4th Floor Common Room - Thursday Evening

One would think that after the bit on the beach with the nakedness and the staring, Rose would have learned to run far, far away from gremlins when they ventured near.

One would think.

Rose, however, was special too busy berating the gremlin for stealing her clothes in the first place to notice him coming closer, fangs bared.

Which was why shortly there after, Rose came rushing into the common room, her hair fixed by little birdies caught back in a ribbon and the long skirts of what looked like one of Morgana's dresses swirling about her ankles.

"Oh my! This is a terrible mess," she exclaimed, clapping her hands together in front of her chest as she surveyed the Common Room. "We'd better clean it quickly before our little friends come home from the mines. They'll have had a long day's work, and they'll want their dinner."

A moment later, she was skipping around the room, wielding a duster and a mop and somehow managing to leave everything sparkly clean in her wake.It was probably the song that Rose was happily carolling that did it.

"Just whistle while you work
Put on that grin and start right in to whistle loud and long
Just hum a merry tune
Just do your best and take a rest and sing yourself a song"

[OOC:  It's been a Week.  Crack is happy-making.]

"Not yet, no," Alex shook her head. "They weren't able to come to Parents' Weekend the past couple of times because no one would be working the family Sub Station."

Okay, her brothers would be there but like her parents would trust them with it for the weekend. Um, no.

"Sub station," Kyle repeated. "So they're technicians or engineers?" Not sub-station, Kyle, Sub Station.

"Not exactly, no," Alex shook her head, smirking a bit. "When I said Sub Station, I meant a place that serves sandwiches."

Though, she wouldn't put it past her dad to have been a technician at one point in his life.
