Fifth floor common room, Tuesday evening

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia was sore, grumpy, and her hair smelled like monkey. She had no idea how she'd managed to get bruised while taking a nap in her room, but somehow, she'd done just that.

Which would be why she was camped out on the couch in the common room, some fluffy kids movie about computer generated animals playing on the TV, eating ice cream.

Normally, she would say it was too cold for ice cream. But see above notes about her soreness, grumpiness, and monkey-smellingness.

Molly wandered in and plopped down on a couch. "Hey, Nadia. How's it goin'?"

[nadiathesaint]

"I have bruises and I don't know where they came from." Nadia held the carton of ice cream out to Molly. "Want some?"

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Sure!" Molly jumped up to get another spoon quick. She came back and took a spoonful as she sat back down. "What kind of bruises?" she asked with mild concern. "Like, 'my cat stepped on me in my sleep' bruises or 'I bruise when I touch anything' bruises?"

"Um, the first one? Only they're not shaped like paw prints." Nadia rolled up her pant leg to show off one on her knee. "It kinda looks like I fell, but I don't remember that and I didn't have that this morning. Also, my hair smells like monkey."

Billy stopped into the common room to see what was happening, and sniffed. "What's that smell?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Monkey," Nadia muttered.

"What smells like monkey?"

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia sighed. "My hair. I don't know why."

Liz had been really neglected by her mun decided that she was up for being social, "hey," she said as she entered the common room.

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"Hey Liz, how are ya?"

[pyroliz.livejournal.com]

"Pretty good thanks," Liz smiled, "how about you?"

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"Not too bad. You survive wee tiny weekend?"

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia looked up from her ice cream. "Hi." This girl seemed familiar, and not just in a "we go to the same school" kind of way, but Nadia brushed it off.

Liz smiled, "hi,"

[nadiathesaint]

"Have we met? I'm Nadia."

Walter came in, snuck up behind Nadia (with debatable success) and bent to kiss the top of her head.

Uh... monkey?

So, a quick peck and then shameless puppy dog eyes for ice cream.

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia held out her bowl to him. "I think Mr. Neilson took a nap in my hair this afternoon."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

Shameless puppy dog eyes win every time. Walter took the bowl and a bite of ice cream before saying, "That's odd. Why do you say 'you think'?"

Ice cream smells do not tend to waft down stairs, so the only explanation for Stark's appearance in the 5th floor common room was a strange desire to be somewhat social for another evening.

He waved a hello to the room, followed by an actual "hello" and then flopped down in a chair.

[nadiathesaint]

"Hey. Want some ice cream?"

[stykera]

Like he'd turn down free dessert, really.

"Yes. What kind have you got?"

Cassie narrowed her eyes at Nadia as she came in. "So, you still going to be a bitch?"

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia looked up, a trickle of chocolate sauce running down the middle of her chin as she blinked wide eyed at Cassie. "Um, what?"

[robotboyfetish.livejournal.com]

"Oh, so you're gonna acknowledge me now and pretend the stuff earlier didn't happen?" Cassie said.

[stykera]

Stark looked up when the girl he didn't actually know entered, decided that she seemed angry and that not saying anything would probably be safer.
