Through Being Cool

Date: Sun. Sept. 11, 2005
Time completed: 9:38 p.m.
Summary: Everyone's papers are finished, and now the gang is meeting in a chatroom to discuss them. Some angst, mild language, sexual inuendo (is that how you spell 'inuendo?). Layla/Will, Zach/Maj. Review if you feel the urge, flame if you must, but know that flames will be cleverly mocked offline.
Disclaimer: If I owned Sky High, there would have been a make-out scene with Layla, Magenta, and Warren. Mmm, angsty bishi yumminess.... Erm, I mean, ignore the drooling. I'm normally not this rabid. >.<

Entering chatroom....

BriarRose: Okay, so we're all here except Warren.

Firebug has entered the chatroom

Firebug: Miss me?

BriarRose: Speak of the devil. :)

Firebug: (checks userlist) Where's Stronghold?

PuddleJumper: Still trying to connect to Layla's router, apparently.

Rodentgirl: You know, that almost sounds dirty when you say it out loud.

BriarRose: Magenta!

Nightlight: Sounds like a geeky pick-up line. Hey, Maj.... : P

Rodentgirl: Boyfriend or not, if you try that on me, I'll hurt you.

PuddleJumper: *sleazy voice* Hey, baby, wanna make a connection?

BriarRose: C'mon guys, that's just mean!

BriarRose: Will: Care to back her up on this, Warren?

Firebug: Can't type... laughing too hard....

Nightlight: You know we're only teasing you 'cause we care.

Rodentgirl: And it's freaking hilarious.

PuddleJumper: That, too. :)

BriarRose: Okay, guys, all is forgiven. By the way, Will's connected.

Liftoff has entered the chatroom

Liftoff: No teasing my girlfriend, or I shall glare! >: l

Firebug: That emoticon is extremely creepy.

Nightlight: Why?

Firebug: It reminds me of Royal Pain's lackey, that's all. The clown one.

Rodentgirl: As if I needed more reasons to hate clowns.

Liftoff: Sorry, won't use it again. So, we're all here?

Liftoff (private message): That emoticon doesn't really remind you of Chuckles, or whatever his name was, does it?

PuddleJumper: Yep. So, let's get this party started!

Firebug: Only a geek like you would refer to this as a 'party'.

Firebug (private message-Liftoff): No.

Nightlight: Okay, first order of business: Flamethrower's paper.

Firebug: Why mine?

Liftoff (private message): So...who does it remind you of?

Nightlight: Because yours is the only one we haven't gone over yet.

Firebug: Oh.

Firebug (private message-Liftoff): Speed, when we went up against him and Lash in StC. He looked at me just like that. I thought he was going to.... I got scared.

Rodentgirl: I liked the last draft. It was...well, it was *good*.

PuddleJumper: Easily better than mine.

Liftoff (private message): Oh.

BriarRose: Yeah, you should be a writer as your cover.

BriarRose (private message): I cried when I read it. So did Will, actually.

Firebug: I'm not that good. It was all...sappy and stuff.

Liftoff (private message): I didn't cry!

Firebug (private message-Liftoff): How the hell did you...?

Rodentgirl: It was honest. If Ms. Song hadn't wanted honesty, she shouldn't have asked for it.

Liftoff (private message): I'm in Layla's room, remember?

Nightlight: It's cool, man. The only people that will ever read it are us and Ms. Song.

Firebug: Yeah, but I put personal stuff about you guys in there, too.

PuddleJumper: Hey, we put stuff about you in our papers, too, remember?

BriarRose: Although I didn't actually think you'd put in the part about me singing to you. o.o

Firebug: (shrugs) Want me to take it out?

BriarRose: No! It's fine, really. It just seemed so...not like you to admit that you have nightmares.

Liftoff: Well, you put in that part about being jealous of Royal Pain in the Ass. That's pretty 'not like you', Layla. ; )

Nightlight: *shudders* I still can't believe you made out with an old lady.

Rodentgirl: Whatever. The point is, we all liked your paper, and we don't want you to make any changes you don't want to make yourself.

PuddleJumper: Channeling Layla a bit?

Rodentgirl: Go bottle yourself, Melty.

PuddleJumper: I stand corrected.

Firebug: AFK, phone.

BriarRose: So, who do you guys think we'll be paired up with? You know, for Hero-Sidekick placement?

Liftoff: Well, since they replaced Zach in the Hero class, I'm betting he and Maj are going to be together.

Rodentgirl: I still can't believe you shoot light beams.

Nightlight: I almost wish I didn't. I broke an arcade machine over the summer.

PuddleJumper: I'm being placed with Collete.

Liftoff: Isn't she the one that phases through stuff?

Nightlight: What's her hero name? Ghost?

PuddleJumper: That's her.

Rodentgirl: How do you know you're going to be placed together?

PuddleJumper: ... I sorta...peeked at the list in advance.

BriarRose: Oh, who am I with?

Nightlight: Probably Will.

Liftoff: Probably Warren. She's the only person in hero support who's as stubborn as him.

Firebug: Whaddaya mean, "stubborn"? Besides, they'll probably leave me sidekickless. I only work with you guys because I can put up with you.

BriarRose: Oh, we know better than that, Warren.

Rodentgirl (private message): Who was on the phone?

PuddleJumper: Actually, they put the three of you together.

Nightlight: Woah!

Firebug: Huh?

Rodentgirl: The hell...?

Firebug (private message-Rodentgirl): Don't worry about it.

Liftoff: 0.0

BriarRose: That's a twist. Does that happen often?

Firebug: Odds are, never.

PuddleJumper: I asked Mom about it, and she said it's not too uncommon. It happens once or twice a year, but most of the time it's 'cause someone got moved into the hero class or transferred in. She can't ever remember anyone starting out the school year in a trio.

Firebug: See?

Nightlight: Hey, don't worry about it. Everything will work out...and I gotta go. Mom's yelling at me for not being in bed yet.

BriarRose: See you, Zack.

Rodentgirl: Don't forget to bring my cd back tomorrow.

Liftoff: Bye.

Firebug: You're going to stay up all night playing video games, aren't you?

Nightlight: Um...no?

Firebug: -.-

Nightlight has left the chatroom.

PuddleJumper: I'd better go, too. I need to defrag my hard drive.

Rodentgirl: See ya, Melty. Good luck with the computer stuff.

Liftoff: You'll have to teach me how to do that. I have no idea how this computer works.

Firebug: (laughs at Stronghold) See you at school.

BriarRose: Ditto! : ) Oh, not about the laughing, of course.

PuddleJumper has left the chatroom.

Rodentgirl: Alright, Peace, 'fess up.

Firebug: What are you talking about, Squeaky?

Rodentgirl: Who was on the phone? And don't say no one.

Liftoff: Did I miss something?

Firebug: A private message. Look, it was just Ms. Song. She wanted to talk about my paper.

BriarRose: Did she not like it? Maybe you shouldn't have shown it to her before turning it in....

Firebug: She liked it all right. She wanted to read it in front of the class.

Liftoff: Really? Dad says she only does that for the best papers.

BriarRose: She isn't going to do it, is she? I mean, it wouldn't take a genius to realize who it was about.

Rodentgirl: I don't think she'd read it without his permission.

Firebug: Of course she's not going to.

Liftoff: Probably a good idea. Even though it is a good paper.

Firebug: I'm going to read it.

BriarRose: Okay, did I read that right?

Rodentgirl: Yeah, who knows what it'll do to your 'cool badass' reputation.

Firebug: I'm tired of having to hold that up all the time. I'm through being cool.

Liftoff: Why does that sound familiar?

Rodentgirl: It's the title of a song. Are you sure you want to do that?

BriarRose: Yeah, reading...in front of all those people.... I'd get stage fright, if nothing else.

Liftoff: I'd probably forget how to talk.

Firebug: (shrugs) What's the worst that can happen, Stronghold? Whenever I try to avoid giving people a reason to talk about me, they talk about me more. So, I'm giving them something to talk about. The worst thing that could happen is they'll talk.

Rodentgirl: Whatever. Look, no matter what you do, we'll all be behind you 100 %.

BriarRose: "Heros to each other, if to no one else", and all that.

Rodentgirl: I'm going to bed. *yawns* See you tomorrow.

Liftoff: Bye, Maj.

Firebug: 'night.

Firebug (private message-Rodentgirl): Thanks, Squeaky.

BriarRose: See you in class, Magenta.

Rodentgirl has left the chatroom.

Firebug: So....

Firebug: Did my paper really make Will cry? o.o

Liftoff: Well...I might have gotten a bit misty-eyed, but that's it!

BriarRose: Males and sensitivity issues. There was definitely at least one tear.

Liftoff: Was not! *throws pillow at Layla*

Firebug: Give it up, Will. I can tell you're lying even through the computer.

Firebug: If it helps...I might have gotten misty-eyed while writing it. *Might* have.

BriarRose: Okay, Mom is yelling at us to get to bed. Are you home alone tonight?

Firebug: Yeah.

Liftoff: Layla's mom wants to know if you want to stay here tonight.

Firebug: Really?

BriarRose: Uh-huh. Will's parents are in England, so he's staying the night anyway, and we figured...?

Firebug: Sure.

BriarRose: See you in ten?

Firebug: Yeah.

Liftoff has left the chatroom.

BriarRose has left the chatroom.

Firebug has left the chatroom.

Exiting chatroom....
