Study Hall Friday 12-2

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

She opens study hall and has crayons, tape, glitter glue, and an assortment of paper if you want to do something besides study or chatter. She is busy coloring pictures of flowers and rainbows and sunshine and ice cream...and any other happy thing she can think of.

Help youself...draw the nice teacher a picture or two.

Wesley shows up to study whatever-it-is he has classes in. He is much, much too dignified to play with children's toys.

On the other hand, if you were to look over his shoulder, you might notice that he is doodling.

The drawing shows a pink kitten being chased by a ravening book; the book is chomping its boards against one another menacingly.

Lana comes in and sits down near Wesley. "Hey, I've been trying to find you for a while. That whole thing at the hospital? When I came to see Shep and you took off? I just... well, I was worried that I'd done something to upset you or offend you. And if I have I wanted to, well, you know, apologize or find a way to make things right."

Wes blushes. "No, no, you didn't offend me at all. I simply thought John would prefer to have one visitor at a time, and my presence was de trop."

Lana looks a little confused, "Why would John only want one person to see him at a time? And why would your presence be de trop? You're his roommate. I'm just a... friend - and one he barely knew at that!"

*Shep comes in and grabs some markers and paper and glitter and flops down on the sofa and then slides to the floor so he can put the paper on the low table. He has a large sheet of black construction paper that he's busily dotting with glue and then covering with glitter. He looks faintly bugged or bothered, but only those who know him well will think it's anything other than his wrist aggrivating him.*

So, how's Oregon?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_wespryce/]

Oregon? Er -- the same as it's always been, I expect. Somewhere -- he waves a hand vaguely at the window -- over there?

[wraithbaitjohn.livejournal.com]

You let her run free? Outside? I hope you put a flea color on her. And as far as I know Beka's still running lose, so I hope you've recently fed her. *sighs*

How are you classes?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_wespryce/]

"Oh, OCTAVIA." He rolls his eyes about 15 degrees. "She's fine, thanks. Getting a little tired of being locked in the room, which is where she's staying until Beka's safe. Although with the transformation rate at this school, God knows when it will ever be safe to let her out -- what's the current tally, one wolf, one partial cat, one hamster?"

My classes are nonexistent
"Very ... class-like. I've finally set up an independent study with Dr. Pierson." He shudders. "In the process, I was privileged to witness the opening stages of a truly nasty squabble."

[wraithbaitjohn.livejournal.com]

I was just about to warn you about Cameron.

Odyssius might eat Beka, Cameron might eat Odyessius... If they weren't all animals it would sound like a giant FH orgy. Which would probably be a lot more fun than letting biology class use them as a live example of the food chain.

And... a *partial cat* I must have missed that one. I know about Zero who seems to be all cat. Who's a partial cat?

What are you studying with Mr. Library? And a squable? Was Zero involved? She could single handedly (pawedly?) redefine 'cat fight' right now.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_wespryce/]

Ms. Savage is the partial cat; she's only a cat part of the time. (He looks interested.) Perhaps she's a were-cat...

I'm doing an independent study from home; mostly collations and text analysis. Which leads us to the squabble. I was in the Library looking up a source when the Library wolfpack came striding through with flame in their eyes and blood under their fingernails, bound for Prof. Pierson's office. After a few moments, Prof. Pierson came striding out, flame and blood ditto ditto. Wild accusations flew through the air, at which point Ms. Frasier declared the library closed and I was only too glad to exist.

[wraithbaitjohn.livejournal.com]

She were-a-cat before, but isn't any more?

Gotta wonder what got Janet's undies in a bunch. ... But isn't Prof. Pierson the actual librarian? How does Janet rank the power to kick him out of his own library?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_wespryce/]

I'm sure that in Ms. Frasier's mind she has the rank to exclude God Himself from the library. In this particular case, however, she merely asked patrons to depart what was becoming a most unseemly discussion. Prof. Pierson, the Doctor, and the Library staff remained.

[wraithbaitjohn.livejournal.com]

Ah. Nothing like a little drama to get the blood flowing, I suppose.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_wespryce/]

Quite possibly literally.

[wraithbaitjohn.livejournal.com]

Yeah, right out onto the floor.

And the people at the last school I went to said the library was so boring.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_wespryce/]

"I shall never speak ill of boredom again." He winces. "Libraries are supposed to be a sanctuary, elevated above the vicissitudes of the outside world. A haven for learning, for history, for thought."

[wraithbaitjohn.livejournal.com]

Not to be a complete teenager, or anything but... you might want to get out of said libraries and... I don't know, take up a sport or something. If you use 'vicissitudes' in normal conversation around some of the characters around here, you might end up having an up close and personal meeting with locker 327, you know?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_wespryce/]

Wesley gives him a bleak smile. "I think it's a little late for that." He stands abruptly. "Glad to see you're out and about", and he heads for the door.

[wraithbaitjohn.livejournal.com]

Later. Watch out for 327. :)
