fourth floor common room | evening | saturday | november 28

Hannibal knew that, technically, he should be spending his free time practicing so he wouldn't make a huge fool of himself when he finally fulfilled his requirements for losing his bet with Kate. Instead, he was sprawling in the common room, lights off, with a loud, action packed movie on the television. He'd ordered himself a pizza and decided that pretending that he didn't have humiliation in his future was a much better plan.

//Impress, or depress? That sounds like a bloody bleak movie choice, luv.//

The concept of death didn't bother Jono so much. The process of dying, on the other hand, seemed decidedly less like something he wanted to dwell on too much.

//I vote yer stick to little rabbits and happy birds singin' in th'forests with whatever princess it is wot sings with happy birds.//

All of them. Ever.

"... I think that's all of them, Jono," Didi commented wisely. "Sometimes they change and it's happy bunnies. Or happy elves."

//Or little deer who've just lost their mothers, or somesuch?//

Jono was not terribly well-versed in Disney movies involving princesses, no.

"I don't think I've ever seen the little orphaned deer sing," Didi said. "Maybe that's the next movie."

//They can come here to film it,// Jono mused. //Have yer seen th'little green things out in th'preserve, yet?//

They were tiny! And green! And kind of cutesy already.

"I have!" Didi said. "I go for walks sometimes, y'know? They're hard to see, but I've spotted a couple. I'm surprised no one keeps them as pets."

//I suppose they'd have to be pretty rare. I've never heard of such a thing before I found myself here,// Jono pointed out, drumming his fingers against the top of the couch in thought. //I don't think there'd be space for one in a dorm room, and there's a good bet that nobody off the island knows they exist.//
