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]

Dick was sitting in front of the TV happily, proud of the fact that he suckered Meg into making him breakfast.

He pulled a Rubik's Cube out of his pocket and sat it down beside him. Sparkles was hiding because weetiny!Dick had wanted to play with him like he was an action figure earlier. Sparkles was a living thing, not an action figure. It was insulting. Dick figured Sparkles would come around when he realized that Spongebob was on.

Andrew peeked into the common room. There were people there. He considered running back to his room, but he was hungry.

And there were cartoons.

Maybe they wouldn't notice him. He crept into the room, trying to find a space where he could see the television and hopefully not be seen. Food could wait.

Meg had been watching Dick closely over her cooking so of course she noticed when Andrew came in. Not that she knew it was him. She took off her first (because now she knew she'd have to make more) batch of pancakes off the stove and walked over to Andrew.

"Hey honey," Meg said, taking on that mom voice all girls could bring out when they were around kids. "You hungry?"

Isabel knew if she searched through the common rooms she'd find food. Even better? She found Meg.

"Can I have some?" she asked with a shy smile.

Johnny came running into the common room as fast as his little legs could carry him.

"Hi! Hi!"

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

Andrew hid his face, but nodded yes. He was hungry, and after looking it over, he didn't see a clear way he could get into the cabinet with all the cereal.

He would wait a few seconds before peeking to see if she was still looking at him.

She was still looking at him. Except now she thought that this might be the cutest kid she had ever seen. Awwww.

"Well, I'm making pancakes for Dick," Meg said, pointing over at the kid on the couch. "You want some pancakes?"

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"Of course!" Meg said with a smile. She was glad the Fandom food fairies had restocked on the Bisquick last night. "You can have as many as you want."

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

He glanced over at Dick and then up at Meg before retreating behind his hands. He nodded again, though this time with a small smile on his face.

"Hi!" Meg said, bouncing a little. She loved kids. "You want some food? I'm making pancakes. A lot of them."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Good. I want some and I have to bring some back for Wyatt," Isabel said happily. "He's big so he's going to be hungry."

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Hey dude," Dick said with a wave.

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"I'm starving!" declared Johnny with a bright grin and dimple for Meg. And he nodded emphatically as he made airplane arms and zoomed around her. "Pancakes are my favorite!"

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

Andrew glanced over at Isabel. He thought about waving hello, but that might draw attention to himself, so he just curled up a little smaller in his chair and turned back to the television.

"Hey," Johnny said and gave his head small tilt as he pointed his finger. "I know you...?"

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

Meg smiled again. "Good. I'll be right back."

Since this kid was way cuter than Dick and hadn't pulled her hair this morning Meg decided to give him first dibs on the pancakes. So she was back in a fairly short amount of time with a plate of pancakes, which were already cut up in bite sized pieces.

Meg was going to be a great mom one day.

Andros had woken up that morning and after a while had realized that he was hungry. He had decided to go in search of food and he ended up coming to the common room.

"Hello," he said quietly.

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"Wyatt's still big, huh?" Meg asked. Good. This wasn't some weird Twilight Zone thing where she was the only big person around. "Well, I'll be sure to give you a huge stack of pancakes in that case."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"With syrup? And Tabasco?" she asked. "Because sweet and spicy is yummy!"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"What are you watching?" Isabel asked, taking a seat on the arm of the chair.

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

"Isabel?"

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

Andrew sat up very straight and reached out for the plate with both hands. He hoped Meg had put a lot of syrup on the pancakes because syrup was his favorite.

He should say thank you, but he just glanced up at Meg and smiled before quickly looking away instead.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Uh-huh," Isabel nodded happily.

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

Wow, this kid had a lot of energy. A big contrast to Dick who was laid-back even as a kid. It was really cute. "Well, good. Cause I'm making a ton! I need people to eat all of them!"

Andrew simply pointed at the television, glancing quickly at Isabel before turning back to the program.
