Room 417, Monday night

[fates_jaye]

Jaye's happy enough to have her toaster back. Even if it does have a face. It's on her desk, nice and silent, while she doodles a plan for world domination in her notebook.

No, seriously. She can doodle. It's not like she's gonna do anything about it. It's just a plan for world domination through slacking anyway.


[Door's open!]

"It talked to me first!" Rory said, pointing at the toaster.

[fates_jaye]

Jaye glares at the toaster. "Did you talk to Rory?" she demands.

[fates_jaye]

The toaster ignores Jaye.

And asks Rory, "How's your day been?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Fine," Rory said, blinking. She turned to Jaye. "Why is your toaster talking to me?"

[fates_jaye]

"I... don't know. Toasters shouldn't talk," she says. "But seriously? You hear it talking?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Uh huh," Rory said, nodding. "It asked me how my day was."

[fates_jaye]

"It didn't... tell you to do anything when I wasn't listening, did it?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory shook her head. "It's being very pleasant."

[fates_jaye]

Jaye glares at the toaster. "Oh, sure, you're plesant to her," she hisses.

And ignoring it, she says, "So yeah, crazy family. Yeah."

"How are they crazy?" Rory asked, eyeing the toaster.

[fates_jaye]

"They're nuts," she says. "I don't know. They just are. Don't encourage the toaster. They're this close to Stepford. Only with a housekeeper."

"...okay, why did you come to Fandom, then?" Rory asked.

[fates_jaye]

"Because... I kinda..." Got arrested once or twice because of my psychosis sounds bad, so she says, "My parents decided I was falling in with a bad crowd. My sister thinks you're all juvenile delinquents."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Well, good," Rory said. "Because we totally are. Especially me."

[fates_jaye]

"I really don't know how you're allowed to walk the streets."

"I have one of those ankle bracelet thingies," Rory said seriously, pointing to her totally bare ankle. "Anyway. What do you want to be when you grow up?"

[fates_jaye]

She shrugs. "Dunno. Who said I have to grow up?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Um, society."

[fates_jaye]

"Eh," she says. "Society says a lotta stuff."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Okay, so no idea?" Rory asked. "Okay, who would you say is your best friend?"

[fates_jaye]

"My friend Mahandra," she says immediately. "She's a good balance to the crazy family."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Ah, so she doesn't talk to your purse?" Rory asked.

[fates_jaye]

"...No," says Jaye. "She would tell you I don't talk to my purse. Don't make me get the phone."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"I'm good. So," she leaned forward with her elbows on her knees, "what makes you special?"

[fates_jaye]

"I'm not special," Jaye answers evenly.
