3rd Floor Common Room, Thursday Night

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

Johnny didn't see what the big deal was with today. Oooh, people told the truth. So what? He liked telling the truth! He did it all the time! He was awesome. Reed was a douche. Gwen was cool. Alana was hot. He didn't have many male friends because he never truly felt deep down that he really belonged after spending his entire youth out of place. He had no idea how to commit to anything but superheroing. This pizza was delicious and there was plenty for everyone. This Kate Hudson movie was wonderful, she was such a good actress.

Kate Hudson was where he drew the line. "I really want this channel to change so I can save face if anyone comes in. I DON'T KNOW WHY THE CHANNEL WON'T CHANGE! I'd totally bang Kate Hudson."

Okay, maybe THAT was how he could save face if anyone came in.

[OOC: Open, of course. But I'm driving home now so no responses for the next hour.]

"No one is acting as if they have any sense," Hanna observed, nodding hello to Rapunzel. "But she is very pretty, and I suppose we feel intelligent by comparison to this script."

Said in a mild and resigned tone of someone who didn't really want to change the channel either.

"So we're supposed to feel smart because she's dumb, and jealous because she's pretty?" Rapunzel wondered. "Or just enjoy her prettiness? Because this movie is already making me think a lot more than I thought it was initially going to."

"I don't think I feel jealous." Hanna was not the best with emotions, but she was almost certain that wasn't what it was. "I like her hair. And her smile. But I also keep thinking of different things she could do to make the situation less dishonest. I haven't seen enough movies, is this typical?"

"From what I've seen, yeah," Rapunzel admitted, flopping into a chair and dragging her hair near to pool by her feet. "They're usually kind of filled with people doing dumb things to propel the plot along. No one acts like this in real life. No one I know, anyway, but I don't know that many people."

"I don't either," Hanna admitted. "This is the first school I have ever attended." She paused, then took a breath. "I have questions about your hair, but I wonder if they are too personal to ask, and if you must answer them too frequently."

There! Maybe you could avoid responding to that?

Okay, Rapunzel had to smile at that, relaxing a little. "You can ask them!" she assured her. "Here -- it's all really my hair, I have about seventy feet of it, yes it takes a long time to brush, and no it doesn't get that heavy, but it's probably 'cause I'm used to it." She tilted her head, leaning her chin in her hand. "Those are the answers to the ones I get most often, to get you started."

"Oh, good. That's a relief." And it did answer about the first five questions that came to Hanna's mind. "It doesn't trip you? Or become a danger?" That's the way her mind worked. "It's beautiful, but I would be worried about that. Because I am always looking for dangers anyway."

[likes-ducklings.livejournal.com]

"Sometimes it trips other people, and it's only dangerous if someone decides I'm worth kidnapping for it." STOP TALKING, RAPUNZEL. AGH. "I'm Rapunzel, by the way," she added, hurriedly, so she'd stop saying dumb things she shouldn't.

"Kidnapping?" Hanna frowned. "Has that happened before?... I'm Hanna. It's beautiful. I suppose you could make a great many wigs out of it. But. Kidnapping seems extreme?"

"Someone tried to steal my hair when I was a baby, but it turns brown and doesn't grow anymore," Rapunzel replied, shaking her head. "So I worry people'll take me if they want it."

But that seemed dangerous territory, and Rapunzel was eager for a topic change. "Are you new? Like, to here? I don't think I've seen you around before."

"That's terrible..." Hanna paused, then nodded. All her other questions seemed to skirt the edge of 'too much.' "I've been here 12 days now. It's been -- very different from what I expected. Since I didn't expect to be here, but the school did, for some reason."
