Bringing a friend to the cantina. ((locked to victormakesart))

There was a swish and a slight flash, and then Albus was standing near the bar with Fawkes on his shoulder and a young woman at his side. He blinked as always at the sudden change in scenery, then looked around with a smile to see if he could see anyone that he recognized before turning to Victor. "How do you feel, my dear?"

Comments

"Thank y' very much."

She drank just slow enough to be polite. Because she was really very thirsty.

[random_xtras]

Cassie watched her with concern. "You want some water?"

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Please." She stood. "Where is it?"

[random_xtras]

"In the tap." She pointed to the kitchen sink. "Don't worry, it's good. Just watch out, because it's also cold."

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Thanks." She turned on the faucet, placed her glass underneath it.

[random_xtras]

The water was cold. Mountain spring cold. It caused the glass to fog up slightly as it filled.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She shivered slightly, grinned. Then she turned off the water and drank it down (quickly-quickly) before refilling it and heading back to the table.

Mary stared at her. "Dude... didn't that give you a brain freeze?"

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She wrinkled her nose. "A bit. Needed th' rehydration more, though."

[random_xtras]

The thirteen year old rubbed the bridge of her nose at thought of brain freezes, but then gave her a cheesy grin and turned to Cassie. "So, today I learned about what kidneys do. It was, like, a hands on class, so I won't go into detail, but Jubal turned greeen, 'n Robbie thought it was great. Jack... I don't know what Jack thought, if he was. I'm still not sure if he ever does think."

She listened politely, with a small laugh. Oh, how she hated biology classes.

She would say 'Ew, dude, that's creepy', but she felt as though interrupting wouldn't be proper.

[random_xtras]

And then Mary glanced her way, including her in the conversation as Cassie chuckled and peeked under the blanket at Nathan.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She relaxed slightly, picking up on the physical cue. "Man oh man. Gotta love bio." She paused, decided that mentioning dissections would not be proper dinnertime conversation. "...Freshman year of high school, one of m' friends wore fishnets t' class. Well, he wore 'em un'er shorts."

((Vic performed an exorcism! (http://victormakesart.livejournal.com/56679.html#cutid1) And by exorcism, I mean more along the lines of I-don't-know-what-I'm-doing-so-I'm-going-to-tie-you-up-and-ask-nicely-okay?))

Mary blinked. "Bw...ewwwww."

"Mary..." warned Cassie.


((lol! An npc Jean I occasionally play in one comm once booted out an interloper.))

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"They were long shorts," she assured her. "It was an in'erestin' day in class, t' say the least. Can't remember, f'r the life of me, what I learned."

((Neat!))

[random_xtras]

Mary chuckled, squickedness at fishnets forgotten. "Sounds like any day Jack's awake."


((I think the gal's still walled up in a corner of Jean's mind... forgotten.))

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

Victor hung out with a diverse crowd. "Niiiiiice. Who's th' Jack-person?"

((Awww! Poor chickadee.))

[random_xtras]

"Jack Sparrow." Mary smirked and chased bits of purple mashed potato around her plate. "A thirteen year old version."


((lol, she was a badun))

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She laughed, then ate slowly. "Poor deary, stuck in a school."

((Stiiiiiiill. :D ))

[random_xtras]

"Stuck in school, stuck in clean clothes, stuck sober." Mary sniggered. "He's kinda cute though. Robbie's cuter, though."

Cassie, meanwhile, arranged everything and got up to lay Nathan on Mnlon on the couch.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She tipped her a wink. "Poor kid. Now, if I was forced t' do th' opposite, I'd've a prob."

[random_xtras]

A grin full of unrepentant mischief came back her way. "Always thought school'd be a drag, but it's not."

"Does anybody want ketchup or anything?" asked Cassie from the fridge.

"Oops." Mary blinked and looked around, realizing that she'd forgotten the condiments.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She suppressed a snicker at the 'drag' comment. Really. She was a Grown Up. "Yeah. High school...really rocked."

"N' thank you." :D

[random_xtras]

"I'm just in junior high yet...." Mary watched Cassie bring ketchup and mustard over, then offered a grin that made Cassie blink and look down at her plate for a moment before she grinned back and cut more roast.

Which was strangely delicious.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Ah, well, it's somethin' t' really look forward to. I think. Grade're y' in now?" Small giggle and she took a tiny bite of the roast. Grin.
