Fifth floor common room, Wednesday afternoon after classes

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia hadn't worked on her adventure story in a little while. But she was typing away furiously at it now, occasionally reaching up to rub at her eye.

Not because she was crying, of course. She just had something in her eyes.

At present, Sophia was beating the crap out of two mobsters, Blaine and Bill, who'd been spreading rumors about her relationship with Mario that she didn't appreciate.

Blaine and Bill, of course, never stood a chance.

Pippi had finished up working the voting table for Homecoming Court and decided to fix something to much on.

"Hey!"

[nadiathesaint]

"Hi," Nadia said distractedly as she finished describing just what Sophia did to Bill for using that one word she'd had to ask Mario about. That accomplished, she looked up.

"Do you think I dress like a slut?"

Pippi is standing there is her usual fashion that she's been dressing in since she was "nine". A thigh-length dress that doesn't hide the garters which hold up mismatched stockings... Actually, her stockings started matching a while ago, and sometimes she wears jeans now, but since the battle with teh emoo she's been feeling nostalgic.

"What?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Blair said that people probably look at me and think I'm a slut. So I threw him against the wall and almost punched him, but he kept refusing to apologize and just kept saying it over and over again. And Bel's been calling me names and things, I'm just starting to wonder if maybe they're right."

"Blair said... Wait, you threw him against a wall?"

[nadiathesaint]

"He kept saying it! And then he said I was proving it by telling him not to call me that!"

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Did he try to hit you?"

Joxer clanged his way into the common room.

"Hey everyone!"

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia looked up and sighed. "Hi, Joxer,"

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer tipped his helmet at Nadia. "Need a hero today?"

[nadiathesaint]

"No, I'm pretty sure even Blair could take you. Thanks, though."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer's jaw dropped.

"You think what?!"

[nadiathesaint]

"Blair's scrappier than he looks. He might not fight, but apparently he doesn't mind ripping someone apart with words,"

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"So you'd rather have Blair as your hero?" Joxer asked.

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Hi Joxer."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"Heya Pippi," Joxer said. He patted his breastplate. "You need a hero today?"

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"A hero is always a good thing to have around." Pippi mused.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"Good," Joxer said. "Because today, I'm a hero for hire. So, what do I get for bein' your personal hero?"

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"I dunno." Pippi mused. "What's the going rate?"

Pip walked in and started to root around in the cuboards. "Hi kids. How's life?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Hi Pip. Apparently I'm a slut."

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

"Good thing to know. What do you plan to do with this new information?" Pip asked as he pulled out a pan and frowned before contiuing to root through the cuboard.

[nadiathesaint]

"Do something horrible to Blair?"

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

"Why would you want to do that?" Pip asked. "I mean... he's Blair."

[nadiathesaint]

"Because he's the one who called me that."
