Room 417, Sunday afternoon

[fates_jaye]

Jaye picks up the phone.



"Hey," Mahandra greets her.

"You're too far away for an air hug, so I'm sending off a phone hug," Jaye greets her back.

Mahandra pauses. "Um. What?"

"I've been made wanting to hug my BFF," she explain.

"Awww," she says. "That's nice. Weird, but nice. So how goes it in the land of weird?"

"It's fun," answers Jaye, sprawling onto her bed. "Traumatized a teacher."

"And on your summer vacation, too. How productive!" Mahandra says. "What the hell."

Jaye almost giggles, because the last time she heard Mahandra say that, she was wee. And teaching it to everyone else in school. "I almost feel bad for her."

"Oh my god."

"I said almost. Oh, hey. If you're going to call, not that you ever do-"

"Hey."

"-call my cell, because we're moving to cabins for a week. Unfortunately just a week."

"Cabins?"

"Summer camp."

"But you already have dorms."

"SH, OKAY, I AM ROOMING WITH HOT GUYS."

Mahandra pauses. "Now you have to elaboratinate."

Jaye raises her eyebrows.

"Forget I said that."

"Make me."

"Bitch."

"Yuh huh. I'm in with Alec-"

"Guy you hooked up with," Mahandra recalls.

"Yeah, and Dean who looks like him. Okay, he's cute, shut up."

"Hussy."

"No no no. Just talking. I've dated two guys and had one random hookup, no hussiness."

"Don't care."

"Bite me. And then there's his brother Cute Sam."

"His name's Cute Sam?"

"Is now."

"You're the only girl?"

"Shhhh. On the other side there's D'Anna and Pretty Sam, and Cedric who is British-"

"Ooh."

"Cute, too."

"Ooh."

"And Jack. Okay, in retrospect, the first thing I said to him should not have been 'dirty'. At least he doesn't have a doppleganger."

Mahandra pauses. "What?"

"I keep hooking up with guys who have a doppleganger. Archie looks like Lee, Cam looks like John, Alec looks like Dean. It's a little disturbing."

"You need help."

"Do not."

"I will so call Dr. Ron for you."

"I'm taking away your phone hug," Jaye tells her.

"So you get to spend your summer flirting with boys," Mahandra summarizes.

"I'm planning on spending it being lazy and meeting the occasional new person. The rest is just a bonus. Well, and messing with King Dork."

Mahandra doesn't even question who King Dork is. "I'm still moving in with you."

"Do it," Jaye challenges. "My roommate graduated. I have a whole big double all to myself."

"I'll make arrangements," she says, though Jaye knows it's not going to happen. "It's boring here, Jaye."

"Sorry..." And she is.

"We need snark dates."

"I don't know what my TV watching schedule will be like for a while, but we should watch soap operas together when I do."

"Oh, you'd better call me for that."

"I will."

"I have to get going," Mahandra says. "Call me when you venture into the trampy place again?"

"Will do," says Jaye. "Later."

"Bye."




[Door, btw, totally open. Well, actually, it's closed, but metaphorically, it is open.]

"Hey," she says, sitting up. "No. Where did they put you?"

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"420," he answers. "Right down the hall with Dean Winchester. So, very close. As we'll be tomorrow."

[fates_jaye]

"Yeah, that's right, the cabins. I kinda forgot about that," Jaye totally lies.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Oh. You don't know who you're in a cabin with?" he asks/

[fates_jaye]

Jaye is a lying thing that lies. Like woah. "I didn't really pay attention," she says.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Oh. Me, Jack Harkness, Alec or Scooter, Dean Winchester, my current roommate, his brother Sam, Sam Carter, and a D'Anna Biers."

[fates_jaye]

Jaye loves this school, so, so much. "Oh. Sounds like a good group," she tells him.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Yes, I was quite pleased with the arrangment as well," he agrees. "Have you lived in a cabin setup before? I haven't."

[fates_jaye]

"Nope. It'll be totally new for me, too. A lot of people in close quarters," she notes.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Apparently so," he says. "You're not shy, are you?"

[fates_jaye]

"No, not much with the shy, no," she says. "Why, are you?"

Yes, she's making notes for Rory.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Not really," he answers. "I've nothing to really be shy about."

[fates_jaye]

"That's... really good."

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"You think so?" He grins, crossing his arms. "I'm sure a cabin of non shy people will be quite fun for all of us."

[fates_jaye]

"Oh, I think that's pretty much a guarantee."

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Are you already making plans?" Cedric asks, still grinning.

[fates_jaye]

"Not plans, no," she says. "Just... thinking ahead a little, you know, not planning."

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"What might you be thinking about, Jaye?" he asks.

[fates_jaye]

"...Things."

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Such as?" Cedric presses.

[fates_jaye]

"Oh, you know, just all the omg pretty, so what do you think of Fandom so far?" she says, totally kidding about that first part hahahahahaha.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"I'm enjoying it here," he says, and yes, he did hear that first part. "Sorry, but did you say the pretty?"

[fates_jaye]

"I'm sorry, what about pretty? Yes, there is a lot of pretty now that you mention it."

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Of course," he says, smiling. "And really, a good view makes all matters of academia that much easier, right?"

[fates_jaye]

"Definitely. Especially the Things to Do at the Beach class. I'm perfectly fine with that view. On academia, yes, that too."
