Sept 3 - The roof of one of the lecture halls

[Sara Stanton]

After making their way through the northern part of the campus, Sara keeping one arm wrapped around Will as they walk, she points to one of the buildings standing on the edge of campus. "Maybe that one? I bet we'd have a nice view over the river from it."

[Will Stanton]

"Couldn't hurt to try it at least, though I admit I'm a little turned around. I haven't been up this side of campus before."

"Let's give it a shot--worst comes to worst, we come back down and try again, right?"

[Sara Stanton]

"Me neither, but I think we can't get any closer to the Thames without either sitting on a wall or getting wet. So let's go and see, the river isn't really the important part anyway." She smiles brightly at Will before turning back to the building.

"Hmm... wanna look for a regular way up or just use our evil freak powers?"

[Will Stanton]

"Well, as an freaky freaking freak..."

Chuckling at that last bit, Will walks up to the side of the building, and stretches his arms up. And up. And up.

Soon, there is a ladder up to the top of the lecture hall.

"Ladies first, naturally"

[Sara Stanton]

"Well now that's certainly mroe convenient than anything else. Plus you get to be all chivalrous after all."
She smirks and somewhat awkwardly starts climbing up, suddenly bursting into barely held back giggles about halfway up thanks to the simple oddness of climbing up a ladder made of Will and also not exactly being sober either.
"As much as I should be used to the idea, this is just too bizarre..."

[Will Stanton]

"It's a first for me, too. I'm all for women climbing all over me, but this is a little out there."

Once Sara reaches the top, Will retracts himself up to the roof. He staggers for a second, but that's most likely more due to a bit of alcohol than fatigue.

[Sara Stanton]

"I'm sure a more regular climbing of Mount Will isn't entirely out of the picture."
Augh! What are you saying? That was just lame and you are clearly too drunk.

"I... well..."
Flushing a nice shade of crimson she turns around and takes a few steps with the excuse of taking a look to the north and the lights of the cities skyline reflecting off of the dark line of the Thames. "Anyway, looks like we got the view I was hoping for." She turns back to Will and smiles, waiting for him to catch up to her.

[Will Stanton]

Will snickered at Sara's last remarks. Oh, I think that could be arranged

Stopping a few steps behind Sara, he pauses to glance over the city for a moment, before looking back at her. "I dunno, I think the view is better from back here."

[Sara Stanton]

"Well you do owe me a compliment about my butt after that song..."
Turning around she gives Will an impish smile before grabbing his hand.
"I've been meaning to ask... Where are you from? If you don't mind me asking. There's people here from pretty much everywhere and... well I'm curious."

[Will Stanton]

"A compliment, ey? Hrm. I'll leave it at 'good' for now, pending further analysis."

"Me, I'm from New York. Buffalo, not the city; there's more than just one town in the state. Finished high school in a town called Byersville after--having to leave high school #1."

He pauses for a moment at that.

"How bout you? You from around here?"

[Sara Stanton]

"I'd ask why you changed schools, but, well, I can propably guess."
She looks around and finds some place to sit.
"Things propably... went weird for most people here around that time."

"And, well, I'm not from around here as in 'London or nearby' at least. I'm from Cardiff. Bit further up north, near Wales."

[Will Stanton]

"I'd ask why you changed schools, but, well, I can propably guess."
She looks around and finds some place to sit.
"Things propably... went weird for most people here around that time."

"Yeah, you know, you hear on the news about people reacting, but no, it could never happen to you, everyone already likes you, they'll accept it... then again, I probably could have found a better way to do the big reveal, but..."

"Bah. The past is the past. Can't change it, just have to move on."

[Sara Stanton]

"I certainly never expected it, but I kind of always hoped. You know, in the way you hope to win the lottery or something. When it actually happened it certainly wasn't how I dreamt it up in my head."

[Will Stanton]

"Yeah, you see them on TV, and you think wow. You never really think about their lives outside of action and one-liners and wow I can lift a truck."

"Happened to you in high school, too, I take it?"

[Sara Stanton]

"Yeah, when I was 15. Turning into a formless blob of rock doesn't really do wonders for the self-image of a teenage girl. Took me a long time to really get it under control. Hell, it still happens accidently sometimes."

[Will Stanton]

"Yeah, when I was 15. Turning into a formless blob of rock doesn't really do wonders for the self-image of a teenage girl. Took me a long time to really get it under control. Hell, it still happens accidently sometimes."

"Eesh. If I had known that, I might have chosen a different song. I never had it that bad; just had to come up with excuses some times about "hey, wasn't your hear brown yesterday?" when I couldn't change back at will. Well, never had it that bad in public; some of my experiments were...not very much fun at all.

Hey, but appearances are overrated anyway, right?"

[Sara Stanton]

"Don't worry about the song. It was funny. And as you said, the past is the past and I did end up coming quite a bit closer to being a super-hero -and- I got to kiss the cute green-haired guy. And the semester hasn't even started yet!"
She looks at Will with beaming eyes. "So I think it was worth going through that rough patch."

[Will Stanton]

"Well, if I see this cute green haired guy, I might have to slug him one.

But, yeah, I guess it has all been worth it in the long run. It's too bad..." Will trails off here.

[Sara Stanton]

"Too bad?" She quirks an eyebrow.

[Will Stanton]

Will grins.
"That this has gotta be a dream.

I mean, join the X-Men, hijack a van, save a park, get free donuts and soda, and spend the evening on a rooftop with a beautiful girl? Not happening. Uh-uh, unrealistic."

[Sara Stanton]

"You're right. Free donuts AND soda?" She chuckles and leans back a little, propping herself up with her arms.
"Still, you really should come and sit with me though. It's getting a little cold and you wouldn't want me to freeeeeze..."
She draws the word out in an overly dramatic fashion, one arm stretched out towards Will as she turns herself solid white marble.

[Will Stanton]

"You're right. Free donuts AND soda?" She chuckles and leans back a little, propping herself up with her arms.
"Still, you really should come and sit with me though. It's getting a little cold and you wouldn't want me to freeeeeze..."
She draws the word out in an overly dramatic fashion, one arm stretched out towards Will as she turns herself solid white marble.

Will barks out a laugh, and then comes over, sits down beside Sara, and puts his arm over her shoulder.

"Woah, you're right--colder then I would have thought."

[Sara Stanton]

"Much better!" Slowly turning back to normal she wraps an arm around Will's waist and leans into him. "So... if this must be a dream then what's going to happen next?"
Craning her neck a little she looks at Will with big brown eyes.

[Will Stanton]

"Well, I suppose I'd start with another one of these, as they don't seem to be getting old."

Will wraps his other arm around Sara and leans in with another kiss.

[Sara Stanton]

Sara hums happily as she returns the kiss and closes her eyes, letting herself get lost in the moment.
"Mmm... that's definately what'd happen in a dream." Wrapping her other arm around Will she cuddles herself against him.

[Will Stanton]

"Mmmm. Yeah." Will holds Sara close to him. "A very pleasant dream one doesn't want to awaken from. As long as we stay like this."

[Sara Stanton]

"No... it's better, because hopefully you'll still be there when I wake up tomorrow..."

[Will Stanton]

"Mmmhmm. Here's to that."

[Sara Stanton]

"I... I mean it. I want you to be h-here when I wake up tomorrow. Well, m-maybe not here exactly, b-but... you know..."

[Will Stanton]

"I... I mean it. I want you to be h-here when I wake up tomorrow. Well, m-maybe not here exactly, b-but... you know..."

Will sits up, and looks into Sara's eyes. "Are...are you sure? Because, if you are...I...I..."

Will pauses for a moment and closes his eyes.

"I'd be good with that, yeah."

[Sara Stanton]

Sara nods. "I am. Just... well I..." She stops and looks up at Wil, taking a moment to figure out how to say what she wants to. "It... things n-never really got that far for me before, so..."

[Will Stanton]

"Well, we..we're in the same boat, there.." Will chuckles nervously, rubbing the back of his head. "I mean, I haven't...well, ever since I...you know, I've never..."

"...we'll figure it out."

[Sara Stanton]

She can't help but let out a slightly nervous chuckle. "Yeah... it's not that complicated."


((FTB here or officially move it to one of the dorms?))

[Will Stanton]

((probably easiest to FTB here, then if there's a continuation, have it appear in the dorms. So, uh, let's do that then.))
