The roof, Saturday afternoon

[notmyownage]

So, it was official. They said it on the radio and everything. Fandom sucked, and was out to get her.

Okay, so they didn't say that bit. But they did confirm that the latest weirdness meant it was, like, the one time she could have gotten any of her family to actually visit the island. She figured it would have been nice if her parents showed, but she could forgive them. She barely even remembered them -- she'd been too young when they'd died. But to have Joshua not show up?

That was just . . . mean.

So she was up on the roof, staring vaguely over the edge, watching out for people wandering around with their dead loved ones and generally being grumpy. It was probably a really good thing she and Scully hadn't put a trebuchet up here, yet.

[ooc: Roof of emo is open, yo. My poor girl is working on an epiphany, but she's absolutely botherable.]

"I've been saving up? I can probably spot you some of it."

He made a face and there went that stupid pride thing. "No, I can manage it. It's fine."

[notmyownage]

"No, seriously, let me help. You wouldn't even be going if it weren't for me. It's only fair."

"Sure, I'll let you help if you let me test the experiment first," he smirked at her.

Claudia rolled her eyes. "Fine. Pay your own way, then."

Yeah, that probably wasn't going to make him feel better about her doing the experiment.

No, it wasn't, but he wasn't really okay with owing someone money either.

"Stubborn wench," he teased, because obviously this was all her stubbornness' fault.

"I'll bear that title proudly."

"I could make you a badge or a pin," he offered, chuckling.

Claudia pointed to a trio of buttons just under the lapel of her short sleeved over shirt that was totally there all the time, omg. "I never say no to more interesting flair."

"Scouts badges?" Jacob asked, to lazy to lean forward and investigate. Besides, guessing was fun.

[notmyownage]

"No. But that could be cool." One was a button for an early punk band, one a simple smiley face, and one was a giraffe.

They came with one of her old jackets, okay?

"Yeah, you are a geek," he scrunched up his nose at her.

[notmyownage]

"I'm pretty sure we already knew that."

"Just establishing it, in case someone gets confused," he teased.
