Thursday at The Perk

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

CJ heads out to get a latte and a muffin, as well as to get away from the television. She now knows more about the creatures of the deep oceans than she ever wanted to know. Plus, now that she knows what squid do during the full moon, she's never snorkeling again.

Bringing her laptop along, she does last minute prep for her classes. She's in no way dinking around on the wireless internet, and absolutely isn't mesmerized by an optical rehabilitation image that her neurologist emailed to her.

As always, chat with her or use the post for your own Perk patronage!

Charlie wandered in. He had a vague idea that new students might have arrived yesterday, but as he hadn't returned until early this morning, he wasn't entirely sure, nor entirely awake. Coffee could fix that.

Tearing her eyes away from the screen, she smiles at him. She's getting used to smiling at everyone...it seems like the best way to get back in the swing of things.

Charlie smiled back before turning to order his coffee. Coffee in hand, he approached CJ. "Good morning. Mind if I join you?"

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

"Please. I'm CJ Cregg. And you are?" She smiles warmly and pushes the chair out across from her with her foot while pushing her computer out of the way.

After realizing that she desperately needed a bigger, fluffier robe (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomhighdorms/354542.html), Isabel headed into town. Since none of the stores seemed to be open, she headed into the coffee shop.

After ordering a muffin and a mocha, she turned and looked for a place to sit.

Jake looked up from Spycatcher's adventures in alternate sexualities and spotted New Pretty Girl. WIth a mocha. Obviously a good person, Jake thought and waved to her. "Hey!"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Hi! Can I join you? I always hate eating alone." She smiled, "Are you a student here?"

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Sure thing." Jake gestured to the chair opposite him with his book. "And, yeah, I am. You're one of the new people, right? I saw you yesterday, along with, you know, most of the school. It's not usually that crowded unless it involves alcohol or someone's public humiliation, by the way."

Pip drags himself in and orders an espresso. Sitting at a table he quietly nurses the lovely hot, brown, and most importantly caffienated drink.

_{[OOC: Pip is actually very friendly. Just jet-lagged. And he likes meeting new people. So please, come and talk with him.]}

[chasingangela]

After buying her chai latte, Angela waves to Jake and the blonde girl, then hesitantly walks over to what looks like a new student.

Hey, she's supposed to be nice to them, right?

"Hi. Okay if I join you?"

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

Pip smiles and gestures to an open chair. "By all means. Sorry if I'm not at my most charming. The time zone change is hitting me like a freight train." He extends a hand in greeting. "Pip Bernadette, by the way."

Pippi wanders into the coffee shop and seems pleased by the aroma that greets her.

“Hmmm, this place will do nicely.”

She orders an espresso and inquires about the sale of whole beans. Then looks around for a place to sit or a familiar face from the night before. She notices Pip and walks over to him.

"Hello again fellow Pip and legal alian." she may or may not actually be a legal alian but she heard that term in a song once, "May I join you?"

[OOC: Pip and Angela actually already left and went back to school. Pip is currently checking in his very large weaponry collection with John Sheppard. I'm not sure what the protocol is here 'cause I'm a n00b, but I do think they like us to keep to one place, ya know?]

Looking for a decent cup of tea, he wanders into the Perk. If he were inclined to make it himself, he'd do that...but where's the corruption in that?

Taking a nice cuppa to a comfy chair, he looks through a book someone kindly left nearby. A hard-boiled detective novel, with a sweet assistant and a dame with gams that don't quit. He snorts and begins to read. Until some silly person interrupts him, that is.

Pippi wanders into the coffee shop and seems pleased by the aroma that greets her.

“Hmmm, this place will do nicely.”

She orders an espresso and inquires about the sale of whole beans. Then looks around for a place to sit or a face from the night before. She doesn't see anybody she thinks she knows so she takes a seat near the window with her class schedule and starts to take notes.

Dark glasses turn her direction over the top of a pulp novel. He picks up his teacup and raises it to her, nodding and grinning broadly.

Pippi toasts back at the carming fellow.

"Good morning." She says, "Whatcha readin? Is it good?"

Cordelia wanders over to the town in the morning after she woke up. This happened to be particularly early, since she's not used to sleeping in this strange place, especially not with someone else sleeping across the room from her. It's still loads better than her apartment in LA, though.

She walks to the counter and orders a double non-fat caramel macchiato and an oat bar and stands, scanning for either an empty table or one of the few people she met last night. Or anyone who looks vaguely friendly.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake looks up from his books again. He only has one chapter left, but he heard the words 'caramel macchiato' and so now he's regarding new brunette girl with interest.

[upforachase.livejournal.com]

Cordy is about to go sit at an empty table when she spots someone looking at her. She smiles and walks over to him. "Hi, I'm Cordelia. Is it okay if I sit here?" she asks, pulling out a chair at his table.

Josh, lured by the siren scent of coffee, walked into the Perk.

He ordered the biggest cup they had and sat down with a copy of the Washington Post.

He was so involved in making snarky comments about various politicians, he might not have noticed any familiar faces in the place.

Or any unfamiliar ones who might want to meet the new government teacher.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake had finished his Spycatcher book and was bored. He'd met pretty blonde girl and pretty brunette already today, and he felt like this was his Be Nice To New People Day, so when he saw unfamiliar guy sit down with a huge cup of coffee, he grabbed his third mocha of the day, and his backpack, and wandered over to him. "Hey? Mind if I join you? I'm bored."

[professor-lyman.livejournal.com]

Josh looked up and smiled. "Not at all." He put aside the paper. "I'm Josh Lyman, the new government and history teacher. Do you go to the school?"

After about four hours of banging his head into the same research again and again, Wilson decided to take the oncology journal and head out for a change of scenario and a jacked up coffee type item.

Ordering and receiving a tall latte with extra shots and cinnamon, Wilson wandered to a quiet looking corner with two chairs. Shrugging out of the leather jacket, he settled himself down in one of the chairs and took the journal out, trying to get through what exactly his peer was trying to say about gene therapy, because honestly...the man's writing was dreadfully dull.

There comes a time when a person needs to think "Zomg, coffee" and now is one of those times. Jaye gets a cappucino, absently checking the menu for possible Gilmore baby names, and takes a seat at a table with her laptop.
