Room 419 - Wednesday Late Morning - Afternoon

[guardianborn]

Rose scowled at the pile of clothes still on her bed. They were cute things - tops and skirts and tighter jeans that had been fun to wear around Fandom but didn't have a place back in Montana. Nearly everything she'd packed had been completely utilitarian. The stuff that she could wear for training for years in the cold or wet and not wear out

Her phone rang with a call from London.

No, Jack wasn't hoping she'd ship him some clothes. Even if they'd probably fit him.

[guardianborn]

Nah, he'd need a little something more around the chest for them to really fit him.

Rose grabbed the phone distractedly but managed to check called ID before she answered. "Jack! Everything okay over there? Too much rain?"

[bitten_notshy]

"Almost, but I've only been drenched three times today so it's almost a day at the beach," Jack answered. (Somehow, his voice was dry.) "I'm fine. Helping Sebastien a lot. I just figured I'd try to catch you before you had to join the real world. How are you?"

[guardianborn]

"Only three? That's gotta be a record," she teased back, missing that dry voice. "You have good timing. I'm heading out this evening."

Nope, not answering that 'how are you' question.

Alex was wearing the sling again only so people wouldn't nag the hell out of him. His shoulder was healing but he wouldn't be bowling for awhile.

He showed up in Rose's door, looking calm about things, at least.

"Sorry, I won't be taking any of your clothes."

[guardianborn]

Rose sighed, glancing over at him. "But they'd look so cute on you. You sure?"

[fratboybitch]

"Positive," Alex said, shaking his head. "This is it for you, huh?"

[guardianborn]

"Pretty much," she agreed. "Gotta admit. I'm surprised it lasted this long."

Kennedy stood in the doorway for a moment, surveying the proceedings with a certain amount of distaste. "Just so you know, I was trying to call people to get them to put off this whole making-people-leave thing? But I don't think it worked."

[guardianborn]

"Were you calling the right people?" Rose checked. "Because someone's got to be able to do it, right?"

[brat_inslayage]

"Either that or I'm losing my touch," Kennedy decided. "Let me just go on the record as saying this part blows."

[guardianborn]

"Heard and agreed with," she replied. "Whoever came up with the whole 'leaving' idea should be shot."

"You know, the island's going to be stinking a whole lot less once you're gone," Jake remarked, leaning his back against the doorframe.

[guardianborn]

"Me and Dimitri are going," Rose pointed out, with a smirk. "You'll be able to breathe freely."

[need_no_moon]

"Yeah, I wish," he sighed. "There's a whole bunch of other stinkers around, but at least it'll help."

[guardianborn]

"Good to know someone's happy about us going," she snarked. "Should've known I could count on you."

[findingelena]

"So ... this sucks," Elena said, leaning against the doorway. She was bad at the mushy stuff. Rose had to know that by now.

[guardianborn]

Rose pointed her towards the clothes on the bed. "Make the best of it with some clothes? Most from your previous place of employment?" Pixie Dust. Not the Turks. "You can take stuff home with you, right?"

[findingelena]

"Yeah, I can take plenty," Elena said. She walked over to the pile of clothes as if it was radioactive, and sifted through. "I wish I could take more."

Rose would be on that list, dammit. She could be locked in a trunk. She'd make an excellent Turk.

[guardianborn]

She wouldn't really enjoy being locked in a trunk though... But the Turk part could be fun.

"You and me both. When are you leaving?" Rose asked, sitting on the edge of the bed.
