Second Floor Common Room, Saturday Evening

[wantstodirect]

Tony had the DVD for Harry V and a box full of doughnuts from J, GOB, because he couldn't think of any good reason to not have doughnuts for dinner. He put the movie in and flopped down on the couch with the remote.

[Open! Because OMG the 4th floor CR is full!]

Dinah needed to see this movie, to have some idea of what she was getting herself into. She flopped down next to him, and looked wistfully at the doughnuts. "So what does Geoffrey think of this version of the play?"

[wantstodirect]

Tony pushed the doughnuts towards her. "I have no idea," he said. "I haven't asked yet."

Dinah smiled gratefully at him, and took a doughnut before popping open her Sprite. "Mmmm. It's supposed to be good though, right? Not boring, not hard to follow?"

Priestly had done, like, nothing today. He had every intention of continuing this trend.

He wandered into the common room, his hair tall and green, wearing a camo t-shirt reading "Ha! Now you can't see me!"

"Hey, whatcha watching?"

Harper had a basket full of kiwis, her sewing kit and a pair of ripped jeans. It was anyone's guess how this outfit was going to turn out.

"Oooh, what are you watching?" she squealed.

"Harry V," Tony said. "Shakespeare. You one of the new arrivals?"

[wantstodirect]

"Harry V. Research," he smiled. "How're you doing?"

[wantstodirect]

"I hope so," Tony said. "We can try it with subtitles on if it doesn't make sense. Though I don't know how much that'll help."

"Perfect! I can get a feel for how the costumes should look," said Harper.

"I'm doing great so far, though I'm a little upset with my best friend, Alex," she added, walking over to the kitchen area and through the drawers.

"Enjoying my one week anniversary, yeah. I'm Priestly."

"Yeah, I didn't understand half of the words in the bit from the script that he had me reading." Dinah tore her doughnut in half and started nibbling. "So was it like that on the last Shakespeare play? Did it at least make sense by the end?"

[lovemykilt]

"Dig the jeans," Priestly said. He was all for ripped denim.

[wantstodirect]

"What'd Alex do?" Tony asked.

[wantstodirect]

"Tony. Welcome," Tony said. "How much of it do you believe so far?"

[chic-harper.livejournal.com]

"Thanks! I still think they're missing a little something, though," said Harper.

[wantstodirect]

"Yeah, it did. Geoffrey's an amazing director," Tony said.

Dinah might have brightened as soon as she saw Priestly. "Hey! Haven't seen you since, um." Right. Sex Ed. "Monday."

[chic-harper.livejournal.com]

"Well, she's been here for a while and I transferred so we could both go to school together, right? Then she tries to play a joke on me, telling me that I need to watch out for squirrels wearing fedoras and taking notes for the radio. I mean, how did she expect me to believe that?" asked Harper, pissed.

[lovemykilt]

Priestly shrugged. "Well, I dunno. I've heard some weird stuff, but I've always thought that things were weirder than most people thought."

[lovemykilt]

"Dinah! Hey! How's it been going?"

Going by the door of the common room, Seregil was attracted by the sound of the movie. "This is another of Shakespeare's?" he asked after a moment watching.

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Hi," Dinah said, waving to Harper. "We're getting ready for the play. What are you making?"

[lovemykilt]

Priestly tilted his head. "Bad words in sharpie?"

Yeah, he had rather predictable tastes, sometimes.

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Good! Great, even." Dinah grinned happily, recovering from her momentary embarrassment. "Although I'm kind of sad none of my teachers are obviously insane, like I keep hearing about. At least not so far. I tried out for the play at the playhouse. What've you been up to?"

"I'm thinking these jeans need something a little extra to jazz them up, and I just got a good deal on some kiwis. That might be what I need," said Harper, finding a vegetable peeler. She started peeling the first kiwi. "Would you like a bite?"
