Room 313, early Saturday morning

[solo_sword]

After being dropped off at the causeway, Jaina hadn't been entirely sure what to do with herself. Not wanting to go straight for the cabins just yet, she instead returned to her room at the dorms. Everything felt different here now. She knew the room, but it felt like someone else's, even if she recognized everything in it.

And against her better judgment, she focused on that one presence she knew to look for, touching lightly on him and sending along an image of where she was, assuming he would take that as a hint to find her. This wasn't a conversation for the cabins, with all their lack of privacy and walls.

In the meanwhile, if anyone asked, she was packing. What she was doing was sort of trading things out, replacing one move with another, and maybe surreptitiously packing some things away.

He smiled and bumped her shoulder.

Jaina smiled a little, looking up at him. "So we're okay?"

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"We're okay," John agreed.

"I guess I should be asking if you want to show me which cabin we're in," she said, though it may have been clear that she didn't want to go.

"Well, I have to warn you that it has one of the stupidest names possible," John said. Because the name was so helpful when he didn't want to be in a cabin anyway.

"Is it better than the Chupacabra one that had people talking to me about goatsuckers for two weeks?"

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"You were a goatsucker?" John snickered. "Now you're an Adorable Panda, which might just be a step up."

[solo_sword]

Jaina paused. "Whoever comes up with these hates us."

"It would be worse if we turned into pandas just because we'd lived there," John decided.

[solo_sword]

Her eyes widened. "Do not jinx us. If I turn into a panda..."

"I'll feed you bamboo," he promised.

[solo_sword]

She just shook her head at him before standing. "Okay. Show me where we're going before I thwap you."

"No hitting or I won't loan you a pillow," he told her, rising and moving to leave.

[solo_sword]

"...Did you bring yours with you?" she wondered.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

He thought this was rather a natural assumption. "Am I expected to sleep there?"

[solo_sword]

"I won't hit," she decided.
