Construction Site: Thursday, 5/31, All Day

[needsaparrot]

The site is still busy with NPC guys in hardhats and toolbelts running the heavy machinery, but an area's been set aside for the graduate workers to sort and stack some of the new loads of brick that have just been delivered. Hats, belts, eyewear and tools are provided as usual, as well as work-gloves in such fashionable color choices as orange, orange, or orange.

Workers and visitors might notice Xander eyeing the pink hardhat that might or might not have Conner's name on it now, but he isn't going to say anything. Considering Xander is now wearing the Galaxy Quest hat, who's he to judge?

"Gremlins," she lied-lied-lied. "Little buggers stole them and dumped them in the fire to see if the creamy center would make them explode."

She was, of course, speaking to the guy who'd helped perpetuate the idea that twinkie-wrappers kept gremlins away, and also the guy who spent his entire senior year here consuming mostly twinkies while never getting bit by a gremlin.

"Uh-huh."

"It's true! I swear!"

Just look at that innocent expression!

Re: Talk to Xander

[needsaparrot]

"Mm-hmm. And did they?"

Re: Talk to Xander

"Did they what?" Mel said, again with the innocent expression.

Oh! Look! Is that halo over her head or a trick of the sunlight!

"Explode."

"Nope," Mel said. "However the campfire is a big gooey mess."

"Somehow I sense that there is more to this story that you're not telling me. Call it a hunch."

"You're right. Some circus peanuts also were victims in the Gremlin pillage."

Re: Talk to Xander

[needsaparrot]

"The horror - the horror!"

Re: Talk to Xander

[cantjossme.livejournal.com]

"It's... It's too hard to talk of anymore."

Re: Talk to Xander

[needsaparrot]

"I'm not giving you circus peanuts. My phone doesn't make those."

"Does that mean I'm getting a Twinkie?"

Re: Talk to Xander

[needsaparrot]

"No." Xander illustrated this by handing her a Twinkie.

"Best. Watcher. Ever."

"Somewhere Giles is banging his head against a wall. Maybe several of him."

"Bet he didn't hand out Twinkies," Mel pointed out. "That's a sure way to get in with the girls."

Re: Talk to Xander

[needsaparrot]

"He's more of a scones kind of guy."

Re: Talk to Xander

[cantjossme.livejournal.com]

"See there's his problem. Automatically takes him out of the running."

Re: Talk to Xander

[needsaparrot]

"Well, he does like jelly doughnuts too."
