Room 417, Friday afternoon

[fates_jaye]

Jaye had meant to leave her room. She did. She'd decided she'd seen far too much of America's Next Top Model and needed to leave, but she'd only managed to open the door before she decided she had to know who won the last cycle and whether anyone fell down on the runway.

And now she's stitting cross-legged on the bed, completely unable to leave the room. She's debating popcorn, but the commercial breaks aren't long enough.


[For those days when you're dying to play but just can't handle the CR. Door's open.]

"Drugs?" she asks, kind of wondering if she was right when she was talking to Pam about things being slipped into the water.

"Dreams," Peter said. "Though my brother would probably say it's a small difference."

[fates_jaye]

When the commercial ends, she waves him over. "It's look at the TV time now. Okay, new rule. No jumping off things without a bungee cord or helium balloons attached to you, 'kay?"

Peter took a seat on the floor. "I pomiesd not to try it again this week. Otherwise Sam won't take me out on her swoop bike."

[fates_jaye]

"Good boy," she says. "Also those things are terrifying."

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"The bike? Really?"

[fates_jaye]

"We had to ride them in a summer class. They're icky and bad but I'm sure Sam's is better," she says quickly.

"Think it'd get me in trouble if I held on tight?" Peter asked.

[fates_jaye]

"As long as you are conscious of where your hands are, you'll probably be fine," she assures him. "But she might be able to take you, so keep it in mind."

"I don't want to mess up my chance at having a ride on a swoop bike," Peter said. "I'll try to behave myself."

[fates_jaye]

"Good Steve. Been meeting all the freaky people?" Jaye asks, frowning at the TV. "Who are less scary than some of these girls?"

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"Everybody's been really nice so far," Peter said. "The stories are out there but I like it." He paused. "Is that girl wearing a diaper? On purpose?"

[fates_jaye]

"You know, with her... I'm not sure if they put it on her or if she put it on herself," Jaye says, making a face.

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"I'm not sure which is scarier," Peter said. "Because either way it's someone wearing a diaper who doesn't have to for medical reasons."

[fates_jaye]

"I dunno, is being generally retarded a medical reason?"

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"Pretty sure it is," Peter said. "Though did they say that's what she had?"

[fates_jaye]

"I haven't been listening too closely," Jaye admits. "It gets kind of scary when they talk."

"I can't tell if that one has an accent or if she's just drunk all the time," Peter said. "I have the same problem with Sean Connery."

[fates_jaye]

"Yeah, but between the old guy or the hot young girl, I still think it works better for him."

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"It took me years before I found out he's got a speech impediment," Peter said. "I always thought it was the brogue."

[fates_jaye]

She stares at him with wide eyes. "Seriously? I thought it was the accent, too."

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"He's got like a lisp or something too," Peter said.

[fates_jaye]

"Huh," she says, considering this. "Got any more weird factoids where that came from?"

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

Peter frowned as he saw something on the screen. "That 'Roach Bedazzler' is apparently a job?"

[fates_jaye]

"Okay, of all the jobs I could possibly have in my life? That's like, the lowest on my priority list. Because ew." She might be shuddering.
