Fifth Floor Common Room: Evening

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

Jamie sits on the couch flippiing between the ball game with Cleveland and Kansas City and Sports Night.

Somehow the game is a lot better when you have Dan and Casey snarking about it on the other channel.

Jamie looked at the other Jamie and then back at Molly.

Then back at Jamie and then back at Molly.

"Okay... let me explain..."

Molly looked between the two Jamies before addressing the one standing next to her. "That had better be a duplicate sitting over there."

The Jamie standing next to Molly looked over at the Jamie at the TV with a deer caught in the headlights expression on his face.

Jamie at the TV facepalmed. "Okay... Really it's not that big of a deal. See... there's this game on TV I wanted to see and so I thought the best thing to do was to make sure all parties were happy involved. Because really a duplicate? It's just me. Just another me. We're all me in my meeness with me. So that's all it is. Multiple me's."

Just then another Jamie walked into the CR, covered in dust and sweat and carrying a utility belt and a grappling hook.

"Whew! Man! Jumping over rooftops all evening was exhausting! Hey man! How was pizza planet? Did they have whack-a-mole?"

The original Jamie facepalmed. "And I also sent a dupe out to get some excercise. But still it's just me!"

Molly stomped over and stood, hand on hips, in front of the Jamie on the couch. "If you're all just one Jamie, why are you sitting here on the couch? The explanation had better be good or I will fill this room with Jamies," she warned.

"I.. um... That's a very good question. See everyone I produce is a version of me... so therefore when I absorb all the other me's I remember and experience everything that happened. So really you were just dating me," Jamie tried to explain, "By proxy. Still me just-"

Then he saw the look on Molly's face.

"I'm going to get hit, aren't I?"

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly crossed her arms over her chest. "Look, Jamie, I know you probably wanted to be on a date with someone else, but that is no reason to send a duplicate in your place."

Jamie's eyes widened at the comment. "What? No! Tha- Tha- That's not true at all! That's why this happened? I just wanted to watch a game, get some excercise and go out with you. I just did it all at the same time. This has nothing to do with why I went out with you and who I might or might not have feelings for."

At which point a bleary eye Jamie walked into the CR carrying an encyclopedia. "Hey guys, how was Pizza planet. Was there a whack-a-mole?"

Jamie facepalmed again.

Molly leaned forward so that Jamie would be sure to see her eyes. They were very glowy and pink right now. "The next time you speak to me," she said in a firm but quiet voice, "you had better have a proper apology prepared or I will never speak to you again."

And then she stood up straight and walked out of the common room toward her dorm room.

Jamie's shoulders sag as he watched Molly go out of the room.

The duplicates all look sheepish and mutter something about having to be someplace else and head off toward their room.
