Dorm Roof, Friday Night

[cantgetnorelief]

Never mind that Anders only has classes on Mondays and Tuesdays, or that spring break isn't all that far away. He and Bridge have decided that school is stressful (yo), and that this definitely calls for a vacation. Of sorts

Bridge has a can of Coke that he's sipping through a bendy straw.

"This? Is so totally the best idea ever," he remarks, completely seriously.

[cantgetnorelief]

Anders stretches out and gets more comfy on his lawn chair, holding his own can of Coke as if it's some tropical drink in a coconut shell.

"Gotta love the beach in Barbados in the middle of summer," he agrees. "It's bright, it's warm, it's awesome."

[bridge_carson]

"Not a cloud in the sky," Bridge says, tilting his head up and glancing at the... well, the tarp. What? It's blue!

[cantgetnorelief]

"It's perfect," Anders says happily. "You can hear the sound of the waves on the sand and everything."

Karal's day had been absolutely surreal, so he made his way up to the roof in the hopes of clearing his head.

When he saw he wasn't the only one up there, he waved a greeting. "Good evening."

[cantgetnorelief]

Anders didn't move or make any sign that he'd noticed a newcomer.

"Dear fellow Fandom High student," he said in a calm, cheerful sort of monotone (as cheerful as a monotone could get), "it's nice to hear from you while I'm on vacation. I hope it's a nice evening back on the island. Here in Barbados it's warm and sunny and I'm having a fantastic time relaxing on the beach. Wish you were here! From Anders."

[vkandis_son]

Karal stared. "Ummm..." He started looking around for evidence of gremlins. "Are you quite well?"

[cantgetnorelief]

From behind the sunglasses it wasn't too obvious that Anders was actually squinting into the darkness to get a better look at who was talking to him, but now he recognized the boy from Bart's memorial service.

"Dear Karal," he said in the same cheery monotone, "I'm doing great. Vacation is really relaxing, did you know that? I'll bring you a seashell from the beach when I get back! From, Anders."

Hoshi had pretty much locked herself in her room all week, with the exception of classes, and really needed some fresh air. That's what brought her up to the roof.

She couldn't help noticing the setup that the guys had. "Did you get locked out of your room?" she asked, looking at the sleeping bags.

[bridge_carson]

"Dear Hoshi," Bridge begins. "I've only almost lost my hotel keys *once* since Anders and I arrived in sunny Barbados. I have yet to do something as silly as lock myself out of the room. Wish you were here, Bridge."

[itsjustlanguage]

Hoshi blinked a few times, wondering if she should have come out of her room just a little bit more often. "Was there a gremlin?" she asked, looking around nervously.

[bridge_carson]

"Dear Hoshi: You know what's awesome about Barbados? Since I'm only writing to you and not actually having a conversation, I can't pause and allow you to answer that question right now, so I'll just tell you: no gremlins. Complete lack of the little guys. I'd say I miss 'em, but that'd be a lie. See you soon! Bridge."

Z was up on the roof for emo purposes. And 'worrying about Sky' purposes.

Damn, it was cold.

[cantgetnorelief]

Anders didn't appear to notice her, or at least recognize her as Z. "Hello, passing seagull!"

[multiplez]

"Dude, did you get bit by a gremlin?" Z asked. "Because I've heard stories about that."

[cantgetnorelief]

"Dear Z," Anders intoned. "As I write this from my comfy beach chair in sunny Barbados, I thought you'd like to know that there are no gremlins here. Just lots of sand, surf, and all the mai tais I can drink. Want me to bring you back a seahorse? From, Anders."

[cantgetnorelief]

"Wow," Anders called, pointing somewhere just to Adam's left. "Parasailers!"

[cantgetnorelief]

"That looks cool," Anders said, apparently talking to Bridge as his outstretched arm pointed directly at Adam now. "We should try that sometime."
