UNLV, Tonopah Hall, Room 313 - evening

[izzyalienqueen]

Her parents had left to make the trip back to Roswell, her roommate was off to start setting up her studio, and Isabel had finally finished hanging up pictures and posters in her new dorm room. Satisfied, and exhausted because late night Olympic watching was going to kill her, she sat down with her laptop to check out the list of theme camps at Burning Man.

"Fair is fair," Wyatt agreed. "And what do you think, that Michael Phelps guy kinda looks like me, huh?"

"A bit. Although," Isabel grinned, reaching out to tug on a lock of Wyatt's hair, "I can't see you cutting this all off to reduce drag in the water."

[blessed_twice]

"I look like a dork with short hair," Wyatt confessed. "I'd only cut it if I was at gunpoint or something."

After a moment's consideration, she nodded. "Yeah, I just can't picture it. Which means you'll need to protect when you're out doing your thing. So it doesn't get slimed or singed."

Wyatt shuddered. "I wonder if I could just heal it back in that case," he said.

"You could always call me," Isabel offered. "I'm pretty sure I can help."

"Save my hair, save me," Wyatt grinned, sneaking a forkful of Isabel's food.

She let him have a forkful. But a second attempt would be fended off. "I'd be there in a heartbeat. Wearing my Super alien girl antennae, because every superhero needs a costume."

"Does that mean I need to wear tights and a cape?" Wyatt asked.

"Leather. Definitely leather." Someone might have a bit of a kink. As if the multiple leather jackets and skirts she owed weren't enough of a clue. "Maybe something long and sweepy. So you can make an entrance."

"I bet we could find something appropriate when we explore the Strip," Wyatt said. "And I know the Excalibur is totally for kids but we have to go there." Cue puppy dog eyes.

Isabel had to laugh at the puppy eyes. "Sure. We'll go there. But I still think you need to go with me to England the next time I visit Parker so that you can see the real thing."

[blessed_twice]

Wyatt perked up. "You won't hear any argument from me about that," he said.

His apparent enthusiasm made Isabel feel guilty that she hadn't brought him along when she went this past Spring, even if things might have been a bit strained because of the stupid evil teddy bear. "Next time. I promise. But for now we'll have to make do with the cheesy tourist trap."

[blessed_twice]

"And pirates and Egyptian tombs, too?" Wyatt asked. Those, of course, were secondary compared to the lure of the Excalibur.

"That to. And I'm going to take a minute to make a request for a Venetian gondola ride please." She could do puppy eyes just as well.

[blessed_twice]

"Do I get to steer?" Wyatt said. He was kidding, that might end in tears, or at least sogginess.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Only if you wear the striped shirt and the straw hat," Isabel teased right back.

[blessed_twice]

"That can be arranged," Wyatt smirked.

"I'm sure. But then you'll be steering the boat and not snuggling on the seat with me," Isabel pointed out. "I'm not sure I'd like that."
