Second Floor Common Room, Sunday Morning

Conner bolted back upstairs after basketball practice and got ready for the World Cup final. As a result of his conversation with Nadia from Friday, he was dressed -- if one could call it that -- for the occasion in what was essentially an Italian-flag loincloth, and red, green, and white body paint.

Nobody was in the second floor common room, so he hijacked it for the cool TV and got comfortable (standing, because body paint) before the game started.

France vs. Italy. Plus, Julie Foudy at halftime. Last night might have been a fiasco, but today life was good.

"Hey, somebody needs to represent the hooligan faction, right?"
nadiathesaint: (argentine)

"That's right. I guess I could have made my flags a bit bigger, but after everything that's happened. . . . I decided fully dressed might be a better way to go."

Conner raised an eyebrow but didn't ask. "Might be safer that way, yeah."
nadiathesaint: (relaxed)

"Is Anders coming, too?"

"He was going to, but he ran off and ditched me to go into Baltimore for a baseball game." Conner rolled his eyes a little bit. "You should've seen him getting ready. He's got scorecards and a whole color-coded pen system worked out."
nadiathesaint: (cheerful)

"For baseball? Fool. This is a much better sport."

"That's what I said, but I can't get him to believe it." Conner shrugged. "Anyway, he was so excited about it, it was kind of cute."
nadiathesaint: (split smile)

"Well, he is a little bit doofy about some things. But I can see how that might be cute."

"Something wrong with being doofy?" Conner asked, in no way curious because he could be described that way himself.
nadiathesaint: (cheerful)

Nadia leaned closer. "Don't tell anyone? But I like doofy."

Conner laughed. "Your secret is safe with me." He could keep secrets, honest. As long as they weren't his own.
nadiathesaint: (grin)

"Excellent. If that got out, my reputation would be ruined, I'm sure."

Conner mimed zipping his lips and nodded, grinning.
