4th Floor Common Room - Wednesday Evening

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

Rose had a box of donut holes and some coffee on the table in front of her.  Some of the donuts smelled like maple syrup, but they tasted good which was all that really mattered.

The TV was already on when she came into the Common Room, and Rose didn't change the channel from The Mountie Show quite yet.  The Mountie was cute, after all, and if he would just wise up and kiss his partner, maybe he'd relax a little.  But if he didn't, at least he looked really good in that red uniform.

She lounged comfortably on the couch, typing an email with half her attention and watching the Mounties with the other half.  Weeks without classes were seriously nice.


[HAPPY CANADA DAY!  I want Timmy Ho's.]

Robin had gone up to the roof to practice his guitar, but it was raining, so now he was looking for people to hang out with.

Hey there was someone. "Hi Rose. Did you go on the trip to Arvis?"

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"Arvis?" Rose replied lazily, not looking up from the hot mounties. "Was that the desert thing?"

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"That's the one."

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"Hell no," she said. "Why would I wanna go to some planet covered in sand? With teachers to make sure you only have school-sponsored fun?"

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

Well he half agreed with her. "Yeah I wasn't too interested in a desert planet either."

Zayne had spent far too much time recently trying to work on his Force abilities since there were no classes. And so, he needed a break from that. A break around other people. And tonight that meant a break on the fourth floor.

"Good evening," he greeted when he walked into the room. "What smells like syrup?"

They did have syrup in the galaxy far, far away. Just not maple syrup.

"The donut holes," Rose said, looking up with a quick smile. "Want some? They're on the table."

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"Donuts with syrup?" Zayne asked, grabbing a donut hole to investigate. "I'm kind of surprised nobody in my galaxy thought of this."

They had swords MADE OF LIGHT, after all, mixing donuts and syrup should have been simple. He tried it. And then he gave a satisfied smile. "It's not bad."

"Well, they're Canadian," Rose said. She thought about it for a moment. "I don't know if that makes them good or bad. Which galaxy?"

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"You were in Master Skywalker's workshop, right?" Zayne checked. "It's the same galaxy that he's from, only I'm from way before his time."

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Hi I don't think I've met you yet."

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"I'm pretty sure you haven't," Zayne said, giving Robin a friendly smile. "I'm Zayne."

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Pleased to meet you Zayne. I'm Robin. How long have been in Fandom?"

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"Since the beginning of spring semester," Zayne said. "How about you? I'm sure I've seen you around before."

Hurley came into the common room and sat down on a couch. He was eating from a big bag of Cheetos, rather heavily.

It was how he dealt.

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

Rose's eyes widened as she glanced over at him. "Hey, Hurley," she said. "...wanna donut?"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

Hurley paused. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and then cleaned his fingers quickly with his mouth.

"Thanks," he said. "Sorry. My mouth was full there."

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I kinda noticed," she said, offering him the box. "Everything okay?"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

Hurley gingerly reached out to take a donut.

"I'm gonna get funny looks if I say yes, aren't I?" he said. Most people could tell when he was lying, here.

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

Zayne wasn't terribly empathetic in terms of the Force, but he was very sympathetic in terms of people. "Is everything alright?" he asked.

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

Sadly, when it was talking with a dude, Hurley didn't observe the same sort of courtesy of, say, not speaking with his mouth full.

"Ihhh ihhh ohhhviouhhh?" he mumbled through the Cheetos.

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"I'm sorry?" Zayne said. He couldn't understand any of that.

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Hey Hurley." Robin waved. "How's it going?"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

Hurley's mouth was still full of Cheeto when he said "Nawww so guhhh."

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

Robin understood many animal languages, and even mock Swedish. "What's wrong?"
