Room 417, Monday after fifth period

[fates_jaye]

Jaye's spent about two weeks not wanting much to do with people. However, Jack is the best thing ever, and Jaye's even managed to start messing with people again.

Also there was the hellish TWELVE FREAKING HOUR LONG day at work, and now she's trying to come up with ways she can pay King Dork back for being nice to him.

Look, the door is open and everything.

"You'd love being in Roswell during the Crash Festival then. Tweaking the conspiracy freaks was a townwide past-time." Isabel laughed softly, "Liz would pull out some obscure black and white picture of something alien looking and show it to the people she was waiting on, and then spin this tale about how her grandfather took the picture before the military showed up. She got a whole new perspective on things once she found out the truth."

[fates_jaye]

"I started out with new perspective, can I mess with the conspiracy theorists now?" Jaye asks.

"Oh absolutely," Isabel laughed. "Although I'd rather see you mess with Max. I think that would be highly entertaining. He can be a little uptight."

[fates_jaye]

Jaye nods emphatically. "I can do that. It'll be fun. I'll even allow videotaping."

"Oh perfect! That way I can rewatch and enjoy when he's being particularly stupid. Which is actually fairly often." She rolled her eyes, "We're only just starting to speak again after his last bout of stupidity.

[fates_jaye]

"Uh oh. What'd he do?" she asks.

"Armed robbery," Isabel said with mock cheer. "Just the thing to do when you're trying to keep a low profile."

[fates_jaye]

"Okay, when I say that's a dumb move? That's kind of impressively dumb. What'd he get, like ten years and probation or something?" Not that Jaye knows what the sentence for armed robbery is, but she can pretend.

"Fortunately he got off scot-free. The armed robbery was only an excuse to try and get in to where he thought the government had hidden the ship we crashed in," Isabel explained. "Somehow he managed to talk his way out of it. But it still caused problems, because he's always been a good kid. My folks didn't understand why he did it."

[fates_jaye]

"He didn't tell them?" she asks. Pot, meet kettle.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"We've never told them. As far as they know we're two traumatized kids that got abandoned in the desert," she said quietly. "I've wanted to tell them, but I've been outvoted."

[fates_jaye]

"Oh," she says. "Well, no offense, but he doesn't seem to be one of the world's great thinkers."

Isabel snorted, "You think? And the thing of it is? When we were on Antar? He was the king. My mind boggles at times."

[fates_jaye]

Jaye thinks about this for a second, and says, "Doesn't surprise me, kind of. Did he at least have a good Cabinet?"

"Unfortunately I can't say. We don't have the memories of our previous lives," she said. "A side effect of the crash I guess."

[fates_jaye]

"Okay, then I'm gonna pretend he did, because then I'll be able to sleep at night," she says. Which, she would be able to, but then she'd be coming up with stories about political intrigue until she got bored and fell asleep.

"I've been pretending the same thing myself. Trust me," Isabel said, shaking her head. "But enough about Max, he makes my head hurt. What do you think of all the new people?"

[fates_jaye]

"Haven't met a lot," she says honestly. "Carmela and Chad are cool, Evie's fun to mess with, Ray's weird, Luke's... not a bad kid, actually, I taught Pete how to use a phone... I need to get out more."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Same here, Teddy, Billy, Carmela, Door, Evie, Luke," she said with a sad smile. "I was too busy with goodbyes to really pay attention to the new people. I'll have to change that."

[fates_jaye]

"...I actually forgot Seely who hit on me," she says, frowning. "Yeah, after hearing about Pantsless Friday, I'm thinking something has to change like woah."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I met him very, very briefly. But he made an impression on Parker," Isabel snickered. "Pantsless Friday was fun, even if I kept my clothes on. But I still prefer shirtless Friday instead."

[fates_jaye]

"I miss Seahorse," Jaye says, actually not randomly.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"You were surrounded by the pretty," she agreed. "You and Sam were quite lucky."

[fates_jaye]

"It definitely could have been worse," says Jaye. She kind of doubts this kind of thing could happen again, but still, it was fun.

"Scrawny guys with warts and greasy hair perhaps?" Isabel looked down at the posters, "But I guess I'd better go be a good minion and get these up."

[fates_jaye]

"Thus proving there are such things as good minions," Jaye grins. "Have fun."

"Tons," she said, heading out the door.
