Third Floor Common Room - Monday Late Afternoon

[iftheseshadows.livejournal.com]

It had been a busy day of classes and Neil was still a bit unsettled from the subject matter of Ethics. While some of the rumors started and flung around had been funny, it was also a stark reminder of the power of words and perception.

Dropping off his books in his room, Neil sifted out the ones he needed for Traditional Fairy Tales and then he decided to head back to the common room for a bit. He'd seen enough of the inside of his dorm room this past weekend and felt a change of scenary and the chance to observe some of the post AU weekend awkwardness might be a nice change of pace.

The TV didn't really interest him, so he flipped on a radio and made some popcorn. As microwaves were still a bit of an oddity for him, he made the popcorn the old fashion way, on the stove with oil, salt and fresh butter and he probably made way too much. Shrugging, he dumped it all together into a large bowl, which he placed on the table near the couch he flopped upon. Opening his books and perching his reading glasses on his nose, Neil put his feet up on the opposite cushion and set about doing some extra credit.

[Open, as common rooms tend to be.]

"I'm glad to be back," Angela said. "I think I thought you were a servant or something. Whoever Juliet was, she must have had a spoiled little life."

"Yeah, something like that. Maybe a messenger or something, because you kept asking me where Romeo was." Tori smiled. "It seemed like she did, yeah."

"I asked half of town that," Angela replied. "But the hair thing, that was because you were there when I woke up."

She shrugged. "Did you see any other weirdness?"

"It might've been a little strange if you had found him, huh?" Tori chuckled quietly. "I didn't mind the hair thing, really." She smiled.

"Oh, yeah. There was a talking pig who claimed to be a hero, and I met a guy in the park who called himself Robin and said he was a superhero. He asked me if I was in distress." Tori shook her head, both amused and a bit weirded out. "And Bridge was calling himself Street and thought he was a hustler." She shuddered at that memory.

"Bridge as a hustler?" Angela asked. "Oh my god, poor guy. Rory mus be dying."

"Yeah, I can only imagine how that conversation must be going." Tori frowned.

"Yeah. I'm glad that whoever Marty was, he seemed pretty normal," Angela nodded. "And I was too distracted to flirt with anyone, except ..." and there she blushed. Hard. "I think i kind of let Setsuna hit on me."

"That's good to hear." Tori smiled. She was glad Marty had seemed to be normal over the weekend. So much had happened. "Well, at least it was only one person." She smile reassuringly.
