fandomhighdorms | Third Floor Common Room; Monday Morning [10/07].

The amount of grumbling that had gone on that morning when Wayne woke up was substantial. It'd been a while, after all, since the island went and had to make things a bit...different, and it had been nice, and Wayne would have been perfectly happy to just keep staying that course, but nope. He had to go and wake up that morning as a girl, which in and of itself wasn't a bad thing, realleh, it was just the principle of the thing, it was just impolite to go changing people like that, but fuck if the island cared at all, making people into birds or crabs or girls just whenever the fuck it felt like it.

But, well, it was Monday an' all, so....pitter-patter. He wasn't about to let something like this interfere with tradition, and even though he wasn't even sure if Nina was back yet, he couldn't risk letting all his grumbling about it lead to her beating him to the common room again. His clothes were going to fit a bit looser than before, but they still fit, that was the important thing.

He had been thinking out something to mix it up with breakfast that morning, just because, but ultimately decided that things were mixed up enough already, might as well stick with the basics, unless the island decided to go change that all up, too.

[[ open breakfast is open! and, yes, my main concern here was the plaid ]]

"Sure, thanks," she said, and paused, because every question she had in her head was about the thing he was trying not to think about.

She was trying to come up with something else, she really was.

Wayne nodded, grunting an assent, which was a bit unnecessary, what with the nod and the going to fill up a plate for Sabine, but he just felt the need to grunt a bit, even if he felt it just didn't have the same oomph as it normally would have. And he filled the plate up a little extra, as if making some sort of unspoken boon toward Sabine as an agreement to just Not Talk About It.

"Way ya go," he said, handing the plate over. Nodding again.

Grunting again.

Nope. Still not quite right, but he tried.

Sabine took the plate with a nod of thanks, and went with, "How was your weekend?"

"Oh, not so bad," said Wayne. "A bit...uneventful, but 'round here, gotta take those when you can, fuck. How 'bout yours, Sabine? Anythin' interesting going on with you?"

Because there was nothing interesting going on with Wayne. Nope. Not at all, not one bit, just flippin' pancakes on a Monday morning like any other, yup.

"Everything was pretty quiet after the Jello rain," she said. "Not much interesting to report."

"Oh, now, that jello rain was sure something, wasn't it?" Wayne offered, almost cheerful as he found something other than today's current weirdness to talk about. "You ever see anything like that before in yer life? I sure as fuck haven't. Jello rain! That'd probably mess with the crops back home a bit, more'n likeleh."

"We get the occasional weird rain around here, but that was just gross," Sabine sighed. "I don't even want to know what it did to all the drains around here."

"I assume it would just dissolve, as I'm sure jello's likeleh to do," said Wayne, frowning now and squinting his pretty new face. "Though I s'pose it might not hurt to go around, pouring some hot water in 'em just to make sure, help the process along a bit..."

Well, if he needed one, he now had a project to go and help him forget about the fact that he was a lady at the moment.

"That.,, is a thing you could do, yes," Sabine agreed. "It'd probably take a while."

"Well," Wayne chirped on with steadfast determination, "anything worth doing likeleh will! I'm not one to shy away from something just because it'll take a hot minute or two."

Especially when his other option involved a lot of thinking about his current state.

"Well, then I'm glad I could... help?"

She really wasn't sure.
