Fourth Floor Common Room, Thursday morning

Ami was taking it easy. And trying to figure out if anything from what she remembered is important. There was the map she saw on the wall of the corridor she was being dragged through.

Getting a piece of paper form her bag, she sat down on the couch and started sketching what she remembered of it.

[ooc: open, duh. come, ask about aliens :)]

Conner's soccer ball came skittering into the common room, and Conner chased it in.

"Hey," he said, realizing someone was in here. "Whatcha drawing?"

"Alien spaceship?" asked Conner who nope, hasn't met Ami yet, his eyebrows immediately shooting up. "Like, are you making one up for a story or something?"

A voice -- it sounded like Ethan's -- in the back of his head asked, Or as in the kind of aliens that abduct people and experiment on them? It's a movie classic standby, dude.

Sometimes Conner hated it when Ethan was right. "Conner McKnight," he said, giving her a friendly smile before he sat down nearby. "You saw this ship yesterday? Wait . . . did someone find you unconscious and wounded like I found Tori?"

"You do?" Conner dug his phone out of his pocket and checked it; sure enough, there was a voicemail message from Tori (http://connernotconnor.livejournal.com/306.html?thread=131634#t131634) waiting, and he took a moment to listen to it, his expression growing more worried. "What happened? She and Lana both told me it seemed like they'd been gone for days, and you guys all look pretty busted up . . . I say we go after these goons," he concluded because it's been so long since I had him use a cheesy piece of stock PR dialogue.

Mmm, logic. Logic always tended to bring Conner's impulsive plans to a fantastic screeching halt.

"Well, uh, but," he sputtered. "We gotta find out! We can't let them keep doing this!" See, identifying point A and Point B didn't pose a problem for Conner. It was just drawing the line in between that screwed him up.

"Hey Conner." Billy waved distractedly.

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2007-03-02 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
"Yo, Billy," Conner said, looking him over carefully. "Tell me you know something about what's going on with these abductions, man."

"I might know what they look like." Billy said.

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2007-03-02 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
"Do you know how we can get to them?" Conner asked intently.

[identity profile] l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com 2007-03-02 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
"No." Billy sighed. "I'm not sure who all's been taken either."

"Tori, Lana, and Ami here that I know of," Conner said thoughtfully. "I can go back over the radio broadcasts, or check out the clinic tomorrow and see who's been in and out of there, maybe?"

[identity profile] l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com 2007-03-02 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
"The clinic seems like a better idea." Billy said. "The radio folks seem like they might have missed a lot of this." Something had been bothering him. "Why am I the only guy?"

[identity profile] connernotconnor.livejournal.com 2007-03-02 05:44 am (UTC)(link)
"You --" Conner paused. "Huh."

[identity profile] l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com 2007-03-01 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Billy came in, after showering and changing. "What's this?" he asked.

[identity profile] l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com 2007-03-02 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
Billy nodded. Then a sudden thought came. "Hey, you saw them, right?"

[identity profile] l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com 2007-03-02 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
"Could you...sketch them?"

[identity profile] l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com 2007-03-02 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
"That's it." Billy said breathlessly. "Can I?" he held his hand out for the pencil.
