Third Floor Common Room; Monday Morning [09/21].

[howareyanow]

Probably not surprising anyone fer this week, considering the weekend, Wayne came into the common room that morning fer Monday Morning Breakfast to find the fridge was particularly well-stocked with sauerkraut and bratwurst, and, not one to let things like that just go to waste, added a frittata and some hash to the usual offerings and expected pancakes.

And he weren't going to even say nothing about it, either, because, as far as weird things to happen on a Monday morning, that barely even registered as one, so it seemed a bit...silly to go and make a fuss.

Like, it had been ages but there was still tradition to fall back on and so:

"Goooooooooood mooooooorniiiiiiiiiing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[howareyanow]

And don't let the surly squinting at the wall and the low grumble of a response leaking out of Wayne fool anyone. That was just as much a part of the tradition, if you got right down to it.

Especially since it was most certainly followed up with a brusque, "Nina! How are ya now?"

Yeah, yeah, yeah. He'd sort of missed that, don't go makin' a fuss about it or nothin', though.

[bookbeltof_love]

She beamed at him.

"I'm good and you?????????" she chirped, wandering over to look at breakfast. "Ooooooh, we're going German today?????????"

Elli came some time after the exuberant greeting of someone else had resounded throughout the dorms.

"Good morning," she said, just as cheerfully, but much, much quieter.

[howareyanow]

"Elli!" She got a nod of approval for her much more mild and tone-appropriate greeting that may have been offered by some certain people who shall remain nameless. "How are ya now?"

[snowdroplace]

"Happy Monday! I'm doing well, thank you," she said, with a smile. "And yourself?"

Having to choose between staying in bed and coming down for breakfast was a tough choice, but, after last week when the bed had won out, Troy felt it just wasn't the same getting to enjoy it as leftovers as when Wayne first made it. So he figured he could survive one morning of getting up early, considering he didn't really have to do it nearly as much now as he used to.

There was a mumbled sort of greeting that might have been a g'morning coming out of him before it was followed by an "Ooh, breakfast!" as if he was totally completely surprised to have found it there.

[howareyanow]

Which definitely got not just a squint out of Wayne, but a quirk of a brow, though, really, if he was honest, Troy didn't exactly seem like the brightest bulb in the box, now, did he? Still, he got the requisit nod, followed by the expected "Troy," and the proper, "How are ya now?"

[x_discospider_x]

"Hungry!" said Troy, because that would never not be a good answer, right?, as he rubbed his stomach a little before giving a sleepy stretch. "What've we got today, Wayne?"

[bookbeltof_love]

"Rise and shiiiiiiiiiiine, sleepyhead!!!!!!!!!!!" Nina said, relentlessly bright in the face of someone who wasn't quite awake yet.

Also: new. So she had to bother him.

[x_discospider_x]

Just...give him a moment, Nina, that was...that was...

"Woooow." Yup, that's exactly what it was, as Troy in all his still clinging to sleepiness, sort of blinked a lot and was pretty sure this girl's voice was still ringing in his ears after she'd finished talking. "You are..."

In fairness, he'd have probably struggled to land on a word even if he hadn't just rolled out of bed. But the one he came up with was kind of perfect, he felt.

"...up."

[snowdroplace]

"Good morning, Troy," Elli said, with a soft smile. "Did you stay up too late last night?"

[sparkinyou]

"Hey Troy," Miles said giving him a friendly wave. "How're you doing?"

[sparkinyou]

Miles was up and ready for his class this morning but slid into the common room first. He gave everyone a friendly wave before heading to the kitchen sink and cleaning up a few dishes from Wayne's efforts before grabbing a plate for himself.

[howareyanow]

And now Wayne was mostly just curious what would happen at such a blatant display of dishwashing now that Nina was apparently back and terribly distressed about discovering her complete and total indisposability.

Still, he was getting the proper greeting, all the same, like you do.

"Miles. How are ya now?"

[bookbeltof_love]

"But I called diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiibs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Nina wailed over-dramatically, mostly because, like, she didn't want to disappoint Wayne.

Though it would've been funny to just pretend she hadn't seen anything either.

Oh well.

[snowdroplace]

"Good morning, Miles," Elli said, with a smile for him.

She was pointedly staying out of the dishes thing.

[grayskollar]

Adora was awake and hungry. So it was such a shock she came in to the common room. Such a shock. "Morning!"

[howareyanow]

Truly, a startling and surprising turn of events.

Almost as startling and surprising as Wayne's greeting surely was.

"Adora! How are ya now?"

[sparkinyou]

"Hey roomie," Miles said giving her a nod. "How you holding up?"

[bookbeltof_love]

"Gooooooooooood mooooooooorning!!!!!!!!!!!!" Nina replied cheerfully.

[snowdroplace]

"Hello," she said, with a smile. "I hope it's a good morning for you!"

[thebeastofhouston]

Arabella needed food and coffee, and happily, she knew where she could find those things.

First, the coffee. God, please, coffee. "Morning," she mumbled.

[howareyanow]

Oh, there was always coffee, and good coffee, at that. Wayne made sure of it.

"Arabella!" he greeted with probably way too much brusqueness for that mumble. "How are ya now?"

[sparkinyou]

"Hi Arabella," Miles said with a wave. "How are you doing?"
