Fourth Floor Common Room: Sunday Morning

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer was asleep on a couch in the common room, snoring loudly and drooling onto the upholstery.

He'd definitely get no service, when he woke up. He had no shirt and no shoes on, not to mention no socks or pants.

That is correct. He was in naught but a linen loincloth. If there was even an emergency need for a horde of Madrox's to attack something with Lysol, this situation probably called for it. That couch never knew what was coming.

Mind you, Joxer himself wouldn't know what was coming, either. He'd managed to sleepwalk his way out here during the night.

So here he was, all asleep, drooling, and almost naked. Let's see what happens.

Mac doesn't really function in the mornings without a good dose of caffeine. Which is why when she gets into the common room she makes a beeline for the coffee.

It's early, she's still not really awake. So it's not too surprising it takes her a few seconds to register the drooly, mostly-naked guy on the couch. Ew.

Maybe, if she makes enough noise opening and closing cuboard doors and clattering with mugs she won't have to poke him awake.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer's a pretty sound sleeper. He snort a bit and rolled over on the couch, mumbling something about "I don't want to go to lyre practice, mom".

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Once she'd made her coffee, and banged about as many cuboard doors as she can to absolutely no avail, Mac made her way over.

From there she just kinda stands and looks at him in distaste. Because drool? Doesn't get prettier the nearer you are.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer snored some more, then mumbled a bit more in his sleep.

"Pass the potatoes, please, Willow..."

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

It's not something she particularly wants to do, but Mac is beginning to realise she really has to wake him. She's not quite mean enough to just leave the guy there for ultimate humilation when more people come in.

As she's holding onto her coffee with both hands, Mac balances on one foot and pokes Joxer hesitantly with the other. It's not the most stable position, so she's just hoping he doesn't hit her or anything.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer tries to brush whatever is nudging him away, not totally waking.

"Five more minutes," he mumbled.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Unstableness, hot coffee, and half-asleep people not a good combo. It tends to leave you with said coffee all over your hands.

"Okay, ow." Mac put the mug down and tried again with the poking, a little less subtly now. This time with, "Hey, naked dude," for added wake-up effect, or so she hoped.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer's eyes snapped open and he looked up at Mac. "Wha... who are you and why are you in my room?"

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac snorted in amusement, "The better question? Who are you, and why are you naked in the common room?"

"Trust me, if this actually was your room I wouldn't be here," she added turning back to the table to pick up her mug. "I don't make a habit of hanging out in strangers rooms and watching them sleep."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer glanced around, realized he was actually in the common room, and instantly sat up.

"Eep," he said. Then he realized he was horrible underdressed and grapped for a couch cushion to cover himself.

"Hi."

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"Hi." Mac smirked, totally starting to enjoy this. Making naked dude squirm, so amusing. "I'm Mac."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"I, I, I, I'm Joxer," he said. He gulped. "I don't normally do this."

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"So glad to hear that," Mac said, and so much feeling went into that single sentence. "No worries, it happens to the best of us."

She paused taking a sip of her coffee, "Why exactly are you... like that, here."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer gulped again. "I don't know?" he said.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"Okay," Mac said slowly. After a couple of seconds she added, "cause you know, that's usally the kinda thing you know."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"I went to bed in my own room last night," Joxer said. "I know, because I freaked out about staying careful of Agnes' weird illness."

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac took a step backwards, away from Joxer. Weird illnesses are something she'd really like to avoid. "Generally when I go to bed, I wake up where I was when I went to sleep."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer flailed a little. "Me too!"

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"Apparently, not today," Mac commented.

She thought for a moment, "If it makes you feel better, I've ended up half-naked in common rooms before too. It's something about this school, I think."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"This school gets weird some times," Joxer said. "I didn't... I mean, you didn't... I didn't do anything while I was asleep, did I?"

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"What exactly are you expecting to have done?" Mac asked, taking another sip of her coffee.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer flailed. "I don't know!"

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"That is so not comforting," Mac said. "Oh, you drool in your sleep, by the way."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"I do?" Joxer looked at the end of the couch. "Oh, I guess I do."

"Ew."

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, ew." Mac wrinkled her nose and added, "You might want to work on that little issue before you share a bed with someone."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer gulped. "How would I do that?"

Because that whole sharing a bed thing had been kinda on his mind.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac's never really had a problem with drool, but she can try and help out anyway. "Uh, learn to breathe through your nose? Sleep on your back?"

"You know excessive production of saliva can be a sign of some diseases," she added. "You might have an abcess, or strep throat or something."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer's eyes started watering a little.

"I'm not going to have to go to the clinic, am I?"

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac shrugged, "Depends. If you have mononucleosis you could end up with a ruptured spleen, or hepatitis."

"Have you eaten any particularly hot chillies lately?"

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer shook his head.

"I don't wanna go to the clinic," he said. "You can't make me go! Nothing can!"

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"Not making you do anything," Mac said raising the hand that wasn't holding her mug in submission. "Just sayin', the drool is gross, and can kill you, or something."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"But the clinic can..."

Joxer whimpered.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"The clinic is unlikely to kill you," Mac said fiddling with the handle of her mug. "Doctors take a vow against doing that on purpose. It'd be breaking the hippocratic."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, but they put things in places where things shouldn't be put," Joxer whimpered.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac raised an eyebrow at that. "Like what?"

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer gulped again.

"Some place that's normally only a place where things go out, not in."

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Okay, picture her officially grossed out. She'd really rather not think about that. "Uh, first off, ew. Second? That's never been my experience. At all."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"It happened to me, last time," Joxer said. "Honest to Zeus."

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

More ew, overshare.

"Uh, in the town clinic?"

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer nodded. "It was horrible."

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"I'm trying not to imagine." And she really, really means that.

"It might be better this time?" Mac said hopefully.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"I really don't think I'm sick," Joxer said. "Even if my roommate is."

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"If you say so," Mac said shrugging briefly. It seemed to be what he wanted to hear. How sincere she sounded about it, is up for debate.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

There was a pause.

"I should probably go put some clothes on," Joxer said.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

"That would probably be a really good idea," Mac agreed. She'd seen enough naked-Joxer to last her for a very long time.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer set the couch cushion aside and make a break for it.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac waved at him as he left, and found herself a couch to lounge on. Definitely not the one that Joxer had drooled on.

After making a nest in the over hang in the big cave, and breakfasting on a cricket or two, Dragon!Billy emerged from the cave to investigate his surroundings.

A small, lizardy head poked it's way cautiously around the door frame to peer into the new chamber.
