Second Floor Common Room - Saturday Morning

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

Dick had insisted getting a piggyback ride instead of walking the ten feet it took to get to the common room. It was way too early for Meg to say no to people, especially kids.

"Go watch TV. Be good. Don't ask anybody that comes in to play doctor with you," Meg said. She had fallen for the doctor thing before when they were kids. Twice.

After making sure that Dick had found some cartoons to watch, Meg went into the kitchen and got out stuff to make pancakes.

[Totally open. Go ahead, traumatize her into not having kids for a long, long time. And, yes, when she figures out that this is an island-wide thing she'll be making a lot more pancakes to accommodate]

After investigating her hallway, Alex wandered a floor down, lured into the common room by the smell of food.

Noticing how many other kids were in the room, Alex gasped. "Whoa."

It wasn't until she saw Alex's reaction that Meg realized just how many kids were in the room. "Whoa is right. Come on in!"

"Thank you," Alex responded politely, knowing to mind her manners. She eyed the other kids, wondering if she'd recognized any of them.

"Are you hungry?" Meg asked. "I made pancakes."

[stylin-wizard.livejournal.com]

"A little," she admitted. At the mention of pancakes, Alex's eyes lit up. "Ooh, pancakes! They're my favorite!" She grinned happily.

"I'll fix you a plate," Meg said happily. She wondered how much of the school's population she's fed since arriving here.

"Thank you very much!" Alex beamed, excited for pancakes. What? She was hungry. Plus, they were her favorite. You could never go wrong with pancakes for breakfast. Or for lunch or dinner, for that matter.

"I see you found pancakes," Makoto said with a smile, coming in a while later, "and a lot of other people too."

[stylin-wizard.livejournal.com]

"I did!" Alex nodded excitedly. "And they're yummy pancakes, too! You should have some."

[notreallyagirl.livejournal.com]

"I will," Makoto promised, "but I think I want something to drink first. Did you want some juice?"

[stylin-wizard.livejournal.com]

"Yes, please," Alex nodded, smiling brightly. She was thirsty, but she was too short to reach the refrigerator.

"Alright," Makoto smiled, getting two brightly coloured cups from the cupboard then going over to the refrigerator, and checking what there was. "Apple juice good with you?"

[stylin-wizard.livejournal.com]

"Apple juice is fine, thank you," Alex smiled, nodding. She knew she had to mind her manners. Her mom had said so.

"Coming right up!" Makoto said brightly, pouring it neatly into the cups and then putting it away. 'She' delivered the juice to Alex with a grin. "One apple juice, delivered successfully."

"Thank you, Makoto! You're the best!" Alex beamed, accepting the cup and sipping it.
