Assistants' Lounge, Wed 18

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

With only one class to worry about, Angel had plenty of time to hang out and do nothing pay close attention to his studies.

Currently he was curled up on the couch and reading a large, old, dusty book.

For fun.

Weirdo.

Sean, possessed of a better sense of fun than his dad, was chasing a ball around on the floor.

There was fresh coffee brewing.

[Lounge is for TAs, library/clinic helpers, yadda, yadda, yadda...]

"We haven't really crossed paths," Angel admitted. "She could just be waiting to strike."

"It's possible," Cameron glanced at Angel. "I don't think they took it too well."

"John told me I could shove fruit up my... well, you get the idea." Angel looked downcast.

Phoebe wheeled her wheelchair in, but she saw Cole was there, she tried to sneak back out. She was supposed to be in bed.

"Okay. Thanks. Maybe." Lana makes a face then smiles. "I fully intend to blame you if this all goes weird on me though."

"See, the thing is I know sex doesn't cheer you up, so it makes me wonder," Angel said. More seriously, he added, "How's Phoebe doing?"

Angel smiled. "Thanks. Doing my best."

"That's okay," Angel said. "I fully intend to blame Parker if Student Council does the same thing for me."

"All right then. I guess I'll see you another time." Lana gives him a little smile and heads off to her next class.

"Keep me posted," Angel said.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Ouch," Cameron winced. "I haven't even spoken to John since then. Well, I did for one second, but that really wasn't on my mind at the time."

Bel abruptly sobered. "She's all right," he said, gaurded. "She should be resting but she's determined to get back on her feet as soon as she can."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Was it some of your buddies doing the attacking?" Angel asked. His tone wasn't judgemental, just asking.

[demonbelthazor]

"Phoebe," Cole said warningly as he saw her trying to sneak out.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"We might've come to an accord," Angel said. "'course that doesn't mean I'm leaving my hair gel out where he can find it."

[demonbelthazor]

"Yeah," Bel admitted, after a moment's hesitation. "But they're not a problem anymore. It's been taken care of."

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe looked guilty and then tried to act innocent. "Hi, love. What's new?"

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"You killed them?" Again, not judging. Just matter of fact.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Probably a good idea," Cameron nodded. "Maybe there's a way we can make up for it? Uh, one that doesn't involve buying stuff. I'm still broke."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"I've got some money," Angel said. "'course everything's really expensive and in my day you could buy a gun for... um. Nevermind."

[demonbelthazor]

"What are you doing out of bed?" he said, crouching by the wheelchair. "Your leg won't heal if you don't get some rest."

[demonbelthazor]

Another hesitation, then he nodded slightly. "They're dead."

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe looked at him. "I...I'm scared to be alone, Cole."

[demonbelthazor]

Cole relaxed. "I'm sorry, love," he said. "I should've thought of that. We have a lot of the same classes, if you promise to sit still you can go with me to them. Or I'll skip class and stay with you."

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe nodded. "I'll sit still, I promise," she whispered.
