Rory wandered in earlier than usual in spite of what time this post is actually going up, and curled up at the desk with a notebook full of handwritten, highlighted notes as well as her laptop.

"See, they supposedly come here to experiment on people they find in the midwest and mess up their crops."

"Their... crops?" she asks. "I don't know, maybe if they were on some sort of mission to keep other species from being able to find food sources here, but that doesn't make sense."

"They make designs in corn fields," Rory says solemnly. "I want to see you and Isabel do this now."

"I think I have better things to do with my time," Aeryn says slowly.

"It could be fun and pointless and I suspect it's a drunken sort of thing to do," Rory admits.

"I've seen Isabel drunk. She hugs. I don't think this is going to happen," she says.

"What if I gave you both sugar highs?"

Re: Period 4 [02/09]

Aeryn frowns and says, "I've never had one."

Rory looks shocked. "This will be amended."

"Um, I'm not sure that's really necessary," she says quickly.

"It's one of those things where you have to have at least one!" she insists.

"Why?"

Re: Period 4 [02/09]

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Because it's fun."

"What exactly is it?" She's heard of it, but never even witnessed it. No, not even with John.

"When you have too much sugar and you're really, really hyper," she explains.

"I'm not sure I need that."

"It's fun," she repeats. "Like coffee but more manic."

Re: Period 4 [02/09]

"Coffee's never had that sort of effect on me," Aeryn says. "It's good for a start, but I don't think I've ever been hyper."

"I have an immunity," Rory says.

Re: Period 4 [02/09]

[can_be_more]

"You can have an immunity to it?"

Re: Period 4 [02/09]

"I built one up," she says.

"On purpose?"

Re: Period 4 [02/09]

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"No, it's just what happens after drinking it for the last thirteen years or so."

Re: Period 4 [02/09]

[can_be_more]

Aeryn kind of stares at her. "You've been drinking stimulant for thirteen years?"

Rory nods like there's nothing wrong with that.
