Roof, Tuesday night

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

Cassandra rather liked her new roommate. Meg was a genuinely nice person, and friendly in a way that reminded Cass of someone from another life.

But Cass was used to being alone. Especially at night. Even more especially during those few hours of sleep she allows herself. So after lying in the dark for a while, she had slipped out of the room and made her way up to the roof. It was quiet here, and she could be alone for a bit. Maybe even get some sleep.

After spending a few minutes staring out over the grounds, she begin stretching. Cassandra hadn't really had much chance to practice over the previous week, and up here no one would bother her.

ooc: Open. Someone should totally bother her.

After potentially planning a new piece, A.J. discovered one of his larger brushes missing and went up to the roof to see if he'd left it there during his big bout of super emo painting. "Hey, new girl," he said with a lift of his hand and a wave when she spotted her, smiled a little, and went poking around where the canvas had been to see if the brush was still there.

Cassandra stopped stretching when he came up and turned to watch him. She waved back, her answer soft, "Hey." Her eyes followed him across the roof curiously.

[by137.livejournal.com]

Nope, not there. A.J. frowned a bit, hands on his hips as he surveyed the area, wondering where it might have gone.

"You...haven't happened to have seen a paintbrush around here, have you?" he asked, turning toward the new girl. "About...yay big, probably stained dark blue?"

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

She closed her eyes, thinking for a moment, then opened them and shook her head. "No," she said in a tone of voice which meant that it wasn't up there as much as she hadn't seen it.

A.J. frowned a bit, with a disappointed little sound. "Damn," he muttered, glancing around once again, although without too much emphasis. "Wonder where it's gone to." He drew in a breath, a sight sigh, and threw up his hands in a lazy sort of shrug. "Oh, well. I'm A.J., by the way." He moved over to her a bit and offered his hand. "Least I get to meet a new person if I can't find my brush, right?"

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

Her own hand extended almost before his did, anticipating his movement. "Cassandra," her own smile is very slight, but visible.

Anathema headed for the roof, a small, collapsible telescope and red light torch with her. "Good evening."

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

Cassandra stopped in mid-movement, one leg extended in a long lunge, and looked over. "Hey," she lifted a hand in greeting, watching the other girl curiously.

[practicaldevice.livejournal.com]

"Anathema Device." Anathema said as she set up her telescope. "Exercising?"

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," Cassandra nodded. "I haven't really had much space to stay in shape recently." She shrugged and waved a hand to indicate the roof, "There's lots up here."

Anathema began to twist and turn the various knobs on her telescope, trying to adjust it. "I just assumed this would be the best place to see the stars."

Bart had yet to have a class this week and he was slowly going insane from boredom. Not even work and rearranging things in funny ways to annoy Turtle helped.

So, he headed up to the roof, idly wondering how fast it would take to fill up water balloons to throw at people. You never knew when that would come in handy.

Oh! Person! Bart waved cheerfully at the new girl. "Hi!"

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

Cassandra blinked once. Twice. Then she frowned, "Bart?" The boy certainly moved like Bart... that barely restrained sense to every step. But he certainly didn't look like he recognized her.

[fastestkidalive.livejournal.com]

Bart frowned, looking down at his shirt. Was he wearing a name tag or something?

It made sense to him, shush.

"How'd you know my name?"

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

She looked very confused. "Um... because I know you? I think?"

[fastestkidalive.livejournal.com]

"You do?" Bart frowned, tapping his chin as he tried to think of a reason someone would know him and he wouldn't know them. And immediately came to the conclusion... "Is it because I'm famous where you're from? It is, isn't it!?"

He bounced, thinking it over. Oh yes, he could picture the museums dedicated to him, the best Flash there was. And no mention of Wally anywhere at all, because he was a jerk. Never mind that she called him Bart and not Impulse or Flash, that would hit him later.

Hopefully.

Probably not.

"I knew I was cooler than Wally would ever be!"

"Hello Bart," Haku smiled noticing the ADHD boy on the roof as well. "It's been a while."

[fastestkidalive.livejournal.com]

Bart paused, staring at Haku with huge eyes. Someone really needed to tell him Haku wasn't a pretty girl and was, in fact, a pretty boy.

"Hi."

[snow-white-boy.livejournal.com]

"Hi," Haku chuckled. "How are your classes going?"

[fastestkidalive.livejournal.com]

"Haven't started any yet," Bart replied sulkily, which quickly disappeared in the blink of an eye. "How about you?"

[snow-white-boy.livejournal.com]

Haku climbed up onto the roof and nodded at the girl there, doing stretches and made his way to the railing. "Nice evening," he smiled in his highly efeminate way.

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

She nodded back politely, watching the way he moved. "Yeah." Her movements slowed down, but didn't stop completely. She was a bit distracted because Haku moved like some people she knew from... before.

[snow-white-boy.livejournal.com]

"Are you new here?" He asked politely watching her. It was an interesting stretch that she was doing.

[iseewhatyoumean.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," she said as she shifted her weight, pulling her left leg back and up so that her heel rested against her head for a moment.

[snow-white-boy.livejournal.com]

That was impressive, and more than Haku could or want to do. "Welcome to Fandom then," he smiled brightly. "I'm Haku."
