Third Floor Common Room, Saturday Morning

[wanna-be-lucas.livejournal.com]

After waking up with an annoying back ache, Lucas padded out to the common room to see if there was anything decent to eat. He made himself some cereal and spread out on the couch, whining something about cocoa puffs and how no one could possibly feel his pain.

He turned the TV on. Maybe some sappy movies would make him feel better.

"Lucas is a stupid name," he grumped.

Coraline's eyes narrowed. "It is not a stupid name," she replied. "It's a perfectly good name."

"A perfectly good name is Luke," Luke said. "Lucas has too many syllables."

"Lucas is a good name. I like that name. And Coraline has even more syllables that that," she told him, crossing her arms. "Is that a stupid name, too?"

"Coraline is a good name," Luke replied. "Lucas is a Luke who's trying too hard."

"Or a Luke is a Lucas who isn't trying hard enough," she pointed out. "Like it got half way there and decided it was too hard to finish."

Not that Coraline really had an opinion either way, but Lucas was her roommate.

Luke's sulk got more pronounced. "Nuh-uh."

Coraline considered him, wondering at the response. "No, it is. Luke is the shortened form of Lucas. So, Lucas has the proper name, and yours is just sort of part of it," she said, then added kindly, "But it's still a very nice name."

"I don't like Lucases," Luke decided unreasonably.
