girly thing involving ice cream?"

[aka-vala.livejournal.com]

Vala sighed. "Nah, I'm not feeling very girly tonight. Thanks for offering though." She grimaced. "Sorry I snapped at you."

"S'okay," Cally says with a shrug. "Anders and I kinda do live under a rock." Cally scratches the back of her neck and starts backing towards the door. "Well, I'll leave you with the TV, I guess. Don't wanna say anything stupider or something."

"Nah, it's o.k., you can stay." She sighed standing up and turning over the remote. "I think I'm going to turn in early."

Cally tosses the remote onto the couch. "Me too, I think. Anders might be wonderin' where I am. Catch you later, Vala."
