Second Floor Common Room - Sunday Morning

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

Meg felt kind of guilty that she had skipped out on all the Easter festivities and hadn't even thought of going to church until this morning. She figured that if she made breakfast for everybody this morning then maybe God would forgive her for being such a horrible Catholic girl.

Which would be why she was in the kitchen this morning making pancakes. The local classic rock station was playing in the background and Meg was dancing around to .38 Special.

[So totally open]

Comments

Ino, coming back downstairs after her lesson with Liir and planning to head out down to town soon, but the smell of food caught her attention and she poked her head around the door.

"Nice dancing," she said cheerfully.

"Thanks!" Meg said, equally as cheerful. "It helps the cooking process, honest."

[intraspective]

"Does it really?" Ino's smile widened. "I'll admit that it certainly looks like it makes cooking more fun."

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"Well, yeah, just standing there waiting for it to cook is boring. And then you get impatient and then take it off the stove before it's done," she said. "Dancing makes the wait less painful."

[intraspective]

"I'll have to try it the next time I cook," she said, "because cooking is so not my favourite thing to do."

"It's not for everybody. Some people are better eaters than cookers," Meg said. "I like to cook when I'm bored."

After talking her dog for his morning walk, Hoshi noticed that someone cooking on the second floor. So after she stashed the dog in her room, she came back to the common room, droid baby in tow, to get some breakfast.

"Hi!" Meg said cheerfully. Then she spotted the droid baby. "What's that?"

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"This is Reizo Sato-Roberts, and basically, he's my homework assignment for Ethics," said Hoshi.

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"He's um...adorable?"

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"He's quiet at the moment. That's the important part," said Hoshi. "I think Professor Skywalker programmed the babies to cry at the worst possible times. He cried all the way through Annette's birthday party on Saturday."

Meg laughed. "I guess it's supposed to scare you into not having kids any time soon."

[intraspective]

"Hah," Ino said, glancing at the droid, "that's totally from Ethics class. Hey, Hoshi."

Says the girl who'd gone through the same thing last semester.

"Hey Ino. How are you doing?" asked Hoshi. She'd heard the radio from the other night, but wasn't sure if she should say anything unless Ino mentioned it first.

[intraspective]

Ino was... so not going to mention it. Not to Hoshi. Not to anyone but a very select group of people. Yes.

"Me?" Ino blinked, "I'm doing alright, I guess. How about you?"

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Not bad. A little tired, maybe. Reizo keeps waking up at 2:30 each morning, and then my dog wakes up at 7 because he wants to be walked," said Hoshi.

Robin, wearing bunny ears and carrying a basket of chocolate eggs, hopped in, and began hiding the eggs where they could be easily found.

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Hey Robin. Happy Easter!" said Hoshi, grinning.

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Happy Easter!" Robin agreed, holding out a chocolate egg for her.

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Thanks," said Hoshi, taking the chocolate egg.

Reizo the droid baby gurled. "Hush," said Hoshi. "You're not old enough for chocolate."

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Ooooh!" Robin cooed at the droid baby. "Hi! What's your name?"

[intraspective]

Ino blinked. And blinked again.

"...hi?" It paid to be polite, right?

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Hi!" Robin waved. "Happy Easter! Would you like a chocolate egg?"

[intraspective]

"Sure, I guess," Ino said, smiling, "and Happy Easter to you, since I'm guessing you celebrate it?" She didn't, but chocolate was always a good thing.

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Yup." Robin nodded. "I'm not sure what Bunnies and eggs have to do with the whole ressurection thing, but hey, it's hard to argue with chocolate eggs."
