Study Hall -- Tuesday, October 11th

Sarah leans back in her chair, a dartboard set on the far wall that she's lazily throwing darts at. Almost every one hits the target -- the ones that don't make her scowl and put her in an even worse mood.

There's a sign set up on the desk that says, "Congratulations to the new student council," but every time one of the winners walks into the room, she gives them a nasty glare. She doesn't trust politicians, no matter how young they might be.

Comments

"Which, hey, any chatty big brother would have a problem with...."

Grissom. Aha!

"So, Logan has problems with who you date, and who you like, and-- ohhh," other things fall into place. "That's why you were asking Professor Drusilla about making it quiet." Parker looks disturbed. "Uh. Did you ever follow up on that?"

"Yeah, never had a big brother before. It kinda gets annoying." Rogue is oblivious to Parker's new knowledge. "And yeah, he comments about and during ... that, too."

She looks a little uncomfortable. "Uh, no. She freaks me out. A lot. And I have a weird feeling she'd enjoy looking through Logan and Erik's memories, and not because they are happy and fluffy. And that freaks me out even more." She shrugs. "They're okay most of the time. Just irritating. And I can block them out if I have to, but it takes a lot of energy, so I don't worry about it too often."

"Oh, god. A peanut gallery. You've got all my sympathy."

Parker lets out a breath of relief. "Good. Avoid her if at all possible. She's the reason I was a Perky Parker Princess during Homecoming-- she whammied me into NICE for the evening. God knows what she'd do to the guys in your head."

"Good to know. So. Dr. Grissom, hunh?" Parker dimples.

"I didn't really see you at homecoming, I've only heard stories. But, yeah, Perky Parker? Not your best look."

Rogue's mouth dropped. "How...am I that obvious? Oh, you can't tell anyone, promise? Please Parker? I feel so silly..." She clasps her hands together, and starts popping her knuckles.

"TELL me about it. I wish so many people hadn't gotten photos."

Parker grins. "No, you're not obvious. The 'grr' slip is what did it for me. Plus I saw you around him, after we whacked him with a really big book." She looks thoughtful. "If I were still into older guys, I could be into him."

Rogue blushes. "Well damn. At least I know I'm not too obvious." She looks a little dreamy. "He's just so...nice, and smart and distinguished..." She shakes her head, snapping out of it. "Sorry. I know I'm bein' silly."

She tries to turn the subject away from her crush. "So, Rob Gordon kinda killed the older man crush thing?"

"He is all that," Parker agrees, then shudders. "Much better than Coach Ash was, under the influence. I'm trying not to hold it against him. By comparison, Dr. Grissom is Pierce Brosnan."

"And God, yes. Killed it with a boombox." Parker makes a face. "I thought more experience would mean he wouldn't get stupid, but I was way, way off. Sex, great. Poetry, not."
