3rd Floor Common Room [Friday Night]

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Still leery of the energy emanating from the 2nd Floor Common Room, Bridge decides to move up a floor. He's sprawled on a couch, reading a book he'd bought from the Book Fair, with several other books spread out on the couch around him.

"Hey, at least I found out that my fire extinguisher was good for something." Anders grins. Then, completely out of nowhere, he raises an eyebrow and asks, "So what's this you wrote in my yearbook about a grand slam, now?"

Xander blinks, tries to remember, and when he does, coughs. *Hard.*

"Er. Joke! Of the very very jokey variety!"

"Right," Anders says, nodding very slowly. In a totally and completely innocent manner. "And for a second there I kinda felt left out."

What? Sometimes it's fun not being the one on the spot.

He's 99 and 44/100's percent sure his chain is being yanked, but some part of Xander still flails. "Not that I think you're serious, but I don't, um. Actually do that. The kissing other people thing."

"Yeah, neither do I," Anders says quickly. "Um. Except that once, and that was a total fluke, and so never happening again. And that other time, but that so wasn't my idea. And that other other time, and that wasn't my idea either."

[soldtoarmenians]

At a certain word, Xander winces. "Yeah, flukes bad. Trust me, I now have a definite no-fluking policy."

Anders winces too, and nods a bit too emphatically. "Yeah, me too. No fluking. People get hurt and blow out a knee that way."

[soldtoarmenians]

"Or a piece of rebar through the ribs." He glances down, because no, he did actually learn more from that experience than 'don't get caught.' "Plus even without the emergency-room visit, people still get hurt."
