The Library (04/20)

Rory hurried in after ACJ, and took up her post behind the collections desk with her laptop.

"You seem to be in one piece, at least," Rory noted. "Always a good sign."

[and let's all pretend that I didn't accidentally have Rory switch genders in the above comment. *headdesks* *a lot*]

"You should have seen me at the hospital when they had to stitch my arm back on. It wasn't pretty," Peter joked.

"Hey, I have a serious question for you and I'm ashamed to admit that I actually stopped to talk to you just because of this."

[OOC: I hadn't even noticed.]

Rory arched a brow. "Shoot."

"What flowers don't clash with blue hair? I have no clue what her dress is like but her sister's boyfriend designed it and he's a big name professional designer guy so he probably made it work with her hair and Angela told me to ask you about girly stuff. So. Flowers. What works?" Peter finally took a breath.

Rory stared at him. "Breathe. Um, white's your best bet, since it goes with everything. Red, yellow and orange are all out because they'd look weird. Same goes for pink. You could go with something like black or very dark roses, or white, or get creative and go with white orchids or lilies. I assume we're talking corsages, right?"

"I assume so. I'm clueless with this prom thing if you hadn't noticed," Peter said. "And this is Zero, so creativity would probably be a good thing."

"Yeah, so you want to go with something unique. Do you know the color of her dress, at least?" Rory asked. "Because you don't want to clash with that either."

"I know nothing of the dress. It's supposed to be a surprise," Peter said. "I just know that I'm putting a lot of faith in this Claude guy to not mess with me and I hope he comes through."

"I'd go with white, then," Rory said with an air of finality. "Hedge your bets. Stick to an unusual flower if you can, though - and avoid roses like the plague."

"Roses carry the plague, go with a hedge. Gotcha," Peter said. "Thank you for the help and sorry for springing that on you."

"No problem," Rory said, not bothering to correct him since she was pretty sure he was just kidding.

"So, would it be safe to assume that you're going with Anakin? Just a night out with a friend?" Peter asked. He was curious about something.

Rory nodded. "S'what happens when very good friends are single simultaneously around prom, right?"

"Is he going to be wearing a tux? Or does he have really fancy robes?" Peter asked.

"I...don't know," Rory said thoughtfully. "I have a dress, but I don't know what he's wearing."

"Well, now that I have you curious about that, I should probably study. Or go rent a tux. One of those two things," Peter said. "Do you know if there's any place to rent a tux around here that wasn't selling whoopie cushions a couple weeks ago?"

"No idea," Rory confessed. "I'm going to that place with a bunch of girls and Jakey and Cam after school, though."

"I'll probably stop there tomorrow," Peter said. "Avoid the rush of way too many people there at once."

"Good idea," Rory said, nodding. "Here's hoping you don't get stuck with the powder blue tux with ruffles."

"I'm sure I could make that work," Peter joked. "Okay, maybe not the ruffles. But powder blue? Oh, yeah, that's me."

"And it wouldn't clash with Zero's hair," Rory agreed.

"I'll have to see what I can do, then," Peter said. "Okay, I go study. I'll talk to you later."

"Bye. Good luck," Rory said, waving.
