Alara had not planned on being home for nearly two weeks but her sister had asked her to come home and try to make her parents happy by going to an important academic function at their father’s university.

She had reluctantly agreed only this had given her mother the idea to try matchmaking instead and what was only supposed to be a week long visit home turned into two weeks since she had to try and fend off her mother’s attempts to get her to settle down with a ‘nice Xelayan husband’.

On the plus side it seemed her parents were talking to her again, even though it seemed they were ignoring her decision to go into the military and hoping she would turn around and go to university on Xelaya instead.

She had managed to get in ~~handwavily~~ late last night and had decided to get in a workout before her classes, it was good being able to destroy punching bag after punching bag being in Earth’s gravity again.

The last few days of not having her strength hadn’t been fun but yesterday her hand seemed to be back to normal and her strength had returned as well and hopefully it was back for good.

Alara had decided to wait a bit longer just in case but she decided after waiting a day that she was now ready to fully test out her strength and so far her hand seemed to be doing just fine and she was finding it nice to be able to work her way through quite a few punching bags as well.

Alara didn’t have class til tomorrow, so she was taking advantage of having the morning free to do an extended workout in the gym as a way to keep her mind off how cold it was and for a way to stay warm.

She really wasn’t a fan of snow.

As always she was getting quite into the punching bags and had already sent a couple flying to the ground this morning as she went through her workout.

Alexis had flown back from a photo shoot late last night, woken up late this afternoon, and decided that what she really needed today was Thai. So she placed an order for one thing, and when it showed up there were several bags worth of things.

"How!" she'd yelled at the delivery guy's retreating back. "How do you stay in business?"

He didn't hear her or didn't care, and now she was spreading out the food on the table for people to take. She was going to hoard her own container, though.

[What, the boys have one. Open!]

Alara had ~~handwavily~~ spent the last few days at home, even though she didn’t celebrate Thanksgiving it had still been a several months since she had last visited and since her relationship with Solana had been rather strained since Parents Weekend, she thought it might be nice to try and spend a few days with her family.

She shouldn’t have been surprised when the topic came to what Alara’s plans were for after high school, her father had encouraged her to start applying to the university … especially considering how different she was academically speaking compared to other applicants it would be a good thing to plan ahead. He could put in a good word and with his connections and she should be able to get in.

Alara then made the mistake of revealing that she didn’t want to go to the university after graduation and wanted to join the military. Needless to say that conversation didn’t go well and now her parents weren’t talking to her, not that they really talked to her to begin with but Solana had suggested that she might stay at Fandom for a while til they processed this.

So now Alara was taking her frustration out on several punching bags before her classes and destroying the punching bags was at least making her feel somewhat better about her trip back home to Xelaya.

Belle had, as promised, looked for books on time travel and on symbiotic abilities for Five. The latter was proving more difficult to track down but she had found an interesting treatise on spells to travel through time (which came with rather a lot of dire warnings about the terrible fates that befell unwary magic users who went in to such things unprepared). She'd hand it over to him eventually, after she was done reading it.

She'd brought the book with her into the common room but had set it aside for the moment in favor of the television which had apparently decided to show ~~cheesy Netflix~~ Christmas movies.

Time travel could wait. Or maybe it already had, since it was time travel. So Belle was going to enjoy her mug of tea and bowl of cereal and a very silly movie and then get back to reading.

[Open common room is open and I should be around most of the day!]

Alara had stayed her normal self this time and had heard on the radio that there seemed to be quite a few kids around so after going to the gym as normal, she decided to do something similar to last week and try making breakfast in case anyone was hungry and had trouble getting food.

She thought she’d stick with a typical Earth breakfast instead of Xelayan food because it was probably not to everyone’s taste, even though she did have to figure out how eggs were actually made because she actually didn’t have any experience making Earth food so it was a bit of a learning experience. She was relying a lot on Earth recipes that she found on her data padd.

Alara had been to the gym for her usual morning workout and now that she didn’t have that to focus on, decided to head to the common room.

Rather than order in she decided to try something a bit different and try her hand at cooking something, which admittedly it had been a while but she thought she’d see if she could try and make something from home.

So she decided to try her hand at making sweetened Gupsela, or at least as close a version to it since some of the ingredients could only be found on Xelaya but there was enough ingredients in the fridge and cupboards that she could make do and she was enjoying the process of making her planet’s version of comfort food, she put one batch in the fridge and she was making extra in case anyone else stopped by.

There was still an adorable, judgey, grumpy, growly, and occasionally teleporting cat with Belle this morning.

A cat who had just knocked a second teacup to the floor already while standing on the countertop and yowling.

"I don't know how to make coffee," she told him. "If that's even what you want. I'm sure it isn't good for cats and it tastes terrible besides." She remembered that quite well from the weekend she'd been unexpectedly young and Five had given her coffee.

The cat was unmoved by this argument and yowled again.

Belle shook her head, reaching for a box of cereal. "If you stop smashing things perhaps I'll find you breakfast as well though I'm sure you could just take yourself somewhere to find food if you wanted."

[Open common room is open! I've got a 2 hour car ride later today and entertainment is always welcome.]

Alara had woken up in an unfamiliar location but it didn’t take her long to figure that she should scout it out and see what resources she could find and hopefully be able to take some back with her. Even though this place didn’t seem to have any Kaylon’s she was still keeping an eye out in case she had to retreat at a moment’s notice.

[Alara’s is now an AU version of herself where she is part of the resistance against the Kaylon after they took over the galaxy in the Season 2 finale ‘The Road Not Taken’. Open!]

Alara had heard from her sister and had been told that their parents were pleased with her progress … which honestly surprised Alara that they’d bothered to give any indication that they were interested in how she was doing at school. There was no other message from her parents so it was back to being the one time a year she heard from them outside of her visits to Xelaya. She wondered if Solana had mentioned that she’d been on a date while she visited … she would have been interested to know her parents response to that.

She decided to distract herself from thinking about her sister and her parents so she ordered pizza and ended up with way more than she had ordered so she ended up in the common room with the extra pizza and was flipping through the TV to see if there was anything worth watching.

Alara was starting to think that something weird was happening around Fandom but she wasn’t sure what it was. She was still her normal self as far as she was aware but the radio report had seemed off lately. Her teacher yesterday had also been weird, she didn’t know if he just liked speaking in dramatic pauses all the time but it had definitely been an interesting experience. She would definitely be telling her sister when she called her on the weekend, especially considering how much Solana always liked to hear about the latest weird happenings at Fandom.

She had another early class that morning, so she was once again starting her normal gym training session a bit earlier than normal. She was getting better about using her strength against the bags so she had managed to not break any so far as she worked on completing her workout.

A part of Astrid was starting to wonder if, after last week, she was just sort of doing this for radio, but, at the same time, Astrid knew she was also still doing this because she was sometimes just a creature of habit and she honestly had nothing better to do. She was up, so she might as well just head upstairs, do a little bit of cooking, have a nice breakfast by herself if no one else showed up, and have a nice breakfast with her schoolmates if anyone did.

And it turned out that the fridge decided to provide a lot of eggs (not just eggs, this time, there were other things, but there were also a lot of eggs), so she figured that was a good sign for her to just sort of practice her skills with eggs in particular, trying to get the perfect sunny-side-up and the perfect over-easy, and getting quite a lot of scrambled eggs in the process.

So, hopefully, if anyone did join her that morning, they liked eggs.

[[ and it's breakfast! So it's totes open! ]]

You know, it'd been a while since the students had been roused from their beds to go stand outside in the middle of the night while the building around them screamed at them. Tonight was a good night to fix that.

So at exactly 3:00 am, the fire alarms in the dorms began going off, leaving you all to do just that.

You're safe now. You're welcome.

[Open! Go get your cranky on.]

Alara had been at Fandom for over a year now and she had only just discovered that there was a gym in the dorms. It looked like it hadn’t been used in a while but she found some punching bags that still looked like they were in good condition.

She had spent the morning talking to her sister and keeping her appraised of what had been in happening in Fandom, she had even asked if Solana had had any ideas of what could be happening since she thought asking an outside perspective might be useful but Solana hadn’t been able to come up with any theories but she would keep looking into it for her.

So for now Alara was focusing on the punching bags as both a way to keep herself occupied and to avoid going outside if she could help it. Luckily the punching bags were pretty sturdy and could mostly handle her strength, she had only destroyed one so far.

[the gym is open!]

The way Alexis was thinking, they'd have a raging party tonight, wake up tomorrow with mild hangovers, and then spend the rest of the day at the beach, because wasn't that what Memorial Day was all about?

She did not know she was expected to be in class tomorrow.

The lights were lower, there was a dance floor, the music was actually probably a little loud, and there were tables set up with all sorts of beverages. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. She also was maybe iffy on exactly what Memorial Day was commemorating, because aside from the distinct red, white and blue theme, it was very much a celebration of something or other.

[Open party! Feel free to have gotten a mass text invite or having seen the flyers or heard radio.]

Wayne was still mebbe a little bit sore about what felt a little like an attempt at a breakfast coupe to him, what with Nina going and making breakfast yesterday morning, but he s'posed she could have also just been doing what she thought was nice for the new students and didn't want them to have to wait until Monday to get a good meal in their stomachs, and so he supposed he'd just have to wait it out and see if she decided to go ahead and do it every Sunday, just like he did every Monday, and if that were the case, well, then...

She could have at least picked literally any other day of the week that wasn't the one right before his breakfast day, if that were the case.

But again, it was something he wouldn't be able to determine until next week, so there was no point in fussin' about it now, especially not when he had a traditional Monday morning breakfast to start putting together, all the usual trappings and fixing, from yer pancakes and eggs to your bacon and sausage, fruit for the grease-averse, juice, coffee, so on and so forth.

He figgured, what with some people needing to be up for classes and the particular aroma ventilating structure of the dorms itself, there should be at least a few people, if not the good ol' regulars, wandering in to see what's up and to get a little fuel.

It was, after all, the most important meal of the day.

Even if the Internet might tell you that was all just marketing, Nina.
