Fifth Floor Common Room, Monday Night

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

Having had a pretty good day so far, Hurley settled in to watch some TV in the common room.

He ended up finding reruns of Exposé.

Dude, it was Billy Dee Williams and strippers fighting crime.

That was totally awesome.

[ooc: Open, huzzah! Come one, come all.]

[ETA: Hurley's player has gone to bed, but he'll pick up tags in the morn!]

"I think these tv's might be magic," Hannibal said, having wandered upstairs and down to the common room. "Where else will you find something as great as this?"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, seriously," Hurley said. "This is... totally ridiculous, and yet I am loving it."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Some of the best things in life are ridiculous," Hannibal said, eyes on the television. "Ridiculous and with half naked girls? Awesomely ridiculous."

Hurley laughed. "My name's Hurley, by the way."

"Hannibal King," he said, smiling at Hurley. "Nice to meet you. I live down a floor but there's no strippers on the tv down there."

"Well, obviously you came to the right floor," Hurley said.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Obviously," he agreed, wandering in. "New guy?"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," Hurley said. "Just started this semester. It's.. taking some getting used to."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"But, strippers," Hannibal said, gesturing to the tv. He shook his head. "Why do you say that?"

Coming back upstairs after a little bit of exploring, Turtle noticed the TV on in her own common room and figured it wouldn't hurt to pop in and say hi.

And that was exactly what she did. Popped in, plopped on a chair, and brightly said, "Hi!"

"My roommate is from space," Hurley said. "Not something I was prepared for."

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Hey," Hurley said. "I... I'm Hurley."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Ah ha," Hannibal said. "I'm not, if it helps. Is she from space like she's a little green alien?"

With the occasional random kitten running around, Bumblebee was walking slowly when he came into the common room, wing-doors and antennae perked high and arms raised up. "Watch out! Oooh, I said you better watch out!"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Oh, no, she looks just like my future BFF's girlfriend normal, you know? I just... yeah, lots of new stuff. But I'm slowly getting used to it all."

Hurley stared, completely speechless.

Dude.

Robot.

"Turtle Wexler!" she responded back, promptly and brightly. "Room 513; it's nice to meet you, Hurley. I take it you live on this floor, too?"

It was, of course, an assumption. Not to be rude or anything like that, but she didn't really know if she'd place Hurley as the type of person to bother with all the stairs unless he did, in fact, live up here.

Finding the room kitten-free after a cursory look, Bumblebee made a sound very much like a sigh as he sat down beside the couch. The staring caught his attention after a moment and he turned towards the boy and gave a little wave.

"Yeah, 529," Hurley said. "I'm rooming with Tahiri? If you've met her, I mean."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"It'll happen," Hannibal assured him. "Takes time. She cute at least?"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Dude," Hurley said, finally deciding it was best to say what was on his mind. "You're a robot."

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I guess," Hurley said. "I kinda have to, like, live with her? So I'm trying not to, you know, get any ideas or anything."

[lil-yellow.livejournal.com]

"It's very nice of everyone to keep reminding me," he said with amusement. "I'm Bumblebee, specifically."

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Oh, yeah," Hurley said. "Cool. Ummm, I'm Hurley. I'm... not a robot."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Awww." Hannibal didn't know if he could do that. "I live with a girl too. It's almost always the first question I ask. I live with Angela. Met her?"
