Sept 17th - XUB Lounge

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:37 pm

Lunchtime found Con in the lounge, a comfortable compromise between the bars and the cafeteria for a bit of light reading while he ate.

With a half-eaten salt beef sandwich and a mug of coffee besides him, he was relaxed on one of the sofas, a book open on his lap.

Mercy walks in and takes a seat on the same sofa, sitting with her legs curled under her. She gets out her own lunch, a tupperware container of yogurt and strawberries.

"Hey Constantine."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:47 pm

"Hiya Mercy." Con replied, closing the book and setting it aside. If Mercy cared to look, she'd see it was a book on Celtic mythology. "First day?"

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:49 pm

"Hmm? No, I've been here since a couple of days before the term started. I was just too busy to make friends until now, getting housing and everything together."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:51 pm

"Shame." Con mused. "You missed a lot of fun. Still, there will be plenty of time to catch up."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:53 pm

"I imagine so. You going to the mutant town thing?"

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:55 pm

"Tonight? I'm not sure, I might have to work."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:57 pm

"That's a shame. Well I'll be there, if you get a chance." She eats her lunch daintily.

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:06 pm

"I hope I do, it'll be a pity to miss a Witcher gig."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:08 pm

"Especially with five pounds at the door and free taps all night."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:10 pm

"That's a selling point for sure." Con grinned. "But honestly, the music's more of a draw for me."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:13 pm

"I think the venue matters too. A bad venue can ruin a good show."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:20 pm

"It does." Con agreed. "Weaver's isn't the best accoustically, but it's not bad. The atmosphere usually pretty good as well."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:36 pm

"You're local then?"

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:40 pm

"Pretty much yeah. Last 5 years anyway."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:41 pm

"Cool, I'll abuse you as a scene guru then." Mercy smiles, packs away her empty tupperware container.

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:51 pm

"As long as your scene doesn't involve anything fluffy, sure."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 8:03 pm

"Oooh harsh."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 8:05 pm

Con shrugged. "Just honest."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 8:09 pm

"So what counts as 'fluffy'?"

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 8:23 pm

"Oh, I'm sure you can figure it out." Con smirked.

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 8:23 pm

"I don't know, an answer to that question could say a lot about your tastes."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 8:33 pm

"Yes, it could." Con acknowledged.

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 8:39 pm

"So spill, what's fuzzy?" Mercy smiles, wraps her arms around her knees.

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 9:11 pm

"'Pop' music, fake tattoos, boho-chic.."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 10:28 pm

"Hmm, I can live with that definition."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 10:33 pm

"What about you?"

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 10:45 pm

"Bunnies." Mercy smiles impudently. "Bunnies are fluffy."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 10:49 pm

"That they are. Even Vorpal ones." Con agreed with a chuckle.

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 11:26 pm

"Then we are agreed." Mercy smiles, opens a nonfat frappuchino in a bottle, and sips it. "Excellent."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 11:36 pm

"That might be a little fluffy." Con mused, taking a drink of his coffee.

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 12:42 am

"What, the frappuchino? I know, but they don't sell real coffee in bottles you can carry around."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 12:48 am

"Vacuum flask?" Con suggested. "Not quite so pocket friendly I admit, but they come pretty small."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 3:04 am

"That seems like a lot of work to go to. I don't really think of it as coffee, I think of it as a coffee flavored milkshake. It's portable, and that's the best bonus."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 3:16 am

"When you're stuck all night in a recording studio, it's a blessing, but I know what you mean."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 3:30 pm

"Musician huh? Do you have any of your stuff in digital form?"

by **Constantine McGraw** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 3:34 pm

"Yeah, there's some up on the intranet if you're curious." Mercy had misunderstood his studio comment, but as he was a musician he ddn't bother to correct her.

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 3:36 pm

Mercy pulls out her iPhone. "URL me."

by **Constantine McGraw** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 3:45 pm

"It's 'lightningflows' on XUNet." Con replied, a little amused.

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 3:46 pm

Mercy surfs to it, and starts downloading stuff. While that's happening, she digs around for her earphones. "What's so funny? I want to hear your stuff."
