Study Hall, Monday, Oct. 31

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

Still wearing his sombrero, Dream has thrown open the doors to study hall and dropped himself at the table up front.

He seems to be scrutinizing the students who walk in, especially the boys, especially the taller boys.

Small bowls of candy are scattered throughout the room.

After her conversation with Janet, Jaye walks in and takes a seat. She opens up a notebook and starts plotting out her Criminal Justice project.

Rogue enters study hall, during what would have been journalism class. She spots Jaye and walks over. "Hey. Sorry I missed the anti-parent's weekend drinking." She takes a nearby seat and pulls out a notebook.

[fates_jaye]

"Oh, no problem. So did I," she says. "How'd it go with your guardian person?"

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

Rogue smiles a little. "Surprisingly well. Except for the creepy eyes eatin' popcorn and watchin' us outside the Halloween party.

"Your sister drive you crazy?"

[fates_jaye]

"Creepy eyes eat popcorn?" She frowns.

"Yeah, she drove me completely nuts. She had to stay in the dorms, couldn't smoke, thought I was a delinquent and was genuinely surprised I knew anyone's name. So it went better than I thought."

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, that was my question, but they apparently do."

Rogue laughs just a little, "That sounds like an awful time. Has she always thought you were a delinquent?"

[fates_jaye]

Jaye nods. And continues nodding. "Well, I was involved in a purse incident and there was attacking and badness, so maybe it's a little true, but there were good reasons for that," she says defensively. "But now she thinks all of you are delinquents, too. I think she thinks I'm at a school for the criminally insane."

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

"I'm sure there were very good reasons," Rogue nods, agreeing.

She smirks. "Well, we are all kind of delinquent in some way. And insane definitely fits this place. So maybe your sister wasn't all wrong."

[fates_jaye]

Jaye shrugs. "You might a point," she says. "So any big Halloween plans?"

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

Rogue sighs. "Not really. If there's something goin' on, I might show up, but I don't have anything specific planned. What about you?"

[fates_jaye]

"I don't know. There should be something. Maybe that movie night thing in the dorms. Or maybe I'll just go trick or treating and freak out the townies."

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

"All those movies looked kind of lame. But maybe the older ones would be fun."

[fates_jaye]

"They have possibility. And there are enough people around who probably never had a clue these movies existed, so there might be an actual freakout for them," Jaye says. "I might have to start worrying that I find other people as entertainment."

Phoebe looks around for her puppy that Principal Connor always lets her play with. When she doesn't see him, she sighs sadly and makes her way to the back of the room.

Draco comes into study hall and sets a candy bowl beside him. Muggle candy was not as good as wizard candy but hey, candy was candy.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

Angelus comes in, chipper as ever. When he spots Draco he veers course from aiming for his seat by the window so he can clap Draco on the arm as he passes.

"Drac, how's it hanging?"

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

"Managed to not be killed by my Mother this weekend so that's good. Why are you bouncing around like a girl scout this morning?"

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"I had a better than average night for being dragged into a Halloween celebration," Angelus said, taking a chair next to Draco. "As you know, normally I abstain but Logan and Darla talked me into it. I must say I was not bored."

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

"Really? I heard many a crazy thing happened at that party last night. I'm sorry I missed it." he said "What happened to you?"

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Got locked in a room with Logan, Darla, and some chick who looks like Rory," Angelus tilted his chair back on two legs, rocking it slightly. "Got knocked out for part of it during which Logan had to kiss me, not that I know about this because see also: asleep while it happened and when I woke up Logan had fangs."

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

"I'm very familar with the Rory doppelganger." says Draco "Logan turned into a vampire? Please tell me it was permanent because that would be brilliant."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Halloween magic so I'm guessing no," Angelus gave Draco a private grin. "Not that I disagree with your assessment. Pulled off the game face nicely too. Not everybody can."

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

"That's too bad." he said "The look on everyone's face would have been priceless."

Draco leans in closer to Angelus "I heard Marty is getting on Jonathan's ass about what happened at Spike's. Does he really have anything? Cause no one gets on my roomie's ass except me."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"He claims he has something," Angelus said, lowering his voice as well. "But given how he also thought the snickerdoodles were tainted I'm not exactly shaking in my boots. John - uh, John Connor, not Johnny - is going to keep an eye on Marty though. Figured it couldn't hurt."

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

"Good, he needs to be watched. That's one guy who takes his student council job way too seriously." he says "He should just stick to being emo and hanging out with his muppety chicken."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Personally I'm wondering if he's not starting to crack under the pressure," Angelus said. "He's jumping at a lot of ghosts and shadows. Which, granted, not that this town isn't haunted. But still, you want a security officer who keeps things secure, not one who spends his time fighting the non-existant bunnies."

Distracted by Cameron -- and the gummybear that seems to have melded itself to Dream's incisor -- Dream does not give Angelus more than a cursory glance.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

[ooc: I'm now picturing Dream trying to get the gummy bear out in a way not unlike a dog with peanut butter. Hee hee hee!]

[OOC: Bwah. Human food is a problem for him, the doofus.]

Piper wanders into study hall, tired from lack of sleep. She had a lot on her mind.

Lana wanders into study hall and takes a seat. She looks around a little nervously from time to time wondering if that Archie person might show up and how she would ever recognize him if he did. She wasn't even going to consider what she might say to him.

*takes his usual seat and starts to read his business textbook*

[12parseckessel.livejournal.com]

Han signs in and joins him. "You want to go to one of the movies tonight?"

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

After walking Vala to her first class of the day, Cameron enters the study hall. There's no puppies to play with this time, so he just takes a seat and pulls out his notes for Archaeology. As he stifles a yawn, he thinks that perhaps Vala was right about getting up so early.

Cam is the first boy to walk into study hall who even vaguely fit Lockheed's description, so Dream pays special attention. As he watches him struggle not to fall asleep, he sends a gentle wave of slumber in his direction. It can't hurt to just take a look...

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

He can't stop the yawn this time and it's getting harder to concentrate on the letters in front of him. It doesn't take long for Cameron to fall asleep and soon he's back in the cockpit, listening to Banks shouting at him that they're hit and got bandits on their six.

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

Dream concentrates on the sleeping boy and -- so as not to disturb him -- gently scans his dream.

It is on what looks to Dream like an airplane or spaceship of some kind. He sees death, but no murder. Violence, but it is in the dreamer's future, not his past.

And he does not see a dragon.

Feeling like his duty has been discharged, Dream pulls back from the dream to allow Cameron his privacy. He hopes that if Cam remembers his brief presence, it will be written off as the type of odd blending of what is and what is not that is so common in the Dreaming.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

Just for a moment it feels like there's someone else with them in the cockpit, but there's no time to concentrate as there's too much going on around him.

Behind him, Banks has stopped responding and he knows without a doubt that he's going to crash down into the icy planes below them. The glass in the window shatters as they go in, nose first.

With a start, Cameron wakes up again. Some of the cold has followed him out of the dream and he shivers as he looks up at Dream, he realises that he's still in the Study Hall.

Anders has no coffee this morning as he shows up in study hall. He does, however, have a pocket full of gumballs (two of which he's chewing with gusto) and a notepad in which he's scribbling down slogan ideas for the the repair service he's going to be helping Bridge and Cally with.

*Del pokes distractedly at a bowl of candy. The butterfly wrapped ones begin to flutter, and a chocolate bar tries to scurry away on hundreds of tiny pink legs*

*Del grabs a handful and shoves them into her mouth, then wanders away. The remaining candy twitches, newly crinkled wrapper reflecting light nervously*

[addams-daughter.livejournal.com]

Arriving with books beneath her arm, a wooden box in one hand and a distracted look in her eye, Wednesday paused to look at the candy. After a moment, she put down the box and picked up four of the candies, tucking them neatly into a pocket.

Finding a quiet seat near the back, she placed the box upon her desk and began studying.

With his classes either finished or cancelled, John comes into study hall with a few books intent on studying for midterms.

[demonbelthazor]

Belthazor wandered into studyhall between classes. He sat down by Phoebe, debating trying to take a nap rather than work on anything.

Alanna noticed that the puppies were gone and entered study hall. If anyone looked closely, they may have noticed a pair of purple eyes glowing from her book bag.
