Third Floor Common Room, Monday (After First Period)

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Dawn wasn't sure whether there were any small adults around anymore or not, but, inspired by A.B., she decided that it couldn't hurt to make a full, non-sugar-based meal for both herself and anyone else who was around.

After a handwavey trip to All and Sundries, Dawn had water boiling and meat sauce heating (in separate pots) for spaghetti and she was busy chopping fresh vegetables to be eaten with dip if people wanted. There was also milk and lots of fresh fruit in the refrigerator.

After a very entertaining breakfast -- at least for him and Sammy -- at the Principal's Tower, Dean headed back to the dorms. He ducked his head into the common room on his way by.

"Hey."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Hey," Dawn pushed the carrot she'd been cutting up to the side and put the knife down. "How're your dad and Sam? And your dad and Principal Washburn? Are they back to normal?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Yeah." Dean grinned. "Wishing we all had collective amnesia, but back to normal."

Dawn was already giggling, "That's good. Want some food?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"As long as it's not waffles. I think I'm all waffled out."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Spaghetti, veggies, milk, and fruit okay with you?" She asked, turning back to the counter to begin slicing eggplant, "And yeah, there were a bunch of waffles eaten yesterday." A lot of them by her, but she wasn't counting.

Dean grinned. "Dad's developed this tic when you say 'waffles'. I might just have to find ways to work that into every conversation with him for a while."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"You're so mean," she said, still giggling.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Hey, if I was really mean, I would've left the mess Dad made in the kitchen for them to clean up," Dean pointed out.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"That was pretty impressive," Dawn admitted.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, my Dad's nothing but thorough, even if making a mess."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"I don't know that you're supposed to be quite so proud about that."

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"But it was such a good mess," Dean protested.

After going to that DAMM class, Katara wandered back up to her floor. She was almost scared to glance into the Common Room after the sight she saw yesterday, but she took a careful look then grinned at the lack of Zuko hugging tiny children.

"Hi Dawn," she said, coming into the room.

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Hi Katara!" Dawn smiled at the other girl, "Ever had spaghetti? I'm making lots."

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

"I don't think so," Katara said, smiling back. "It smells really good though. Can I help?"

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Sure! How are you at slicing stuff?"

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

Katara grinned. "I can handle that." She went to find a knife and stationed herself at the cutting board, ready to chop. "So we should probably just feel lucky that we didn't end up children too this weekend, shouldn't we."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"I don't know," Dawn handed Katara a cucumber and kept a pepper for herself, then went to stir the sauce so it didn't burn, "most of the kids I saw looked like they were having a lot of fun."

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

Katara eyed the cucumber and then started slicing it, peeling as she went.

"That's true enough," she paused thoughtfully. "I wonder if Darth Vader became a kid this weekend. ...I wish I could have seen that."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Who's Darth Vader?" Dawn hadn't had the pleasure of meeting him yet.

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

"He's the Ethics teacher," Katara replied. "He's generally horrible, short-tempered, and evil."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Oh, ewww," Dawn made a face, "Maybe he stayed little?"

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

"That would be fantastic," Katara said a bit gleefully. "I wonder if he'd still have this funny mask thing."

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"He wears a mask? Like Ratman?"
