Third Floor Common Room, Tuesday morning

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

Walter was cooking breakfast and making a list. So far he had a remarkable array of eggs cooked in different styles, a loaf's worth of toast, far too many sausages, and a few boxes of cereal sitting out next to a gallon of milk.

You'd think he was cooking for more than himself. While he worked, a small black puppy scampered at his feet apparently trying to stab a paper ball with a pencil held in his teeth.

The list was for Mary Poppins, who had somehow thought that he'd volunteered as her Teacher's Assistant.

Walter Dornez - Hellpuppy
Rory Gilmore - Vampire puppy
Nadia Santos - Blue cat that disobeys the laws of physics
Alphonse Elric - Kitten (just a plain, normal, cute kitten... who knew?)
Veruca Cally - Lemming
Pip Bernadette - Psychotic cat
Ranma - Puppy
Alanna - Talking, intelligent, snarky cat
Pippi Longstocking - Spider Squirrel monkey
Pippi Longstocking - Horse
Blair Sandburg - Two goldfish
Angela Chase - Cat
River Tam - Berthold??
Belthazor and Phoebe Halliwell - Two cats
Samuel Anders - Goldfish
Bridge Carson - Robot dog

He knew there had to be more than that. He'd keep working on it.

[ooc: Help Walter with his list? Help me with the list. The food's for anyone.]

It was entirely possible that a fair bit of Walter's higher brain function decided it was a lovely time to go on holiday.

"Kicking Jamie out tonight?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Jamie's still staying in town. He promised to warn us before he comes back to stay."

"What time shall I meet you there?" Eager? What gives you that idea?

"Do you think anyone would cat-sit?"

[nadiathesaint]

Furrball mewed indignantly. //I can otherwise occupy myself. Do you think Merdebaise likes flowers?//

Nadia shrugged. "I'm open."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

//Your person worries when you go for walks and she doesn't know where you are. // He thought Merdebaise was more the small butchered animal sort, actually.

"Furrball says he can keep himself busy."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia gave her cat a Look. "By busy, does that mean out of trouble?"

Furrball looked indignant as only a cat can.

Walter looked at Furrball and grinned. "If I were to say 'I'll stay out of trouble,' how much would you believe me?"

He leaned closer and to murmur in her ear, "He was asking about Merdebaise. I think he likes her."

[nadiathesaint]

"Well, I suppose I'm glad someone does." Nadia looked over at her cat. "And he is rather hard to injure."

"I'm sure he'll be back in time for breakfast?"

//And there's fish in it for you, too.// He'd pick something up at the restaurant.

[nadiathesaint]

//I'm sure I can arrange it.//

"Well, he does know where he can get his food."

"Add in one bribe of fish from Cafe Fina and I think we have an arrangement. I'll see you in your room later."
