5th floor common room - Wednesday afternoon

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

River was restless, without knowing why. Berthold had annoyed her by making squealing noises, so she had retreated into the common room.

She had tried drawing, but everything she tried had looked strange. That was the reason for the torn up papers around her.

She had considered making popcorn, but there was no corn around.

As a last desperate measure, she had decided to glue all the forks in the kitchen together to a large spikey structure. Yay superglue!

Nadia was on her way to the weapons cabinet to get her gun and anything else she thought might be useful for hunting down her father. She paused as she passed the common room.

"River. Did you see an older man, about this tall--" Nadia held up her hand at Sloane height. "--with short white hair go by?"

River frowned, then shook her head. "No, who is he?"

One of the forks fell down. She sighed.

"Someone dangerous. If you see him, let me or the mountie know and stay out of his way, okay?"

"Okay," River said. "Dangerous in what way? What do you want to do with him?" Perhaps Nadia could use some help. On the other hand, helping might be a sensitive issue.

"I'm going to kill him," Nadia said flatly. "Just let me know if you see him."

River nodded, then hesitated for a moment. "Need help with that?"

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia stopped to consider this. "No, but thank you. If Walter or Pip find out I let someone else help kill him and didn't tell them about it, they'll be angry."

River just nodded again, and returned to her fork structure.
