Fifth Floor Common Room [evening]

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

Puck lounged on a sofa, a few boxes of Chinese food before him, as he flipped aimlessly through channels before finally settling on VH1 to watch the Top 100 Worst Songs ever, or something.

He wasn't all that interested, honestly, but it was something to have on in the background while he conducted a little experiment he called, "Does food really attract cute girls people to common rooms?"

Puck being Puck, cooking was out of the question unless everyone wanted something flambé. So he had purposely gotten way more food than he would normally eat (though, you know, it was Chinese food. He'd still eat it in an hour if no one showed.) and set in to wait. Meanwhile, some horrible band with frizzy hair squalled away on the television.

Bod probably wasn't the gender Puck wanted to see but he did live on the floor and it was hard not to be drawn by the smell of good food. So, he appeared in the door and peered in.

"Having a feast?" he asked, giving Puck a nod.

Puck nodded, swallowing, and gestured with his chopsticks to the food. "I'm sharing, though, in the name of being able to fit into my suit tomorrow. Help yourself."

[therewaslife]

"Thank you," Bod said, wandering in and taking a peek in what Puck had purchased. "I hadn't even thought about that. I shouldn't have had that chocolate today."

Not that he was afraid of not fitting his suit but, well, he hadn't thought about it and now he was.

Puck glanced over at Bod for a moment, and replied, "I think you'll be okay, dude. Unless it was tons of chocolate. Then you might break out."

[therewaslife]

Bod paused and glanced over at Puck. "Break out of what?"

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"Like, your face," Puck said, puzzled at having to explain this. "Your skin'll break out and you'll get zits and I'll have to call you Pizza Face or something else, and no one wants that, man."

[therewaslife]

Bod frowned in consideration and then shook his head. "I don't think I ate quite enough chocolate for that. Even if it happened, I don't think Kate would mind."

Well, Bod hoped she wouldn't mind something physical and uncontrollable as that.

"You're taking Kate?" Puck asked, raising a brow appraisingly. "Like, hot little blond Kate with the blue crap in her hair sometimes? Nice work, dude!"

Effy was drawn less by the food than she was by curiosity and noise. But still, hot girl leaning in the doorway, that was success for him, right?

"What the fuck is that?" That was probably supposed to be who, but under the hair who could really tell.

[therewaslife]

"Well, she's taking me," he said, looking down to hide both a slight blush and a light laugh. "But yes, that's her. She asked me the other day. I'm only a sophomore so I'm sure I'll be one of the youngest there."

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"One of the top hundred worst songs," Puck told her, leaning back to look at her with a smile. "Couldn't you tell?"

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"Aww, you're so little." Puck, shut up, you're a junior. "What're you planning? Dude, what's she planning? You get her a flower? Book a hotel room?"

[therewaslife]

"Planning?" Bod asked, paying a little closer attention to Puck now. "I wasn't aware I had to plan anything. I've never been to a formal dance before. At this point, I've purchased a suit and know I have to dance. There's other things?"

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"Get her a flower. The kind she can wear on her wrist," Puck advised. "Girls love that shit."

"DUDE! Chinese buffet! Mad props for the Puck-man!"

Kurt did a goofy little dance as he headed over to the food.

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"Totally, dude," Puck said amiably, giving Kurt a little wave. "Though I'm not sure I've ever been that excited over moo shu."

[therewaslife]

"Flower," he said, mentally repeating it so he'd remember. "And...why a hotel room?"

[pastmewrong.livejournal.com]

Right. Effy curled a little smirk and moved further into the room. "Obviously got a busy evening planned."

"Expecting people to join you for this assualt on your eardrums?" Yeah, yeah, didn't look like she was going anywhere fast. Shh.

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"For the afterparty!" Puck said knowingly, waggling his brows. "You know." He made a noise akin to a squeaking mattress.

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"I brought bribes to make up for the chosen programming," Puck promised, pointing to the Chinese food. "I'll even teach you how to use chopsticks if you don't know how." He thought that was probably charming.

[therewaslife]

"The aft--" Oh. That realization dawned quickly and Bod stopped eating for the moment. "Is that a requirement of these sorts of dances?"

[bamf-tastic.livejournal.com]

"Well, not over MOO SHU," Kurt agreed, poking at the cartons. "But if you have General Tso's, I'll do backflips!"

[pastmewrong.livejournal.com]

Charming might be pushing it, but Effy certainly looked amused. "Can't say I'm an expert," she allowed after a moment. "That mean you are?"

[bamf-tastic.livejournal.com]

Kurt waved at Nobody. "Guten Abend!"

[bamf-tastic.livejournal.com]

"It is music!" Kurt told her cheerfully.
