Third Floor Common Room; Monday Morning [09/14].

[howareyanow]

There was a whole new step that had been developed, recently, in Wayne's process for gettin' up and makin' breakfast to start the day. It started with him actually waking up, gettin' ready (a process that didn't take too long at all), checking radio, checking his hawkey fights, and then heading to the common room, and (this was the new part) doing a swift but thorough look around the place to check fer anything...funny. Because if there was anything funny, he wanted to make sure he got wind of it before getting into his cooking, even if the funny didn't even directly relate to the cooking itself.

Like today, there was definitely a gremlin hanging out over behind the TV, which was generally good to know, because if he hadn't done that sweep, then he could have come right out and surprised someone at an inopportune moment, and now he could at least give people the warning.

Other'n that, though, everything seemed normal, the food was all as it should be, the equipment was all right...Well, it seemed all the usual plates had been replaced with small plastic kiddy plates with cartoon characters and dividers in 'em, but if that and the gremlin were the worst of what he was getting today, Wayne wasn't going to complain!

...not too much, anywhey!

Well, if they were going to be chewing on something, Wayne would much rather it be pancakes over people!

"Hard no!" said Wayne, with a firm look at the gremlin to let it know he didn't care.of that hurt its feelings. Then his attention shifted back to Shuri. "I think he just showed il to look menacing and remind us that he's here, as he's wont to do. On occasion."

At least, he just sort of assumed that this was same gremlin he'd seen in the common room before. But, determined to ignore it, he got to the important stuff.

"Fix you up a plate?"

"Yes, please," Shuri said. "Extra bacon, if you have any, please."

[howareyanow]

"Extra bacon!" Wayne confirmed, and was not right-handed about it, either, considering how he felt bad enough about things going a bit...funny on Saturday that he'd vo ffy up every last piece of bacon, Canadian or otherwise, on this island and probably most of Baltimore, too, if that was what it took. "That's a Texas-sized 10-4!

"What's the occasion?" he asked, as he handed Shuri her very, very baconated breakfast.

"Three classes back to back," Shuri said, "so I need all the brain fuel."

[howareyanow]

"That's right!" said Wayne, remembering now. "You've got science, then weapons, then...superheroing, right? What to do you think'll be on the books this week fer science?"

That bein' the one of the three they had in common, at least.

"Well, we've already been dinosaurs," Shuri said, laughing. "I don't know--underwater?"

[howareyanow]

Wayne considered that a little before nodding in a sort of agreement. "Underwater could be good," he said. "I could go with some underwater. I think..." He squinted thoughtfully, as if the words weren't quite formed yet, but they were getting there, "...I'd eventually like something..." The squint squinted harder, "...with plants."

Because of course he would.

Shuri smiled softly. "Of course. What kind of plants? Not ones that would eat us," she added immediately.
