Fourth Floor Common Room | Friday Evening

Peeta had almost been here for a full week and the whole thing still didn't feel quite real to him. Not living in fear was a new thing, and he wasn't quite sure how to react to it so he decided to settle down and do something familiar to clear his head. That something being baking, obviously. The kitchens were well stocked enough but the equipment was different than what Peeta was used to so he decided to stick with making cupcakes rather than anything too elaborate. The first batch was done and cooling and the second was almost ready to go in the oven. He was even making his own buttercream frosting because that can of pre-made stuff he found in the pantry was gross.

It wasn't so much clearing his head so much as it was a nice distraction, but he would take what he could get.

[Baking is so an identity. Open of course]

"We could sue!" Totally logical.
solarhippie: ([neu] Ummm...)

Karolina tilted her head at that claim. Slowly.

"... I'm not sure that's true."

Tony shrugged at that. "People sue over everything. I think I've even been sued once."
solarhippie: ([neu] Self-protection.)

The headtilt remained, but turned more curious.

"Really?" she asked. "What for?"

Who sued teenagers?

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2012-05-11 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Douchebags, that's who.

"Patent issues." A beat. "Totally not the point. Totally meant as a joke."
solarhippie: ([pos] Kind of curious.)

[personal profile] solarhippie 2012-05-11 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh. Well, I'd rather not sue anyone." She smiled, briefly. "There are cupcakes now."

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2012-05-11 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"I will keep that in mind for future legal action," Tony assured her seriously.
solarhippie: ([pos] Yes I am pretty cute.)

[personal profile] solarhippie 2012-05-11 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
She shook her head and smiled again. "I'm Karolina, by the way. Hi."

"Tony," he said, offering a hand. The one without a cupcake. "Not actually as insane as I'm sure you think I am now."
solarhippie: ([pos] Easier when you are smiling.)

[personal profile] solarhippie 2012-05-11 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
"I try not to judge that quickly," Karolina assured him as she took his hand. "But it's nice to know anyway."

"From the future, past, some weird world without pizza?" Tony asked with a grin.
solarhippie: ([pos] Free spirit.)

[personal profile] solarhippie 2012-05-11 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
"About eight years into the past, I think." That was still so, so weird, and she almost looked sheepish about it. "But we definitely do have pizza."

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2012-05-11 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, thank god for that," Tony replied seriously. "You get used to all of these here, I swear."

A beat.

"Mostly."
solarhippie: ([pos] Are you for real?)

[personal profile] solarhippie 2012-05-11 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"Mostly," Karolina repeated, wryly, nodding. "Well, I've gotten used to strange things before. I think I'll be fine."

Tony snorted at that. "If it involves an alien god falling out of the sky, Darcy already beat you there."
solarhippie: ([neu] Ummm...)

[personal profile] solarhippie 2012-05-11 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"... Alien god?"

Somehow, she managed not to ask whether it had been a rainbow glowy alien god. Somehow.

"Norse, she said." Look, Thor hadn't shown up where he was from. Not yet.

GIVE IT TIME.
solarhippie: ([neu] Listening dubiously)

[personal profile] solarhippie 2012-05-11 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"But," Karolina said, because this was important to her, no reason, really, "doesn't that mean European rather than alien?"

[identity profile] hoorayimrich.livejournal.com 2012-05-12 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
"I thought so too," Tony agreed. "I'm pretty sure where she's from makes less sense than here."
