Second Floor Common Room [Evening]

[dabblinginbitch.livejournal.com]

Ramona had flung herself onto a couch in the common room, in the interest of actually being social. Now, granted, while she had the television tuned to reruns of Rescued by the Alarm -- because who didn't love reliving the early nineties? Such large phones! -- she did have her nose buried in a book as she kept half an ear on the TV.

Look, the last Barry Plodder movie was coming out in a matter of like, a week, and while she wasn't a super-fan or anything, she had to try and remember exactly what happened when those kids weren't just walking around in the woods all the time. That was all they seemed to do for like, half that book. So she was refreshing herself on the events that took place in the latter half of the book, because she didn't want to be caught off-guard again like she had when she saw the last movie and that cute goblin thing had bit it.

[totally open, omg. I am totally watching SBtB right now, too.]

"I wish," Freddie said. "We never actually took the guy to court or anything. We miiight have been jaywalking."

He made an ashamed face. Yes, he was ashamed of jaywalking.

"Oh, shame...boy whose name I don't know," Ramona said, tsking. "Shame."

Freddie chuckled. "Freddie. Freddie Benson. And yeah, we were just kind of caught up in the moment. We were filming a bit for our webshow, and Carly wasn't really looking where she was going."

"Ramona," she said with a little wave. "Ramona Flowers. And still. What did your mom think about you not looking both ways before crossing the street, mister?"

"She blamed Carly," Freddie said with an embarrassed shrug. "Which was not fun to witness. Especially during the time she chased Carly out of my bedroom while trying to hit her with a pair of my undies."

"That was weird."

"You have an interesting life, Freddie," Ramona told him, staring. "And I'm sort of honestly excited for parents' weekend, hearing about your mom. That'll be fun."

"Well, I hope she lives up to the hype," Freddie said with a chuckle. "Though I can only imagine how much she'd freak out if someone told her about the gremlins or any of the many less than safe things around here."

He shrugged. "I love her, but it's nice to be out from under her, you know?"

"You say that now," Ramona replied. "Wait 'til you get a tick."

"I am not going to get a tick," Freddie said, grinning. "And I won't get cloud burn, or break out because of a nonexistent citrus allergy, or any of the other things she tried to protect me from. I'm perfectly fine on my own."

[dabblinginbitch.livejournal.com]

"...cloud burn?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. "Is that a thing?"

"Apparently!" Freddie said. "I thought I had made it up as an excuse not to take my shirt off at the pool. But then she took me to a bunch of different drug stores until we actually found cloud block. Only in Seattle, I guess."
