The strange thing about having so much free time was that you started even missing chores that you always hated in the first place. Which was the reason Beauty was in the stables, cleaning out Greatheart's stall -- a chore she didn't hate, but there weren't any stumps that needed pulling or wood that needed chopping. Even though technically there was no need, since whomever looked after the place made sure the horse was always well cared for and his living space always clean.

Beauty might have been also singing very softly under her breath as well, as she worked. Although that she'd deny if you mentioned it.

Escaping from her room -- and her dream -- this morning had sent Beauty on a beeline for the familiarity of the stables. She'd seen to Greatheart and sent him out into the paddock, stopped to share an apple with Trenor, and then found a sunny spot next to the building where she could sit and read. She'd kicked off her boots and was enjoying the feeling of the grass under her feet, despite the coolness of the weather, and kept one eye on the sky for threats of rain.

She was reading, and definitely not brooding over something she'd heard on the radio last night. Well, mostly reading, and mostly not brooding.

Beauty was almost to the stables when she felt the strangest sensation wash over her. And the world skewed in a frightening way, and she found herself stumbling over spindly legs that were certainly not her usual ones. She bolted the rest of the way to the building, leaving her books lying on the ground, and just as she reached Greatheart's stall, she was back to normal.

In a panic, she threw open the stall door and rushed inside, leaning against the bulk of the rather startled gray as she caught her breath.

"Oh God. What was that?"

Thursday was another of Beauty's free days, and having promised Greatheart some extra time this morning, she was down in the stables bright and early. After taking a few moments to greet Trenor with a pat on the nose and an apple, she'd set about grooming the big gray until his coat shone, and now she was paying special attention to his slightly shaggy mane.

And, of course, regaling him about the adventures of her movie watching with Andrew the previous night. Star Crossed Lovers had been followed up by one of the James Bund movies, and although Beauty did agree with Andrew's appreciation for the lead actor, she had this odd feeling that he'd have been better blond.

Andrew sat down on a sofa with a stack of books and a stack of movies. He also had some microwavable popcorn and a box of hot chocolate.

It was going to be a fun evening full of dead languages and classic cinema. While he waited for his friend, he opened up a book and started to read, laughing often. Sure it was in Latin, but it was still a hoot.

[ooc: Andrew is here for Beauty, but the common room is open like they tend to be!]

"Amō, amāre, amāvī, amātum. Vetō, vetāre, vetuī, vetitum. Iuvō, iuvāre, iūvī, iūtum...."

Beauty was currying Greatheart after their morning ride. She was also reciting her Latin grammar. This was something the big horse was used to, as he already probably knew more Greek than Beauty's old language tutor. Either he found the recitations calming, or he knew there'd be a bribe for him, in the form of an apple or three, at the end of it.

[ooc: Stables are open, post is open, especially if Beauty has already promised to introduce you to her horse. ETA: Also now posted in the correct place. Oops.]

Turtle was partially bored and Turtle had been sitting in her room, trying to think of even more ways to try to situate herself in a standing where she'd be a good, easy choice for her fellow sophomores to vote in to represent them in the student council. A small rumble from her stomach and a reminder of her sweet tooth had the perfect idea: food, of course! Sweet, to be specific! Cupcakes!

There was one problem. Turtle wasn't exactly much of a cook. Bad cupcakes could have bad results. She considered just going to J,GOB, getting some, and sharing them, but that didn't seem to reflect well on her tenacity. She thought a little harder.

Oh, sure, there were still J,GOB cupcakes there, yes, for those who wouldn't want to wait. But Turtle had also picked up a great many supplies for the opportunity for people to make their own cupcakes to their own tastes, the things scattered all around the kitchen and a ridiculous amount of pans and toppings and everything. Quite a nice spread. And, subtly, a seemingly unfinished "Vote for Turtle" sign placed on the counter, as if Turtle had merely just paused her work for the 'spontaneous' cupcake smörgåsbord.

Now, hopefully some people who could actually make them well would show up. Currently, though, Turtle was trying her hand at ultra-sugar-Pixi-Stix-Gumboreo Cupcakes.


[[ open! come! Make cupcakes! bonus points for exploding ones ]]

River looked up at the sky. Once it got dark enough the stars would be visible. She smiled. That would be decoration enough. The music was already playing and she tooka a few dance steps, then spun around, closing her eyes.

Still, to be a proper party there was a few other things needed, and River had made sure they were there. Buffy had let her borrow the CD-player they used for the cheerleader practice, and Isabel had brought a large collection of CDs. River herself had provided snacks, mainly the kind bought from a shop, and had mixed a non-alcoholic punch.

From somewhere a few bags of glitter had appeared, available for anyone who needed it. River frowned, then shrugged. She placed the chair she had promised Adah next to the stairs, hoping that she would brave the long climb up to the roof, and put a blanket on top of it.

[Up early because I'm in a timezone that makes me want to go to bed before everyone else. Everyone's invited to party and dance. Wait for OCDs! OCDs are up!]

After the picnic, Karal headed over to the stables, to spend some time with Trenor and make sure he was recovering from their very long trip. Given the way he was bouncing around the stable yard, it looked like he was doing just fine.

Karal leaned on the fence and shook his head. "You have far too much energy," he called, laughing as Trenor trotted over and demanded to be patted. Karal obliged. "But I'm glad you're doing well."

[ooc: for the only other person on the island who has a horse (though she may not be here just yet) and great slowplay, and also for anyone else.]
