Fourth Floor Common Room, Monday Morning

Despite not having class until that afternoon, Jenny was up early for once, drinking strong tea, eating cereal straight from the box, and glaring at a blank page in her notebook. Finally, lacking inspiration, she called the first number that came up on her iPhone and asked whoever answered, "What's a good slogan for running for student council?"

Rose Tattoo hung up on her.

Jenny swore and started brainstorming.

Bad things happen when Jenny Sparks doesn't run things. No, that sounded like a threat.
Vote for Jenny Sparks and she might quit smoking! Like that would happen.
Jenny Sparks, the spirit of yesterday...today. Ack, no. Just...no.
Vote for Jenny: The Voice of Experience

Jenny eyed that last one thoughtfully. It didn't suck, she decided, or at least it didn't suck more than any other campaign slogan she'd ever seen. She circled it instead of scribbling it out like the others. Now she needed posterboard and markers. And candy. She couldn't be having a proper student government campaign without a few sugary bribes for the prospective voters. She started making a shopping list.

((Open, as common rooms are.))

Mac wandered in looking still a little sleepy and giving no more than a cursory wave at whoever else was in the room. Right now, she was far more focussed on caffiene acquisition.

Jenny waved back and told her, "There's still tea in the pot, if you want."

After a moment poking around in the cupboard for a mug, Mac shook her head. "More of a coffee kind of girl," she admitted. "But thanks for the offer."

"No problem," Jenny told her. "I'm Jenny, by the by."

"Mac," she introduced herself in return as she tried to scounge up a pot of coffee.

"You're new--ish... right?"
ashockingbitch: (Jenny with a cig)

"Sure, if 'been here since July' counts," Jenny said with a shrug.

"It counts," Mac confirmed with a chuckle as she dumped coffee grounds into the pot.

"Then yes, I'm new," Jenny told her, "which I'm guessing you're not."

"Guess I might be to some," Mac said thoughtfully. "Just, not most. Been here about a year and a half now."

"Yeah, the school hasn't been open all that long, has it?" Jenny asked. She thought she'd heard that somewhere. Maybe while Midnighter was trying to sell her on it.

"Couple of years, or so," Mac said after a moment, setting the kettle to boil. "Don't know anyone that's been here longer than that, anyway."
