5th Floor Common Room - Thursday Evening

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter tried to make cookies.  Really.  He did.  They just didn't...quite turn out right.  Which was why he'd thrown them all away, opened the windows to let the burning smell out, and turned on the TV.

Spooky Things looked okay.  And that younger brother rather reminded him of Edmund.  Except much, much taller.

"Hey, dude," Bridge says as he flops down on a couch. If he makes a face at the burned-cookie smell, he hides it rather quickly.

"Evening, Bridge," Peter replied. "How goes it?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Okay," Bridge says. "I got a phone call from Callisto last night," he adds with a smile. Even if their conversation hadn't exactly been all fluffy puppies, it had been good to hear from her.

"Really?" Peter asked. "Where is she? How is she doing?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Los Angeles," Bridge rolls his eyes. "Which is... better than Greece, for sure."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"I'm glad she didn't go back to the ancient times," Peter said, catching Bridge's eyeroll. "You disapprove of Los Angeles? Maybe she'll end up in the movies."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"I disapprove of the people she's staying with in Los Angeles." Bridge says with a sigh. "Well, okay, that's not exactly true. They're good people. It's just... her and them is not a very good mix."

Peter nodded slowly. "Maybe it'll work out for the best?"

"I can hope," Bridge says.

"Spooky Things!" Rory said, walking in and trying not to ogle that younger brother as much as she'd like. Because hi, boys in the room who would tease her. "Also, hi!"

"Evening, Rory," Peter said with a grin, standing up as she came in. "I take it the tv choice is a success?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Definitely," Rory said, grinning happily. She paused. "Is something burning?"

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter bit his lip. "No?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory shook her head as to clear it. "Maybe I'm having a stroke or something, then. Anyway, how're you doing?"

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"I tried to make cookies earlier," Peter said, looking embarrassed. "They didn't turn out like cookies. Other than that? Quite well."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory giggled, then sobered. "I'm a terrible cook, so you have my sympathies. Anakin and I burned cookies this summer, but that may have been because we refused to follow directions."

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"How did you do that?" Peter asked, smiling. "I don't know what happened, but they didn't become cookies. They just melting onto the pan. Then burned."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"We were supposed to refrigerate and refused," Rory admitted. "Did you use yeast? Or whatever it is you're supposed to use in cookies."

"Hey, Rory!" Bridge gives her a little wave.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Hi Bridge!" Rory replies, smiling. "How's your Thursday?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Kind of boring," Bridge admits. "No classes today."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"So you spent the day studying, right?" Rory asks seriously.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"I worked on projects for Isabel and Sam?" Bridge offers. "That's sort of like studying, right?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Are you putting candy in them?" Rory asks. "Or different kind of projects?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Uh, maybe in the thing I'm making for Isabel," Bridge admits. "Sam probably wouldn't be too happy if I did that to her bike, though."
