Room 406, Wednesday, late afternoon

[izzyalienqueen]

A unexpected phone call had changed Isabel's plans for at least the weekend. After all, there's no sense in going to LA and not spending some time there. She hung up with Angel and then made a call to arrange transportation. That done, she made a few more calls to let people know she'd be out of town.

Phone calls made, Isabel pulled her bag out from under her bed and started to pack.

The door's open.


[ooc: Open to all. Thread with Greg is getting NWS. Just in case anyone in an office wants to read. Yes, I do mean you! ;-)]

After getting back to his room, and hearing Izzy's message, Jack immediately made his way to the fourth floor and knocked quietly on her door.

[and I'm going to be erratic liek woah, just so you know.]

"Hi!" she smiled. "Did you get my message?"

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"Message? There was a message?" Jack grinned and leaned on the door frame. "I was just draw irresistibly to the fourth floor by your radiance. It's like a siren song."

Isabel snickered, "You might be drawn to the fourth floor but I think it's because of the person in the room down the hall."

"The person you're running off to Mexico with?" Jack straightened and grasped her hand, tucking it against his chest and fluttering his lashes at her. "I was forced to confess my secret love for you in the hopes of getting him to take me with you."

"Ah yes, our trip. Sadly it's going to have to be postponed a bit." Isabel stepped closer and rested her head against his chest. "But I don't have a problem with you coming with us. I'll be the envy of every woman there with two such handsome men on my arms."

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

"And most of the men, probably." He slipped his arms around her and rested his chin on her hair. "I'd be worried for my safety, though. People would be plotting to bump me off and take my place."

Greg showed up, looking woeful. "Something came up?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Angel needs my help," Isabel said. "And I owe him one. So off to LA I go. I'm sorry."

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

Greg bit his lip, stepping in and kicking the door behind him. "What kind of help?"

After everyone else that might stop by...

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Dreamwalking. There's a demon but before he can kill it, I'll need to dreamwalk it, or the victim, I'm not sure yet. I'll find out the details when I get there." She stepped closer to Greg, reaching out to rest a hand on his arm. "I'll be fine. Angel will look out for me."

Greg still looked stubborn. "He better. And other people, too. One guy isn't enough to watch your back against a...demon."

"Trust me, I won't in any danger. Dreamwalking is perfectly safe," she explained. "It might be scary, but someone's dreams can't hurt me."

Before Greg, of course

After hearing Isabel's message, Peter stopped by Isabel's room to check up on her.

"Hey. No alien planets, right?"

"Technically it's a bit of a grey area," Isabel laughed. "I'm going to LA."

Re: Before Greg, of course

"Close, but not quite the same thing," Peter said, walking into the room and taking a seat. "Gonna try to make it as a Hollywood supastar?" He posed dramatically to emphasize that last word.

"Or is this something less fun that I probably shouldn't be mocking the way I am?"

"I heard American Idiot was having auditions. I thought I'd try out." Isabel pushed her bag to the side and took a seat. "I'm not sure how serious it's going to be. Angel called. He said he needs my help. There's some sort of dream demon or something he has to stop. It looks like I'll be doing some dreamwalking."

Re: Before Greg, of course

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"Oh, that sounds like fun and a half," Peter said. "Don't get yourself hurt fighting the demon. If you do that, then I'll be sad, and Greg will be sad, and I'll have to deal with Greg being sad while I'm sad and that won't end well because he's a mild handful even when he's boring."

Re: Before Greg, of course

"I'm strictly back-up," Isabel promised. "You know Angel, he's got that whole hero thing going for him. I'll dreamwalk, he'll kill the demon, then we'll go to dinner." She laughed, "A mild handful? That's a mild understatement. Has he told you about the ball pit?"

Parker knocked on the door after an afternoon working on photography and going to the gun range. "Hey, what's up? What's Wings need you for?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Dreamwalking believe it or not," Isabel said. "Bel's going to bring me out in the morning."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Dreamwalking *him*? Oh, I can't think that's a good idea. Are you sure about this?" Parker was frowning and shaking her head. "You have no idea what could be in his head, after all this time..."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I've dreamwalked Angel before," Isabel admitted with a shrug. "Back when he was poisoned. But I don't think I'll be dreamwalking him. He mentioned some dream demon."

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Dream *demon*?" Parker sighed, watching Isabel. "At least Angel's there for back-up. But you can guess that I find this less than thrilling." She kicked the bed. "You'll be careful?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I'll do my thing, Angel will do his thing, which apparently involves a sword, we'll go for dinner, I'll annoy Logan and then I'll be home," she said with a smile. "I promise I'll be very, very careful."
