Room 406, afternoon into evening

[izzyalienqueen]

Isabel has not been having the best time of it the last week or so. There'd been the horrendous trip to LA, coming back to find out that Jack was in trouble, and then fighting with Greg. The only thing that could make things worse would be a call from Max with more of his particular brand of stupidity.

Too keyed up to even attempt sleep, Isabel sat on her bed and floated the nerf balls from the day at the beach with Cedric and Jack through the air in a complicated pattern. It was easier to focus on that then think about how closely the argument she had with Greg paralleled why everyone was mad at Jack.

The door was open.

"Good call. Although I can attest to the fact that heels hurt when you're kicked with them, too," Peter said. "A lot. But only ninjas should try that."

"Oh I'm well aware of the power of a spiked heel to the instep," she said with a wicked grin. "I dated a football player back in Roswell once."

"They're dangerous tools that I'm glad I've only had to deal with a couple times in violent circumstances," Peter said.

"Hopefully those circumstances didn't involve trying to cop a feel in a dark corner," Isabel said, rolling her eyes. "Unless you have an inner jerk that I haven't met before."

"Nope. That was the aforementioned ninja," Peter said. "She was an assassin."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Any relation to our Ninja?" she asked. "Perhaps they were classmates at Ninja School?"

"Pretty sure that's not the case," Peter said. "She's in color. On the other hand, she does dress like a hooker, so you never know."

"Why is it none of the ninjas in the movies dress like that?" she asked. "How can you be stealthy if you're showing cleavage?"

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"Lots of practice," Peter said.

Isabel raised an eyebrow. "And you know this how?"

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"Ninjas have to practice to be ninjas," Peter said. "Not just anybody can be a ninja. It stands to reason that they'd have to work on the stealthiness of their cleavage as well."

"Okay," Isabel said slowly. "You have just given me mental images that I never, ever thought that I'd have. Brain bleach please."

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"Stands to reason," Peter said, laughing a little. "And I'm all out of brain bleach, sorry."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Now that's just cruel," she laughed. "Traumatize me with scary images and not have a way to get rid of them. That's against the BFF code!"

"My copy of the handbook must be out of date," Peter said. "There's nothing about brain bleach listed in it."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"It was added in the last revision. I'll have to get a copy for you," Isabel chuckled. "But seriously? Thank you. I needed this."

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"I just do what I can to help," Peter said, standing up. "Thank you for the water."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Any time," she smiled. "Don't be a stranger."

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"You just want to be able to take any candy I bring over," Peter said, walking to the door. "You'll see me around, just like always."

"I'm a slave to my sweet tooth," Isabel laughed. "Bye Peter!" she called as he left the room.
