2nd Floor Common Room - Sunday Afternoon

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Dick didn't read so he was not one of the kajillions enthralled in Barry Plodder right now. He was, however, watching Ratguy Returns on the TV. Michael Keaton was totally the best Ratguy ever.

The lure of the television was strong. "Oooh, Keaton was a great Ratguy," John commented as he flopped into a chair in the common room.

"Dude, he was the best." said Dick. "Nobody even comes close."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"He was," John agreed. "But I prefer Ratguy to Ratguy Returns," he said, watching the screen.

"Really? That cat lady is pretty hot and knows how to rock the leather." he said. "That alone makes this one my favorite."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"I don't know, as hot as she is, she's pretty darn crazy," John replied. "Besides, the first one has a better plot."

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Plot? Who needs plot? Ass kicking, that's all I want to see." Dick said. You'd think he'd have enough ass kicking with all the dinosaurs and stuff.

Turtle stuck her head in through the door of the common room to see what was going on. "Ooh, Ratguy," she enthused with approval and then came in to find a seat.

"Hey, Turtle." said Dick, sitting up from the couch so she could sit down. "What's up?"

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Well, for ass kicking, I like Ratguy Begins. That movie pulled out all the ninja stops," John enthused.

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Dick." Yes, she still snorted a little when she said his name. "Not much; bored. Place feels a little dead this weekend."

"Hi," Annette poked her head in. "What's up?"

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Turtle!" John greeted her with a grin. "How've you been?"

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Oh hell yeah it did. Ninjas are awesome." said Dick.

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, it's because that stupid book came out." said Dick. "Wouldn't catch me reading that crap."

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

"John! Hi!" Turtle waved at him with a bounce. "I've been pretty good! You?"

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Hey!" said Dick, patting the seat beside him. "Nothing much, just watching Ratguy."

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

Turtle grinned a little. "You should see the numbers around that thing. Pretty impressive figures, you know...."

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"Great," she said and walked in, taking the seat by him. "I love Ratguy."

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Suckers, all of them." he said.

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"This one is the best." He said.

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"I know," she said slouching down and getting comfy. "Micheal Keaton has perfect Ratguy lips."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"I've been enjoying myself," he replied. "How's business?"

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

John nodded. "Especially when they're accompanied by explosions."

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

"Why do you say that?" Turtle asked, tilting her head. "I'm not all 'whooooo!' crazy about it, but I've read a couple. They're not that bad. Entertaining..."

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

"Brilliant, as usual," Turtle beamed. "Finally got in a new employee with the new students. Bart Allen. Know him?"
