Early afternoon, Friday, 1st floor lobby

[soldtoarmenians]

Well, it's sort of Xander's common room now. In the way that it belongs to everybody, and most of his associations with it involve certain red-clad authority figures more than other students, and there's no kitchen. But anyway.

There's a kitchen in 121. He made brownies. Yes, from a box. They're on the table by the tv.

Which is playing a classic black&white First Mister episode of Mr. What, because it's a little late to try convincing anybody around here that he's not a geek.

With a purple frog. Who's watching from his tank on a conveniently-placed end table. Actually Jeremiah probably has the better view.

"Usually there's a big crowd on the second floor, yeah, but there's so many new people that the other floors are getting used too and parties are a frequent occurence and camp sounds like it's gonna be fun." Bridge fires back.

"Really?" she squeaks, her pitch rising, "That's fantastic because I brought the best outfit for a beach party and I have some fantastic shoes too, plus I make super snack things and I just love to have fun with other people and it seems like everyone's like that hare." she said with wide, sparkling eyes. "Are you from California?"

"Born and raised, ma'am," Bridge nods.

She bounced a little and clapped as Bruiser looked distinctly pained. "Isn't that great? I am too! I could tell because you sound like home and not like all the stuffy people at Harvard who were all Aristotle and precedent and they don't even really have parties, just study groups. Massachusettes is a whole other world." she explained. "Why is everyone here calling me ma'am? Do I need to wear frumpy clothes, because I don't think I can do that."

Xander raised a hand to stop Bridge from answering, and took a deep breath. Then let it out.

"Sorry, just wanted to get some of the oxygen while there was still any left. Carry on."

Elle blinked at him and grinned, "You're so funny, Xander."

[soldtoarmenians]

"Thanks! I try. " Xander smiled. "I'm from California too, by the way. Sunnydale."

"Oooh, For real?" she beamed, "I don't know where that is, but it's totally like old home week! We should have a California-style beach party and show these people what we're all about!"

[soldtoarmenians]

"That's a good idea." Xander grinned. "Maybe not in mid-May in Virginia, though." He rolled his eyes. "What the hell, east coasters. Beaches should be warm."

Nodding emphatically, she tipped her head to the side, "You're so right. But I've kinda gotten used to the cold eastern beaches up in Massacusettes. I think the weather is half the reason we never had beach parties at Harvard. Well, that and the lack of a beach close by and the fact that everyone was studying all the time."
