Third Floor Common Room, Thursday Evening

Jan 12, 2012 17:13

So over the past two weeks on the island, Rebecca hadn't really done very much. Did some work for her classes, rearranged the furniture in her room and taken over part of Matt's closet... normal fun stuff. But she'd come to the conclusion that it was time to start networking with people. Forming alliances, as it were ( Read more... )

Butters burst brightly into the third floor common room. "H-hey, every--"

But he only got that far before he looked around a realized that this wasn't the common room he thought it was.

"Oh, hamburgers," he said instead. "It's happened again..."

"...I'm sorry?"

Ugh. Clueless freshman.

"Oh, it's just the common rooms gettin' all switched around on me again," said Butters with a heavy, put-upon sigh. "They do that every once in a while. I meant to get to the second floor one, but this is..." He took a moment, looking around, and then nodded, "third floor, right? It's gettin' so bad that I can recognize 'em all by sight now, you know? Definitely the third..."

And his nose was picking up on the scent of offerings. "Mmmm, and with food this time, too!"

"I'd recommend a map," Rebecca advised, and avoided side-eyeing him too obviously. "But you're welcome to have some food now that you're here!"

As long as he left some for cool people, dammit.

"Something smells good," Matt said as he entered the common room, pretending to use hiss cane to guide him.. It was only a half-second later that Matt realized that Rebecca was in the room. He did his best to hide his revulsion. "Is the food for everyone?" he asked hopefully.

zetabetabrat January 13 2012, 00:01:55 UTC

Wait, you mean Matt didn't think Rebecca was the best roommate ever? But why?

"Sure!" she chirped, maybe a bit more sweetly than she usually would have bothered being with him. Because there were other people around probably and she had to make a good impression on them, at least.

childhood_taunt January 13 2012, 00:11:41 UTC

"Oh! Rebecca!" Matt chirped back as he swung around with his cane, narrowly missing Rebecca's shins. "I didn't realize you were here. Is this your doing?"

Oh, and Rebecca can score so many points by helping the poor blind boy!

zetabetabrat January 13 2012, 00:15:18 UTC

"Yep!" Rebecca said with feigned enthusiasm, taking a less-than-thrilled step back from that totally deliberate swipe of Matt's cane. "Oh, no, be careful of that table!"

There was no table.

Claudia hadn't smelled anything that fabulous coming from her common room in, well, ever. She had been heading for the roof to mess around on her guitar again, but being a growing 17 year old, she couldn't resist the scent of tomato and basil.

"Wow. I'm not crashing a party here, am I?"

zetabetabrat January 13 2012, 00:32:25 UTC

"Nope!" Finally, someone who looked normal. "Have a seat! Would you like anything? There's a ton of food."

notmyownage January 13 2012, 00:47:06 UTC

Well, that was somewhat suspiciously enthusiastic.

"Uh, thanks." Hey, who was Claudia to turn down free food? She set her guitar aside, then offered her hand with a smile. "Claudia Donovan. Don't think we've met yet."

zetabetabrat January 13 2012, 00:51:42 UTC

"Rebecca Logan," Rebecca offered, shaking Claudia's hand. "I'm new here." But well-versed in the art of making an impression! "Junior. From DC and Ohio. you?"

Quinn was just going to get a drink, but if the common room was full of food, she'd take a little pasta primavera.

Or she would until she spotted Rebecca, anyhow. She turned toward Madamoiselle Cleavage with a plate in her hand and a bright smile on her face.

"Ruthie!" she said, obnoxiously brightly. "How are you settling in?"

zetabetabrat January 13 2012, 01:01:52 UTC

"Katie!" Rebecca chirped back in about the same tone of voice. "Things are going so well, actually. Can I get you anything?" She sized Quinn up, then winced and offered, "Maybe some salad?"

RUDE.

chief_cheerio January 13 2012, 01:10:54 UTC

Dammit, Quinn knew when she was being tweaked, but now she was going to have a voice in the back of her head calling her a cow all night.

"I think I'm fine with this," she managed to say, coolly, and even added a piece of garlic bread to her plate.

A small piece.

"But thanks! It's so nice when the new girls like waiting on people."

zetabetabrat January 13 2012, 01:12:48 UTC

"Just thought I owed you after the picnic," Rebecca said, offering the fakest smile ever. "You did such a great job bringing me tea and all!"

"That's a great deal of food," Dorothy remarked on her way into the common room. Her eyes wide as plates, it was like a feast at the emerald city... only with less fancy table settings.

"Is it some special event?" she asked in general, hoping someone would answer.

zetabetabrat January 13 2012, 01:14:01 UTC

"Nope," Rebecca said sweetly. "Just thought people might be hungry after a long week!" That... wasn't technically over. It was Thursday, Rebecca. "Can I get you anything?"

cant_be_helped January 13 2012, 01:17:07 UTC

"Well the week is hardly over," Dorothy said, looking over everything. "And if it's all the same, you don't have to get me anything. Is this really all to share?"

zetabetabrat January 13 2012, 01:18:49 UTC

"Absolutely," Rebecca confirmed. "Help yourself!"
