The Perk, Sunday evening

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

Angel had coffee, he had his dog, he'd made some handwavey phonecalls to let people know where to meet him -

If only he had music and rhythm. Then he could ask for nothing more.

Actually he was content with the whole coffee/dog/friends thing.

[ooc: If you think Angel called you, he did. Angel's here for his friends but feel free to use the Perk for your non-Angel Perky needs.]

"Lorelai and Nik were. Brantley was a brat and asked Aeryn if she was the maid."

"Brantley's got a death wish, huh?" Angel said.

"He told John that women are useless and eat bon-bons all day," Rory said. "I think maybe I was given some kind of head injury in that universe."

"Because you didn't leave him out in the woods?" Angel asked, guessing with what little context he had.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Well, that, and he was so poorly raised by alternate-me and his dad," she said. "You didn't have any alternate kiddies running around here, did you?"

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"No," Angel said, rather quick and stoic-like. "Passed me by."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Just as well. The mom probably would've been me or Molly or something," she said. "Whatever caused it to happen had a sick sense of humor."

Angel made a disgusted face. "Oh man. Not that you both aren't pretty but I kinda passed on the incest when I got the soul again, yanno?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory nodded vehemently. "One of my sons, Nik? Was a Skywalker. Not Anakin's."

Angel gave a sympathetic grimace. "Yeah, definitely goes down better when you're soulless."

Angel's words sunk in.

"Not... uh, well, actually it sometimes was dir- uh, so when you leaving for college?"

Rory blushed and winced. "Um, not until the end of August. I'm teaching a workshop, though. Imparting wisdom and stuff to the masses."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"I am not surprised at all," Angel said. "Whatcha teaching?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Glitter," she said. "Or, well, a workshop designed around use of glitter."

"You're going to have an entire class about boykissy?" Angel asked.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"And flags," she said. "And decorating people's offices when they're obnoxious and I want to make a point."

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Can you do Prof. Lyman's for me?" Angel asked. "Not that he was obnoxious. Just to say hi."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Sure," Rory said. "And I'll make sure someone signs your name to it, too."

She looked over at where Vladdie had begun rolling around on the floor like Sean had. "I should get Vladdiekins home and tucked in. He hasn't slept at all today, the little freak."

"I've got a portal to catch," Angel said. He went to give Rory a hug. "Congratulations. You made it."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory hugged him tight. "Well, kinda. And I got to hit an alien with my shoes! Bonus points!"

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Good thing," Angel said, still hugging. "I'd get jealous if it was waffles."
