MCA #0: Wednesday Morning

[needsaparrot]

Possibly the turbo-snuggle thing currently going on has something to do with Xander having a few issues with saying goodbye to people. Or possibly he's just being a blanket-hog and Bridge happens to be inextricably tangled in said blanket. Some from column A, some from column B...

Bridge isn't complaining. Mostly because he's got the same goodbye-related issues.

[needsaparrot]

Of course, column C could be "Xander is still mostly asleep..."

Judging from his muttered comment about peanut butter and pastrami, it's a good bet there's at least a smidgen from column C.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Peanut butter toast?" Bridge mumbles in reply.

[needsaparrot]

"With pickles."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Pickles n' pastrami?" Bridge says dubiously.

[needsaparrot]

"Your issue here is with the pickle/pastrami combination?" ....possibly he's more awake than he was pretending to be.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Peanut butter toast is perfectly reasonable," Bridge says, tilting his head up to look at Xander.

[needsaparrot]

"Yeah, but peanut butter and pastrami toast?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"I like pastrami," Bridge says defensively.

[needsaparrot]

"And peanut butter?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Yeah?"

[needsaparrot]

"....Now I'm hungry, dammit."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"This is why I wanna get better at that telekinesis thing," Bridge mumbles against Xander's shoulder. "'Cause I don't wanna *move*."

[needsaparrot]

"Or maybe I install a fridge and microwave under the bed?' Xander suggests. Then, facing reality, amends himself: "...or maybe you install a fridge and microwave under the bed?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"You want me to trick out your bed?" Bridge asks with a grin.

[needsaparrot]

"That sounds vaguely dirty. And also like money might be changing hands. ........SPEAKING OF WHICH."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Ow, yelling." Bridge says. "I'm *right here*. What?"

[needsaparrot]

"I just realized that some people never gave me back my money."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Hunh?" Bridge says. Apparently he's not *quite* awake just yet, or he would've remembered what Xander was referring to.

[needsaparrot]

"There were certain times on a certain weekend when some form of 'tricking out my bed' was mentioned in a different context?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Wha- I- Ohhhhh."

Bridge turns bright red, and then simultaneously attempts to pull the covers over his head and bury his face in Xander's chest.

[needsaparrot]

"Not that any of us were there for that because we were too busy reading very long and fascinating books. According to some other people who also weren't there."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Veeeery fascinating," comes Bridge's muffled voice from under the covers. "Very."

[needsaparrot]

"I'm just sayin' somebody took some cash from somebody, and some other somebodies returned said cash...I hear...."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Rumour has it that somebody else might still have their half of what was taken on a shelf in their room somewhere..." Still not coming out from under those covers.

[needsaparrot]

Xander pokes the covers. "Rumor has it that somebody might not give a damn and might just be yanking your chain..."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Somebody else might be kinda embarrassed about the whole thing, and how they never gave the money back even though it's been months," Bridge- er, somebody- admits.

[needsaparrot]

Xander pokes his head under the covers. "Somebody can keep the money forever if somebody wants, and we could forget we ever had this conversation because somebody is clearly an insensitive moron?" he suggests. "And/or somebody could buy me dinner with it."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Hi, somebody is not an 'insensitive moron', but somebody else might be acting a little childish by hiding under the covers, and what are you doing Sunday?"

[needsaparrot]

"Going to dinner with somebody," Xander answers, hitting him over the head with a pillow. As you do.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Wh-" Bridge starts to ask. "Oh. You mean me," he realises as the pillow connects.

[needsaparrot]

"Unless you have other plans."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Well," Bridge says. "Considering the date? Technically, yes. But dinner is a *part* of those plans."

[needsaparrot]

Xander does some calculations without, for once, being dumb enough to say date? out loud. "Eeeeenteresting. I assume the dinner comes first."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge watches Xander run those mental calculations with an amused smile, and then nods. "I considered the other way around, but then realised if we did it that way there's the possibility that we might not actually *get* to the dinner part of the plan."

[needsaparrot]

"I like the way you think. Not that I figure I'd be complaining if it went that way..."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"That's the idea," Bridge grins.
