Room 312, Saturday evening
After about a three-hour shower (well, it felt like it, anyway) Dinah was finally de-chocolated, and feeling human and not like a Creature from the Chocolate Gloop any more. She had the door open, and music on, waiting for Priestly to stop by so they could talk, and Camille frolicking with a catnip mouse on her bed.
Probably a good time to do some research, since kissing various guys hadn't gotten her any closer to the identity of the Blue Beetle. Even if it had been a lot of fun. She might as well learn a little more about the object of her current crushing, even if she couldn't find him again. Her only clue was his appearance, and the name, so she typed "beetle" into Wikipedia, and scrolled through waaaay too much bug information (although, the scientific name meant 'shield-wing' which she thought was pretty cool) until she hit the name scarab beetle.
Scarab. Scarab? No. Way. Modeled upon the Scarabaeidae family dung beetle, the scarabthe ancient Egyption mythos, the sun (Ra) rolls across the sky each day and transforms bodies and souls.... Transformation. Shape-shifting suit. Which BB had said was alien technology. Which... Jaime also had a version of, in his head. Called Scarab. And she'd said she thought BB was cute and all that other stuff. "Oh for the love of... Blue Beetle, you are a dead man."
