Second Floor Common Room [late afternoon/evening]

Rory sat on the couch, idly tossing Vladdie's ball straight up into the air for him to leap up and retrieve.

She also had an eye on the television screen, which was featuring something new every few minutes as Rory's attention span gave out and she changed it.

[Open, yay! Feel free to mod whatever you'd like on the TV, as she's seriously just channel surfing and it's likely to change from thread to thread.]

Dawn promptly walked over and gave Bridge a hug. "Hiya."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Thanks," Bridge says. "Kinda needed that."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Anytime," Dawn said, then asked quietly, "Has Xander been returning your calls? Because he hasn't called me back, but there may be some interdimensional or monk-y spell-ness that made him forget me, or call the other me back instead of me-me, but you he wouldn't ever forget."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"No," Bridge shakes his head. "There's no way for him to contact Fandom. Not for a long, long time."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Oh, Bridge," Dawn hugged him again. "How do you know?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Dream," Bridge explains shortly.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Dawn wasn't exactly sure how this dream thing worked. "Did you see what's going to happen to him?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Kind of," Bridge says. "A lot of it wasn't, like, clear-cut images? But I know that... stuff's going to happen. And it'll be six years till we see each other again."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Six years?" Dawn stared at Bridge, and did the math. "Then that means...oh, there's so much I should have warned him about. So much he's going to go through."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"I wished I could," Bridge says, "but then things wouldn't have happened the way they were supposed to and there would have been badness and dancing in a crater..."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Dawn nodded, "Not to mention the end of the world. He stopped it himself once."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge nods. "I know," and yeah, he does sound kind of proud about that. "I... kinda got that, from my dream."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"So you really, really know," Dawn said quietly.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge nods.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

And Dawn hugged him again. "If everything goes the way it's s'posed to, he'll be 95% okay."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," Bridge sighs. "It's that other 5% I hate."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Me too, but the patch looks very suave and gives him a lot of new material," Dawn said, trying to be at least a little cheerful.
