Third Floor Common Room, Late Wednesday Morning

[vanillajello]

Kate hadn’t slept well, and was feeling pretty cranky. As a result, she didn’t really feel like dealing with people. She wouldn’t have come into the common room at all if she hadn’t thought that something there was going to make her feel better.

Namely, the vanilla jello pudding cups she’d bought the day before and stored in the common room fridge for the night.

And which she couldn’t find anymore. Because just half an hour earlier, little blue men had taken them with them.

”Who the fuck stole my pudding?!” It was safe to say that Kate was not happy.

Leto wasn't particularly happy either. He still didn't have any shirts, and he was also concerned about Alice. But he needed breakfast, so he headed towards the common room. It really wasn't warm enough for being shirtless, and that didn't make things better.

Kate was going through the stuff in the fridge for about the seventh time. Seriously, no pudding? Not even a single cup?

And she was keeping up a steady stream of ranting. Not exactly yelling, but slightly louder than her normal speech. "...no-good, inconsiderate, thieving fuckwit! What the fuck, seriously! I needed that pudding! Bastard!" And so on and so on.

"Did the little blue creatures steal something from you too?" Leto asked as he entered the kitchen, quietly hoping that they hadn't taken all the food.

[vanillajello]

Kate's rant got cut off as she turned around. "Little blue creatures? What?"

"Is there any particular reason you're wandering around half-naked?" Azula drawled. She had settled on one of the couches laconically intent on ignoring the world but it was hard to ignore a half-naked man.

Leto sighed. "My shirts were stolen by little blue men. I apologise if my half-dressed state offends you," he replied drily.

This was Azula, he knew. Dinah had talked about her.

"It not so much offends me but it did strike me as inappropriate to the setting," Azula answered. He had the same eyes as Professor Atreides.

Mat stomped into the room. "I don't suppose you've seen my hat?" He sighed. "Or my right boot?"

[vanillajello]

"I don't think I'd know they were yours if I saw them," Kate pointed out. "But I'm gonna guess that I haven't."

Mat slumped into a chair. "Then I guess I'm staying in this morning," he lamented. "There were my only pair." He smiled over at her. "I'm Mat, by the way. Hello."

[vanillajello]

"Kate. Hi," she replied, managing a little smile. It wasn't his fault her pudding was gone. "Mat, huh? You must be one of the new kids I missed at the picnic."

Leto looked at him over the rim of his coffee cup. "The tiny blue men stole them too?"

It might be noted that he was lacking a shirt. The tiny blue men had been rather thorough when it came to those.

"Burn me," Mat groaned. "There are tiny blue men? Different than gremlins, right?"

"Oh man, oh man, oh man," Bobby was muttering to himself as he wandered in to the common room and started checking under cushions. "Oh you've got to be kidding me- oooh hey, a quarter!"

[vanillajello]

"What'd you lose, Bobby?" Kate asked. "I think we're down some shirts, a boot, a hat, and six pudding cups."

[longislandiceme]

"My BlackBerry- or more accurately, Warren's BlackBerry, that he gave me to use while I'm at school here," Bobby sighed, shoving the quarter in a pocket. "I don't think a quarter's gonna cover the cost of replacing it."

The shine caught Mat's eye. "Oooh, is that silver?"

[longislandiceme]

"I wish," Bobby grumbled. "Just a quarter. And not even one of the cool ones with a state on it."

[future_sandworm]

"Good morning," Leto said. "Leto me guess, little blue men?"

[longislandiceme]

"Is that who did it?" Bobby frowned. "I just woke up and my phone was gone."

[azuldragon.livejournal.com]

"Lost something too?" Azula didn't particularly care but it had been fun watching him wander around like a headless pig-chicken.

[longislandiceme]

"Yeah," Bobby grumbled. "My phone."

[ooc: omg did not get this ping notif till now.]

Azula entered the common room after her training and sat on the couch. "Someone stole your food?"

[vanillajello]

"Yes," Kate said, now looking a little less ragey about it. "Little blue men, apparently."

"Little blue men?" Azula raised her eyebrows, "Are they spirits?"
