2nd Floor Common Room, Wednesday Afternoon

Karla was feeling Crafty today--though, admittedly, this was not exactly news. Karla was often in that kind of mood, regardless of whether the 'C' was capitalized or not. After the Magical Reserves meeting today, she'd decided it was a good day to stock up on some items for the Support Reserves. Magical potions unfortunately lost efficacy after a few hours, but a few simple Healing webs could be activated without her being around with only a few drops of blood, and could heal most minor to middling injuries. Calming potions would be useful in an emergency, as would sleeping draughts. Which reminded her that a few energy powders might be wise, too. Cooling or warming unguents, too, depending on when they'd be fighting. Plus the everyday, non-magical potions for things like bee-stings, sunburn (Karla, being very fair-skinned, made a lot of that), chafes, various aches and pains...

There were also some potions brewing that were for her own use, or to be shared with others, like her moon-time tea and the contraceptive brew, since it seemed like something to have handy for people.

And since she'd promised magical help to several people over the past few days, the common room seemed an easy enough place to find her. Plus, it had more counterspace, a sink, and a stove she was going to avoid until someone came in and taught her to use it properly. A few tongues of witchfire were enough to heat anything, anyway.

Anyone coming in would see Karla singing softly to herself, as she consulted a few large, leather bound books, fiddling around with various pots filled with herbal-scented liquids, or weaving webs in small, wooden looms.

[Common room is open! SP warning for me this evening.]

Ender wasn't in any mood to overthink his fight with Ben right now, and that made sticking to his own room all the more sensible. However, when he'd passed through the hallways, he'd gotten a sense of a familiar person being there - and ducking his head into the common room, he found her pottering about.

"Busy?"

[[ so I am mega sp as bed is soon, feel free to ignore if you'd rather not! ]]

Jack wandered in for food and saw...an apothecary had taken over the whole place.

Oh. "Shoulda known it was you," he said with a smirk.

Jennifer entered the common room, and was a little surprised.

"Whoa, what's going on here?"

Jack gave a head-nod to the other guy in the room. Looked vaguely familiar.

Jack grinned at the newcomer. "I dunno, but I wouldn't drink anything if I were you."

"My mom taught me better than to do that," Jennifer said. "I'm Jennifer."

Jack's dad didn't. "I'm Jack. I don't know if you've met Karla, but she's the one who's causing all the mess."

Jack? Talking smack about someone behind their back? Never.

Leda was indeed looking for Karla. She had something she wanted to ask her. A something that had her dressed in her best clothes. Which of course made her look like a punk street kid with money to spend.

"Oh, I came looking for Karla and I find a magical Martha Stewart instead."

"Hello Bro, what do you know?"

[identity profile] inthereflexes.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
"Not much, Sis. How's it hanging?"

[identity profile] anarchist-queen.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Leda smiled at the boy she didn't think she'd met yet. "Hey there, I'm Leda. What do they call you?"

"I met her at the sleepover party," Jennifer said. "She's nice."

[identity profile] inthereflexes.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"Just...don't make her angry," he said. "You wouldn't like her when she's angry."

[identity profile] not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
"Why would I make her angry?" Jennifer said. "That seems pretty crazy in general."

[ooc: *snerk*]

[identity profile] inthereflexes.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, I'm a pretty crazy guy," he said. It was true. "And I happen to know, she's ticklish." He made a 'shush' gesture, the finger over his lips. "Don't let her know I've told her secret!"

[OMG, I just found out who she is. XD]

[identity profile] not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
"...Don't think you'll have to worry about that one," Jennifer said. "I don't really go around exploiting people's ticklishness.

[identity profile] inthereflexes.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
"That's a good habit, not tickling people. I'm still trying to work on that," he said with a shrug and a smirk. "I'm making progress."

"Pretty good. This place is really cool." Even the alligators had been cool.

[identity profile] inthereflexes.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
"You've been keeping out of trouble?" he asked, reaching over to poke her in the shoulder.

[identity profile] not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Jennifer raised an eyebrow. "I guess you're the resident ladies man, huh?" she said.

[identity profile] inthereflexes.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
"Now, I wouldn't say that," he said. He'd heard about this Chuck Bass on the radio.

"Just a serial tickler," Jennifer said.

[identity profile] inthereflexes.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"I make no admissions of guilt," he confessed.

[identity profile] not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com 2009-06-10 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"Right," Jennifer said. "So, what's up with the hair?"
