Fifth Floor Common Room - Friday Evening

[boywonder03.livejournal.com]

Tim decided to put Claire's lesson to use and make himself some dinner. He found the pot she'd been using, boiled water and added the pasta. And then added some more because he was pretty hungry and it didn't look like it would be a lot of food. And a little more, in case someone else wanted some.

[Open with food, 'cause he's making way more than needed!]

"True," Tim said. "Plus if variety's your thing, that's probably the way to go."

"Just not a fan of monotony," Peter said, not realizing how dangerous saying that sort of thing in Fandom really was. "So what brought you here, any way?"

"Got in a bunch of trouble back home, so my dad sent me here," Tim said.

Peter chuckled. "I'm sent here to try to reward me, you're sent here as punishment. They must send out some really varied fliers."

"Consider the variety of students," Tim pointed out.

"Good point," Peter admitted. "I'd love to see whoever is in charge of the marketing. Though it's probably that crazy guy in the pajamas."

"I wonder if they intentionally recruit across the space-time continuum or if it's just a side effect of being on a multiverse nexus?" Tim said.

Peter paused for a moment. 'Recruit across the space-time continuum' wasn't a phrase he was used to hearing in a real conversation. "You know, I don't think I'm ready to talk about inter-dimensional recruiting strategies, when you think about it that way."

"Wuss."

"It just sounds so ridiculous in my head," Peter said. "I'm still wondering if I'm going to wake up one morning and I've actually just been in a coma the past week."

"Multiple dimensions is the only thing that makes this place make any sense at all," Tim said.

"Well, yes. And popular temporal theory supports the idea. Just as very separate entities with no crossover whatsoever," Peter said.

What little he knew.

"I think we're dealing with some pretty advanced temporal theory here," Tim said. "Maybe modern science isn't quite caught up."

[theotherpeter.livejournal.com]

"...and my modern science is fifteen years old," Peter admitted. "I've got a lot of reading to do."

[boywonder03.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I want to do some reading on quantum realities myself," Tim said. "Though I'm not sure I have the math for it yet."

[theotherpeter.livejournal.com]

Peter nodded, even though he definitely had the math. A genius IQ came in handy, most of the time. "Well, you find anything interesting, let me know. I need all the knowledge I can get my hands on." He smiled. "Interdepartmental cooperation and all that."

"Of course," Tim said. "I assume you'll do the same?"

[theotherpeter.livejournal.com]

"Of course," Peter replied. "Least I can do."
