Room 406, Late afternoon/ early evening

[izzyalienqueen]

The posterboard and markers where piled on the desk. Isabel sat on the bed scribbling on a notepad attempting and failing miserably to come up with campaign slogans. The radio is playing, the door is open and she's waiting for Peter and Bridge to show up.

After a brief incident in the park, Peter stopped by his room, dried his face, pulled some leaves out of his hair, grabbed his supplies, went up to Isabel's room, and knocked on the door. He was glad to end that sentence.

"Come in! It's open."

"Hey, Isabel," Peter said as he entered the room. "I'm ready for some campaigning."

"Hi Peter. Great!" She motioned towards the pile of poster supplies. "I've got the supplies but I'm seriously lacking in ideas of what to say. I don't think a career in advertising is in my future."

"Crap. I brought supplies, too," Peter said, putting his stuff down. "I hoped someone else was bringing the ideas. Oh well, we'll figure out something, I'm sure."

"If not, there's always lollipops."

She picked up the pen and pad and started tapping the pen against the paper. "I put up some posters this morning that talked about cross class cooperation and sophomore solidarity. But I still feel like we should be offering something concrete or a tangible goal. How about some kind of organized game night or something similar? It seems like there's always something going on in the common rooms but it still seems like it's mostly spur of the moment."

"I think that's a good idea. I get the impression it would turn chaotic pretty quickly. People stealing from the bank, hiding the hat..." Peter thought of something and smiled geekily. "Oh, God. We have to do a Risk night. That would be insane. We must use this idea."

"I'm very scared prepares for a night with no sleep. It would be insane," she laughed. "And if we did Monopoly for a more traditional game night, and Trivial Pursuit night for the trivia buffs... How about just a casino night? Then I think we'd offer something for everyone."

"That is really brilliant. The casino night could even be a fundraiser of some sort," Peter suggested. "No clue what we'd be raising funds for, but that could be figured out later."

"We'd have to see about that. I'm not sure how the state of Virginia feels about high school students gambling." She drummed the pen a few more times, "Unless you donate a set amount, say $10 for $1000 in chips. That way we could raise money, but not break any laws, or bankrupt or fellow students while we're going it."

Isabel scribbled something on the notepad, "How's this? Regular, organized fun in the midst of the chaos."

"Good point. See? This is why I'm not Idea-Man, defender of... um... I've got nothing there either. See? Nothing there either," Peter said.

"You, on the other hand, are a genius and deserve a lollipop," Peter said as he pulled the lollipop bag out of his pile. "A lollipop from the bag I was given for your campaign the other day and never returned. Dude. I'm sorry I'm completely riding your coattails right now. If you need anyone to do physical labor for the campaign, I can do that!"

Isabel took the lollipop and started to unwrap it. "Actually, the bag was Parker's. I think we owe her a new one."

"As for coattails," Isabel said, "Help me make some posters and there's no problem!"

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"I can do that!" Peter said. "And I doubt Parker will mind about the lollipops. I already stole her last name, a bag of lollipops isn't nearly as bad as that."
