3rd Floor Common Room, Saturday Morning

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

With Yancy visiting, Raleigh found himself thinking maybe he should be treating his big brother to breakfast. And, since he wasn't exactly culinary talented, this amounted to digging out boxes of cereal and pop-tarts.

Hey, if it worked, it worked.

He rubbed at his eyes, clearing away sleep as he waited for his own pop-tart to pop. Yancy could get his own when he woke up. Raleigh was an amazing little brother, see?

[[Open like a common room!]]

"Morning," Theo said when he wandered into the common room. Dr. Brockton was safely tucked away in his hotel and Theo had managed to not have to spill his guts just yet. "My kind of breakfast."

He'd lived of Hot Pockets so of course he liked Pop Tarts.

"Mornin'," Raleigh replied with a yawn. "It's fancy by my standards."

Of skipping breakfast because he overslept.

[theoplustwo.livejournal.com]

"It's only fancy if you picked the right flavor," Theo decided, sitting himself down on one of the sofas. "What kind do you have anyway? Strawberry? Cherry? Chocolate chip?"

He knew them all.

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

"Strawberry," Raleigh replied. "With frosting."

Be in awe, Theo.

[theoplustwo.livejournal.com]

"Then, it's definitely fancy," Theo said approvingly. "All you need is a candle and flower in a vase and it'd be like a gourmet restaurant in here."

He was definitely in awe.

"Pretty sure a candle would get us in trouble." Raleigh clearly didn't realize how crazy the school's administration was.

[theoplustwo.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Theo had to give Raleigh a look for that.

"Have you seen anyone get in trouble at this school?" Because he hadn't.

"No one has set the dorm on fire yet," Raleigh pointed out. With all his faith in their ability to keep a candle upright.

[theoplustwo.livejournal.com]

"What are you planning on doing with this candle that it might set the dorm on fire?" Theo asked, amused. "Douse it with gasoline?"

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

"Why would I have that in the dorms?" His roommate on the other hand...

[theoplustwo.livejournal.com]

"I'm pretty sure people have stranger things in their rooms than gasoline."

Theo shrugged. Ange started listing off the variety of things she'd seen in various rooms in her experience. Dev just wanted to eat.

"Maybe you're a mechanic or something."

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

"I'm not." Lucky for him, the pop-tart popped for eating now. "But maybe someone else is and they spilled gasoline all over the place."

'Spilled'. Yeah.

[theoplustwo.livejournal.com]

"And then a pyromaniac comes by and tosses a match on it?" Theo finished, raising an eyebrow and really hoping Raleigh didn't think that'd happen.

Yancy staggered into the common room about half an hour late, rubbing at his eyes and blinking against the light. "Ugh," he muttered, running a hand through his hair.

He unceremoniously dropped his ass down on the couch next to Raleigh.

"Ugh," he repeated.

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

Raleigh did the mature thing and tossed a corner of his pop-tart at Yancy's head. Because c'mon. One of them was slightly more of a morning person than the other.

Just slightly.

It helped to be able to mess with his brother.

[rhymeswithfancy.livejournal.com]

Yancy gave him an annoyed look as it bang right off of his head.

He responded the only way he could - by reaching over to violently ruffle Raleigh's hair. And maybe shove his head against the couch.

Softly. With brotherly love.

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

"Asshole!" Because no parents were around to tell them not to swear. Raleigh was smirking, though, as he shoved back at his brother.

Who missed the play fighting? Not him! No siree.

[rhymeswithfancy.livejournal.com]

Yancy shoved him back. "Dickhead," he returned. Fondly.

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

"Cereal's on the counter," Raleigh said, shoving the rest of his pop-tart into his mouth before it could get stolen.

[rhymeswithfancy.livejournal.com]

"Ugh," Yancy told him, but he got his ass back up off the couch. "Coffee?"

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

"You're the one who knows how to make it," Raleigh called after him.

[rhymeswithfancy.livejournal.com]

"You're a child," Yancy yelled back, but he was heading for the coffee machine now.

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

Raleigh showed his maturity by flipped him off as he turned on morning television. Cartoons and infomercials.

"Bring me a bowl."

[rhymeswithfancy.livejournal.com]

"Go get one yourself," Yancy retorted, poking around the coffee machine to try and get it to work.

[notajaegerbomb.livejournal.com]

"C'mon, Yance. Your arms aren't broken."

YET.
