Second floor common room- Thursday night

Feeling particularly social today, Stacey had gone into the common room and made popcorn. She'd even made sure there was moddable popcorn seasoning available in case anyone else wanted some, and she could even put some on hers and not have to worry about it. Go Team Diabetes!

With snacks achieved, she found a seat and turned on the TV, and found that the channel was still on those same orange people from class. And when she went to change the channel... the batteries wouldn't work in the remote.

"...This is not funny," she decided, hitting the buttons on the remote again in case it decided to work this time.


[Idek, guys. Come on in!]

"That reality show with the orange people," she frowned, picking up the remote again. "I think the remote's broken, I can't get it off."

"Orange people?" Matt asked. "Did they turn orange before or after they lost all their common sense?"

Stacey paused. "I'm not sure which happened first, really..." she said. "I'm sure they go hand in hand somehow."

"Then I'm just going to blame genetics," Matt joked. "Have you tried changing the channel at the set itself?"

The he cracked another grin? "Or is it just too far away from the couch?"

"I," she said with a smile, "am sometimes lazy."

Besides, she used to have to change the channel by getting up and who wanted to go back to those days?

"We could try throwing things at the TV and see if we get lucky," Matt suggested/joked. "Or I could try and poke it with my cane."

[identity profile] ihavediabetes.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
"I think we're a little more mature than throwing things at the TV," Stacey said, and paused. "Think the cane would work?"

[identity profile] childhood-taunt.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
"Bet I could turn it off from here," Matt said waving the cane a little in his hand.

Though the distance from the TV and the couch, the cane wouldn't even reach.

"I'll even do it with my eyes closed."

[identity profile] ihavediabetes.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
"Bet you can't," Stacey grinned.

[identity profile] childhood-taunt.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh?" Matt said now twirling the cane a little bit. "What's the bet then?"

[identity profile] ihavediabetes.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
This was going to end in something bad happening to her.

"I don't know," she said, oh so casually. Because acting desperate was sad. "What would you want if you won?"

[identity profile] childhood-taunt.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
Matt pretended to think it over. "Winner takes the other one our for pizza?"

Oh, Stacey. This is Matt. Of course it'll end badly.

Oh no. Processed cheese.

"How about Outback?" she suggested. It made her options a lot easier.

[identity profile] childhood-taunt.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
Matt again pretended to give that a lot of thought. "Deal," he said. "Any particular channel you want?"

[identity profile] ihavediabetes.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
"Anything but this," she said. "No, really, anything."

[identity profile] childhood-taunt.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
Matt grinned and tossed his cane at the TV...

Turning the channel to Real Housewives of Atlanta.

"I'm not sure if I won or lost," Matt mused as the blonde housewife tried to sing a song for her new record.

"It could be worse..."

It could be something to make Rilla freak out.

Matt winced as the woman hit another bad note. "True," he replied. "Plus there's no more orange people. Next time I'll aim better."

He then leaned back on the couch and grinned. "So when are you taking me out for steak?"

[identity profile] ihavediabetes.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
"I thought you didn't know whether you won or not. Maybe you're taking me out," she said.

[identity profile] childhood-taunt.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh, come on!" Matt joked. "Are you really going to lie to a poor blind kid?"

[identity profile] ihavediabetes.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Fine, you won," she grinned. "But I might be owed something if we have to listen to that singing anymore."

[identity profile] childhood-taunt.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, I don't know," Matt said raising an eyebrow. "What did you have in mind?"

[identity profile] ihavediabetes.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
"Something like getting away from the bad singing?" she suggested. "Far away?"

[identity profile] childhood-taunt.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
Matt's grin was getting a tad sly now. "Well," he said oh-so-innocently, "I'm betting you couldn't hear her up in my room."

[identity profile] ihavediabetes.livejournal.com 2012-01-20 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
"Then I think your room might be a really good place to be," Stacey decided. Totally innocently. Yep.
