2nd Floor Common Room - Thursday Afternoon/Evening

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Dick didn't want to be in his room. There was some weird freaky-ness going on and he wanted to be as far away from it as possible. But Dick did want to sleep. Sleep for a long, long time. So he managed to get out of his room (forgetting about closing out the porn on his computer; poor Jim.) and make his way to the common room to sleep. He flopped himself down on the couch...only to fall through it.

He stayed on the floor, too tired to move. You might see a faded arm sticking out from under the couch. Or you might just step on it.

((Open, duh))

Annette? Moved to curl up on the couch and fell through it, landing on Dick who she totally didn't know was there. But she was totally too tired to care. She only opened one eye and tried to get comfortable. On Dick. sonotdirty

He didn't bother to open his eyes to see what was on top of him or to wonder why this couch felt a lot like a floor. Dick just threw an arm over Annette to cuddle, that being what he usually did when Madison was trying to sleep with him.

"Cuddly." he mumbled.

"...and warm." Annette mumbled back, burrowing against the welcoming heat. She was still totally freezing and a nice warm body? Yummy.

Of course, that thought would have really bothered her were she totally awake.

"Mmmm...yep." mumbled Dick again, giving Annette a squeeze. It's lucky he's so tired otherwise he'd totally be hitting on her. He moved slightly, his back starting to hurt from the floor.

"This couch sucks." he grumbled. "Feels like a floor."

She so did not want to move. Sleep was what she needed, and the heat. Annette moved closer to the source and knitted her brows, murmuring, "It was always soft before. And comfy. What's wrong with this couch? And why does it smell like old popcorn?"

Still stricken by Jack's snubbing (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/980855.html?thread=80260215#t80260215) Irulan went to the common room on automatic.

Cameron entered the common room, he was carrying some extra lamps and a piece of paper and it was taking a whole lot of concentration to not let the things fall. As it seemed that the other peopel were sleeping, he let them be as he quietly set up the extra lamps around the room and then sat down on the floor to start working on a sign. As it was pretty late, it was getting really hard to concentrate on holding his pen.

Irulan noticed Cameron enter, he seemed troubled. She finally shook off her stupor and approached him. "Are you alright?"

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

Cameron grimaced and held up his hand, showing Irulan that she could pretty much see right through him. "I've had better," he said honestly.

[irulan-atreides.livejournal.com]

Irulan stared at him, at his hand which she could see through. "I can see through you."

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I noticed. A word of advice? Keep your lights on and stay away from anything shadowy," he warned. He sighed as he realised his tone was probably to harsh. "Sorry, I'm having a really bad day."

Dick perked his head up from underneath the couch when he heard others come in. When he spoke his voice sounded low and tired. "I can't sit on the couch."

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

Cameron winced as he realised that Dick wasn't all too substantial anymore either. "You too?"

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"It's happening to other people?" asked Dick. He then noticed that Cam was pretty much see-through. "I thought it was a voodoo thing your girlfriend sent after me."

He chuckled at his joke half-heartedly. He was too tired to giggle.

Annette peeked out from under the couch and from under her blanket cause it was totally over her head.

"Turn the heat up? I would but uh, my hand seems to be disappearing on me."

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"I don't think it will do much good," he sighed and got up to try it anyway.

[irulan-atreides.livejournal.com]

Irulan watched Cameron get-up. "You do realize it would be taxing for you to do that." She stood-up to help. "Let me."

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

She watched him hopefully, shivering still.

"...maybe it's broken?"

Parker came in from the cold, a cross between wired and tired. Three mochas and an espresso will prop you up no matter what. "Hey," she said, carefully sitting down.

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Dick rolled from underneath the couch so he could look at Parker. He didn't look particulary happy.

"The couch won't let me sit on it." he says, looking up at her.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker stared at him, blinking. "Did it put you in time-out when you tried, or what?"

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"No. I tried to lay down on it and I fell through." says Dick. He took his hand and put it through the couch a few times to show her. "See?"

[irulan-atreides.livejournal.com]

Irulan saw Parker enter, she looked tired and care worn. "Hello, Parker."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Irulan." Parker smiled as she sat down, rubbing her face. "You're not wearing your spiffy hat."

[irulan-atreides.livejournal.com]

"One of my headdresses turned to blueberry pie, I am still trying to finish eating it." She said, full of woe. She looked around the room, most occupants were translucent, she wondered if it was an epidemic she looked at Parker and wanted to ask if she was feeling translucent as well. "Are you feeling well?"
