Second Floor Common Room, Wednesday Evening

[wantstodirect]

Tonight was the World War I flashback episode with a hot guest star, lots of time in the trenches and enough homoerotic subtext to keep Mason's fangirls squeeing for weeks. Plus, of course, Lee Nicholas, who would be shirtless for at least one scene, if Tony remembered right. Poor James Taylor Grant. He would keep getting those flesh wounds in the torso area.

Tony had a bowl of popcorn and a can of pop and was in his usual spot on the couch in the common room to watch Darkest Night.

Dinah padded down a floor, wearing huge pajamas and a bathrobe after a long shower to deal with all her new bruises. No Merlin in the room, so.... "Hey. Did I miss anything yet?"

[wantstodirect]

"Lee Nicholas naked," Tony deadpanned.

"No!" Dinah gasped, then looked at him more closely. "Tonyyyy..."

[wantstodirect]

Tony snorted. "I wish!"

"Hey, Dinah," Eric greeted, with a smile. "You look comfy."

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"I am very very comfy." Also covered up; they might be pajamas, but Dinah had shown more skin at the gym. "To cushion my new bruises from today's work-out. How are you settling back in here?"

[notasuiciderisk.livejournal.com]

"Pretty well," Eric said, "although I must admit I'm kinda missing some parts of the cruise." He blushed a bit. "Dojima and I went dancing, and I, uh, met a guy..."

And not too long after Tony came Firekeeper and Blind Seer, who settled in to their usual spot as well.

"Tony," she greeted with a smile. "You have fun on the ship?"

[wantstodirect]

"It was awesome! I'm sorry you didn't come. Did you have fun back here?" Tony asked.

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"Much," Firekeeper nodded seriously. "I am sorry to be missing the other fun, but not sorry I miss it on a boat."

[wantstodirect]

"It was so big, it was hardly like being on a boat at all," Tony said.

"Blysse! Blind Seer, hi, how've you been?" Dinah asked, pleased to see them. "I brought some postcards back from the trip for you. And a hat!" She grinned at Blind Seer. "Not one for you, though."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"Postcard? What is?" Firekeeper asked curiously. Blind Seer let out the smallest of growls at the 'hat' comment, cutting off abruptly at the clarification that it wasn't for him. "He say thank you for not bringing him a hat," Firekeeper translated dutifully. "And we have beened well. Quiet was nice, for a time."

Dinah held up her fingers to show the size of the postcard. "Little photos of the places we went, so you can put them up in your room if you want. I figured they'd get here after I got back if I mailed them. And you're welcome, Blind Seer," Dinah grinned. "I always think those dogs wearing hats look silly, so I figured you'd hate it."

"Hey, cool. A wolf." Marco said, actually sitting up. "Wolves are cool."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

She'd been here long enough that she knew the slang sense of the word now, so Firekeeper just smirked.

"Yes. We is."

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

Marco let that pronoun just settle there. "Hi, I'm Marco."

Eric wandered into the common room, bored out of his mind.

"Oh, hey," he said, as he caught what was on TV. "This is the show with the hot detective guy, right? And the vampire with all the homoerotic subtext?"

[wantstodirect]

"It's Darkest Night," Tony said. "Though I think all the vampire shows have homoerotic subtext. I mean, it's totally a metaphor for repressed sexuality."

[notasuiciderisk.livejournal.com]

"Fair," Eric allowed, as he took a seat. "But yay, hot detective guy! What's his name? The actor, I mean. Lee something, right?"

[wantstodirect]

"Lee Nicholas," Tony said. "Look, I'm sorry, I know I've met you, but I can't remember your name."

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

Marco chucked a piece of popcorn at Eric to get his attention. "Hey, do I know you?"

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

Marco was bored and kind of wandering around. "Hey! Television!"

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Hey! Marco!" Dinah called back, and held up the bowl. "And popcorn! Come and join us. It's vampire detectives!"

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

Marco plopped down next to the popcorn. "Hot blonde?" He asked with a wink.
