Third Floor Common Room - Sunday Evening

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Chuck had some time to kill before Emmett dragged him off to do radio so he decided to hang out in the common room to make himself easily available. He didn't want to be in his room when that happened; Emmett had the habit of knocking so hard that the door almost came off the hinges. Chuck decided to make himself comfortable while waiting and he had ordered some Chinese food and was now poking at lo mein while watching a movie.

It was really unfair that the chubby kid from this movie ended up with Rebecca Romijn.

[I'm bored omg. And Stand By Me is really on CMT right now fyi]

Eric had contemplated coming home and making waffles. In fact, that's what he'd planned to do -- but he'd been so frustrated after working, having walked by the spot where Merlin turned him into a mouse, that he'd forgotten to stop for more eggs, and so couldn't make any more batter.

Which means scrounging through the common rooms. He stopped by the third floor on his way up, having caught the whiff of Chinese. "Got any extra?" he asked Chuck, flopping down into a chair.

Joan waved, recognizing Eric as one of the TAs for her Sexual Anthropology class and man was she glad she hadn't had that during whatever was going on.

"Hey," Eric said, smiling and returning the wave. "Joan, right?"

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, have whatever you want," Chuck said, gesturing with his fork at the food on the coffee table.

Eric grabbed a container of beef-and-broccoli and a pair of chopsticks, digging in. "Thanks," he said. "This was an odd weekend. Sure, I had sex with Arthur. But then I got turned into a mouse."

Somehow, he didn't think Chuck would mind much the overshare.

Joan was both bored and grateful that whatever had been going on in Fandom for the past few days finally seemed to be over.

As such, she wandered down to the common room to see what was going on. "Hey, Chuck."

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Joan," Chuck said, waving his fork at her. He was capable of using chopsticks but he was really too lazy to put in the effort of using them. "Before you ask, yes, you can have some food."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"Oh, thanks!" Joan said, helping herself to some food. "Excellent movie," she remarked, sitting down in a chair. "So what's new?"

"Hi Joan!" Maron called, grinning over at her. "How have you been you?"

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"Not as bad as some people, if radio is to be believed," Joan said. "How about you?"

While Sam had thoroughly enjoyed spending the last few days in his room, he'd gotten back to the point where going out to find food wasn't a hardship. Of course, that didn't mean he wanted to go far, and he was going to search the common room kitchen until he saw who was already in there. Sam waited in the doorway for a second, quietly trying to decide if he could sneak back out before Chuck saw him.

"Sit down." Chuck had excellent peripheral vision, thank you.

"Hey, Sam," Joan said, waving at him.

Rose got back from Fight Club and showered, but she totally wasn't ready to hang out in her room thinking about how she couldn't give Lissa a call until early tomorrow morning so she found a common room with people in it.

"Hey big brother," she said lightly, going over to investigate the cupboards for food. "And people I don't know."

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Hello, little sister," Chuck said. "How are you?"

[gods-gymnast.livejournal.com]

"Hi!" she said, giving the girl a wave. "Have we met before? I can't remember, so if we did, will you forgive me more not knowing? I'm Maron."

"Thought I smelled food in here," Valentine noted, detouring to the common room before retiring to her room for the evening. Laptop, of course, tucked under her arm.

[notasuiciderisk.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Valentine," Eric greeted her, smiling at his co-TA. "How's it going? Beef and broccoli?" He held out the container in her direction.

"Even if you didn't, it was a good guess," Rose said. "No terrible fashion this time though."

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Good nose. It's Chinese," he said. "You're welcome to have some, if you want."

[gods-gymnast.livejournal.com]

"Valentine!" Maron grinned a bit. "Have you been well?"

[gods-gymnast.livejournal.com]

Maron had spent most of the week hiding out and not impressed with the island once she'd cottoned on with what was going on. Sometimes it was totally unfair the whole God thing, and needing to be a virgin.

"It's boring upstairs," she said, wandering into the room. "Is it boring here, too? I don't think it can be with so many people around, but you never know."

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Depends on your definition of boring, I guess," Chuck said.

Brooke was just passing through on her way back from Peyton's, but when she saw Chuck, she had to take the opportuniy.

"Clean!" she announced. "Ha!"

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

"Congrats!" Chuck said, saluting her.
