2nd Floor Common Room

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker's not watching Bitterwoman any more. Graduation was too traumatic. There's a Z-Cases marathon in the common room and she's settled in with popcorn.

Let's see if the new kids like disaffected FBI agents and squirrelly but hot Russian agents.

"Most of them seem a bit more... typical? than the last group," she admits. "Though I haven't met everyone."

Elizabeth nods. "Yeah, I know what you mean. Should be interesting to see how they react and adapt to this place."

[can_be_more]

"At least they have warning..."

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

"I'm not sure some will heed those warnings though," Elizabeth shrugs. "One guy - Greg - was convinced I was hazing him."

[can_be_more]

She frowns. "Hazing?"

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

"It's harrassment or abuse or humiliation as an initiation," Elizabeth explains. "It's not very nice and is forbidden in most places now."

[can_be_more]

"Good," Aeryn replies. "There have to be better ways to initiate someone into a group."

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

"Oh, God, yes," Elizabeth nods in agreement. "I think if there was any actual hazing in Fandom, the admin would step in pretty quickly though."

"If the other students didn't. I can't see anyone standing for that sort of thing." She pauses. "And if they did, they wouldn't be standing for long."

"Well, yeah, true," Elizabeth nods. "Thankfully we're a pretty sane lot on the whole, so I don't really see it being a problem."

"Although the temptation to tell some of those new guys that we have a Shirtless Day every Friday is really, really strong."

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

Elizabeth snickered. "I'll buy you a new pair of shoes if you do."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Oooo. Gucci?"

[can_be_more]

"Oh, no," Aeryn says. "Do not make these people be shirtless any more than they have to be."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"But Aeryn, they're pretty. And they can always hide in their rooms," Parker protested.

[can_be_more]

"No. Be good."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker pouted extravagantly. "Wings told you to stop me from being evil while he's gone, didn't he? Bastard."

[can_be_more]

"No, but I think that would go without saying."

"It's good to know you'd be there to take me down, should I ever be possessed by an alien intelligence or a malevolent demonic entity. Less so when you thwart me over a simple tiny head-messing with the newbies. Alas."

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

Elizabeth thought for a moment. "Yes. At what I judge to be a reasonable price though."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Ooo." Parker cut Aeryn a look, then whispered in Italian, "//Find me a victim, and we'll talk.//"

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

"//Most certainly. Hell, with some of the new guys around? Might even find a willing one!//" Elizabeth replied under her voice.

Aeryn has superior hearing. They get an eyebrow raise.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"What?" Parker attempts to look innocent. It's pretty ludicrous.

[can_be_more]

"I can hear you." Gotta love translator microbes.
