Room 417, Saturday late afternoon

[fates_jaye]

Jaye has had sugar, had a story, and had glitter. So... girl's a mess.

And her phone is ringing. She picks it up like she did before, greeing the other person with "What the hell!"

"Jaye?" Sharon says. "Are you okay? We've been trying to call you. Mahandra said something happened to you-"

"Bye!" says Jaye, and throws the phone down to hang up. The floppy bunny toy is much more interesting, and she plays with that, ignoring Sharon's voice from the not-hung-up phone.

"Hey Jaye." Maureen walked in and flopped down on the floor after she left Esme in her habitat to take a nap. "Who's on the phone?"

[fates_jaye]

"Sharon. She's a brat. I hanged up on her," she says. She can still hear Sharon. She cares not.

Maureen picks up the phone, and listens for a second, then says, "Hello, this is Maureen Parker speaking on Jaye Tyler's phone. Who is this?"

[fates_jaye]

There's a pause on the other end of the line. "This is her sister. What's going on over there? Is she babysitting one of the teenage delinquents' out-of-wedlock brats or something?"

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Maureen frowned. "What's out-of-wedlock? And we don't have a babysitter. Me and Jaye are talking to her bunny."

Rory toddled in and sat down on the floor with her thumb in her mouth, a big bag of assorted candy in one hand, George the Ewok in the other, and that copy of Anna Karenina under an arm.

"Hi hi. Anakin is a bananahead."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"You made a mess!" Rory declared.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Anakin made a bigger, bigger mess than me. Way bigger. SO big." Maureen raised her hands over her head. "And he started it!" She made a face. "I told Jarod on him."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"What did Jarod say?" Rory asked, eyes wide.

[fates_jaye]

"Hi, Rory, hiiiiii!" says Jaye.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Hi, hi, hi!" Rory said, holding out the bag. "Want some candy?"

[fates_jaye]

"Yay candy!" says Jaye, who is just not sticky enough. She takes some.

"I had french fries for lunch," she announced.

Xander and Bridge are coming away from room 416 where they just dropped off Jeremiah when Xander sees Jaye's open door and hears people.

Because he's totally polite, he yells, "HI JAYE AND PEOPLES!" when he barges in.

"Hi Lion-Girl and dude and Rory!" Bridge adds.

[fates_jaye]

"Hiiiiiiiiii!" Jaye tells them, waving.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"HI HI XANDER!" Maureen yells back right next to his face. "Hi, Bridgey," she says in a normal voice.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Hi Xandybridgey!" Rory yelled around her thumb.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Hi Rory!" Bridge says again.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"I got a owie!" Rory said woefully, pointing to her knee.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Uh-oh." Bridge says.

[soldtoarmenians]

"Hi, lotsa girls!"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"I'm a girl," Rory said, nodding. "S'why I'm prettier 'n you."

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander tilted his head at her. "Okay, S'fair. Boys aren't pretty. Boys are handsome."
