Fourth Floor Common Room - Sunday Afternoon

Emmett had spent most of the night exploring the dorms and enjoying being able to walk around without the smell of humans being too overpowering. He was thinking about going into town but decided to pace himself when it came to exploring. If he saw everything too fast then he got bored and when he got bored he tended to make houses out of cardboard and play "General Sherman is burnin' everything" in the yard with Jasper (well, Emmett played. Jasper glared). He had the feeling burning the dorms down by accident would be frowned upon. So around 5 am he staked out a place in the common room and started to watch TV.

Now there was football on! Emmett had his ass on the couch, a football in his hand and was watching the Dolphins playing the Ravens. Then the Eagles were playing the Vikings at 4:30. God, he loved Sundays. He was tossing the football quickly between his two hands but making sure it was at a human's pace just in case anyone came in.

[Open, yes. I hope Miami wins...I think I jinxed them omg]

"Coooooooool!" Emmett said, his grin widening. "So, are you, like, from a different planet or something? Are there flying cars?"

That was a new reaction.

She liked it.

"We got some hovercraft," she said, nodding agreeably. "We're a lil' beyond cars, honestly, but we 'call our land transport 'mules' an' they look kinda like those real, real big yellow cars? An' some of 'em hover. An' yeah, I'm from another planet. It's called Beylix."

"That's totally awesome," Emmett said, bouncing slightly. The couch may have creaked a bit under the weight. "I want a hover car so bad."

Yeah, Emmett, you need something else to wreck.

"I could make one," Kaylee said, thoughtfully. "I'd need an engine an' stuff, an'...prolly a car to work off of. But I could try."

"Dude. I will pay you to make a hover car," Emmett said, totally serious. That would piss Edward off.

"You don't got to pay me," she assured him, now working through the logistics in her head. "It'd take a bit of time, but I could prolly do it."

Emmett grinned. "That's awesome. You really into mechanics? My girl is pretty good with cars herself."

"I grew up helpin' my daddy in his shop," she said, nodding. "Machines kinda just...talk to me." She shrugged. "Your girl -- is she here? I always like meetin' 'nother mechanically-minded person."

Emmett shook his head. "No, Rose is back in Washington. I'm sure she'll visit from time to time. She better, anyway."

"Awwww. I bet that must be tough," Kaylee said, frowning a little. "I dunno if I could do that, with the long distancey stuff."

"Well, she's only a plane ride away," Emmett said. "And we've been together for years so we trust each other and everything."
