Saturday - 5th Floor Common Room - 10:30am FHT- end of the game

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter hadn't been able to sleep before the game though World Cup nerves weren't what were keeping him awake.  In any case, he'd put the time to good use by getting doughnuts, pasties, and orange juice and putting them out on the Common Room table.

England vs. Portugal.  And it was even more important that England win since Germany had beaten Argentina the day before.  Peter waited for the game to begin impatiently.  Sans bodypaint though he'd tacked his English flag to the wall.


[OOC:  Come cheer for England!  Or just eat the pastries and mock the soccer hooligans.  I'll throw up game OCD for reactions and stuff as it goes on.  And now in the right place.  Yay!]

Eat doughnuts, talk smack about the other team, complain about Germany's win....

Molly went into the common room looking for breakfast.

"Hey, Peter. What's all this for?"

Re: Pre-game

"Morning Molly!" Peter replied with a grin. "It's the World Cup. England's playing Portugal this morning." He grinned. "Hopefully beating them."

You'd have to have been crazy to think that Conner wouldn't be here early for this. There was no bodypaint for him today either (because that hadn't worked so well yesterday), but he did have on the same shirt he'd worn to the match with Ecuador.

"Morning, everybody," he said a little sleepily.

"Morning, Conner," Peter said with a grin. "Good choice of shirt!"

"Up England!"

"Up England indeed!" Peter replied with a wave to Pippi.

1st Half

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Whistle's blown! 90 Minutes to determine who's the best!

Molly watched a Portuguese player take a dive. "Socc- er, football players are such good fakers."

Buffy, who'd been searching for breakfast and found donuts, blinked at the tv. The Portuguese player looked very pained. "That's fake?"

Half-time!

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

And it's 0-0. Portugal has a slightly higher possession percentage, but it's been an even game thus far.

Molly frowned. "Now I have to go to cheerleader practice. I wish they would have scored in the first half." She stood up with a sigh. "Bye, Peter. Thank you for breakfast. Go, England!"

Re: Half-time!

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Bye Molly," Peter replied. "Cheer well! And if you hear cheering from here? England scored."

Re: Half-time!

Conner leaned forward to watch the halftime show. "Oooh. Julie Foudy."

Re: Half-time!

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Who's that?" Peter asked.

Second Half

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

GO ENGLAND!

"Red card?! On Roooney! What the heck?" Peter said as he'd glanced away from the television for a split second. "This is NOT good."

Re: Second Half

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

Conner winced as Beckham went off the field. "Neither is that."

Re: Second Half

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Well, at least he can rest his foot..."

And...it's all over but the crying

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Portugal wins on the penalties....

Re: And...it's all over but the crying

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

Two days in a row of this? Why, no, Conner's not crying.

Except he kind of is.

Re: And...it's all over but the crying

[nadiathesaint]

"Of for--" And there goes that Spanish cursing again. "Up Brazil, then."

Re: And...it's all over but the crying

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Oh..." Pippi said as the last goal was made.

"Ouch."

Re: And...it's all over but the crying

Walter caught the penalty win.

Dammit.
