Room 406, evening

[izzyalienqueen]

After getting some reading done for US Government, Isabel switched over to the brain candy. She's up to chapter 12 of the Dora Robards book. The obnoxious jerk has shown his sweet side. Unfortunately he's been sent on a six month mission to Southeast Asia, leaving the heroine home to write long, mushy letters to him.

The door is open, and she's totally interruptable.

Krycek decided now was as good as anytime to find out if his Secret Sib hated him for completely spacing on anything past the first present. When he saw her door open, he knocked politely and waited, presents in a stack behind him in the hall.

Isabel looked up, shaking her head at the ridiculousness of the plot. Just get on a plane dammit. "Kry! Come on in. What's up?"

"Actually, I wanted to bring you the back-log of presents I owed you," he said ruefully. Krycek disappeared for a moment, then reappeared with three new boxes, neatly wrapped in simple blue paper. "Have somewhere you want me to put them?"

"Presents? For me? Really?" She sat up from where she was sprawled across the bed, sliding back up against the headboard so that there was plenty of room. "Right here!" she said patting the spot on the bed in front of her, "And sit down, please. This is unexpected."

"I completely spaced after the first present," he said, sitting down and placing the boxes between them. Krycek shrugged, vaguely sheepish. "So my apologies, but better late than never, right?"

"Please, the coffee basket was more then enough. I've been making coffee using my secret alien-fu everytime my roommate's not around." She reached out for the first package and opened it carefully. "This is perfect," she said, turning the survival kit over in her hands. "I've needed a few of the things in here already. I'm sure I'll need them again."

He smirked. "When I bought these, I had no idea if you even liked coffee. And good, I'm glad that'll actually be useful." Krycek sat back, making himself a little more comfortable as he watched her open the other gifts.

Isabel grinned and unwrapped the package that turned out to contain the lovely star light. "Oh this is pretty. Coffee is good, particularly given the late nights around here." She looked up, blinked several times and then laughed, "You do realize that someone has claimed you by writing 'Mine' across your forehead? How did I miss that, too distracted by presents I guess."

[ooc: *pats* No problem, my spouse just returned from a long trip so slow play is fine...]

"Have you met Jake Gavin? That's who has claimed me," he explained, somewhat resignedly. "Not that I object terribly, but it's not my fault Professor Skeeter has decided that I'm Callisto's one true love, whether either of us realizes it or not."

"I know Jake," Isabel said, as she reached for the final package. "We've crossed paths in the Perk a few times. You? And Callisto?" Laughing she unwrapped the coffee maker. "I haven't met the woman but I think I'm prepared to dislike her anyway just from hearing what everyone has to say. Oh, this is perfect. Thank you."

He smiled. "Score three out of three for me on the present-giving, I guess. And, yeah, Skeeter's not particularly pleasant, in the least endearing of ways."

"Actually four for four with the coffee basket. So go you! Let's not talk about Skeeter journalists make me nervous cause whoa secrets!" she said. "Fun stuff only. Are you guys going to the dance tomorrow?"

[krycek-rat.livejournal.com]

He blinked. "Dance? Oh. Valentine's Day dance? ...I actually don't know. Jake seems to like them though, so we'll probably at least show up. What about you?"

"It's a Student Council event. So I do have to be there for a bit. I'll be in the corner with the single people." She smiled, "It should be fun though."
