Lobby: All Day

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Posters had whee handwavily gone up in the dorms and town announcing two Student Council sponsored events during Spring Break.  The first being Free Coffee Day on Wednesday, and the second, an Ice Carnival all day Thursday.

When people came down to the lobby on Wednesday, it looked like a set from the coffee shop in Buddies had moved in.  In reality, the Perk had set up a second branch in the lobby and the beringed barista was there to provide coffee, coffee drinks (and tea and hot chocolate for the philistines who didn't appreciate coffee) as well as soup, sandwiches, pastries, anything a hungry Spring Break student could need.

The couches have all been moved into "conversation groupings" with funny lamps on wee tables providing light.  There's a mix of reading material from terribly pretentious to comic books and just about any board or card game you could mod imagine.  


[OOC: Open for getting coffee, chatting, modding board games.  The free coffee's in the lobby so anyone is free to join in]

Annette wandered down to the lobby after her phone call from her mother. She felt a little bad for lying, but knew that it was a worthy lie. Yes, she has categorized lies now. She might possibly burn in hell one day.

Oh, well, didn't serve a purpose to dwell on the hereafter. 'Cause look! There was coffee and patries and everything smelled wonderful down here!

She would get a coffee and a pastry and sit and enjoy what was left of her morning.

Ami had intended to stay up all night, but had fallen asleep for a few hours towards the end. When she woke up she decided that fluids were in order, so here she was, hoping for some tea.

"Hi Annette."

Peter grinned at Annette. "Morning to you. How's your Spring Break?"

"Hey, Annette," Anders said as he headed toward the Holy Grail of Coffee in search of the Ultimate Mocha of Doom.

"God I need sugar." Billy mumbled.

Mac is definitely not a girl to turn down free coffee when it's offered to her. This is like heaven.

She snagged a totally vegan, omg pastry as a mid-morning snack, and scanned the lobby to scout out a place to sit, while she waited for the barista to finish making her coffee.

Waved at Mac. "'Morning."

Tori had managed to get some sleep last night, after staying up with Ami in the common room. She had regained a little bit of energy, so she decided to head down to the lobby, intent on finding some food.

She still looked slightly worn out and the bruises were fading ever so slightly. Tori took that as a good sign.

She managed to find some tea and a pastry, it wasn't the greatest breakfast but it would do.

Peter nodded at Tori because his mun couldn't remember if they'd met. "Morning. How do you do?" He took a second and looked more closely. "Are you well?"

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"Tori," Annette said, walking towards her. "Are you sure you should be out of bed?" She was so worried for her friends.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac gave Tori a little sympathetic smile, purely because anyone with bruises like that deserved that much from her at least, whether she really knew them or not.

"Tori, hey."

Sometime after Teddy had left that morning, Chad remembered that he should probably go to work. Part of him didn't want to, but he reminded himself that it could be a good needed distraction. Guitar in hand, he made his way toward the door and noticed the little set-up in the lobby.

Free food and much needed caffeine could also be a good distraction. He decided to grab something to take with him to work.

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

She noticed Chad immediately. I mean really, who wouldn't? And she remembered her promise to Teddy.

"Hey, Chad." Annette said, approaching him slowly.

[imac-kenzie.livejournal.com]

Mac smiled quietly at Chad over her coffee, and gave him a little wave with her free hand in greeting.

Isabel snagged an extra large mocha with extra whipped cream and a banana nut muffin and found a seat on one of the couches. She opened her notepad and started reviewing the list of things to do before tomorrow's ice carnival.

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter found a seat by Isabel. "Seems to be going well so far, hmm?"

Unsurprisingly, Zuko was on his way out to get food when he passed by the lobby. His destination changed immediately and he went to grab a couple of sandwiches from the table.

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter raised a hand to wave at Zuko. "Morning, Zuko. How goes it?"

Hermione's going to see if she can't get into the library, but at least the bookstore, but she's a little startled by the new look of the lobby. Plus she's tired and like Willow said, tea cures all British ills.

She gets a cup, still trying really hard not to scratch at the bandage on her left hand.

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

"Morning, Hermione," Peter said. "How do you do?"

When Anders wandered down to the lobby and smelled the free coffee, it was like a shining bright spot in a week full of craptasticness and he went straight up to the poor unsuspecting barista. "Oh my gods, have you moved in here for good?!?"

He didn't let the horrified stare he got in response stop him from ordering the biggest mocha possible, with double espresso.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel didn't think anything of Sunday night's radio. Monday's made her eyebrow raise just a bit, and last night's? Well that caused twitching of an entirely different nature. Still, she wondered exactly how well Anders was coping with everything.

"All that sugar and caffiene is going to have you bouncing off the walls," she said, taking a sip of her own mocha.

Setsuna (the philistine) was happy to find free offerings of tea and soup that would do her weary body and mind good. She tried not to flop too much onto a couch, hoped the deep sigh of minor relief wasn't too obvious.

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

Ami waved to Setsuna from her seat on the couch.

Buffy liked free coffee, sandwiches and boardgames, so she showed up, got the things she liked and found a sofa to sit down in.

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter waved to Buffy. "How do you do?"

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy wanted coffee. Billy wanted anything that would keep him from falling asleep (http://l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com/16720.html) for awhile.
