Room 317 [afternoon]

[tatooine_doofus]

Luke wouldn't say that he had been spending the entire weekend hiding in his room, but he'd pretty much spent the entire weekend hiding in his room.

He'd call it "processing."

It looked a lot like brooding.

Yoda was in his tank doing the supportive pet thing. Or sleeping. It was kind of hard to tell.

Oh, look, there was a Rory knocking softly on Luke's door.

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke rolled out of bed and padded to the door. "Hey," he said, clearly surprised to see her.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Hi!" Rory said. "I hadn't seen you for a few days, so I came to see if you'd been eaten by the school or jumped off the roof or something."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke gave her a small smile. "Nothing nearly that interesting," he said. "I was just, um, taking some time for myself. Would you like to come in?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"If you're meditating, I don't want to disturb you," Rory said, completely misunderstanding.

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Meditating?" Luke repeated, looking confused.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"You know, closing your eyes and connecting with the Fo...." Rory trailed off. "Yeah, you don't know about the meditating thing, either, huh? Sorry. It's just quiet...thinking and being peaceful, basically."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Sounds nice," Luke said with a small sigh. "I could use some peace."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Everything okay?" Rory asked, immediately concerned. "Or is it still just everyone being weird about you being your father's son, et cetera, et cetera?"

Joxer knocked on the door of what he totally thought was his room.

"Agnes? You decent?"

Sometimes, Joxer was too stupid for words. Today, Joxer was too stupid to realize what floor he was on.

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke opened the door and peered out. "Um, Agnes doesn't live here."

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer looked startled, then glanced over at the door and reread the room number.

"You're right," he said, oh-so-slyly. "I was just testing you. Seeing if you'd secretly kidnapped my roommate. And taken her to this room, which is yours, and not mine, and is on a different floor and everything."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke blinked. "Did you fall and hit your head or something?"

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"Okay, maybe once or twice on the way back from the diner, but that was entirely because of my usual heroic exercises," Joxer protested.

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Heroic exercises?" Luke repeated.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

"Keeping on my toes, springing back up from being knocked down, pretending to fall over to get a foe off guard, that sort of thing," Joxer said. "I'm a mighty hero, after all."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Uh huh," Luke said, not entirely convinced. He leaned against the door jamb. "Ever rescue a princess?"

[multiplez]

"Okay!" Z said, bursting into the room without knocking because, hi, her room. "I think I have this figured out!" She darted over to the Synthetron and, while consulting the manual, pushed several buttons in succession, then 'enter.'

A plate of pancakes appeared. They were purple.

"Hmm. Maybe not."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"I like purple," Luke offered. "Or is this like the blue milk thing?"

[multiplez]

"Yeeeeah, milk should not be blue," Z said. She poked at the pancakes. "And I've never seen purple pancakes before."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"White milk is weird," Luke countered. "What do purple pancakes taste like? Green Jello tasted like green!"

[multiplez]

"White milk is normal," Z argued. "I don't know what purple pancakes taste like. Grapes, maybe?"

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Maybe," Luke agreed. "They certainly are...purple."

[multiplez]

"Very purple," she said. "Dare you to eat them."

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke hadn't learned not to accept random food yet.

"Okay," he said, smiling.
