5th floor common room - Tuesday morning

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

River hadn't slept that well. Not bad dreams this time, just her mind being at full speed and refusing to turn itself off for sleep mode. Hence she was tired in the morning with a mind still racing.

Someone had left a pot of blue paint in one of the common room cupboards. Perhaps it was the blue colour, or perhaps it was just sleep deprivation, but River felt suddenly inspired. She chose a wall and proceeded to pain a huge blue octopus on it, with some of the longer arms continuing on to the floor and ceiling.

"Awesome! Well, not the eye. But the game! Totally awesome."

"It is," Tyler said. "The game, not the eye."

He paused. "When do you think the cheerleaders will have a routine? I'd kind of like to play before this summer session ends and we lose too much momentum."

"Maybe next week?" Buffy suggested, possibly overly optimistically.

Tyler was also overly optimistic. Possibly even impulsive.

"Okay," he said thoughtfully. "Want to try for a week from Saturday? I have detention this Saturday for the cabin war stuff."

"Sure!" Buffy agreed, thereby dooming them both.

Tyler was pleased. This had to go well.
