Second Floor Common Room, Thursday Evening

Anders had gone back to his room after Ares's class and taken a long nap. Luckily for him, he didn't have any classes tomorrow -- which was good considering that now his sleep schedule was going to be all wonky.

Anyway, he had finally hauled himself next door to the common room, where he was devouring a chicken Caesar salad about the size of a small jacuzzi while watching cheesy old action flicks.

"Wow, the stunt bottle over the head really is universal, apparently."

"It's a smart move. Even if you actually did it. Whatever it was that you actually did." Because nobody starts a conversation with I didn't do it unless they did something.

Or maybe she's just projecting, lalala.

"I'm Door, by the way."

"Lucas. Good to meet you, Daw." Yeah, he totally mispronounced her name. Dork.

Well, at least it's not a window joke. "It's Door, like..." She points to the doorway of the common room. "That."

Lucas looked where she was pointing. "Oh! Door! Door. Not Daw." He chuckled sheepishly. "Right. Sorry."

Door shrugs. "It's my accent. Apparently I also mispronounce the word nose in Starling. I'm not sure what it actually comes across as, and from the look on Miss Poppins' face I'm not sure I want to."

"I don't think I know that language."

"It's a blackbird of sorts. We had an animal languages course last term," Door explains.

"Really?" Now he was interested. "What kind of animals?"
notajar: (boobies!)

"A couple of different birds, dogs, cats..." Door tries to think of the odder ones. "Dragons, dolphins..."

"Dolphins?" Lucas jumped in. "You can talk to dolphins and understand them without a translator?"
notajar: (grin)

"A bit!" Door nods. "It was only a couple weeks out of one term, so pretty much 'how do you like the weather' and 'do you know where the nearest bathroom is.' "

Lucas eyed Door warily. "This isn't one of those 'let's prank the new kid' things, is it?"
notajar: (grin)

Door squeaks, "No!" In dolphin.

Lucas' jaw went a little slack. "Oh."
notajar: (pensive)

"Miss Poppins left at the end of the term, though," Door adds a little sadly. "There's not another course in it this term."

Lucas looked disappointed. That was because he was disappointed. "You wouldn't happen to have any notes from that class? Or know who would?"
notajar: (3/4)

"Sure. I'd be happy to share them. And Willow was in it." Door snerks. "I think her notes are thicker than the vocabulary packets were."

[identity profile] imissmydolphin.livejournal.com 2007-01-13 08:39 am (UTC)(link)
"Willow," Lucas repeated. "That's great. Maybe I could stop by and pick them up tomorrow?"
notajar: (listening)

"Of course. I'll make you a copy and you can keep them, even." Door nods and smiles. "I'm in 418."

"418," he repeated. "Great. I'll definitely stop by."
