Common Room: To us, it is The Beast... ((OPEN))

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 1:14 am

Regan was hanging around the common room again, watching terrible TV shows and infomercials. The worse they were, the more she seemed to be enjoying herself.

Steve had been incredibly scarce since he ran out of the cafeteria. He now emerged into the common room in jeans and a black t-shirt, looking like he's poorly hiding being depressed.

Crap. Regan.

He attempted to sneak past. He wasn't stealthy.

"Hey, muscle head," Regan says, "How've you been?"

"Had any nightmares recently?"

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 7:59 pm

Shit.

"Oh, hey Regan. No, no more than usual."

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:05 pm

"Too bad," Regan says, "Your last one sounded like a lot of fun."

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:12 pm

"No. It wasn't," he said harshly.

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:18 pm

"What's wrong, Stevey?" Regan says, "A little torture doesn't turn your engine?"

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:25 pm

"I'm not some twisted masochist, no," he answered defensively.

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:27 pm

"Well, that's good," Regan says, "It would've been embarrassing if you broadcast your fantasies to everyone. Instead of just your fucked up astronaut phobia."

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:33 pm

He flushed in embarrassment.

"You don't know what you're talking about."

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:35 pm

"Your right, I don't," Regan says, "So I'm gonna make stuff up instead."

"Like you were molested by Buzz Aldrin."

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:42 pm

"Fuck you," he spat.

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:44 pm

"Yeah, somehow I get the feeling I'm not really your flavor," Regan says, "If you catch my drift."

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:55 pm

"Yeah, I'm not into dead chicks."

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 8:59 pm

"Yeah, that's a real disappointment," Regan says, "I'm not sure how I'll ever recover from learning that fact."

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 9:05 pm

"I sure you're just dying inside."

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 9:07 pm

"See, you get me," Regan says, "Like you can read my mind."

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 9:18 pm

"Like I would touch your mind," he smirked halfheartedly.

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 9:21 pm

"Why not? Afraid of what's in there?"

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 9:25 pm

"Of what I'd catch maybe."

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 9:29 pm

"Well, that's the nice thing about the dead," Regan says, "Very few diseases."

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 10:53 am

"Just bacteria and worms and this conversation has taken a very dark turn."

by **Regan Rourke** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 11:11 am

"I blame your sick and twisted perversions."

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 1:56 pm

"You don't know a damn thing about me."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 2:30 pm

Mercy wanders into the common room, earbuds trailing to her phone. She looks up from the phone and spots Steve, and Regan. Wrinkling her nose at the ghost, she turns away from Regan and pops the earbuds out.

She tries a half-hearted smile at Steve. "So uh... I wanted to say that um... sorry for yelling at you."

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 2:40 pm

"Thanks..." he responded, "I... really wasn't having a good power morning."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 2:43 pm

"Yeah, I know how that is. Um, anyway, I didn't mean to interrupt whatever." She motions at Regan. "Just wanted to say."

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 3:01 pm

"You interrupting this conversation is the best thing to happen to me all day."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 3:06 pm

"Oh, it's just her usual sad harassment then?"

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 5:02 pm

"Does she say anything that isn't?"

by **Regan Rourke** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 5:06 pm

"Only to people who deserve it."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 5:13 pm

Mercy shakes her head pityingly at Regan.

"Anyway, um... Steve, right? What're you up to?"

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 5:21 pm

Being depressed.

"Right," he nodded, "I'm not up to anything really, aside from trying to keep my thoughts in my own head."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 5:26 pm

"Hmmm. I'd suggest something but I'm not really sure what there is to do around here. And I don't want to watch TV with dead and bitchy over there."

by **Regan Rourke** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 5:37 pm

"It'll be very hard for me to be without you," Regan says, "Somehow I'll persevere though."

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 5:46 pm

"The Danger Room maybe?"

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 6:42 pm

"Uh sure! I've never been in a Danger Room."

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 7:35 pm

"I've only been in it for power control class. It was pretty cool."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 7:48 pm

"What exactly can it do anyway? It simulates an environment or something?"

She chuckles. "I guess you could just show me. Unless we have to sign up to use it or something?"

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Feb 16, 2013 7:52 pm

"I don't think so. Maybe if it's occupied or something."
