Luke's Diner; Friday [ 02/06 ].

He wasn't sick anymore, so Cal was thinking he had a right to be in a better mood today. Unfortunately, though, he wasn't. It wasn't notably bad or terrible, just a little blah and nothing that he could really seem to easily get out of. He tried to make himself some saganaki (lighting things on fire; a surefire mood picker-upper), but, after yesterday's history class, the attempt only made his mood worse. So now, he wasn't only feeling dejected, he was feeling a little depressed and missing his father.

Well, at least he had those Rumor Gal books that Claire got him for his birthday.

Talk to Cal -- 02/06.

Just don't expect the most cheery service ever. Although, if you were expecting that, what are you doing here on Cal's shift, anyway?

Claire hadn't seen Cal outside class in almost a week.

It had been a weird week, but here she was, on a stool in the diner and looking ... well, somewhat cheerful. For Claire.

"Hey," she greeted. "Are you still deathly ill?"

Cal shook his head. "Nope. Plague-free since Wednesday. In a manner of speaking, anyway."

He sighed; he didn't want to, but he couldn't stop it.

"How've you been?"

"Kinda mixed?" she offered, leaning her chin on her palm. "My brother wins the idiot award for, like, the month, but other than that and the stupid hat things have been okay. You?"

"I'm pretty sure," Cal said, a little carefully, "Amber's never going to talk to me again and, if it is, it'll be accompanied with a punch to the face." But he shrugged; he still stood firmly on the fact that there was nothing he said he didn't believe and would stand by. "What did your brother do?"

"Got a girl pregnant. Not the one he's engaged to," Claire said. "What did you do to Amber?"

She wasn't exactly happy they were fighting, and she hated the little squirm of joy that moved through her. But she'd never really gotten over her jealousy of Amber, so the guilty elation was there anyhow.

Dinah came by much later in the day than usual, and headed straight for her place at the counter. "Hi! You didn't sell all the baklava yet, did you?" She sat down on the stool and gave one spin before coming to rest. "You don't look like a zombie poster any more."

"Hey, neither do you," Cal said, because it felt good to quip again without having to fear a million other idiotic things following it. "And of course I saved some for you. Even if you didn't show up, then that would mean I could just eat it instead."

"Good plan, strategy, thinking ahead," Dinah said, grinning and twisting a little, then sitting back to practice her Guy Mode. Arms crossed. "Will you not take it wrong if I say I'm glad I didn't talk to you during rehearsal? I mean, you saw how I was when we were practicing."

Bibble Girl times twenty.

"I was still half-dead," Cal said, "so I guess I don't blame you, but now you've got me wondering if there's something you would have said that you wouldn't wanted to have said."

"I don't know what I would have said. That's part of what had me freaked out." Aside probably from: hi, you're cute, and probably smarter than me, and I know you have a girlfriend. But if you ever don't.... "I kind of 'fessed up to a crush on Leto. Which, well, he knew. So." She shrugged, only looking mildly embarrassed now. "Could have been worse, I guess."

"What, nothing on fire?" Dōjima asked, checking out the menu. "Stephanides, I'm hurt. Shattered. I think you've dashed all my hopes and dreams."

Re: Talk to Cal -- 02/06.

"Mission accomplished!" Cal stated with a slight grin, before it turned into an expression more apologetic. "Sorry, Dōjima. Next week, I promise. This week, though, I'm not really feeling it."

Re: Talk to Cal -- 02/06.

[identity profile] dojima-hime.livejournal.com 2009-02-07 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
"Not feeling it?" She looked him over, hands on hips. "Who are you, Pod Person, and what have you done with Cal?"

"Fine, fine, you found me out," Cal waved a hand, "I'm actually Lord Xebenrik from the planet Zorbinon, and, out of all the bodies on this island I could have possibly taken over to start my destruction of Earth, I chose the skinny Greek kid with doofy hair."

Re: Talk to Cal -- 02/06.

"Yeah, well, you chose good, dread lord whatever. No one ever suspects the skinny ones," she replied, plopping down on a seat. "Can I order a baklava and a soda, or is that not part of your plans for world domination?"

Mod your Service -- 02/06.

Johnny stopped in to pick up lunch for Savannah and himself. His impatience was obvious.

Joan stopped in to grab a milkshake. She was still trying to puzzle out the message she got the day before and assumed it had something to do with Student Council.

"Hey, Johnny. How's Savannah? Any better?"

Re: Mod your Service -- 02/06.

[identity profile] fantastic-torch.livejournal.com 2009-02-06 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hey, Joan," he replied. "No, but she's not freaked out anymore. Just... yeah, she can't remember anything yet."

Re: Mod your Service -- 02/06.

[identity profile] joan-notjane.livejournal.com 2009-02-06 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm sorry to hear that," Joan said, frowning. "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Re: Mod your Service -- 02/06.

[identity profile] fantastic-torch.livejournal.com 2009-02-06 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
"Just being there for her helps. I don't know what to do and helplessness is not something that sits well with me. I keep talking to her, you know? Telling her stories, trying anything that might trigger her memory."

Community Bulletin Board -- 02/06.

Man, those army recruiters don't ever stop (http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb3/skylieicons/spacemarinesw1k.jpg).

Dinah had to stare at that one a bit. And wonder.

OOC -- 02/06.

I'm already an hour into it and already I say boooo to today.

May be slow, due to combination forces of work and company.
