Fourth floor common room, Monday evening

Marco had claimed the remote as his own and was now channel surfing from about a foot away from the television. There was a big, forgotten bowl of popcorn behind him.

Anders shuffled, stiff and sore, up to the fourth floor, drawn by the smell of popcorn. "Anything good on?" he asked with a friendly grin. "And I am so still cuter than you."

Jim strolled up to the fourth floor in need of something to do. Watching a bunch of television shows for seconds at a time was something, so he took a seat on a couch. "Hi," he said.

Naomi hadn't really been in the common rooms much over the past week so she decided to hang out for a while, "hi," she said as she entered.

Jim blinked. Apparently Dick hadn't been lying about alien chicks. "Um, hey. I'm Jim and I am new here."

"New guy," Anders said with a brief wave.

"I assume you're an old guy, then?" Jim asked. "I'm Jim."

Naomi smiled, "I'm Naomi, I've been here since August last year, it's nice to meet you Jim,"

"My fourth semester here, yep. Hey, Jim. Name's Anders." He offered a hand -- for a handshake, or maybe one of those knuckle-punch things guys did. He was totally adaptable that way. "Haven't run home screaming yet, huh? That's usually a good sign."

"August? Wow, you're practically a geezer compared to me," Jim said. "So, how do you like it here?" Jim was curious what aliens thought of Virginia. He wasn't exactly sure why.

Jim reached out to shake and smiled. "I've only been here a few days. There's still plenty of time to scare me off. I haven't even had my first class yet."

"I like Fandom," Naomi replied, "it took a while to get used to because I'd never been to a school but I've settled down,"

"I've never been to boarding school before, but I'm already getting the impression that this isn't really like most schools at all," Jim said.

"Yeah? What're you taking?" Anders asked, interested. "Some classes around here are more . . . intense than others."

[identity profile] ktarian-wildman.livejournal.com 2007-01-09 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
"Fandom definitely isn't a normal school, then again I can't really compare it to anything because I've only been home schooled prior to coming here" Naomi replied.

"Nothing intense, hopefully," Jim said. "I've got US History, Government, and tomorrow I start off with Home Ec."

"Oh, that's not too bad," Anders assured him -- oh, so naively. "Long as you don't accidentally set fire to the kitchen like me and Sam Carter did over the summer, you should be fine . . . speaking of Carter, has anyone warned you about her cooking yet?"

"For the record, I haven't even had a class yet and this place already seems insane," Jim said. "But in a fun way."

"Hey," Naomi waved to the person that she didn't know, "I'm Naomi Wildman,"

[identity profile] fat-halpert.livejournal.com 2007-01-09 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
"Nope," Jim said. "I imagine it's bad?"

[identity profile] cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com 2007-01-09 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, well, I'm not from this universe either," Anders countered. "Isn't that the show with the six insanely pretty people who all live together, or something?"

"It's one of the first things you to tend to figure out," Naomi said, "for me it was probably when I was realized that it was the year 2006 and not the year 2380,"
