Magic Reserves, Preserve by the Cabins, Wednesday Afternoon

[wantstodirect]

There were plenty of treats to make up for the lack of a meeting last week. Well, that and everyone jut deserved sweet things for their efforts against GODZILLA. It was their just rewards.

"Hello everyone! Welcome back to the reserve. Today we'll be discussing how things went last week," Merlin said with a bright smile. "What worked, what didn't work... you know."

"You know what doesn't work?" Karla asked sullenly. "Getting turned into a stuffed version of the monkey-pony creatures all weekend and being stuck in your room. That's not useful at all."

"Turning into a stuffed animal - not helpful," Tony said, pretending to take notes.

...Merlin wasn't going to laugh. Really. It would be cruel to laugh. "...yes." That was a sneeze. Yes. "That's generally a bad idea."

And that wasn't a glare, Karla was directing at her fellow co-Leaders. It was a...non-glaring yet intense look. Or something. "So besides the stuffed creature thing, what other issues can we come up with?" she asked. Not through clenched teeth, really.

"It'd probably help not to turn into live animals, either," Tony suggested. "Or trees."

"But we would never hold that against people!" Merlin added quickly. "So, how about we discuss?"

Snacks table

For one who knows who they are.

The life of a CEO was a stressful one and Chuck had been feeling more and more run down since his father left him Bass Inc. He was losing focus with everything. Clearly he needed to let off some steam, do something the old pre-sort-of-angelic Chuck Bass would do. Something fun.

You know what was fun? Messing with nerds. Even more fun? Messing with nerds using delicious pot brownies. Mostly because you got to sample the merchandise yourself before giving them out.

So that's how those trays of brownies ended up at the Magic Reserves meeting. If the other dorks acted as goofy as Merlin did when high then radio tonight was gonna have some hilarious results.

Enjoy, nerds.

Arrive and Mingle

[wantstodirect]

Mm, sweet stuff to snack on.

Arthur was there. As per usual, he did not partake of the snacks a pre-established habit that sadly meant no hijinks on his end but he did pay attention to the proceedings.

Raven was there, of course, and just a bit nervous because she knew Kennedy would probably be there, and she hadn't seen the other girl since she'd found out she was a demon. Fortunately, there were brownies as comfort food, so she helped herself to one. Or two. Or maybe even three. Hey, she was hungry.

The brownies didn't affect her instantly, but when they did, it was with a vengeance. All her nervousness was gone, and she was feeling no pain. Just the opposite, as a matter of fact -- was relaxed and even a little euphoric. She'd even completely dropped her shields and was projecting how she felt, because everyone should feel as nice as this.

"Brownies! Score!"

Kurt took two and munched away.

No snacks for Kennedy today, actually; passing by Outback on her run this morning had put the idea of steak and lobster for lunch in her head and clearly, the only way to dislodge that idea was to actually go and indulge it. Plus a Bloomin' Onion and dessert and... yeah. For once, she didn't even want to think about food.

She was keeping an eye on Raven, though.

And thinking that maybe if she turned into a hedgehog again, it might be worth considering the possibility of, like, learning to shoot her spines or something. Could hedgehogs do that?

Wait. Was she actually thinking about this? No freaking way. And yet yes. Because funny. Man, that'd be neat...

After the last week and weekend, seeing brownies were an awesome thing. So, of course, Savannah snagged a few.

Look, she could work off the calories later.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[furnaceface]

Jono was not eating the brownies, for obvious reasons. For less obvious reasons that may or may not be related to a certain empath projecting and projecting loudly, he certainly seemed to be feeling no pain, today.

Well, maybe a little pain. He'd just about kill for a cheeseburger right now, and that wasn't about to happen any time soon, now was it?

Chloe hadn't intended to come to the meeting of the Magic Reserves. However, afetr talking to Ino and starting to learn from her, she had ventured outside and happened to be lurking standing on the edges of the meeting to see what they were all about. She never thought she'd be brave enough to come closer to where they were talking.

...

Thank you, Raven.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[life_inshadow]

Tara couldn't resist grabbing a brownie.

Maybe two.

... okay, three. But that was it. Really.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thatsamilkshake]

...There were brownies. Brownies. ..........Brownies.

God, they looked good, even if Francine hadn't made them herself. And maybe she was ready to eat them again? But... brownies.

In the end, she actually slapped her own hand as it was reaching for one.

And then giggled. And stared at her fingers, which for some reason looked huge. Huh.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

Brownies! Woo! Score! Yes!

Dinah would be thinking in exclamation points for some time to come, after she had a couple of those.

Alex was there, only interested in coffee today. She was avoiding the snacks for once.

Discuss!

[wantstodirect]

So we've established that turning into things randomly is not helpful. Anything else?

Re: Discuss!

[bamf-tastic.livejournal.com]

"Before you cover a monster in ice, first make sure your teammate isn't on its nose," Kurt intoned, as if this was an important life lesson that everyone should take to heart.

Re: Discuss!

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

"You shouldn't drain yourself of all of your magic and energy in one sitting during a fight for your life." Yes, wise words from the witch who was eating another brownie.

Re: Discuss!

[trigons_child]

"I still have one of the lizards inside me," Raven announced happily.

Re: Discuss!

[furnaceface]

//If yer ask me,// Jono said, only vaguely aware that something was awry and not particularly caring, //we all just need t'get along. No more tryin' t'kill one another just because of... Because of some weather.//

Really, now. He was from London, and as such he was of the expert opinion that a little fog never killed anybody.

... Er. Except for when it did, in droves. But aside from that.

Talk to the Leaders

[wantstodirect]

Who did not bake any of the goodies, promise.

Re: Talk to the Leaders

[bigdamndestiny.livejournal.com]

Why yes Merlin did have a brownie. How could you tell?

The giggling, you say? Well... maybe it was a give away. He wasn't normally this much of a pre-teen girl.

Re: Talk to the Leaders

[wantstodirect]

Tony was in a pretty good mood himself. These were really excellent brownies. J, GoB done good today.

Re: Talk to the Leaders

[glacial_queen]

You know, maybe sharing had been the right thing to do. After grumping a bit in the beginning, Karla had helped herself to a few brownies (three, maybe four, look, she still had fewer than Raven, okay?!) and started feeling a lot better.

No, really, a lot better. It helped that everything was funny.

It wouldn't have been so bad if someone wasn't also projecting.

OOC

[wantstodirect]

For things not IC.

Re: OOC

[trigons_child]

Anyone who wants to get high but not eat the brownies? Congratulations. Raven is going to be stoned out of her mind and projecting. Amplified. :D

If you don't want it to affect you, for some reason it doesn't. Mystery of the universe, yo.
