Lunch: The New Girl

by **Jane Doe** » Tue Oct 18, 2011 10:40 pm

Madison had assigned one of the grad students to show Jane around, but once the girl had been given a hot meal and sat down at a table the student excused themselves and wandered off to go talk with their friends.

Jane sat quietly, staring at the food on her tray.

((Better late than never!))

Tommy More sat down across the table from the new girl, acknowledging her with a nod.

Jane stared at Tommy without blinking.

by **Tommy More** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 8:56 pm

Tommy raised an eyebrow. "Something amiss, miss?"

by **Jane Doe** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 9:03 pm

Jane shakes her head. She doesn't stop staring at Tommy though.

by **Tommy More** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 9:03 pm

"Um...can I help you?"

by **Jane Doe** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 9:06 pm

Jane looks down for a moment as if she's considering the question before giving Tommy a questioning look, cocking her head to one side.

by **Tommy More** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 9:11 pm

"Help. Assist. Aid."

by **Jane Doe** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 9:15 pm

Jane nods.

by **Tommy More** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 9:19 pm

"You're already a better conversational partner than the last few people I've eaten with," he chortled.

by **Jane Doe** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 9:25 pm

Jane cocks her head to one side again, looking confused.

by **Tommy More** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 9:26 pm

"A joke. Making pleasant conversation.

You don't talk much, do you?"

by **Jane Doe** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 10:28 pm

Jane shakes her head, putting her hand on her throat.

by **Tommy More** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 11:10 pm

"Ah, say no more," Tommy said, chuckling at his little joke. "No need to worry."

by **Jane Doe** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 11:12 pm

Jane arches an eyebrow.

by **Tommy More** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 11:15 pm

"What? Like I said, you're more pleasant than the average lunchmate around these parts."

by **Jane Doe** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 11:18 pm

Jane glances around and then looks back quizzically.

by **Tommy More** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 12:58 am

"Others are...well, let's just say they aren't pleasant."

by **Jane Doe** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 12:59 am

Jane cocks her head to one side, listening intently.

by **Tommy More** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 1:37 am

"Oh, not to badmouth our fellow students or anything. Some just butt in where they are not wanted."

by **Jane Doe** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 1:45 am

Jane blinks, not really looking like she understands.

by **Tommy More** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 1:46 am

"Can you even understand a word I'm saying? Oh well, no matter."

by **Jane Doe** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 2:16 am

Jane frowns.

by **Tommy More** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 2:18 am

"Yes? No?"

by **Jane Doe** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 10:27 am

Jane nods and then after a pause shakes her head.

by **Tommy More** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 4:08 pm

"Curiouser and curiouser, said Alice."

He hrmmed.

"Yes yes no yes no no yes?"

by **Jane Doe** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 6:25 pm

Jane just looks confused now. On multiple levels.

by **Tommy More** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 1:52 am

"Just checking, that's all. Pay it no mind."

by **Jane Doe** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 2:04 am

Jane sighs, staring at her food glumly.

by **Tommy More** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 3:05 pm

"What's the matter, quiet-type?"

by **Jane Doe** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 4:40 pm

Jane gives Tommy an accusatory glare.

by **Tommy More** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 5:30 pm

"What?"

by **Jane Doe** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 7:36 pm

Jane looks frustrated and just ends up shaking her head.

by **Tommy More** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 11:50 pm

"I'm sorry. Does it bother you when I talk?"

by **Jane Doe** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 11:59 pm

Jane shakes her head.

by **Tommy More** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 12:08 am

"Alright, then."

by **Jane Doe** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 12:10 am

Jane watches Tommy, staring at him again.

by **Tommy More** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 12:13 am

"Is there something on my face?"

by **Jane Doe** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 12:14 am

Jane shakes her head.

by **Tommy More** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 12:40 am

"Something behind me?"
