Third Floor Common Room, Tuesday Night

[dark_slippy_thing]

Valentine stood back and proudly admired the pillow fort that he had made out of the couch cushions. He wasn't half bad at making them even when he wasn't insane by way of cupcake, he decided, and he might take up designing sets for himself more often in the future.
The only thing he was really missing right now was a low-fat non-whip soy latte.

And a cast, crew, script and camera.

He'd iron out the kinks later. Nothing could stand in the way of the progress of the magic of the movies!!


(Common room open, as common rooms are! Come in and be a star? We can figure out OCD as we go. ETA: As most of us have gone to bed, slowplay is now the name of the game to finish that movie. OCD is up for the filming itself, and I think we have pretty much all the positions filled. But if you want to show up and gawk, you can totally do just that.)

Well she was kind of already famous back home because of Voyager but she didn't think that was relevant now, "not really," she said.

[dark_slippy_thing]

"Oh," Valentine said, then he frowned a little. "Well, alright then. What do you want, if not to be famous?"

Naomi shrugged, "not a great deal," she replied.

[dark_slippy_thing]

"Ah." Valentine shrugged faintly. "Maybe you can get me a latte, then. Low-fat, non-whip. Soy."

[ktarian-wildman.livejournal.com]

"A latte?"

[dark_slippy_thing]

"Low-fat, non-whip, soy. Yes."

[ktarian-wildman.livejournal.com]

"Um...what's a latte?" Naomi really had no idea what that was.

[dark_slippy_thing]

"It's a... you know," Valentine made a cup out of his hands, and then wiggled his fingers a little, "It... has... no whip. And..." He paused, then waved his arms a bit for emphasis. "And soy."
Because he obviously knew exactly what he was talking about.

That really didn't help Naomi, "uh..." she said as she tried to figure out what he meant.

[dark_slippy_thing]

Valentine had begun to flail his arms about by this point.
"Soy! Soy! You know, instead of milk, because it's more... More..." He paused and frowned a little. "You know, I don't know why. I like milk more than I like soy. I think the soy thing is just because that's what I wanted the last time I directed a film. So I'll take my latte with milk."
He pondered a moment more.
"For that matter, I like whip. So a low-fat milk latte with whip. Yeah."

Naomi blinked, "uh...are they easy to make?" she asked, since she figured that was probably a good thing to know.

[dark_slippy_thing]

If Valentine was able to blink at this point, he probably would have.
"You know... I don't know." How did you make a latte, anyhow? "I think it just involves heating milk and ... doing something with coffee. Or something."

[ktarian-wildman.livejournal.com]

Naomi knew how to make coffee, black coffee especially, so maybe this latte thing wasn't that difficult, "so are the ingredients here in the common room?" she was wondering if she needed to go and search the other common rooms.

[dark_slippy_thing]

"I think maybe they are? Is there milk in the fridge?" Valentine was beginning to get a little confused. Nobody had ever asked him questions like this when he was demanding a latte the last time...

[ktarian-wildman.livejournal.com]

Naomi had a look in the fridge and found the milk and then she found the other ingredients or at least she thought they were the other ingredients. Since she wasn't really sure how to make a latte she somehow managed to make something that resembled one. Whether or not it was like it was supposed to be remainded to be seen, she handed the drink to him, "is this okay?"

[dark_slippy_thing]

Valentine took the latte with a bit of a confused "thanks" and took a swig.
He had never had a latte with salt in it before.
He finished it off.
He tilted his head to the side thoughtfully.
"Not bad," he decided at length. "Rather nummy, actually."
