Fifth Floor Common Room - Friday Evening

[armybrat-lois.livejournal.com]

Lois? Totally not about hanging around some volcano. She was, however, all about kung-fu movies and she happened to stumble across a channel full of them. She popped some popcorn and grabbed a soda out of the fridge and settled down on the couch for an evening full of ass kicking. The movie that was on now had some weird plot about elephant theft. Animal stealing and ass kicking. It doesn't get much better than that.

[Open! Not gonna lie, I love this movie]

"And there you go, being nice again," she teased.

"I could be...not nice, if you prefer," Ned said, nodding. "I mean, my glares tend to end up with me looking away, arguments go nowhere because I see no point in argument, and why be mean when I could be nice? I like nice."

"You're good at nice. I like you nice," Lois said. "I'm just not used to nice. But I like it. The nice is nice."

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

"Then, I'll keep being nice," Ned said. "Unless I'm asleep. When I'm asleep, I'm just...asleep. Or cold. Or hot. Or just tired. But not nice. So, we'll just have to not meet when I'm sleeping."

"I think I can manage that," Lois said. "But then again if I did see you when you were sleeping I'd probably just end up waking you up and then you'd be nice again."

"Well." Well, Ned really couldn't argue with that. "I think I'd be sleepily confused at first."

[armybrat-lois.livejournal.com]

"That's a completely valid reaction," she said. "I wouldn't blame you if you were downright grumpy with me for waking you up."

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

"Why would you wake me up anyway?" Ned wondered.

[armybrat-lois.livejournal.com]

"Oh I can think of tons of reasons. Monkeys attacking, all the showers in the school are spurting out Jell-O, I bought a great new pair of shoes and I had to show them off," Lois shrugged. "Tons of things."

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

"Huh." Ned didn't really know if he'd want to wake up for a few of those things but, he'd try to be interested while being sleepy anyway. "Why would you be in my room?"

[armybrat-lois.livejournal.com]

"Because if I woke up my roommate she'd be way too excited about the whole thing," she said. Lois thought her roommate was annoying. "I like the laid back subtle kind of nice when I'm delivering news about attacking monkeys and Jell-O showers."

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

"You have this all planned out," he said, almost amused. "Jell-O Showers?"

[armybrat-lois.livejournal.com]

"Hey, it could happen," Lois said. "And when it does, wouldn't you like a little warning beforehand?"

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

"It'd be nice not to get covered in Jell-O," Ned agreed with a nod. "And, um, if there was...anything you needed to be warned about, even while sleeping, I'd do it."

Somehow. Maybe he'd just yell through the door.

Lois grinned. "I'd appreciate it."

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

"Anything for..." Ned finished that sentence in his head and it just sounded...odd. "Anything for someone who wants to tell me about shoes and showers."
