Fifth Floor Common Room, Tuesday evening

[willbethenight.livejournal.com]

After a very productive day in the cave yesterday (where he also shed any annoyances about his weekend travel), Bruce decided to take a night to readjust to a more social, friendly persona before people arrived over the weekend.

Pizza was ordered for anyone who might actually be in the dorms instead of somewhere in their home worlds, drinks were on the table, and there was some college football bowl game on (Bruce didn't care which teams were playing or who the sponsor was). Even if nobody was in the dorms tonight, at least it looked like he was making an effort, which was good enough for his purposes.

[OOC: Just in case there are people around!]

Cara wasn't interested in a chokehold (even if she'd been going for the bait and switch that would have been too obvious a move) or reconsidering.

She was far more focused on returning the kiss, with interest, reaching to cup his face and to keep it where she wanted it.

After enjoying that for a little bit, Bruce pulled back and asked, "You're downstairs, right?"

"Unless the fourth floor moved when we weren't looking." Not that that was entirely out of the realm of possibility in this place.

If she was eyeing him like she was calculating just how much leverage she'd need to sling him over her shoulder and carry him there...the thought had crossed her mind.

Bruce was pretty sure he knew what that look meant. He wasn't going to be carried. Instead, he reached for her hand and started to lead Cara toward the stairs. It was either that or throw her over his shoulder first, something which he didn't think she'd be happy with. Or that she might be a little too happy with, which he figured was better saved until they were in the room.

She might appreciate the attempt another time, perhaps, but tonight she had plans for him. So being lead very quickly turned to attempting to bodily drag Bruce to her room as soon as humanly possible.
