Second floor common room, Saturday afternoon

[lovemykilt]

After spending the morning reading celebrity gossip mags online, Priestly was all set to be a little more social. He put his kilt on over a pair of ripped jeans, used every dye color in his collection to achieve a banded technicolor mohawk (and a little bit of stripe on his goatee), put in a call to Dinah, and hit the common room to whip up a couple hot subs.

After all, if he was going to go about setting fashion trends, he needed to have something that might draw people in, right?

Yeah, and okay, he was pretty hungry to boot. What? He was a growing teenage boy.

This wasn't Jonas' floor but there wasn't anyone in his common room it'd been getting easier to socialize even with people he hadn't met yet. So, he took a moment to take in the other boy's hair (it was very colorful and...tall) before giving a brief wave.

"Hello," he added, wandering in. A few steps more and he noticed the attire which gave him more pause. "I...don't think we've met yet. I would remember you."

Jonas was sure of it.

[lovemykilt]

"Most people do," Priestly said cheerfully, waving a spatula. "I'm Priestly."

[see-beyond.livejournal.com]

"Jonas, hello," he said, giving Priestly a nod. "I didn't mean to interrupt your cooking. Did you need any help?"

Wait.

"I don't know if I should offer that because I tend to burn toast."

[lovemykilt]

"Hey, toast is totally easy to burn. But, uh, I got this." Priestly shrugged. "It's kinda my thing. You want one? I've got a wide variety of meats, cheeses, and veggie products."

[see-beyond.livejournal.com]

"If it's not too much trouble," Jonas answered, nodding. "But yes, I agree on how easy it is to burn toast. I've just recently learned how to use a toaster and experimenting has birthed...some disasters."

"Jonas, hello!" Firekeeper gave him a pleased smile.

[see-beyond.livejournal.com]

"Hello, Blysse," Jonas replied, giving both Blysse and Blind Seer a smile. "How are you doing? You don't seem any worse for wear after the first week of classes."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

Blind Seer padded over to Jonas, intent on angling for ear-skritches. "Is true," she nodded. "Classes is talking a little about some strange things, but," she shrugged, "human world is always full of strangeness, so more is very little trouble. Except, perhaps, if I am expected to read." She made a face at that last statement.

[see-beyond.livejournal.com]

"What are you taking?" he asked, reaching down to provide those ear skritches. It wasn't a hardship at all. He liked Blind Seer and, having never had a pet himself, liked being able to see animals this close. "Mine are strange too in completely opposite ways."

"Hey, Jonas," Dinah said, wandering over to the food area in her green bodysuit and wings. Yeah, she wore this all the time... sorta. "How's your week of newbies going?"

[see-beyond.livejournal.com]

"It's--" Jonas had to pause just to take in the bodysuit and wings. Between her and Priestly, Jonas was being introduced to all kinds of new fashions today. "--well. I haven't really met anyone yet. What about you?"

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

Dinah grinned at the pause, and said, "Hmm, let's see, about four, maybe five new people, I think? Dru and Charles, Jason and Bruce," ack. "And Roy. Who knows another me, apparently. That was kind of weird." Her wings fluttered behind her like they were really attached to muscles for a second as she shrugged. "Easier not to get too overwhelmed, if I keep it to only a one or so a day. How're your classes?"

[see-beyond.livejournal.com]

"Interesting but...very different," he said, eyes flicking to those wings. "One's about physicality and one's about magic defenses. Helpful but different."

Firekeeper was not a growing teenage boy. Just... a teenage girl with the mindset of a wolf. And the mindset of a wolf dictated that, if there were food around, it should be eaten.

Which is why she made her way into the common room with Blind Seer by her side.

"Priestly, hello! Your hair change colors again." Okay, perhaps it was stating the obvious a bit, but hair dye was still kind of new and novel to her.

[lovemykilt]

"Blysse! It has! It does that." Priestly grinned. "Want a sandwich? I got roast beef, ham, turkey, chicken, and/or tofurkey."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"...Tofurkey?"

[lovemykilt]

"Fake meat made from bean curd."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

There really was only response Firekeeper could think of to that:

"Why?"

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Firekeeper," Dinah said, the green wings attached to her bodysuit fluttering. "Hey, Blind Seer. How'd your first week of classes go?"

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"Dinah!" Firekeeper looked up with a smile... which quickly turned to a frown of puzzlement. "You have wings?"

[ooc: I am so, so sorry for not seeing this earlier. I got lost in following everyone's voicemail-trails!]

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

Dinah spun so Firekeeper could see them, then came back around and grinned. "Present from Karla. They're attached to the suit. Magic wings." She fluttered the, feeling the pull across her shoulders. "Aren't they awesome?"

[NP at all, it's one of those days]

After time at the beach, Dinah had returned to her room and put on the dark green bodysuit and wings. Bzzzzz!

The temptation to jump out a window was strong, but she headed to the Common Room, green streaks in her hair and green studs in her ears and nose instead. "Hey, Priestly. Do I rate as fashionable?"

[lovemykilt]

"Admittedly, asking that mighta dropped you a notch. But you look fabulous, either way."

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

"Enh, gotta check." Dinah looked down at the spandexy-stuff and tried not to turn pink. "I loooove these wings, though. I wish it weren't so cold out today, I'd be jumping off the roof without a rope." She wandered over to the kitchen area and looked hopeful. "That smells yummy. And you look good! Jeans plus kilt, who knew?"

[lovemykilt]

"I know, right? Warm and nifty." He turned back to his cooking, but glanced over at her. "And, uh, you've tested those wings, right? At smaller heights?"
