Third Floor Common Room - Thursday Late Morning

[iftheseshadows]

Neil had been spending much of the break week holed up learning one of Shakespeare's comedic monologues. Now, having knocked his desk lamp off the desk for about the fifth time in so many hours, he'd decided to take it out into the common room, where he had a bit more room to bounce on the furniture as he ran the lines

Chad who was just about to make a post of this exact time and place lol was really making an honest attempt at that whole getting up early thing. He had to. Which explained why he was shuffling like the dead into the common room, groping around for the coffee maker.

He grunted a greeting to Neil, too, but wasn't quite awake enough to even tell what Neil was saying.

Neil grinned goodnaturedly over at the non morning person on his search for the elixer of non morning people everywhere.

He considered speaking in Bardspearian tongue but quickly reminded himself that Chad was a heck of a lot bigger than he was and that it was not nice to tease half awake individuals.

"Morning, Chad! Would you mayhap like some bacon and toast?"

...

Okay, a little bit of 'speak' snuck in there.

Precious coffee maker found, Chad clumsily got some of it brewing. The smell alone of the promised elixir was enough to improve his answer to Neil from an indistinguishable grunt to something that sounded astonishingly like a very rough 'yes, please.'

Adding some more bacon to the skillet Neil got it started to fry and then reached to add some multi-grain bread to the toaster.

Yes, this was his attempt to balance the harm of the bacon with the good of the toast.

"Did you have fun last night down at the beach?" He asked as he worked, figuring that sticking to 'yes or no' questions would be a good thing till Chad actually got the coffee into his system.
