3rd Floor Common Room, Friday Evening

[chasingangela]

Having rummaged through every drawer in Angela's room to no avail, the gremlin-bitten girl went to what looked like some kind of living room. She climbed up on the counter and started poking through the cabinets; there had to be alcohol somewhere.

After all, this was, like, some fancy boarding school, right?

"We'll have to see," Rayanne said, setting it on her head where, indeed, it set very awkwardly.

She turned to him with a smile like a supermodel. "How do I look?"

"You look good," Joxer said, smiling. "Though maybe the brim could be hammered out to fit a bit better."

[chasingangela]

"Maybe you could do that sometime," Rayanne said, plopping it back on Joxer's head. "So how have you been?"

"A little restless," he admitted. "I, uhh, accidently insulted my roommate on the radio last night."

[chasingangela]

"Your roommate being the person you live with?," Rayanne asked. "What did you do?"

"I may have said something about her, uhhh, weight," Joxer said. "It was an accident."

[chasingangela]

"You called a girl fat by accident?," Rayanne asked, crossing her legs. "Well, is she?"

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer nodded. "But I didn't call her fat. Just... round. Because I misread the notes."

[chasingangela]

"Still bad," Rayanne said. "This chick knows where you sleep -- in fact, sleeps mere inches away -- and you called her round?"

Joxer nodded. "I didn't come home to my room last night."

[chasingangela]

"Smart boy," Rayanne said. "Though it looks like you'd be protected whatever she threw at you."

"It's not hurting me I'm worried about," Joxer said. "She, uhhh, might turn me into a frog."

[chasingangela]

"This is the ffreakiest school," Rayanne said pragmatically. "Look -- if she's nmad at you, make it up to her. Give her flowers. Chocolate. Tell ehr she's gorgeous. All of that."

Joxer rubbed the back of his neck. "Won't that give her the wrong idea? Won't that give my girlfriend the wrong idea?"

[chasingangela]

"You have a girlfriend and you live with another girl?," Angela asked,. "This school is so, so progressive."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"You're telling me," Joxer said. "It's way more advanced than anything from where I'm from."

[chasingangela]

Which is where?" Rayanne asked. She had found a piece of hard candy somewhere, and was now loudly chomping on it.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"Greece," Joxer said. "A few thousand years ago."

[chasingangela]

"That's a ways," Rayanne agreed. "Hope you work things out with your roomie and your girlfriend."

Joxer nodded. "Thanks. I'll see about maybe getting you a custom fit helmet, too."
