Fourth Floor Common Room, Thursday evening

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

Mister Doom was feeling extra happy tonight. So happy, in fact, that he felt the need to bake cupcakes. No, he didn't - strictly speaking - know HOW to bake cupcakes, but he was Doom. He knew all kinds of stuff. Maybe he just forgot that he knew how to make them.

That was not at all the case. These were some nasty looking cupcakes. So he put extra chocolate frosting on them in hopes that it would make everything better.

Satisfied with his effort, Doom put up a glittery green sign next to the cupcakes.

"DOOMCAKES! BETTER THAN THEY SOUND! AND LOOK!"

[OOC: Open like a common room.]

After her workout at the gym, Hoshi stopped in the common room before heading back to room 423.

"Are you off the happy pills yet?"

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"Doom takes no pills," Doom said. "But I am still happy! How are you tonight, friend?"

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"I'm good. Kind of calm, actually," said Hoshi. "Um, you're not going to go all emo on me, are you? Because if you are, I think I need to leave now."

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"How could Doom emo?" Doom asked. "There are DOOMCAKES. Give me the name of one person who could emo in the face of DOOMCAKES and Doom will sincerely doubt your truthfulness."

"Never mind. I'll take your word for it," said Hoshi. She looked carefully at the cupcakes -- no, DOOMCAKES -- and instead opted to grab a bottled water from the fridge. "So, how'd it go last week? Did you find true love at Caritas?"

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"No, but Doom made new friends," Doom said. "That's enough for Doom. Meeting people and causing smiles."

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, same here. Causing smiles..." repeated Hoshi, giving Doom an odd look.

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"Really?" Doom asked. "What about high fives?" Doom held a hand up for a high five.

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"What the... Never mind," said Hoshi, giving Doom a high five. "Are you sure you're okay?"

Jamie wandered into the common room and stared at the sign.

Then at Doom.

Then at the cupcakes.

"Vic? You feeling all right?"

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"Doom feels awesome," Doom said. Awesomely.

Every time Sokka thought von Doom had gone to the absolute limit of gremlin-bit, he got weirder. Still, this was MUCH better than the old Doom, and that was reason enough to encourage it.

"DOOM!" He grinned. "Doom baked Doomcakes! That's AWESOME!!! Sokka would like a Doomcake! And a high five!"

...Jack smelled food. Thus? Jack was here.

"Better than all right," Doom said, raising his hand for his buddy from his future. "Doom feels like a high five! Come on, Jamie. High five Doom!"

Jack waved to Hoshi, a bit sheepishly.

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"This one is free!" Doom joked, slapping Sokka five.

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Great," said Hoshi. "So, would Doom like to hear my good news?"

Naomi had been wandering the floors in search of a common room that had people in it and she ended up stopping by the fourth floor common room.

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Hey," said Hoshi. "Are you feeling any better?"

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka grinned some more. "All RIGHT!!! You da MAN!!! ..So, what flavor are the Doomcakes, anyway?"

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"Hello, friend! Have a DOOMCAKE!" Doom said.

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"DOOMCAKE, friend?" Doom offered.

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"If it's good, Doom would love to hear it!" Doom said.

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

"Yes," he said, not blushing. Really. "Thanks for, you know, talking."

Jack. Man of words.

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

"DOOMCAKES are their own flavor," Doom said.

He had no clue what flavor they actually were. In a pinch, he might go with 'largely chocolate.'
