MCA #6- Tuesday early morning

The nice thing about beautiful warm weather was that it allowed you to do things like sleep with the windows open.

The bad thing about sudden freezing temperatures and snow was that it could wake you up from a dead sleep because you'd slept with your windows open.

Which was how Jaina woke up today. Well, that and the sound of wind that she initially thought she dreamed. After a sleepy moment of trying to convince herself that if she just maybe tucked her blankets around her like a cocoon she'd be warm again, she got up to close the window... and looked out to see a blizzard outside. Grumbling to herself and thoroughly annoyed that now she had to deal with an apartment that was much colder than it should be, she figured finding warmer clothes to sleep in might be a good idea. Except for how when she turned on the light, nothing happened. She tried flipping another switch to make sure it wasn't something like a burnt-out bulb, and no, the power was just out.

"Oh, kriff you too, Fandom," she muttered in annoyance, making her way to her closet in the dark. Luckily she was still really good at that. And now she was cold and awake too early and annoyed and wondering how far the power outage went in case it affected her training today. (You have your priorities, she has hers.)


[Mostly establishy, though can be open if anyone has a reason to be there.]

And that would be a very cold and confused Shelley rapidly knocking in time with her chattering teeth on Jaina's door.

"Oh, god, I was hoping you might have power! I was going to ask if you knew where the breaker box thingy is."

She had a blanket wrapped around her, giant fuzzy bunny slippers sticking out from the bottom. "Do you have candles?" she asked, hopefully.

Shelley shuffled after her. "A glowrod, huh? Like the kind of things they use in nightclubs? Green and shiny?"

Shelley let the tightly wrapped blanket fall loose for a moment so she could grab the candles. "Oh, matches! I don't think I have any of those either." It was times like this when she realized just how much she missed having Dimitri around.

"You don't happen to have a hot guy hidden away somewhere I could take back for some snuggling, do you?" she asked, with a laugh.

"Well, if you want to hang out, we could bundle up on the couch together, maybe watch a movie or something!" Shelley suggested, oblivious to any tension and obviously forgetting some of the ramifications of being without electricity.

"Oh, yeah." Shelley thought for a moment. "We could play a game or take Cosmo quizzes or something," she offered. "I've got back issues for the entire year."

"Well, I'm really not all that tired. I've gotten to be much more of an early-bird lately," she commented. "But I guess we could try to take a nap if that's what you're in the mood for. How big is your couch?" She smiled at Jaina, and bounced lightly in place to try and generate a little extra body heat.

"It's just so cold there," she said. Not that it was any warmer here. "And it just feels empty." Yes, she was lonely. And yes, her bottom lip did stick out just a little.

"Awesome!" Shelley attempted to clap, but really just brought two parts of the blanket together for some barely audible thumping. "What are you doing outside? Going for a jog? I thought about that, but not in this cold."

Shelley shuffled over to the couch and let herself fall into it. "That sounds exciting," Shelley lied. "Is your grandfather just coming in for a visit?"

"I don't think I have," she said, giving it some serious thought. "Wait, does he work at the bar and have like bushy eyebrows that you like wanna pluck but then realize they're actually kind of hot looking on him? No, wait," she corrected herself, "you said he's your grandfather and this guy is young. Never mind."

She flopped about, getting more comfortable.

"Okay, I don't really remember his name," she admitted, "but we totally hooked up. I should have done my trick to remember his name, but I just didn't."

She closed her eyes, trying to picture the night. "Um, maybe it was Buck. Yeah, Buck. I think."

"Chuck!" she agreed, snapping her fingers (not that it made much noise under the blanket). "Eyes are really one of the first things I notice about guys," she said. "They're like the nipples of the face, and the eyebrows are just right there with them."
