4th Floor Common Room, morning

Up early, Isabel wandered out to the common room for coffee and quality morning TV. At the moment that meant watching whatever was on for Shark Week.

Setsuna came in after her early trainings for some breakfast and gave Isabel a nod. "Good morning."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Morning," Isabel waved. "There's coffee if you want some."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"Not a fan," Setsuna admitted with a light chuckle, "but thank you anyway. I'm all too entirely set on tea, especially after training."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I wasn't a huge fan. Then I came here." She shrugged. "Now? Caffiene is my friend."

"Training? This early? I'm impressed. I should have gone for a run but I'm feeling lazy today."

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

"Should I be proud, then?" Setsuna's head quirked, amused. "That I've been here and still haven't, as I'm sure you'd all say, 'seen the light?' And I always like to practise early; gets a good start on things and the lighting right before dawn is so nice, but so short."

"Oh definitely," Isabel laughed. "It shows good strength of character to resist the call of caffiene."

"I can imagine. Every once in a while I like to go down to the beach and watch the sun rise."

"Tea still has caffeine," Setsuna babbled slightly. "Some even have significantly more than coffee; it's just a matter of where it comes from. While coffee comes from a bean, hard, solid, thick, tea comes from leaves, light, breezy, thin...Very reflective of the drinks themselves, really."

River woke early as always, and as she was looking more for company than for breakfast she wandered down to the fourth floor common room, bringing a cup of coffee with her.

"Morning," she said to Isabel.

"Hi River," Isabel said. "How are you doing?"

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

"Doing as usual," River said, smiling. "And you?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Same here," she nodded. "No workshops today so I think I'll be lazy for a day."

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

"I might be lazy too," River said. "Or go for a walk." She looked thoughtful.

"It's Shark Week. I might not move from the couch today," Isabel admitted. "Of course after multiple documentaries on shark attacks, I might never go back in the ocean again."

The fourth floor was on the way to the principals office, right? Right? Dick's taking the long way around.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Dick! Nice radio broadcast," Isabel said, shaking her head. "I assume that's what our esteemed substitute wants to talk to you about?"

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"God, I hope that's what it's about." he said. "I'm pretty sure I haven't done anything else wrong lately."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

She laughed. "You don't remember? Well why don't you get some coffee before you go face your fate."

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"That's a good idea." said Dick. "The caffeine will help me run faster if she decided to release the hounds on me. Or something."

"Head back to the dorms if she does. I'm sure people will be more then happy to provide distractions," Isabel offered.

Jude, looking, if possible, mellower than ever, was stuffing bedhead under his toque as he padded in. "Mornin', bra . . ."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Bra?" Isabel asked, raising an eyebrow.

[dude-its-jude.livejournal.com]

"Like 'bro' but for chicks?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I see," she said slowly. "Well in that case...Mornin', bro..."

[dude-its-jude.livejournal.com]

Jude chuckled - mellowly - "Mornin'."

"There's coffee over there if you're looking to jumpstart yourself," Isabel pointed out.
