Second Floor Common Room, Wednesday Evening

[wantstodirect]

Tony had a box of Timbits from J,GOB and a bomb bottle of Coke. Yeah, he was going for the sugar rush tonight. It was the Halloween episode of Darkest Night, the one where Raymond Dark and his mortal sidekick James Taylor Grant went to a masked ball where all the guests turned into their costumes. Derivative, like so many episodes, but one Tony thought had been done well. Plus Lee Nicholas (as Grant) had a really hot scene where he was cornered by an old friend who'd turned into a evil robot for the night and was trying to kill him.


[Open! Up earlyish because LJ's going down tonight like Chuck Bass in a limo.]

Oooh, food? "Hey!" Jack said with a grin. "Got enough to share?" Yes, food=social on the Burton scale of interaction.

Tony pushed the box of doughnuts in his direction. "Sure, I picked up extra."

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

"Thanks!" Jack took just about exactly one less than what would be impolite. "What's on?"

[wantstodirect]

"Darkest Night. Cheesy vampire detective show. But fun, if you're into that kind of thing."

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

"Sounds good. Cheesy is good."

Peyton made her way in with a big bowl of popcorn. "Decided I needed something to throw at the screen if necessary," she teased. "And I missed last week. Anything good happen?"

[wantstodirect]

"No episode last week. They showed a rerun of that medical show with the cranky guy instead," Tony said.

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

Peyton rolled her eyes. "Glad I missed it then."

[wantstodirect]

"This is the Halloween episode," Tony said, waving a Timbit at the screen. "People turn into their costumes."

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

Peyton thought of the costume she'd considered wearing. "Huh... Not sure I'd like that. Could make a funny - or scary - show, though."

[wantstodirect]

"I think it's one of the better ones, but that's not a very high bar," Tony said.

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

Peyton nodded. "Well, that's good enough for me."

Claire leaned in the common room doorframe. "Oh, it's that vampire show," she observed.

[wantstodirect]

"Yup." Tony waved. "Wanna join us?"

[swipedthatfoot.livejournal.com]

"It was fun last time," Claire decided, plopping on the couch after she'd scrounged some cookies. "What's going on?"

She might mean the show or in Tony's life. It was a multiple-choice kind of question.

[wantstodirect]

"There's a spell and everyone's going to turn into their Halloween costumes," Tony said. He meant on the show.

[swipedthatfoot.livejournal.com]

"So all the girls will be slutty animals?" Claire asked with a raised eyebrow. "So awesome."

[OOC: Dear self, Claire is not Tyler.]

[wantstodirect]

"... slutty animals?" Tony had never been to a high school Halloween party.

"You know, you wear a leotard and bunny ears and you're a rabbit," Claire said helpfully. "Or a leotard and cat ears and you're a cat. It's the most creative costume ever."

"Girls didn't do that up in Vancouver?"

Not even finding out that vampires were real could stop Firekeeper from coming to watch the show. Especially after the disappointment of no episode last week.

Blind Seer was conspicuously absent, this time. He'd begged off on account of needing to hunt; the school cafeteria didn't do much for a wolf's appetite.

And so Firekeeper settled in to her usual spot and peered curiously at the doughnuts. "What is?"

[wantstodirect]

"Timbits," Tony said, offering her one.

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

Firekeeper took it and eyed it warily. "These is bits of Tim? Who is Tim?"

[wantstodirect]

Tony laughed. "Not actual bits of anyone. Tim Horton's this guy who opened a bunch of doughnut shops in Canada, so they're named after him."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

The concept of chain stores was completely out of Firekeeper's realm of experience, so she just nodded and bit in to the pastry. And then grinned in pleased surprise at the taste. "Good!" she declared.

[wantstodirect]

Tony grinned back at her. "Duh," he said. "Why else would I eat them?"
