Fifth Floor Common Room [evening]

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

Despite the fact that Puck was still nursing his wounds from the other night, he decided to actually make an appearance in a common room tonight. He brought his guitar out with him to tune, idly plucking out chords as he ignored whatever was quietly on the TV.

He'd kept that on for the sole purpose of entertaining him while he was tuning, since as soon as he got it fit to play he was going to try and get back in practice. His hands weren't even as callused anymore.

[this post is brought to you by my needing to have some pretty Mark Salling playing the guitar, and also my inability to even think about purely working on finals.]

After the play, Raven returned to the dorms, and since she lived on the fifth floor, she passed through the common room. She paused to listen to the boy playing guitar, then frowned as she realized he was hurt. "Hello," she said, hoping he didn't mind her interrupting his playing.

"Hey," Puck said, glancing up. Oh, score, hot chick he didn't know. "Sorry if I'm, like, too loud or anything."

Hayley was on the 'wrong' floor, but this didn't bother her one bit.

And she instantly was captivated by the cute boy with the guitar upon her entrance to the common room.

"Oooooh, what do you know how to play?

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"Tons of stuff," he said, glancing up with a smile. "What do you want to hear?"

[trigons_child]

"Not at all," Raven said, smiling at him. "I found your music enjoyable, and I would not have interrupted if I had not noticed you have been injured recently."

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"Oh. Yeah, it's nothing," Puck said, gesturing to his face and rolling his eyes. "Just some jackass with aggression issues who decided to take it out on me."

Because you lied about getting with the girl he liked, Puck.

Raven drew closer. "I am a healer," she said. She knew his injuries weren't severe, but she was already eager to use her gifts to make them go away. "If you would allow me, I can ease your pain."

Puck raised his eyebrow, because well, hey. "...here? What kind of 'easing' are we talking?"

And because Puck was...Puck, he plucked out a few chords from the chorus of 'Sexual Healing.'

If there was one thing bound to draw Firekeeper (and by extension, Blind Seer) into a common room, it was the presence of music. Well, or Tony's vampire show. But in this case it was the music.

The two of them settled on the floor, leaning up against the couch. Firekeeper opened her mouth to offer a greeting, but then hesitated. A greeting was polite, but... so was not interrupting music, she knew. It was a dilemma.

Pity Raven was unfamiliar with the song or she might have chosen her words more carefully.

"I am able to draw what you are feeling into myself," she said. "So that I may give you a release from it."

"Ya know any Elvis?" Hayley said, going for her usual favorite. "Cause I love Elvis. Like... as much as chocolate."

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"...my room or yours?" Puck asked, perking right up with a bright smile. This was totally what he needed to get over his injuries.

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

Puck did a little more tuning for a second before strumming out the opening chords of 'Hound Dog,' grinning at her before stopping. "As much as chocolate, huh?"

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

Puck stopped playing when he spot her. "Hey, girl and dog! Is the music bugging?"

[trigons_child]

"I do not require privacy," Raven said, "but if you wish, we can go to either of our rooms, it does not matter to me."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"Not dog," Firekeeper explained with (for her) a patient sigh. "Bugging?" that earned him a confused look, though.

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"Wolf," Puck corrected with a smile. "I mean, is it bothering you? Too loud?"

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"Kinky," Puck replied, arching an eyebrow. "I'm always up for a little special healing. You wanna do it like...right here?"

That was kinda hot.

"Well, I like a lot of things," Hayley said. "But that was the nice thing I could think of that I liked. Some other things ain't so... talk about with the cute boy, you know?"

Bruce was heading to his room when he heard the sound of a guitar. His first instinct was to keep going. His second instinct was to stop and glare at the noisemaker until he stopped.

He ended up going with his third instinct to prove to Jean that, yes, he did get out occasionally, even though he had studying to do for a final tomorrow.

"I didn't know you played," Bruce said. Not that he had any reason to know. He was still going to make not of this anyway. Turning to the rest of the room, he said, "Good evening."

[kestrelswolf.livejournal.com]

"Ah!" Firekeeper nodded, absorbing the new word. Humans had such a strange way of communicating, honestly. "No, is not at all," she told him. "I am very much... a fan? Of music."

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"I play," Puck said with a nod, tossing off a little wave to Bruce. "Just not recently. 'Sup?"

[trigons_child]

Raven was always pleased when someone would actually allow her to heal them, so she smiled happily. "Right here is fine," she said, sitting down beside Puck.

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

"Yeah?" He arched a brow at her playfully. "Any favorites?"

[sexonyoursheets.livejournal.com]

And up went the eyebrow. "Those sound like the most fun things, the kind you don't say in polite society."
