Second Floor Common Room, Sunday Afternoon [starting at 12:30PM FHT]

Conner had missed the US women's national soccer team's game against Ireland last Sunday on account of being in the hospital at the time, but there was no way he was missing today's match against Canada.

Ergo, he was usurping the cool TV to do so.

He'd left his laptop behind in Anders's room, because soccer is a game that should not be sullied by such distractions, but he had stolen the orange juice and half the tray of muffins.

Camped out cross-legged on the floor just feet from the TV screen, Conner munched on a muffin and waited impatiently for the game to start. There was just half an hour of this pesky car show to go.

Escaping from the fourth floor, Bel headed downstairs rather than up and found Conner in the common room. "Hey," he said, glancing at the TV. "Oh, chick sports, cool."

Nadia was slowly wandering around the dorms looking for people she'd bitten yesterday so she could apologize.

Oh, look, Bel. Greeeeeeeeeat.

"Hey, um, about yesterday,"
demonbelthazor: (Huh?)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"So that really was you?" he asked, his ankle aching in memory.
nadiathesaint: (aw crap)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-30 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"Um. Yes. I'm really really really really sorry about that!"
demonbelthazor: (Hand on knee)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"How the hell did you turn in to a gremlin, and why did you bite me?" Bel said.
nadiathesaint: (drama queen)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-30 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
"I think it had something to do with dropping the spirit stick. And I didn't just bite you. I bit a lot of people, and see, gremlins just kind of do that and I don't know why."
demonbelthazor: (Default)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"So you really were a gremlin, and not just Nadia looking like a gremlin?" Bel clarified. "Because if you bit me on purpose...."
nadiathesaint: (doom)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-30 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
"Um. I really was a gremlin. I think. Please don't kill me."
demonbelthazor: (Crossed arms)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Don't worry, I don't fireball Nadia-shaped things," Bel said grumpily.
nadiathesaint: (Default)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-30 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"And as a Nadia-shaped thing, I appreciate that. A lot. Really."
demonbelthazor: (Headtilt)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"You okay now?" Bel said. "This isn't gonna happen to you again, the changing thing?"
nadiathesaint: (Default)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-30 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh god but I hope not. I'm never putting that costume on again, that's for damn sure."
demonbelthazor: (Crossed arms)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
"Probably a good idea," Bel said, nodding in agreement. "Wanna join in on some gremlin extermination?"

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hey, Nadia," Conner said, cheerfully oblivious to any gremliny goings-on during the game.
nadiathesaint: (Default)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-30 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hi, Conner," I took pictures of you and Anders yesterday while I was a gremlin. "How are you?"

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
He gestured at the TV. "Just great. How 'bout you? Muffin?" he asked, indicating the plateful on the table.
nadiathesaint: (Default)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-30 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Nadia shook her head, still feeling a touch nauseus after all the biting and the head hitting and the arguing and things. "I'm okay."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, that's good to hear."
nadiathesaint: (Default)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-30 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
"Who's playing?" Nadia asked, to deftly direct attention away from herself.

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
And deft it was, since Conner could probably talk for hours on the subject without really needing to breathe, much less eat or sleep. "US and Canada. Just a friendly, really. But. Hot players." He grimaced at a graphic on the screen. "Also, hot field. 113 degrees? Ow."
nadiathesaint: (Default)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-30 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Nadia nodded. "That just means they'll sweat a lot more."
nadiathesaint: (Default)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-31 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
Nadia smiled slightly. "If you say so."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-31 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Conner grinned crookedly. "I've been told that makes me weird."
nadiathesaint: (Default)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-31 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
"Liking people in sweaty clothes makes you weird?"

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-31 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, yeah, according to people who'd rather spend all their time playing computer games, I guess." Conner shrugged. "But then, I think that's weird, so."

"I don't really understand video games. Especially video games where you're supposed to be playing a sport."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-31 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh my god, I know! What is that all about?"
nadiathesaint: (Default)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2006-07-31 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
"They might as well just go play the sport. It's not like you get the real experience when you're just pushing buttons."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-31 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
Conner had heard Ethan rhapsodizing often enough on the subject and rolled his eyes. "Eh, if you ask some gamers I know, having really fast thumbs is a sport. I still think they're crazy."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
"It's soccer," Conner said, as if that should explain everything, because really, shouldn't it? "Besides, Hope Solo's kinda hot."
demonbelthazor: (Belthazor)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"I thought it was football," Bel said, confused. "And, yeah, she's cute. Nice, um, form."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"It's football, too," Conner replied. "As opposed to that thing with the helmets and the goofy padding. What's up?"
demonbelthazor: (Default)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
"Not much," Bel said. "Just watching dark corners for gremlins chilling out."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"Sundays are good for that sort of thing." Conner glanced up at him. "You at the game yesterday by any chance?"
demonbelthazor: (Uh huh....)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"...yes?" Bel said.

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hey, I know it's basketball, but you don't have to sound so ashamed of it."
demonbelthazor: (Gold shirt)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm not," Bel said. "I was just wondering why you asked."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
"Just curious. I have no idea who was there or not, that's all," Conner answered. "Besides, it's not like you guys could've embarrassed yourselves any more than we did on the court."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
"You sure you're okay, dude?" asked Conner dubiously.
demonbelthazor: (Looking down)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm fine," Bel said. "Just...I got bit by a gremlin yesterday during the game."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Okaaaaaaay," said Conner, who hadn't heard too many humiliating stories of gremlin bites yet. "You're okay now, though, right?"
demonbelthazor: (Belthazor)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, I guess so," Bel said. "And it wasn't too bad I guess. Could've been worse. I could've been wearing a dress and trying to slay vampires."

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"I don't know." Conner smirked a little bit. "You might look good in an evening gown."

[OOC: Must run AFK for a couple of hours now. :(]
demonbelthazor: (Crossed arms)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-30 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
"Don't make me kill you," Bel said, glaring.

[no problem!]

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2006-07-30 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
". . . or possibly it might be the worst fashion idea ever for you and we should never consider it again."
demonbelthazor: (Smirk)

[personal profile] demonbelthazor 2006-07-31 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
"Let's go with Plan B, then," Bel said, smirking.
