Third floor common room [Wednesday afternoon]

[weldedtomyspine]

Once he'd encountered a few people and figured out what was going on, Jaime had almost locked himself in his room. Not because he wasn't used to weird stuff, but because he wasn't used to being more off-balance than the Scarab. Usually he was calm and collected and the Scarab flipped out an told him to blow things up

"Roomie! You're cooking," Didi said as she wandered in. "Favorite person."

If the nickname hadn't let Jaime know who she was, the dark hair, black shirt, and ankh should have helped.

[weldedtomyspine]

Jaime managed, barely not to double-take. "You too, huh?" he asked with a snort. "Just when I was starting to get used to rooming with a girl, too."

He waved at the skillet he was currently watching. "You want some?"

"People say it wears off," Didi told him. "So don't get too used to this. Thank God."

She liked being a girl, okay?

She padded over to stand next to him. "Sure. What is it?"

[weldedtomyspine]

"All I know is that I'm glad nothing happened to me," Jaime grinned cheekily. And, that was good news. He liked her being a girl, too!

"Well, I was going to make fajitas, but then I realized I wanted some mole sauce, so..." he shrugged helplessly. "Beef and onions and peppers and mole sauce, I guess."

Ellie was on he way back to her room after class to hide for the rest of the day. She made a detour to the common room that wasn't even on her floor instead when she caught the scent of something cooking. "Smells good in here."

[weldedtomyspine]

"That's because food is always a good idea."

Jaime paused, head cocked as if listening to something else and frowning with concentration. "Ellie?"

[awesomebigsis]

"Yeah, hi," Ellie replied, waving slightly. "Have you adjusted to all this weirdness, yet?"

If there was ever a time to ask that, she felt this was that day.

[weldedtomyspine]

"Well, I haven't run screaming quite yet. Though I think I might be close to it..."

He looked over at him... her... whatever. "What about you? I suspect you've got more weirdness experience than I do."

Jennifer, being one of the only girls that didn't transform this day, wandered into the common room.

"Whatever that is, I like the smell."

[awesomebigsis]

"You're still a girl," Ellie said, stating the obvious. She gave a little wave.

[not_jaded_yet]

"Am I not supposed to be?" Jennifer said, confused. But hey, cute boy. She returned the wave.

[awesomebigsis]

"Guess you haven't noticed the unusual amount of boys wandering around today, huh?" Ellie asked, somewhat amused.

[azuldragon]

Someone was cooking. Good. She was hungry again. Honestly why are boys always so hungry?

"Is there any chance you're cooking something really hot?"

[weldedtomyspine]

"Depends on how hot is 'really hot'," Jaime said, glancing over. "But probably not. Just regular mole sauce." And a scattering of crushed chilis 'really hot' did not make.

[azuldragon]

Azula agreed, "You should add more chili, that's an inadequate amount."

[weldedtomyspine]

"Not for most people," Jaime countered. "Though if you want I can just give you a canister of crushed chilis."
