Third Floor Common Room - Wednesday Evening

Between one thing and another, Kate had never actually watched a live episode of the TV show Bow Arrow.  But she had downloaded all the previous episodes and watched them on her laptop.  Just for professional curiosity, you know.  Someone was making a TV show about a superhero with a bow!  It was almost required she watch.

...and he was really, really hot in the training montages that showed up in almost every episode.  Yeah, she totally watched this for the plot.

[I have been waiting to do this forever!]

"It's like ... balancing out all the centuries of female objectification," Bay nodded. "What show is this, anyhow?"

"We should get at least a few more years of half-naked hot guys first," she said lightly. "Bow. About a guy who wears green eyeshadow and fights crime."
justbeingbay: ([pos] i like this idea!)

[personal profile] justbeingbay 2013-01-24 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
"Does he wear tights, or just the eyeshadow?" Bay asked. "... not that I see how either one helps you beat up bad guys."

"Tights, hood," Kate rolled her eyes. "Cause apparently you dress up like Robin Hood when you use a bow."

Maaaaaaaaybe Kate had heard those jokes a time or two before.

"Unless you're in a gym uniform," Bay suggested brightly. It was the only time she had used a bow...

"At least if you're dressing up like Robin Hood, you can pretend it's a play," she admitted.

"I guess," Bay said doubtfully. "I'm ... not really that much of an archery expert. Or a Robin Hood expert."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-01-24 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
"It's a hobby of mine," Kate said. She paused. "Not the Robin Hood thing because that's way more dorky."

"Unless you spend a lot of time at Renn Faires," Bay cracked, studying Kate. "That's ... actually really cool. How'd you get into it?"

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-01-24 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
"Not Renn Faires," Kate joked. Because they weighted their arrows all wrong, and the bows were crap, and it was stupid annoying.

Um.

"I used to go to Interlochen for music. They have an archery range and all that."
justbeingbay: ([spec] at the easel)

[personal profile] justbeingbay 2013-01-24 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh, cool," Bay said, more animated about Interlochen than she'd been about archery. "I mean, I've never been, but I'm an artist and my brother's in a band. I love the whole artist's colony-type thing."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-01-24 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
"What medium do you work in mostly?" Kate asked, product of enough art shows to know the proper question here. "Interlochen was great. It's gorgeous there, and everyone's completely focused on their music."

Which would be why she didn't go back anymore.

"Oils and graffiti art," Bay said promptly. "And sketching 'cause that's not as" -- she made a vague hand gesture as she groped for a word, settled on -- "messy, so you can do it wherever. Did you sing or play an instrument?"

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-01-24 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
"Oils and graffiti art sound more exciting though. Are all the stone walls around here making you twitch?" Kate grinned. "Talking about stuff you can do anywhere - I play the cello. I have mine here, but it's not portable so much."
justbeingbay: ([pos] smiling with hair up)

[personal profile] justbeingbay 2013-01-24 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Bay grinned slyly. "I'm trying to pick the right place for my magnum opus. Maybe down by the docks."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-01-24 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
"Plausible deniability there too," she said. "Can't prove who it was when any random visitor could sail up and create a work of art."
justbeingbay: ([pos] smiling with hair up)

[personal profile] justbeingbay 2013-01-24 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
"I could go with a dock-related theme, too," Bay mused."A pirate ship loaded with gremlins or something."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-01-24 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
"Have you seen one of those yet?" Kate asked. "I keep hearing about them, but..." She frowned. "It'd be the best hazing since we're already believing everything else ever."
justbeingbay: ([neu] side-eyeing you)

[personal profile] justbeingbay 2013-01-24 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
"... no," Bay admitted. "And now I wonder if they're extinct or something. Like, they used be all over the place, but now there's nothing."

[identity profile] hawkeye-too.livejournal.com 2013-01-24 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
"It makes sense," Kate agreed. "Or they all left to go mine for diamonds."

She paused. "That's dwarves, isn't it."
justbeingbay: ([neu] talking)

[personal profile] justbeingbay 2013-01-24 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
"They're all related," Bay nodded. "Gremlins, dwarves, goblins, hobbits. It's all pretty much the same thing."

"Short creatures with overcompensation issues," she said. That probably described a lot of supervillains too actually.
