4th Floor Common Room [Sunday, Late Morning]

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

Angela's plans for today consisted of a whole lot of nothing.

She actually had absolutely no problem with that, and was kicking back, making the most of her free time stretched out on a couch with a large mug of coffee, a sort-of breakfast of microwave popcorn (which she had not burnt, and smelt amazing, thank you) and a book. At least it wasn't trash about hot men in spandex this time. Call it personal growth.

Weekends were really just made for this sort of thing.

"How are you even awake?" Hannibal asked from where he was leaning in the door way and rubbing his eyes. There were still pajama pants but he'd managed a t-shirt, at least. "You should still be in bed."

"It's nearly midday," she pointed out, smiling at his still obviously dozy look. "I got hungry."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Midday is early," he argued, scrubbing a hand through his hair. "The only people who get up before noon are old people, insomniacs, insane people and you."

"Me and my crazy need to get myself out of bed before lunchtime. I like to think of it as a fun quirk," Angela said, flipping her book closed after a moment.

"You don't have to stop reading," he said, wandering in and rubbing his eyes again. "I promise I won't make much noise."

The liar.

"Real people are more interesting anyway," she replied, moving her feet up in case he'd been intending on sitting down. "Popcorn? Or are you going for one of those real breakfast foods?"

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"You make it a point to get out of bed, get dressed and you eat popcorn?" he asked, sitting where her feet had been and then gesturing them back up towards him. "You're kind of weird."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"I like popcorn," she said simply, resting her legs across him. It made sense to her. "And it just happened to be there."

Such logic.

"It's not just for movie nights, you know."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"You got out of a warm bed to eat a buttery food," he said, settling a hand on her legs. "You are so not Miss Health Food. No more making fun of me."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"I never claimed that I was," she pointed out, laughing and offering him that bowl. "If I eat an apple later, I'll at least be able to call it balanced, though."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

He took a handful and shook his head. "And you talk about my weird logic. And this is probably better than a diet of art supplies. Having a good morning, then?"

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"I spent most of it in bed," she pointed out with a grin as she picked at her own handful of popcorn. "No bad there, as I'm sure you'll agree."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Which is why you should still be there," he said mock sternly. "But no, no bad there. You could've gotten me up, you know. I wouldn't have been grumpy."

Well.

"That grumpy."

Better.

Ooooh, popcorn? Jack followed his nose. "Hey, Angela."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Morning." Angela offered a wave over her shoulder. See, there were other people up before midday!

"Up for breakfast?" she asked, raising that bowl a little.

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

"Sure!" he said. "I'm always good for food. How's your Sunday?"

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Going lazily, and well," Angela replied. "The coffee's still fresh, by the way," she added.

"You?"

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

"Lazy as well," he replied, helping himself to some coffee. "Thanks. Just...feels like a good day."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Days when you have nothing to do and nowhere specific to be can be nice like that," Angela said. "While last weekend was a blast, the break is no bad thing."

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

"I'll drink to that," he said, saluting her with his mug. "Hope everything stays peaceful like this for a while." He shrugged. It wouldn't last.


[Leaving for work! and massive SP]

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

Angela smiled at that. "I don't know... I'd miss it if it stayed gone for too long."

"I think I'm addicted to chaos."

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

"What do you mean?" he asked.

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"I mean, if it gets too quiet, I think I'll start to get bored," Angela said with a laugh.

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

He laughed, too. "I take it that bored equals dangerous?"

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"I don't know about dangerous," Angela said with a smile. "But it does mean I have to make my own entertainment."
