Study Hall -- Thursday, October 6th

[principalconnor.livejournal.com]

Sarah doesn't bother announcing the study hall or the announcements. She is leaning back in her desk chair, chain-smoking cigarettes while she nurses a cup of hot black coffee and occasionally rocks back and forth in the chair. She's wearing dark sunglasses and her hair is a mess. Every once in a while, she stops moving, and it's entirely possible she's napping.

There's a large bowl of marbles on the desk in front of her. If anybody pisses her off or annoys her, she may or may not peg a marble at their head, depending on whether or not she gives enough of a shit.

*Elizabeth sits down in her seat, feeling a little less tired, and tries to work on her homework*

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

I am actually meeting with Inara Serra to figure out what I should wear. I wanted to go with something a bit more modern *smiles*

But, if you want colors, I'm probably going to go with something in the pink or red family.

[jayne-serenity.livejournal.com]

yeah, thatll work...

anything else you need? Pretty sparkly stuff or any of that?

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

*She shakes her head, grinning* No, that should do just fine. I am but a simple girl at heart.

[jayne-serenity.livejournal.com]

*light bark of sarcastic laughter*

yeah - Ive seen yer dresses and stuff... you aint anything but another complicated, devious, female.. and ya all like the pretties...

all women are pirates, girl... worse then any man.

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

*She smirks* No wonder I'm attracted to pirates then Except I do not steal my treasure, I get it legally. Although sometimes that requires a bit of manipulation

[jayne-serenity.livejournal.com]

ya steal hearts - aint that the same thing?

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

*She thinks* Well, maybe...in a way...*she scratches her head* luckily I can't get hanged for that

[jayne-serenity.livejournal.com]

*smirks, almost smiling*

::sees Elizabeth and Jayne, but waits until Jayne leaves::

Hello, Elizabeth. I didn't want to intrude. ::nods to the departing Jayne::

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

It is quite all right *she grins*

[ooc: sorry about last night, couldn't find time to post because my computer's been doing this nasty thing where it shuts off by itself T_T]

(OOC: S'alright. I understand comp problems.)

I wanted to discuss our plans for Parents' Weekend. Both Han and Jayne had suggestions that might be of interest to you.

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

I would be delighted to! I think it would certainly be a good idea to smooth everything out.

[bluemanoncampus.livejournal.com]

::smiles at her eagerness::

To start with, Han agreed to be unobtrusively present for the initial introductions, with some recording devices.

Han also suggested that it would be improper for a fine gentleman such as myself to be left adrift by his parents during such an important gathering, so he volunteered Chewbacca to act as my father. ::grins impishly::

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

*She chuckles, nodding enthusiastically* That would be fabulous. I cannot wait to see the look on my father's face!

[bluemanoncampus.livejournal.com]

::nods:: Then I'll talk with Chewbacca and coordinate our side of things.

The next thing I wanted to tell you about was this:

::pulls a small box out of his pocket, gets down on one knee and offers said box to Elizabeth with a twinkle in his eye::

We should do this properly, should we not?

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

[ooc: excuse me while I squee! XD]

*Elizabeth's eyes glittered as her lips curled into an understanding smile.* Oh, you didn't have to! *She was truly touched*

[bluemanoncampus.livejournal.com]

::still on bent knee::

And in fact, I was not the one to think of it. Jayne had planned to give this to you, but passed it along to me instead.

So. Elizabeth Turner, will you accept me as your temporary fianceé?

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

[ooc: I really shouldn't have made my username lizzy_turner when her last name's swann *headdesk*]

*Elizabeth looked puzzled for a moment at the mention of Jayne wanting to give the ring to her, but she let it pass quickly and smiled again*

Yes, Hank, I would be honoured.

[bluemanoncampus.livejournal.com]

::opens the ringbox and puts the ring on Elizabeth's finger::

::stands and sits next to Elizabeth, grinning::

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

[ooc: It's quite all right, partially my fault for not picking a different username :P]

*She brings her hand closer to her face so she could see the ring in the light.* It's beautiful!

[bluemanoncampus.livejournal.com]

Isn't it, though? I don't know where Jayne ordered it, but he certainly has good taste for jewelry.

[lizzy-turner.livejournal.com]

Well, he is a pirate *she smirked* They know their treasure.

I shall have to thank him, too. *She grins*
