Third Floor Common Room, Thursday Evening

[dollpocalypse]

It was possible that the TV thought it was funny. It was also possible that the TV didn't think at all, which was, in Topher's opinion, the more likely option.

In either case, tonight all it seemed willing to show was the critically-reviled horror trilogy My GF's A Zombie. The first movie was pretty much exactly what it sounded like, but its sequels, My Psycho Ex Is A Zombie and Is Zombie Marriage Even Legal? were... well, also exactly what they sounded like.

The first movie was playing while Topher got up to get some popcorn, providing the microwave noises with a lovely soundtrack consisting of the titular zombie girlfriend pleading with her boyfriend to take her to prom. Topher just... didn't even know.

He'd actually made no effort to turn it off or change the channel, but whether that was because he was too used to the TV not cooperating or because he actually enjoyed the movie was anybody's guess, really.

Kate chuckled. "Too cold for you, California boy? And I get all the rets, but why are you having coffee with olives?"

Her mom & her usually had hot chocolate with brownies, but she was so not thinking about that.

"Winter on the East Coast is evil," Victor told her seriously. "I'm kind of used to it by now, but my mom's not. And Olive is my girlfriend. Cute, senior, red hair..." He shrugged. "Figured this was her one chance to meet my parent."

Oh! The one who didn't like the cooking channel guy. Good taste, Victor.

She twisted her lips a little, unable not to be amused. "So, you know, no pressure or anything there."

"My mom will like her," Victor insisted, though his expression showed his doubts. "I mean, I like her, and my mom is amazing, so they'll like each other -- right?"

He was going to need to keep telling himself that, or else he'd fall into ohgodwhydidIthinkthiswasagoodidea.

"She's your mom. She just wants to make sure you're happy and okay, right?" Kate reassured him. "She'll see you're happy and think Olive's awesome because of it."

...not that Kate had ever introduced any of her guys to her sister or anything. But the theory was good!
