Assistants' Lounge, Thursday, March 23

Bel opened up the Assistants' Lounge for the day. He was still in a good mood about telling Logan to stay away from Angel last night. Petty? Nah, not at all.

[Save me from work!]

Phoebe smiled, trying to pretend that Anders hadn't just made her really happy.

"No one thinks we're cute. They keep wanting us to be apart... well, except Jaye, she seems to be happy we're together."

"Hey, yeah, that works for me," agreed Anders. "Personally, my vote's for the fourth floor, so at least the third and fifth floors have a themed common room in between 'em while they wait for theirs to be done."

"I don't get that," he said, shaking his head. "People wanting you to be apart, I mean. What's wrong with people bein' happy, you know? There's enough angst around here."

"Of course I do!" Blair scoffed and then mumbled into his hand. "It's something that comes right before the big P?"

Just before the end of first period, Isabel came in looking for coffee.

Bel facepalmed. "Okay, let me explain. Have you ever seen the movie When Harold Met Sarah? With the scene in the diner?"

"Sounds good to me," Bel said. "I just gotta check with the principal to make sure we still have the all clear to go ahead with this."

"Hey, Isabel," Bel said, giving her a wave as she walked in.

"Hey Bel," Isabel said quietly as she poured herself a cup of coffee. "I haven't talked to you lately. How have you been?"

"Hey, yeah, and this is a different principal now, too. Huh. That might make things interesting." Not that Anders was wondering if maybe they could get out of this or anything. Really.

"No, I don't think so. I saw Shuk the other day though, with that green ogre guy. Very funny." Blair bounced a little and grinned. "The big O has something to do with food?"

"Okay," he said, then added with a grin, "Behaving. Mostly. How about you?"

"Well, it can," Bel said carefully, "if used right. Okay. The Big O. It's when, um, someone makes someone else feel really good, like so good they're shaking and stuff. Or, well, you can do it to yourself, too."

She managed to come up with a very small smile. "I heard. That's good." She shrugged, "I'm okay. Been busy mostly. I'm glad the bouncing stopped though."

Bel rolled his eyes. "Yeah, that was a brilliant trick of Logan's, wasn't it? And they call me careless with magic. Glad you're better, though."

"Like a seizure?" Blair grabbed a notebook and pen scratching down really good, shaking, do it to yourself. "But good and...I don't get it. What does it look like?"

Isabel sighed, "It's actually a bit funny in retrospect. And honestly? In the grand scheme of things? It was pretty minor. There are definitly worse things that can happen."

"I haven't had a chance to say anything before, but I'm glad you made the choice you did. If there's anything I can ever do to help..."

"Okay, I am not demonstrating," Bel said, holding his hands up. "Why don't you find a copy of When Harold Met Sarah and fast-forward to the scene in the diner. That'll show you what a woman sounds like when she's having the 'Big O.' ~~Er, or faking it.~~"

"Thanks," Bel said with a small smile. "You were actually a big part of that. I mean, you didn't get all judgmental on me. You talked to me and tried to understand why I was doing what I was doing. It helped me realize I was wrong." He flashed her a bigger grin. "I'm sure Angel appreciates it, too."

"Okay, man." Blair scribbled down a note to grab the movie. "So I should find out about this O thing and give that to Molly for her birthday? What if someone else gives her one?"

As if reading Anders' mind, Bel said, "Sometimes I wonder if we just forgot to do this, if the new principal would even notice," Bel said. "I mean, it could be kinda fun to redo the common rooms, but it's still work."

"Of course I did," she smiled at him. "I told you I would."

If Bel had been drinking, he would've choked. "Well, first you have to find out if Molly wants one," he said. "You can't really give one to someone if they don't want it. And even if she wants it, you may not be able to give it to her. Maybe you're better off with a different gift," he finished hastily.

"I can't wait to see who the nominees will be," he said, maybe a little too gleefully.

"I could talk to Cam about it. He knows Molly pretty well." Blair shrugged. "Although flowers are looking like an easier choice."
