case 10 | action, dorms (closed to Aang and Hope)

[bratbeyond.livejournal.com]

[Damian can tolerate a lot when it comes to his best friend. He can tolerate Aang's strange euphemisms (seriously, monkey feathers isn't impolite!), he can tolerate Aang's too-cheerful attitude, and most importantly, he can tolerate Aang's "no killing. EVER" policy towards just about everything they encountered in the Training Center.

But what he can't tolerate? Is an incredibly mopey Aang that hasn't bothered to leave his bedroom. Even the Instructors' houseplants had more energy than this! With a sigh, Damian throws a pillow in Aang's general direction and waves a finger accusingly:]

For the last time, stop moping around! The only thing you're going to lose in here is your sanity... and quite possibly mine too.

[SIGH.] You zift! Seize the slagging day already!

[Although he doesn't suspect it, Damian feels like he's talking to a brick wall.]

[Glances at Aang as he pours his own hot chocolate and takes a sip. Mmm, it's really good, even without marshmallows!]

Uhh... no idea. I didn't plan anything.

[Nothing beyond patrols, anyways, but he could always slack off on those.]

[Aang shrugs and tastes his drink as well. He hadn't really been in a planning mood lately, content to just sulk in Damian's room.] Me neither.

LATE DX

Ah. Right...

[Well. That hadn't been the conversation starter Hope had hoped. It'd be.]

Maybe we should do something? I mean if you guys don't have homework.

No worries! <3

[bratbeyond.livejournal.com]

Fine by me. [He hasn't finished some of his homework, but that's all keeping with his "just barely passing class" plan.] Umm... I think I still have some card games if you wanna learn how to play those.

[monkingaround.livejournal.com]

Yeah, card games are fun. [Despite the piles of homework he has, he's not intending to do any of it.]

I'm sorry guys. Feel free to

[noras-boy.livejournal.com]

Right. We can play cards!

[Awwww. Hope is the only goody two shoes!]

No worries! ♥

[bratbeyond.livejournal.com]

[Apparently so. ;; Join the not-doing-homework club, roomie!]

Excellent! [runs into his room and comes back with two decks of cards: one standard 52-card deck for just about everything and one Uno deck.] So what do you wanna play? I'm game for anything.

it's my turn to apologize

[monkingaround.livejournal.com]

We could play Slaps? [It's a game Aang picked up from around the school since his world didn't exactly have card games. He still needs practice, though.] If you know it.

[noras-boy.livejournal.com]

We could play Crazy Chocobo Tail?

[Hope offers, not thinking that the other off worlders might not know what Nemo's made up card game he's going to base off of Crazy eights.]

[bratbeyond.livejournal.com]

[Damian shrugs at both, though he has to give Hope a somewhat weird look...] Crazy Chocobo Tail?

I'm not sure what that is, but I know Slaps. We can try both?

[monkingaround.livejournal.com]

I don't know that one, either, sorry. But we can do that.

[noras-boy.livejournal.com]

What's Slaps?

[Hope asked curiously.]

We can play that definitely.

[bratbeyond.livejournal.com]

It's a card game some of the kids play around here. How about Hope shows us how to play his game and then we'll show him ours?

[Damian sets aside the Uno deck and starts shuffling the standard deck.] It's not like we've got anything better to do, right? [Homework <<< card games. It's a fact of life.]
