Second Floor Common Room, a little after noon

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker was talking as she entered the common room. "And this is the Second Floor Common Room, which is the best, of course. Anyone will tell you that. It got blown up once, but then it was fixed."

She flipped on the TV set and started looking for Smile Time or a monster movie.

And possibly other students to inflict wee tiny grown ups on.

Alanna? Was making very weird noises.

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Jack? Grinned at her, starting to be amused by the whole thing. "At least she's cute," he said. "I wonder what her mom looks like."

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

Alanna? Continued flailing. And trying to get air into her lungs. Faithful was beyond that as he rolled around on the floor.

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"You okay?" Jack was beginning to be a tad concerned about Alanna's flailing and apparent inability to breathe. Maybe it was a side-effect of the weirdness?

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

"I barely know you!" Alanna managed to squeak out.

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

That didn't help his ever-growing confusion. "And?"

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

Alanna continued flailing. "She's Aly!"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"And?" This was starting to feel like the conversation that was never going to end. Or make sense.

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

"She's my daughter from the future!" Alanna finally managed to string together, while flailing and gasping for breath. Faithful? May have been having a seizure or something.

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"Oh!" Now it made sense. "Ohhh," he added, eyeing her curiously, starting to smirk. "I can see that, yeah. You're both gorgeous. So, can I assume at some point in the future we get to know each other a lot better? And is your cat okay?"

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

"Neither my cat nor I are okay." Alanna managed to get out. "I have a boyfriend! Who isn't you! And I don't want kids!"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"But she's so cute! And sweet! Obviously she takes after me." Jack was starting to have fun with this. Probably a little too much. "If you've got a boyfriend, I guess we'll have to work out some sort of co-parenting agreement."

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

Something in Alanna broke. Possibly her sanity. "Gurgh."

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Deciding that was a sound of encouragement, Jack kept going. "I could have her every other weekend maybe? And I guess we should figure out if we want her to have any brothers or sisters."

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

Alanna was working out the logic of killing Jack and how that would affect Aly. There was an odd twitch to her eye.

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Jack snickered, caught it, and very seriously said, "You know, if this is going to work, I can't be the only one making plans. We have to do what's best for Aly, after all."

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

"If I kill you, she's never born, and we all live happily ever after." Alanna pointed out.

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Jack suddenly felt surprisingly protective of Aly. "Except for Aly," he pointed out, frowning at Alanna. "Apart from the paradox aspect, you can't do that to her."

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

"Well...yeah." Alanna admitted. "You broke my brain and sanity."

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"Then my work here is done." Jack beamed at her. "Seriously, though. It wouldn't be that bad. I'm very nice."

Alanna took out a chocolate bar and began eating it. Whole.

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"I can get you testimonials if you want." He eyed her, inching just a bit further away. "Or possibly more chocolate."
