Room 406, Evening

[izzyalienqueen]

Despite the afternoon's silliness with Dawn and Jack, when evening rolled around Isabel really wasn't in the mood for dealing with people and crowded common rooms. There were too many thoughts going through her head. Worries about what was happening in a room down the hall, worries about why Jack reacted the way he did.

It was easier to pull inward. Which was why Isabel was sitting on the bed in her room attempting to figure out a sudoku puzzle.

Isabel picked up the paper tentatively. It was Fandom after all, and you could never be too careful. Then she opened it, laughed, and opened the door. "Hey!"

Peter pointed both thumbs at himself and said, "This guy!"

"No! Really?" she asked with mock amazement. "Come in, I have brownies!"

"Not only does my plan work, but I get brownies," Peter said, walking in. "It's a good night."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"A very good night," Isabel agreed. "Are you avoiding the invasion of newbies as well?"

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"Nah. The only thing I'm avoiding is my new room," Peter said.

"New room?" she asked, surprised. "Did Greg finally mix one foul smelling chemical concoction too many?"

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"No, it actually came as a complete surprise to me," Peter said. "Then I checked out my new room and in the desk there was a note from Charlie. He signed me up for a room transfer."

"Oh that's wicked," Isabel chuckled. "I fear the payback." She pulled back the foil covering the brownies. "Brownie?"

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"No payback. He got a free prank for his birthday. He left the card I gave him in the drawer, too," Peter said. "My hands are tied. But they're loose enough to take a brownie." He did so.

""Brownies are good. Dawn and I baked a bunch for Jack today. Then we went down and made animal noises at him," she grinned. "He was amused."

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"What kind of animals?" Peter asked curiously. He then took a bite out of his brownie. "These're good."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Mostly barnyard animals. Though Jack did do a passble impression of a coyote at one point," Isabel replied. "There were also alien noises and antennae."

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"What sound does antennae make?" Peter joked.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"No, the antennae were glittery. Dawn and I did a lot of yip-yiping."

"Did you happen to hit your head's recently?" Petter asked. He was far too amused by this.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Nope, we just decided we needed to do this," Isabel said innocently.

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"Ah, impulsive insanity," Peter said. "I know that well."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Not so implusive, but Isabel wasn't about to break Jack's confidences. "It worked out well. We laughed a lot."

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"Good," Peter said. "I've always felt that there needs to be more laughter around here. Planned laughter, that is."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"That might call for another game night," she pointed out.

[peter--parker.livejournal.com]

"We never got that rolling last semester, did we?" Peter asked. "Have any ideas for games?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"With so many new people we can probably redo them if we get really desperate. But it would be nice to do something new. Which is my way of saying, no I don't I have a clue," Isabel shrugged.

"We could try UNO with all of those crazy options about when a certain card is played you switch hands," Peter said. "I don't think that would be too crazy."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I'm game for anything we can work out reasonable RP rules for." The brownies were calling her name so she took one, breaking off a piece. "I wonder how many decks of cards will need with all the new people."
