Third Floor Common Room, Sunday Morning

Dawn was wearing the same jeans and sweater she'd been wearing yesterday, not wanting to head back to her room and too tall to borrow Molly's. She was also freezing, which had led to her mixing up a very large pot of oatmeal. The fixings were in the cupboard if anyone wanted them, but she wasn't setting them out.

Instead, she was sitting with her bowl of healthy goodness (once you ignored the raisins and brown sugar she'd added to her own) and a very, very large mug of hot cocoa with mini marshmallows. She read through a large pile of books and scrolls she'd brought with her and that Giles had sent since May (not all of which were in English), trying to find anything that explained what was going on.

She made occasional notes on a pad as she worked.

Cally smiled. "It'll be fun."

Bolstered slightly by Cally's enthusiasm, Mac nodded and smiled back. "Uh-huh."

"Wanna try some?" Cally held out her bowl of oat-mush.

Mac nodded. "Sure," she replied. She might as well be supportive with the mush eating.

Cally turned the straw to face Mac. "'nless you want your own."

"So long as you don't mind, I don't," Mac replied, sipping a little of the blenderised oatmeal.

"'ike this is supposed to be icky?" Cally asked.

"... the oatmeal should be icky?" Mac said, a little puzzled.

"Sharing a straw," Cally said. "S'not like we've shared... err, yeah."

[identity profile] imac-kenzie.livejournal.com 2007-01-21 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Mac smirked at that. "Yeah, not icky," she agreed.

Cally took back the straw and had another sip. "Not icky at all."

"So... when exactly are we doing this pretending thing?" Mac asked curiously.

"Tonight," Cally said. "That gives us the afternoon to prepare."

"Mm, yeah." Mac nodded. "I have to figure out what my alterna-personality is gonna be."

"Me too," Cally said. "This is gonna be awesome."
