Fourth Floor Common Room, Late Morning

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn was dressed in her best dress and her hair was carefully done. There was no sign of her usual leather wear or her boots. In fact, there was nothing with her that even looked like she was the daughter of Robin Hood. She was sitting on the couch with her legs tucked up under her and she was reading what might have been a magazine. From the slight blush on her face, it was obvious that it wasn't your run of the mill magazine.



[[OOC: Gwynn has been Mind-Whammied by Witch!Lana. Here would be the first place to run into her and have the wacky hijinks!]]

Conner hadn't seen Lana since she'd left before he woke up yesterday morning, and he was a little bit sulky about this. So he was wandering the dorm looking for her.

. . . okay, seeing Gwynn when he checked the fourth floor was a slightly guilty-awkward moment.

"Hey, Gwynn . . . whoa, what's with the makeover?"

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn smiled at him in confusion. "Greetings, Conner. Makeover? I'm not sure I understand what you mean."

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

He frowned a little and gestured at the dress. "You're all . . . extra girly today. What's up with that? And what are you reading?"

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

If he was quick enough before she hid it, he might have made out the letters "Vari" on the cover.

"But this is how a lady is supposed to dress."

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

Conner frowned again. "My friend Kira would freak if she heard you say that. It's not like a rule or anything, Gwynn."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn batted her lashes at him. "But as I have been told, a lady is supposed to dress properly and act in a kind and demure manner. To do otherwise is unseemly."

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

"Who said that?" Conner demanded, incredulous. "I like it when girls take charge. That's really hot."

He might have been talking about Lana's aggressiveness the other night, but he hadn't spent two years being friends with Kira Ford without learning something.

"Really?" Gwynn asked... before she grabbed him and kissed him.

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

Conner? Was flailing. But not in a bad way. Mostly.

". . . like I said," he blurted out, his face as red as his shirt.

Shawn waved a greeting to Conner from his place on the couch. He probably would've actually said something if he hadn't had a mouthful of food at the time, and that wouldn't have been a bit gross.

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

"Shawn. Hey, dude," Conner said -- not that the grossness would have bothered him, because he was Conner and did that sort of thing all the time, but for the sake of anyone else around it was probably a good thing.

[justmisplaced.livejournal.com]

Shawn finished his mouthful first, like a good boy, then grinned at Conner. "Not seen you around," he said. "How's it going?"

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

A broad grin spread across Conner's face for a moment. "It's been . . . interesting, dude. And not in a bad way. How 'bout you?"

[justmisplaced.livejournal.com]

"So-so," Shawn said with a shrug. "Feels like I haven't done all that much lately."

He smirked a little at the look on Conner's face. "That's a lot of smile for 'interesting'" Shawn commented.

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, well . . . we'll see," Conner replied carefully. "Don't want to jinx anything yet, you know? I had a big ol' stretch of not doing a lot, and then this week . . ."

[justmisplaced.livejournal.com]

Shawn chuckled. "Well, good luck with it, man." He broke his remaining poptart in half to eat it. "Sounds like whatever it is, it's making you happy."

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

"Maybe, maybe." Conner's gaze darted toward Gwynn for a moment, and he bit his lip. "It's fun, anyway."

Tori waved to Conner when she spotted him. She smiled, realizing she hadn't seen him in the past couple of days.

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

"Yo, teammate," Conner greeted her. He was still a little red in the face from Gwynn's . . . enthusiastic greeting.

[water-wonder.livejournal.com]

Tori grinned, chuckling a bit at the greeting. "Hey, how's it going?" She noticed the slight blush, but wasn't going to say anything.

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

"Today seems to be off to a really good start," he said cheerfully.

[water-wonder.livejournal.com]

"I'm glad to hear that." Tori remarked. "Always nice to have a great start, hopefully the day will continue that way." She didn't see why it wouldn't.

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

"I don't think it gets off to a better start than having a cute girl kiss you," Conner said, grinning like a dork.

[water-wonder.livejournal.com]

Tori laughed and smiled brightly. "I guess it doesn't." She couldn't help but be amused. "Do I know her?" She chuckled, wondering who it was.

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

Conner glanced over at Gwynn. "She did." He leaned a little closer and whispered conspiratorially, "Doesn't she kind of remind you of Kira a little?" Because his player can't stop goofing off with that meta joke.
