Study Hall -- Tuesday, October 4th

[principalconnor.livejournal.com]

Welcome to the study hall for Tuesday. If anybody's looking for me, the gremlins are on an upswing today, so I'll be prowling around with a cricket bat and a CD player with Music To Bash Things With.

A few announcements:

-- Please go here to participate in the roll call of student clubs so that we can make sure that all student clubs are accounted for.

-- The student body is reminded that any student going to Homecoming will need to purchase tickets. Homecoming elections will be held this Friday, and Homecoming is this upcoming weekend. Also, in student council news, the Student Council Election Debates will be held Wednesday night, with the election itself taking place on Monday.

-- In other news, five teaching positions will be listed later on today for your perusal. We are in need of new teachers, so please check that out when the post is made.

-- For some fucking reason, Locker 327 has been in reverse all morning long and has been randomly spewing strange things into the halls. Someone should be repairing it later in the week, but until then, be aware of the dangers and be on guard accordingly.

-- In related news, there's a mime loose on campus. And no, you're not allowed to kill it. You are, however, allowed to mock and point.

Rogue plops down in a desk near the center of the room. She opens her Classics book and starts trying to figure out if there's even the smallest possibility she can pass this class.

*sits down next to Rogue*

You were at Lee's yesterday, right?

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

Rogue looks up. "Yeah, I was there." She looks Callisto over. She hadn't really seen the girl around since Zombie weekend, and that was a blur anyway. "That Janet girl was kind of a bitch."

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Tell me about it. *shakes head* She's not normally like that, but she's been acting strange the last few days.

I'm sorry, I don't think we've been properly introduced. *offers hand* Callisto.

"Oh good. Two of my favorite people in this school," Beka says cheerfully as she slides into a seat next to Callisto.

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Hey, Beka.

You catch the drama at Lee's yesterday?

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

"No." And this is said with a guilty look Angelus's direction. "Been, ah, avoiding drama. And Janet. The whole homecoming thing is drama enough."





(OOC: We haven't retconned it yet, but as of two days ago, Beka and Jack are friends with benefits and Jack is going with someone else, and Beka is probably going with Shep. Because it was too funny to pass up. So, probably best to nod and pretend you have some clue what Beka's talking about. *g* We need to figure out the rooming thing and find a place. I was thinking of seeing if Dierdre had rooms at Amber House. That work?)

*nods knowingly*

You would have od'ed then. Janet kissed Lee in front of Thrace, then bitched Cally out when she tried to talk to her.

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

*startled laugh*

Wow. Go Janet. Guess someone else will be at the top of Thrace's shit-list for awhile. Heard she was gunning for me when I invited Lee to live with us.

As if. He's such a girl.

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

*deadly serious*

No Beka. Not "go Janet". There is something seriously off with her.

In case you didn't hear me, Janet. Bitched. Out. Cally.

Y'know Cally, cute little thing, wouldn't hurt a fly, but kills toasters stone dead.

She tries to show concern for Janet and she shuts her down like that. She nearly broke Crichton's wrist yesterday for doing the same thing. Does that sound like Janet to you?

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

"I'm Rogue," she says as she shakes Callisto's hand. "You had a sword during the zombie fight, right? You were good."

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

You weren't exactly bad with with that gun either.

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

"Thanks. I'm hopin' I can get some trainin' and get better; it seems like it might come in usefull around here." She smiles. "So, do we have any idea what's wrong with Janet? She doesn't even seem human any more. She kinda moves like someone I know*, a little too smooth. You know?"

*Rogue is referring to Mystique, who she doesn't know is attending school here. Not trying to kill Janet's plot, promise. ^_^

And they never did actually meet. I just assume Rogue vaguely knows/recognizes who she was fighting with, even though she doesn't know them well at all.

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

I don't know what's wrong, but you're right about the way she moves. And it's bugging the Tartarus out of me, I know it but I can't place it.

[janet_fraiser]

We so need to have an encounter some time today. Why do you have to be so far away geographically that our time zones are completely incompatible? *wails in agony*

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Beka reaches out from next to Callisto, palm up and open. She won't touch Rogue before she's acknowledged her because it's always a bad idea to startle people, even friends. "Hey," she says softly. "How are you?"

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

Rogue smiles at Beka. "I'm doin' surprisin'ly well. The hangover yesterday was hellish, though."

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

"OMG, yes. I wasn't as bad as you guys - nothing is worse than serial slipstream jumps. But I still wanted to die. Especially when poor Shep woke up in my bed..." She laughs.

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

Rogue laughs along. "What did he say when he regained consiousness? I can only imagine that conversation..."

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

"He was in a panic. The thing on his forehead about him and me... Rogue..." Beka does a very rare thing and giggles. "He about lost it. He didn't know whether to be pissed he hadn't gotten the full benefit of finally having sex with me, furious that I'd taken advantage of him, disgusted, or just be nice and not hurt my feelings. It was awesome.

"The condom-lube on his nose really creeped him out, too. I had to tell him there was no kink involved." She snickers.







(OOC: It's still ongoing. We had to slow-play it, along with another critical conversation that will determine the outcome. But it looks like Shep and Beka are both going to be eating crow. *snicker*)

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

"Oh that's GREAT. I wish I'd been there to see it." Rogue snickers. "Poor baby. At least he missed the stripping. Or he's probably more annoyed me missed the stripping."

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

Beka looks vaguely embarrassed. "He didn't miss much. All I had on when we woke was a sports jersey. All. And I was pretty well wrapped around him."

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

Rogue's eyebrows shoot up. "Oh really? Are you sure you didn't...you know." Shaking her head at her own shyness, she repeats, "You sure you didn't have sex with him?

"Of course, I woke up on the floor next to Phoebe's bed, and I know you guys left me in MY bed, so anything's possible when drunk." She looks a little embarrassed. "The shirt I had on all day? I think it was one of Pheeb's boy's."

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

She shakes her head minutely. "We didn't. No mess. And I wasn't bruised or anything. Drunk-sex tends to be sloppy.

"Phoebe's boy...Cole, right?"




(OOC: off for a bit. Pick this up later.)
