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.

"The Yank Queen in person." Peter made a more elaborate bow with perhaps a mocking twist to it. If one was watching. When he stood up, he was a slight shade of red and keeping his eyes carefully on Parker's face.

Parker's smiled widened. "In the flesh, so to speak. I see you're not participating in shirtless day, English." She shook her head sadly. "It's that Brit reserve thing, isn't it? Alas. I suppose we'll have to wait 'til the end of summer for you to loosen up enough to participate."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"I hadn't heard tell of such an event so participating's a bit beyond my control at this point." Peter raised and eyebrow, "I take it shirtless is just for the males among us."

"I forgot to tell you!" Parker did a dramatic wrist-to-the-forehead move, then grinned. "And yes, just for the guys. Although I'm wearing a sports bra to show solidarity. And Z's being a good sport and getting used to her outfit, since some of the guys saw fit to tell her she should participate." She cocked her head. "It's not too late for you, English."

"I really am dreadfully wounded, you know." Peter winked with a grin. "It may well be too late as I've spent much of the day making sure that others knew that _I_ was not the Peter naked in the hallways. Wouldn't taking my shirt off now seem rather hypocritical?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker chortled. "See, it's all a matter of verb tense. You *weren't* that naked Peter. Now, you could become an only half-naked Peter, with a nametag that clearly says, 'English Peter.' Much more indicative of school solidarity, instead of the lone streaker who shocks the population without warning. I swear."

"School solidarity, is it? I certainly would not like to be accused of not supporting the school in all its endeavours. And I would not dream of questioning your word, of course." He raised an eyebrow.

"Why not? Everyone else does." Parker grinned. "But hey, we're attempting to integrate the new guys and the old through a simple standard of fashion similarity. Way simpler than team-building exercises. Or another invasion. How can that be wrong?"

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Wrong?" Peter shrugged. "Your logic, Miss Parker, is impeccable."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Yay!" Parker smiled expectantly at him. Camera-phone at the ready.

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"As you say." Peter shrugged again and removed his tunic. He bowed as the tips of his ears turned incandesently red. "I expect chocolate at some point."

Parker clapped, grinning widely. "And you damn well deserve it, English. Thank you *muchly* for being a good sport and supporting the school!"

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter turned bright red. "Never let it be said that I, Peter Pevensie, did not support my school fully." He looked at the tunic in his hand. "Now what do I do with this?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

*FLASH* And Zero and Angela get pix, yay!

Parker considered the tunic, and then said, "Wear it as a turban? Or possibly, use it as a flag? I'm sure Jaye would help you with that. Flags are her thing. With glitter."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Jaye? Glitter?" Peter's eyebrows rose. "Maybe I should give it to Jaye so she can throw it on random naked men she meets in the hallways. Is she here?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"She's around somewhere. Not here at the moment, though. Long dark hair, familiar voice-- she did the radio on Tuesday night and nicknamed you." Parker grinned. "I'd like to see her reaction to you wearing that nametag and no shirt. Could be entertaining."
