Second Floor Common Room, Monday Evening

[wantstodirect]

Due to Skrull invasions and cabin living, Tony was now three weeks behind on the best vampire detective show on syndicated TV, Darkest Night. And this Wednesday was the season finale.

So Tony picked up a box of goodies from J, GOB and settled in the second floor common room with pastries, popcorn and a bomb bottle of cola to catch up on the episodes he'd missed. Pastries for eating, popcorn for throwing at the screen. Given that the first episode he was watching featured a zombie invasion, he was going to need a lot of popcorn.

"Come on, are you serious? No zombie's that tough!"

Dinah was wandering upward after a very fun time at Chilly Boulder, thank you very much, when she heard the familiar theme song. "Ooo!" She flopped down next to tony, and reached for two kernels of popcorn, in keeping with tradition. "What is it, what're they fighting this week?"

[wantstodirect]

"Zombie," Tony said. "Which, by the way, look totally fake."

"I was pretty tough when I was a zombie," Francine said, coming in on that. No, she wasn't. "Ooh, is that a new one?"

[wantstodirect]

"Couple of weeks old, but new to me," Tony said. "Season finale's this week so we gotta get caught up."

"Hi hi!" Dinah grinned at Francine and waved the popcorn bowl at her. "Here, have some, I'm all full of ice cream. And some of the zombies are walking into walls, I think their eye-holes are crooked."

"You got better?" Diana guessed, detaching a cat from her shirt.

Karla smiled at Francine. It never hurt to remain on friendly terms with the people who made good food. And Francine had seemed very kind, both at the Reserves meeting and in Kaeleer. "Hi," she said, keeping one wary eye on the moving picture box.

It wasn't her floor, but Valentine was wondering if there were any notable difference between floors when she came across the small gathering crowd and all the snacks in this particular common room.

"Something going on in here?" she wondered.

[wantstodirect]

Tony waved. "Television. Vampire detective show. Zombies. Want a doughnut?"

[thatsamilkshake]

Francine waved the nearest bowl of popcorn, despite it being Tony's, feeling a bit sad that for once she hadn't brought snacks of her own to offer to somebody new. "Hi!" she called. "Come join us. We're critiquing mediocre zombies."

"Hi, Valentine," Dinah said after the show got to commercial and she looked around for more people. "Welcome to our traditional Wednesday-thing-done-on-Monday!"

Jack aimed a smile at Valentine. "I was wondering the same thing," he said. "Hello."

Like Griff was going to stay in his room for long periods of time with the potential for Karev returning there. The common room seemed busy enough, if less outdoorsy than the campfires for obvious reasons.

He took a seat to see if he could figure out what the program was just from the ads he'd seen around towns.

Tony waved and offered the box of doughnuts. "Newbie?" he asked. "I'm Tony."

Dinah peered over and waved at Yet Another New Guy. Or at least a guy she didn't know. "Hi hi. Here for the zombies?"

[thatsamilkshake]

"Hi, Griff!" Francine gave her cabin-mate -- or now ex-cabinmate, she supposed -- a wave. "Did you settle back into the dorms okay?"

[bitten_notshy]

Jack waved slightly in Griff's direction. "I haven't seen you since the first day," he observed. "Hello."

[bitten_notshy]

Jack didn't feel much like staying in his room after he was done talking to Emmett; a short walk, and he was in the common room, looking a little bewildered at the size of the gathering. "Was there some celebration tonight?"

[wantstodirect]

"Hey," Tony grinned. "We're watching Darkest Night. Come, join us, learn about television through the best vampire detective show currently on syndicated TV."

[oops-mbad.livejournal.com]

"We're celebrating bad television." Diana informed him, shifting Samuel in her arms.

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Hi Jack!" Dinah waved the popcorn bowl at him that she had re-appropriated from Tony. "C'mon and join the mockery and food."

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"So going back home didn't scare you away from here?" Rose teased, giving him a grin.

[oops-mbad.livejournal.com]

Diana had Samuel, a phone call from her mother telling her to behave, and some tinsel stuck in her hair. She was also bored.

"Canada!" She greeted Tony, ignoring the fact that she knew his name.

[wantstodirect]

Tony pointed at her. "The moose invaded."

It wasn't her floor, but she'd never cared about that at St. Vladimir's so why should she start here. "Zombie movie?" she guessed as she came in and claimed a seat.

[wantstodirect]

"Vampire detective show," Tony said, offering her the box of doughnuts.

[glacial_queen]

Hearing voices she recognized, Karla wandered the hallway until she found the source. There were a bunch of people in a room, eating something that smelled tasty and watching...Mother Night, what was that?!

[wantstodirect]

"Hey, Karla," Tony waved. "You seen TV yet?"
