"Is she the one who was on the radio making up lies about everyone last week?" Sam asked.

"You know 'female, on radio, and saying untrue things' doesn't narrow it down by a whole bunch," Peter teased. "But yeah, she does Wednesdays."

"Okay, good point," Sam said, laughing. "Does she not like geeks? It's sad how often our kind is slighted."

"I hate to break it to you, Sam," Peter said, "but no one does. I'm really your friend in spite of it."

Sam couldn't help the urge to give Peter his puppy eyes. "But I'm a good geek. My research knowledge is helpful and everything."

"Awwww, here." Peter broke off a piece of donut and tossed it at Sam, much as one might toss a biscuit at a puppy.

Not wanting to waste a perfectly good piece of donut, Sam grabbed it and took a bite. "Okay, maybe you really are going to get me addicted to sugar."

"My evil scheme is working, excellent." Peter rubbed his hands together in a diabolical manner. He then gave that up for snagging a piece of donut for himself. "Got anything planned for the holiday?"

If Peter had mixed feelings about the subject of what holiday was coming up... well Sam might be one of the few to notice the signs.

Sam had plans with Dawn, of course, but he figured he didn't need to spell that out for Peter. And since he didn't think Peter had anyone to spend the day with, it didn't seem fair to talk about it either.

"I'm going to be spending the better part of the morning possibly drowning in flowers," he said instead. "Does that count?"

"Oh yeah, heard about that," Peter said, sympathetically. "Sucks to be you."

"I figure this can be my big contribution to the student council for the semester," Sam said. "Do you have any big plans?"

Peter drummed his fingers on the countertop. "I don't know? I was pretty sure no. I mean - Ronan."

"Yeah, I figured," Sam said. "Valentine's Day has a way of being a really crappy holiday if you don't have someone to be with."

"Never really been into it much," Peter admitted. "'course I wasn't dating much before either. And I'm not dating now. So... that would stand, right?"

"Yeah, it would. I wasn't really into it until Dawn. It's definitely a girl holiday."

Peter thought about where they lived, then facepalmed. "Please God tell me Fandom's not going to gender-bend us all for the holidays."

Sam eyes widened a little at that thought. "It can't. Not again. That already happened once, remember?"

"Oh God." Peter pressed his hand even harder into his eyes. "I just pictured Nathan. Make it stop. Please?"

"Did you have to say that? Now I'm picturing it too," Sam replied. "Ugh, what about my dad?"

Peter buried his head in his hands. "For the record? I hate you."

"I hate you too, because you totally started this," Sam shot back.

"You're the one who brought it up by calling it a girl's holiday!"

"I meant because it's a holiday only girls like!"

"Whatever, I'm still blaming you," Peter said. He drank more of his coffee, perhaps to get the taste of the mental images out of his mouth. "Are a lot of people going stag to the dance? Do you know?"

"I don't know about the upcoming dance specifically, but I've seen lots of people by themselves at past dances, watching the drama unfold and mooching dances from their friends. It's not a huge deal."
