Fourth Floor Common Room, morning

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel was up early and in the mood to actually cook for a change. So she was out in the kitchen mixing up a batch of banana nut muffins. So what if it came from a box? They'd still taste good. There was a fresh pot of coffee on the counter and Isabel was humming along with the music on her iPod as she cooked.

"He hasn't mentioned it. Not that I'd mind," she shrugged. "Since I watch it anyway. I just worry that he's going to get ideas for class." Isabel tugged on the braid hanging over her shoulder. "I'm not about to cut this off and dye it black."

"I'm with you there," Wyatt said, despite using an icon that spoke to the contrary. "I'm perfect the way I am."

*flees from evil Wyatt*

"Perfect, huh?" She raised and eyebrow and gave him a once over. "Pretty confident in yourself."

[blessed_twice]

"When they gave out confidence, they gave me twice as much, and none to Chris," Wyatt said. "So I have to be confident for both of us."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Only twice as much?" Isabel teased. "I'd think even more then that."

[blessed_twice]

"I can't help that I'm special," Wyatt said, winking at Isabel. "I'm the Twice-Blessed Child, after all."

"Twice-Blessed Child? In all capitals? I'm sensing a destiny," she told him. "Are you supposed to save the world?"

[blessed_twice]

"I have no idea," Wyatt said, shaking his head. "I'm kind of hoping I'm the reincarnation of King Arthur or something, because behold Excalibur!" The sword appeared in his hand when he called it. He never got tired of doing that.

"Show off!" But that didn't stop Isabel from boggling. "That's really it? Arthur's not just a legend?"

[blessed_twice]

Wyatt grinned and made the sword disappear. "I've always been into Arthurian legends," he said. "It just pulled at me for some reason. I've done a lot of reading on that period of history, too, about the basis of the legends. Then one day I said 'Excalibur' and the sword appeared in my hand. Pretty cool, huh?"

"That's actually pretty neat," she admitted. "Of course the question is, do you know how to use it?" Isabel, make innuendo? Never....

[blessed_twice]

"Of course I do," Wyatt said, not afraid to make innuendo right back. "It's pretty big, though, so I have to use two hands."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"That's...actually kind of scary."

[blessed_twice]

"Nothing to be afraid of," Wyatt said. "It can be dangerous, but if you know how to use it well, then you'll have fun with it."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"And I'm sure you're all about the fun," she grinned.

[blessed_twice]

"I try to enjoy life as much as I can," Wyatt said. "Nothing wrong with that."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"No, there's not. I need to do that more often myself," Isabel admitted. "Lately it's been hard. But I'm trying."

[blessed_twice]

"If you ever need a hand," Wyatt said, then laughed. "I know, I know, but a guy can't help trying, can he? Just smack me if I get annoying."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"You're far from annoying Wyatt," she said with a smile. "And I'll keep the offer in mind."

[blessed_twice]

"Let me know if you ever need a dragon slain, too," Wyatt said. "I may need the practice.

". . . unless it's purple and came out of the TV."

Isabel peeled the paper off of a muffin and took a bite. "Cute, charming and a slayer of dragons. You're a guy of many talents, Wyatt. But what's so special about purple TV dragons?"

[blessed_twice]

Wyatt rubbed his temple. "I pulled one out of the TV when I was little that one weekend," he mumbled.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"You did what?" she asked, amused as all hell.

[blessed_twice]

"I saw the dragon and wanted to play with it," Wyatt said, wincing. "So I somehow made it come out of the TV. I'm not sure how."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"And you always take what you want?" Isabel grinned. "I think that's adorable."
