Second floor common room- Monday evening

[seriesofbaddecisions]

Sabine had just wanted dinner, and she couldn't find the leftovers she'd stashed in the fridge. Maybe someone else didn't know what the starbird symbol on her stuff meant, or maybe a gremlin stole it, or maybe someone just pushed it waaaay back there somewhere.

Anyway, this had led to a search of the fridge, and the freezer since she might as well, and at this point it was something of an excavation.

She had a trash bag and was tossing the things that looked just so expired, unrecognizable, or downright evil. At one point she pulled out a container and studied the label, asking, "Who's Rory Gilmore?"


[That's right, it's a second CR in one day like it's 2010 or something. Following up on a post I apparently promised to make in 2014. Open!]

"Is she new?" Sabine asked, frowning. "Please tell me she's new."

Otherwise she was worried.

[bookbeltof_love]

"Oh my gosh, no way!!!!!!!!!!!!! She's Bus Dean's wife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

A beat.

"Whhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy????????????????????"

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"How?"

Anyway that was getting tossed so fast, and Sabine was really debating if she should wrap this trash bag up, burn it, and start over.

[bookbeltof_love]

"Ohmygosh," Nina said, watching Sabine toss that thing. "Was that--ohmygosh."

She couldn't even muster exclamation marks because if that was what she thought it was, then it was horrifying.

"I don't know. I don't know," Sabine said, tying the bag up. "How long was that here?"

She worked with dangerous chemicals all the time and this honestly worried her more.

[bookbeltof_love]

"Ages and ages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" That was not reassuring. "Rory was, like, a junior when Bus Dean was a senior here??????????????????? Way, way back when they were students!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Which... yeah...

"Do you think, like, burning it would be a good idea??????????????"

Because those were... really, really old leftovers.

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"No. But we might have to burn the rest of the food. And then call in someone to clean this thing right."

Like the Ghostbusters, or an exorcist.

[bookbeltof_love]

"There's a priest in town!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Because priests were super good at cleaning this sort of thing, right?

"Or maybe we can just, like, switch our fridge.............. there's one on the sixth floor that doesn't get used often??????????????"

[seriesofbaddecisions]

Sabine didn't want to consider it.

But she found herself considering it.

"That's where the parties tend to happen when no one planned them," she said slowly. Did that stuff come from a fridge? Who knew. Who even knew.

[bookbeltof_love]

Definitely not Nina!

"So maybe it's, like, a sentient fridge," Nina mused, "and it'd love being down where people pay more attention to it?????????????????????? Like, maybe it's only throwing parties to get attention?????????????"

Which, hey, Nina could relate.

[seriesofbaddecisions]

Sabine sighed, and looked at the fridge.

"Do we know anyone with super strength?"

[bookbeltof_love]

"I can move a couple hundred pounds?????????????" Nina said, after a moment of thinking. Because Nina was a lot stronger than she looked.

She had to be, to hit like a truck.

"And, like, Sidon's really strong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He'd totally be willing to help if we asked?????????????????????????"

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"We might need a prince for this one," Sabine said, eyeing the fridge, and then getting out her phone to look up the weight of a fridge. "Three hundred pounds?"

What was tonight, seriously.

[bookbeltof_love]

"Yeaaaaaaaaaaah, that's a bit beyond what I can carry," Nina said, wandering over to look over Sabine's shoulder. "Like, maybe if it was on a trolley or something???????????? But even then.............. asking Sidon would be, like, way simpler??????????????????"

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"And faster. I think we need this thing gone."

And disinfected.

[bookbeltof_love]

"I'll give him a call!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Nina said, fishing out her phone. "Hang on!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Please hold, Sabine.

"There!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She beamed. "If he's free, then I know he'll show up!!!!!!!!!!!! If not, well, there's always fire....................."

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"I'm trying not to burn things today. I don't know what kind of fumes Rory Gilmore's abandoned lunch is going to give off."

And her masks were back on the Ghost.

[bookbeltof_love]

Nina heaved a dramatic sigh.

"You're no fun," she complained, with a smile. "Honestly, Sabine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"I know, I know, I'm terrible for worrying about my friends' lungs, and also the local ecosystem," Sabine teased.
