Room 406, all day

[izzyalienqueen]

It hadn't been a bad last week in Fandom. Between being social, seals, presents, and reality TV, it was certainly memorable. Even if the good-byes weren't so much fun.

There wasn't much left to pack. But Isabel was taking her time doing it.

The door was open.

[OOC: Good-bye post. *sniffles* Assume handwavey phone calls. ETA: Random bouts of SP for the rest of the afternoon due to RL.]

Yeah, like he was gonna miss saying goodbye to Isabel. Especially since he actually *had* come pretty close to missing her, if SPD had seen fit to keep him and Z around for just one more day. But they hadn't, and so he was here.

"Hey, you," he says with a small smile.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"You're back!" Which is stating the obvious since a) she listened to radio and b) he's standing there.

"I'd been worried I was going to miss you."

Suddenly at some point in the afternoon, standing in the doorway there was an Anders, and a huge box of cupcakes in his hands, and the same pouty, stubborn expression that he wore every time he had to do this goodbye thing.

"No pouting," Isabel told him. "You're going to come to visit me in Vegas and I'll be in Neptune for your first game."

Lana stopped in to say goodbye. "I hate to see you go," she said quietly. "Seems like every day more and more people are gone."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"It's time," Isabel said. "Even if it means missing the rest of the world tour."

[intraspective]

Ino, having managed to convince Liir-kitty that yes, he had to stay in her room while she left it, and no he would not pine without further cuddles, poked her head around the door.

"...the dish on Michael and I?" That totally counted as hello, right?

Isabel shrugged and closed the drawer she'd been rooting through. "Big sister prerogative. I get to be nosy."

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

Meg did her best to not look completely miserable about Isabel leaving. So instead of frowning, there was pouting. Which was much better. Really.

"Hey."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Hey yourself," Isabel smiled, unable to not be amused at the pouting. It was such a strange look for Meg.

"You might trip over that lip."

Jen came by a little later in the day because Shanie is a masochist. She didn't come bearing gifts of food, but she was turning over what looked like a small metal card in her hands.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel was taking down the last of her pictures off the wall. "Hey Jen. I'm glad you came by."

[absolutesnark]

Summer decided to stop by to say goodbye. "Heard you were leaving."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"It's time," Isabel nodded. "I want to spend some time with my brothers before I have to turn up at orientation."

[neurotic-witch.livejournal.com]

Chris was sad that Wyatt and Isabel were leaving Fandom already.

But that didn't mean he wouldn't go to say goodbye.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Hey you," Isabel smiled. "This is not good-bye. I plan on seeing you on a regular basis at every holiday and then some."

[likethegun]

Sam stood quietly in the doorway for a minute, watching Isabel. "I've decided I don't like this summer."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel had had enough with packing for a bit and was instead checking out the latest on Google Reader.

"That's how I felt last year," Isabel admitted, setting side her computer. "It seemed like everyone else was moving on and leaving me behind."

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

Savannah poked her head in the door. "Hey."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Hey yourself," Isabel replied. "How are you doing?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

Johnny leaned against the door frame, watching her for a moment. He wasn't good at goodbye's. Not one bit. "Hey you."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"You," she smiled, zipping up her bag and setting it aside. "How are you?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean leaned in the doorway. "So you are going to keep in touch, right?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Postcards from every diner we hit along the way to Roswell," Isabel promised. "And possibly a t-shirt commemorating the world's largest ball of twine."

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

Hoshi did not look to happy when she turned up to say good-bye. "I'm really going to miss you," she said.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I'm not going that far," Isabel smiled. "And there's email and phone calls and all that. It could be like I never left."

[needsaparrot]

Eventually -- almost like he'd been putting it off or wasn't home yet -- there was a Xander knocking at a very familiar door. "Hey, you."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Wow," Isabel said. "This is odd. It's like when I came here. Only completely reversed."
