Animal-Balancing Contest (evening, FHT - first floor lobby)

Rory arrived in the lobby balancing a tank with a wee turtle in it against one hip, a box from J,GOB in the opposite arm, and a flying puppy on a leash leading her.

She tied Vladdie to the leg of a table, set Yoda's tank and the cake down, and looked around to see what she still needed to set up.

[Yes, even crack-addled ideas like this need OCD threads. Wait for 'em. They're up, but play on the contest itself won't start until 5:30 EST.

ETA: And yes, it originally said it was in the afternoon. This is now set about 8:30 PM FHT.

SON OF ETA: You can eat cake now. Rufus is here!]

"I fear you, Crichton. I fear that someday, someone will give you a driver's license, or money to create some project, or possibly access to the materials to make your warped little version reality actual, and then, then..." Parker nodded. "I'm movin' to Caprica."

"It'll be good," John promises. "And people like me for my warped version of reality. They laugh at me all the time!"

"Yessss." Parker was grinning. "That's why you're so terrifying, Crichton. YOu might start something." She cocked her head and looked at the contest in front of her. "Fortunately, around her, it's probably just a trend toward animal transformation."

"And you love me for it," John points out. "John and Parkie forever."

The eyeroll there was getting close to cross-eyes. "If I knew this Parkie person, I'd have her locked up for her own good."

"You don't love me, Parkie?" John flails and places his hand over his heart. "I'm wounded. Wounded, I say!"

"John-boy, I don't love anybody. Haven't you heard?"

John totally start singing. "Everybody loves somebody sometimes..."

"Oh, I am soooo outta here. Say good-night, John-boy."

John just grins stupidly. "You can't leave me. Your heart belongs to me!"

"I don't have a heart. I have a pocket calculator." Parker waved to John. "I'm asking Aeryn how she puts up with you!"

"Aeryn has experience," John tells her. "Lots of experience. And patience."

"The woman's a saint. I may nominate her for that. And tell her." Parker grinned. "To see the look on her face."

"She is a saint," John says and he's serious for this one because he can't help it. "And she deserves her accolades."

Parker smirked. "Your saving grace, John-boy. Watching you around her. It's spared your life. With me, anyway."
