5th floor common room, morning

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

A challenge had been issued, and Willow did not shrink from a challenge. Peter had wanted to know what was special about Willow cookies, and the only way to do that was to make them.

Plus Joxer could use another get well present, and there was the party tomorrow.

So after slipping invitations for Buffy, River, Kaylee, and Hermione under their doors, Willow headed to the fifth floor common room with grocery bags full of supplies and got to work.

Chocolate chip cookies didn't bake themselves after all.

After checking the lower floors for signs of life, Callisto wandered into the common room. She waved to the redhead as she flopped down on the couch. "Morning."

Dean picked a direction at random that morning, and wandered upstairs. Seeing a familiar redhead in the fifth floor common room, he stopped there.

"Hey Willow."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Morning," Willow said to the new person. "I'm Willow."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Dean!" Willow said. She held up a wooden spoon. "Want some cookie dough? I'm almost positive it's not teaming with salmonella."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Cookie dough? Sure, why not? I like living dangerously." He came over to get a better look at what she was doing. "You baking?

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Yep." Willow scooped some dough up on a plastic spoon and offered it to him. "Chocolate chip. I'm a girl on a mission."

Callisto frowned, Willow, Willow, there was something she was supposed to remember about a Willow. "Callisto," she said.

Callisto waved from her spot on the couch. "Morning."

Willow blinked. "Callisto like Angel's skanky non-Buffy girlfriend Callisto?"

Willow clearly had no sense of self-preservation. This comes as a surprise to absolutely no one who's met her.

Sam was on a mission to meet more new people, which involved leaving the second floor. Still, the common room was still the center of the universe. It was like a Fandom High rule of physics or something.

Plus, cookies. "Morning, all."

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Morning!" Willow said as she put a tray of cookies into the oven.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean took the spoon from her with a nod of thanks. "A mission with cookies."

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah, that.

"Skanky non-Buffy girlfriend," Callisto rubbed her forehead and reminded herself it was bad form to kill a student who wasn't even in her class. "That would be me."

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"What kind of cookies?" Sam asked, "oh, and I'm Sam Carter."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

One of these days, Dean thought, he will have actually met everybody. Apparently today was not going to be that day. "Morning," Dean replied. "I'm Dean," he added, to be polite and just in case she had met Alec to avoid confusion off the bat.

"Morning Carter," Callisto waved. "Slumming it?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

And another person he hadn't met, but hey, meeting new, blonde and pretty girls wasn't exactly something that ruined his morning. "Morning," he said, giving her a wide smile.

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"Callisto," she said. "Twin, clone or double?"

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"It's a hardship," she waved back. "Especially with all those stairs."

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Hi. I'm Sam Carter." She smiled back.

Willow looked her over. "I'm supposed to be bound by the BFF code not to offer you any cookies. But there's also Jewish guilt, so you're allowed to have some of the crumbly ones."

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"So that's the real reason you're on the second floor, too lazy to go any higher."

"Peter said that if I didn't give him cookies he could get cookies from Elizabeth," Willow said. "Clearly he needs to be taught that there is nothing that can replace Willow cookies in the hearts and stomachs of those who have had them."

"Willow Rosenberg," she said. "Chocolate chip. That plate's for Peter, that one's for Joxer, but the rest can be nibbled on if you like."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Only here, Dean thought with amusement, would that be a comprehensible greeting. "We think I might have provided some of Alec's DNA, but we're not sure." He shrugged. "Either that or God or whatever liked this face so much, he decided to spread it around."
