Around the Dorms - Friday

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

Joan had noticed the influx of Student Council posters around the dorms and decided that she needed better ones than the crappy handdrawn ones she had made.

Luckily, her new friend Toshiko was a computer whiz and willing to help her out. Which was why she was spending the better part of Friday hanging new posters around the dorms.

"That's a good picture," Hannibal said, nodding at it and then teasing, "I wonder if it's in the sibling handbook about having to vote for you."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

Joan grinned. "You could always walk around shirtless and campaign for me."

Yeah, she heard Toby's radio broadcast.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Is that a request?" Hannibal asked, smiling. "Stick a button to my chest and shout your name loud and proud?"

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"It might hurt if you stuck a button to your bare chest," Joan pointed out. "Maybe I can make a sticker."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Same thing," he said and winced. "But yeah, let's avoid sticking me with needles. How's the campaigning going?"

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

Joan shrugged. "Okay, I guess. There seems to be a lot of juniors running, so I'm not expecting to win or anything."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Well, I'm not running," he said and shrugged. "So, one less bit of competition. And hey, you never know around here either."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"We'll see," she said with a smile. "I didn't really want to run in the first place, so it's fine by me. I'm only running because... I'll get extra credit in my Leadership class."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Always a good reason to run," he said, nodding. "I'd run if it meant extra credit but my classes don't really call for me to be all leader-y."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

Joan nodded. "What classes are you in? I haven't really seen you around much."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Oh, I've been here and there," Hannibal said. "I had a class today, phys ed. And I'm also in hunting. Thought two physical sounding classes would prevent me from calling asleep in them."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"Hunting? You mean there's a class on going out and shooting poor defenseless animals?"

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Not that kind of hunting," he said quickly. "It's more...the supernatural hunting."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"Oh... I never heard of that."

Which... wasn't really that surprising. "I guess it would be useful around here, huh?"

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Seems so," Hannibal agreed. "And hey, we get to handle weapons which is always fun."

Pause.

"Responsible fun, I promise."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

Joan smiled. "I'm not sure how I'd do in that kind of class. Though we did some sword fighting this morning in my history class. It was hard."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Sword fighting?" Hannibal asked. "In a history class?"

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. We were learning about King Arthur," she explained.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Huh." He nodded, impressed. "My kinda class. I'd much rather do practical demonstrations then listen to lecture upon lecture any day."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

Joan considered her other classes and flushed slightly at the notion of practical demonstrations in Sex Ed.

"It works for that class, yeah."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Sounds fun," he agreed. "So, got any stickers or should I self make one for me to wear?"

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"Uh... let me see if Tosh printed any for me," she said, rummaging through her folder. "Oh, here!"

It was a small, round sticker that simply said 'Girardi, Junior Rep' on it.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Let's see." Hannibal took the sticker, examined it before peeling off his shirt and slapping the sticker to his chest. "How's that?"

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

Moments like these? Joan loved her new school. "That is excellent campaigning."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Glad to be of service!" Hannibal said happily. "And it's a nice day so I can walk around like this for the whole time."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"You are going far above and beyond your big brotherly duties," Joan told him with a grin.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Well, it's my first time so I'm allowed," he said and bowed slightly. "If you don't win, I'll walk around shirtless with a sticker on me that says 'YOU ARE ALL FOOLS'. Cool, huh?"

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"That would definitely cheer me up," she said.
