3rd Floor Common Room: Sunday Afternoon [1-13-08]

After working out, Lana went back to her room, soaked in a hot bath, then put on comfy clothes and went to hang out in the common room and watch the marathon about the crazy OCD detective. She threw together a couple of different batches of muffins and set them to bake while she curled up on the couch with a cup of tea.


[Open! Come have muffins!]

Why yes, the smell of muffins did draw Alex out of her room. She just hoped that the boys were no longer PMS-y. She didn't think she could deal with that again.

"Hey," Lana said and waved. "I'm Lana, come on in, grab a muffin. Banana and chocolate chip are just out of the oven. Blueberry and poppy seed are almost done."

"Hi," Alex smiled warmly and waved back. "I'm Alex, one of the newbies, if you couldn't tell," she chuckled. "Oh, thank you."

Alex grabbed a chocolate chip muffin, happy to have some sort of sustenance.

"Nice to meet you, Alex," she said with a smile. "There's tea and coffee and hot chocolate there as well. How are you settling in here?"

[stylin-wizard.livejournal.com]

"You too, Lana," Alex nodded, meaning it. "Oh, wonderful. I could use some caffeine," and really, she could. Especially with the events of last night. "Surprisingly well, actually. All though, I think I had my first bought of Fandom weirdness last night."

And boy, had she heard storied about the weirdness.

Makoto was no less susceptible to the smell of muffins than Alex. He suspected that this was likely to happen anytime someone started cooking in the common room. He did, however, make sure his girl-guise was perfect before entering.

"Hello," he greeted the girl he didn't recognize in his best ‘girl’ voice, "have we met yet? I'm Makoto."

"Hello, Makoto," Lana said with a smile for the other girl. "No, I don't believe we have met. Greetings and help yourself to a muffin or two."

"Guys with PMS?" Lana asked with a grin.

[stylin-wizard.livejournal.com]

Alex nodded, laughing a bit. "Yeah, that one. It was... quite an experience."

[notreallyagirl.livejournal.com]

"It's nice to meet you." He smiled at her, and went to look at the muffins. "Did you make them yourself?" Makoto asked curiously, "Or do they just randomly appear?" This, he figured, might be possible around here.

Lana rolled her eyes. "One I would happily pass on," she admitted. "I don't think I'm ever quite that bad when I have PMS."

"I made them," Lana said with a smile. "But I do think sometimes food just shows up here."

[notreallyagirl.livejournal.com]

"I'm not sure I'd trust food that just popped into existance," Makoto mused thoughtfully, "you'd never know where it had been before."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"You don't know where it's been or how it's been made unless you grew all the ingredients from scratch anyway," Lana pointed out.

[notreallyagirl.livejournal.com]

He grinned. "No, but at least I can guess. If it just randomly appears I have to consider other possiblities - especially if it just randomly appeared in front of me while I was watching."

Lana laughed, thinking about Mr. Phale and his ability to just manifest whatever he needed. "You might just get used to things like that here."

[notreallyagirl.livejournal.com]

"I've heard that," he agreed, "but somehow an invasion disturbs me less than food suddenly appearing in front of me. You can fight an invasion, I'm not sure anyone can fight a bunch of food."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Ah, but what if it is an invasion of food," Lana said teasingly.

"I thought I smelled muffins!" Turtle remarked after investigating the scent that kept thoroughly distracting her from her paperwork downstairs. She looked very pleased that her intuition was in fact correct.

[notreallyagirl.livejournal.com]

He had to laugh at that. "I have no idea what I'd do. Possibly wait and see if eating any of it negatively affected anyone else before having any myself."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Turtle," Lana said with a smile. "Yes, lots of muffins, come on in and have some!"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana nodded. "Sounds like a plan."

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

"Gladly!" Turtle chirped, moving over to carefully inspect her option before choosing. "Thanks, Lana. I take it you made them?"

[notreallyagirl.livejournal.com]

"Now," Makoto said, "is it hard to make these muffins?"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana nodded. "I did. There should be banana, chocolate chip, blueberry, and poppy seed. I made a couple of batches of the chocolate in case the guys still have PMS."
