2nd Floor Common Room [Wednesday Evening]

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Okay, so hot weather + cold beverages = OTP.

Which is why Bridge had spent the morning before his workshop working on a slushy machine. Which he'd now dragged out to the common room in order to find people who would be willing to test it out.

He's also got his laptop perched on a table, for... no reason at all. Really. It's not like he's expecting to hear from someone about something.

[ooc: mod any slushy flavour you'd like! unless it's gross, like spinach or something.]

"Thanks, I appreciate it." Z picked at her jacket and said, "I guess I could have left the jacket in my room..."

"Well, what's stopping you from taking it off right now?" Anders wondered.

[multiplez]

"Low budget leading to lack of iconage Hey, you're right," Z realized. She set down her slushy and stripped out of her jacket, tossing it on a vacant chair and leaving her in a white t-shirt and her uniform pants. "Ahh, much better."

Dear God! An icon! "Just remind 'em you'd be no use to SPD with heat stroke," Anders pointed out.

[multiplez]

Sometimes I get lucky like that "Well, see, my boss is a reptile, so I don't think he really grasps the concept of 'heat stroke' so well."

"Damn. It sounded like a good strategy for a while there."

[multiplez]

"Maybe I can get Medical to, like, give him a pamphlet on it or something."

"Maybe if you ask the right people at the clinic in town, you can come up with something," Anders added. "Just don't ask the guy who works on Saturday nights."

[multiplez]

"I've never been to the clinic. What's wrong with the guy who works Saturday nights?"

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Well, he's kind of a jerk. I brought Seras into the clinic one night when she was unconscious and also a boy, and he was all asking me questions about my boyfriend and telling me I must be afraid of commitment and stuff like that." Anders's expression clearly indicated that he was still kind of traumatized by the whole thing.

[multiplez]

"That's terrible. What a jerk. I'm also guessing Seras's being unconscious had to do with her being a boy?"

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Well, no, the unconsciousness had to do with the tentacles. I have no idea what gave her the plumbing swap."

[multiplez]

"See, I'm thinking suddenly being a boy for some reason would be enough to make me unconscious.

...tentacles?"

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Demon," Anders said offhandedly. He couldn't figure out why being a boy would be enough to render someone unconscious, personally.

[multiplez]

"Not aliens?"

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Nope, demon. Maybe an alien demon, possibly, but the demon part is all I know."

[multiplez]

"See, where I come from, it's usually aliens. But I think there have been demons a time or two. Or, y'know, evil space ninjas."

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Anders had been in Fandom long enough, and heard enough from Conner (wherever the frak he was tonight), to not be surprised about the aliens or demons. But that last bit?

"Evil space ninjas are real?"

[multiplez]

"I thought everyone knew about the space ninjas," Z said innocently.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Dude," Anders said, half-complaining, "I never know what's real or made up around here. I should just assume all of it's real."

[multiplez]

"That might be for the best, yeah. I mean, I totally thought mummy curses at least were fake, and turns out I was wrong, wrong, wrong!"

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Yep, that's Fandom High for you. Reading, writing, and by the way, when we said the Cylon under your bed would get you if you didn't behave, we really weren't kidding."

[multiplez]

"Cylons, those are the evil robots, right?"

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"The toasters, yeah." Anders nodded. "Not that any of them have been seen in the Colonies for oh, almost thirty years now? For me, anyway. It's almost forty years for Cally."
