Fifth floor common room, Monday evening

Sokka stumbled into the common room early Saturday morning and laid down heavily on the couch. Early -- there was normally more sun when he woke up on the weekends. He yawned, rubbed his eyes, turned the TV on, and scratched himself. He started flipping around looking for something resembling Saturday morning cartoons, and happened across the beginning of the news instead...

"MONDAY!?!??! How in the WORLD is it MONDAY already!??!?!"

His shout could probably be heard all the way down the hall. And he didn't even know about the dinosaurs yet.

Rodney thought he heard his roommate shouting as he headed down the hall. He went into the Common Room to investigate.

"Are you kidding?" Rodney asked incredulously. "I wasn't sure this weekend was ever going to end. In fact, I was fairly convinced that I would be ending before it did with the way things were looking."

Sokka blinked at him. "Oh, NO!" he cried. "I slept through something cool, didn't I?!?!"

"Well, if you consider the entire town being overrun by dinosaurs something cool, then yeah, you must have missed it. I could have died." Rodney thought that was the most important thing about the whole ordeal. "Huh, and here I thought I was a heavy sleeper."

Evie came in after classes and some time spent with books that weren't about dinosaurs, and squeaked when she saw Sokka. "There you are!! You didn't get eaten! Yay!!"

"Hi!" Sokka said with a yawn, and reached out for a hug. "Eaten by what?"

Evie willingly went forward and gave him a good squeeze, relief and happiness at seeing him again coming to the fore. "A Tyrannosaurus Rex, or a sabre-tooth tiger, or one of those triceratops. I've been reading about them, they could have made you into pate'!" Another squeeze. "I'm so glad you're all right!"

"A WHAT?!?!? And I MISSED it?!?!?" Not that he knew what any of those things were, but they sounded awesome. "Besides, I totally get along great with sabre-toothed things."

"How did you miss it?" Evie wondered, bewildered. "And I'm certain you do! They're huge and fierce. I'm sure they'd get along with you splendidly." She beamed at him, then added, "They were in the park, in the town, even on the school grounds. I spent Saturday night in the library researching them. I'm feeling very paleontologically knowledgeable now."

Sokka yawned again. "I, uh... I think I've been asleep since Friday?" He was still trying to wrap his mind around that. It DID explain why Momo Junior had been so desperate to be fed, though.

"Paleo..." Sokka blinked at her. "You're really smart, and that's AWESOME."

Which ended up with Sokka getting hugged again. Of course.

"Well, I'm very very glad you're not hurt, and that you're awake and back here." She smiled brightly. "We can watch something with dinosaurs now, so you can see what you missed!"
