4th Floor Common Room [Friday, Evening]

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

Angela was bright enough to be saying inside today, thank you very much.

Since she was the worrying type, she was going to be in here, flopped out in front of the television, consciously not thinking about what friends of hers might be doing out there. If she knew people around here, there would be more than a few of them out doing the heroic thing.

She had popcorn (which she had impressively not burnt), and some very non-threatening cliched teen movie. Not a bad Friday night plan, all things considered.

[[It's a common room, and it is ooopen!]]

Peyton had wandered up looking for Angela and was not at all surprised to find her in the common room. "Got enough popcorn to share?" she asked.

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Looooads," Angela drew out glancing towards the door, and Peyton. "Come, help me feel like less of a pig trying to eat the whole thing."

Peyton made her way over and collapsed onto the couch, only limping a little bit now. "Cool. I am in such a popcorn mood for some reason."

"So, haven't seen you in a bit. How's it going?"

"Being back in the dorms is so good for me," she sighed. "The mutant reptiles, not so much. Win some, you lose some."

"Are you okay?" she asked, noting some slight discomfort as Peyton made her way over.

"Twisted my stupid ankle moving back to the dorms," Peyton admitted. "You'd think a cheerleader would be more graceful."

Angela winced in sympathy. "Ouch. Did you get it checked out?" Like previously mentioned, worrier when it comes to her friends.

Peyton shook her head. "Nah. Too far to walk. And this girl named Fiona found me and got me an ice pack and all that good stuff. Sam came to check on me too."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

She nodded, sort of accepting that. "That was sweet of them."

"... You know, injury does give you a great excuse to get some nice strong guy to come sweep you off your feet and carry you around," she offered. Bright side!

Peyton raised an eyebrow. "Got someone in mind? Or are you volunteering Hannibal for the job?" she teased.

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Lots of newbies who might be willing," Angela suggested. "There's some cute ones!"

"I'm keeping Hannibal," she added with a broad grin. "I could maybe, maaaybe manage a short term loan, if it comes to that." Hannibal was going to loooove that she was offering his services. Of course.

Liz had realized that she hadn't been very social as of late and so had decided to correct that, which was why she was now one common room down and standing in the doorway.

"Hey," she said.

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

Angela sat up, checking out the origin of the voice. "Oh, hey."

She thought Liz looked a little uncomfortable just standing over there, so she added a, "Want to join my popcorn and movie bonanza?"

[pyroliz.livejournal.com]

Liz smiled, "sure," she said as she stepped into the common room, "what are you watching?"

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"No idea," Angela admitted. "But this guy wants that girl, and one of them is way too cool for the other, or something," she explained vaguely. "He is cute, though."

She held up the bowl of popcorn in case Liz wanted any.

Liz took some of the offered popcorn, "so it's one of those type of teen movies?," she said.

Blair was in no way going outside. So she was glad to spot Angela in a common room.

"Thank goodness, someone who's sane."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"I think you have a loose definition of sane, sweetie," Angela said, quirking a grin. "I have popcorn to share, though."

[gameknowsgame.livejournal.com]

"You're not outdoors with the crazy people," Blair said. She took a seat, but waved off the offer of popcorn. "I call that sane."

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"Works for me," Angela said easily. "I looked out the front doors when I considered getting coffee this morning, and decided that the outside world was not for me today."

[gameknowsgame.livejournal.com]

"On the upside the dumber residents of Fandom might get eaten," Blair pointed out.

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

Angela pulled a face, going back over her conversation with Hannibal at her words. "I'm sticking with hoping no one gets eaten."

"Had... enough of that, to last me a long, long time. Forever, even." Ugh, zombies.

"All I care about is that it's not us," Blair said. Mostly her, but Angela could be included if she wasn't holding Blair back.

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

"There's a reason we're in here, watching cheesy movies," Angela said easily. She was not touching the complete lack of compassion right there. She just wasn't.

"At least we're not in cabins for this." There was something comforting about being several floors above the danger, rather than almost on a level with it.

[gameknowsgame.livejournal.com]

"Good point," Blair admitted. "Much better to be somewhere with solid doors and walls."

"I love having my own room back," she said, smiling as she picked another piece of popcorn. "Curtains? Not as much privacy as I like."
