4th Floor Common Room, afternoon into evening

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

The last time Isabel cooked dinner on this scale it was because she didn't want to think about everything that had been going wrong. This time? She's happy. And while it's not goulash, hopefully the gods of good times would appreciate a huge meal of paella and assorted tapas food shared with friends.

The CD was glowing on the counter as she stirred and chopped and Isabel could be found singing quietly and occasionally dancing along with the music.

Ever since this old world began
A woman found out if she shook it she could shake up a man
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy the best that I can today
'Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna but I never ask why
And if you try to hold me down I'm gonna spit in your eye and say
You can stop the beat

[Open to all. Come eat!]

"Workin' in the diner, slumming it in other floors' common rooms."

"That doesn't sound like enjoyment particularly," Peter commented. "Perhaps you need to work harder at having fun?"

"Ah but Artie's workshop is a lot of fun. And whenever River comes into the diner that's fun. Plus I hang out at Caritas everynow and then."

"I've not met River, but I hear interesting things about that workshop," Peter said. "Have you seen Gwynn around recently? I've had my eye out for her and haven't run into her at all."

"Seen no, but we're hopfully going to the beach tomorrow."

Peter nodded. "Let her know I'd love to chat with her sometime, would you?"

"Will do."
