MCA #8- Friday

[notconflicted]

Sia was here so she could be there for her best friend at the worst time ever, and today that meant staying in and ordering out and watching movies.

"It's been forever since I've had a day like this," Sia said. "...If I ever have."

[For the renter, and yay SP!]

"They get my ingredients right now," Jessica said. "I don't want to push it farther than that, though."

"A small victory is still a victory," Sia decided. "Is there anything else you've learned here as an adult that you should pass on?"

"The social life takes a hit when you're not in the dorms, but that's the trade off for actually having room to live," Jessica noted after a moment's consideration.

"And not having to share a bathroom, or deal with possessed television programming..." She frowned. "I assume. Does that still happen?"

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

"Not that I've noticed, but I don't really watch much TV outside of my news binges," Jessica said. "It's possible that I still have TV trauma from that one time that led to sock hops and everything."

[notconflicted]

"Oh, just when I had repressed that," Sia sighed.

"Sorry. At least that one was relatively harmless," Jessica said. "We were all just kind of dumb during it."

"I seem to remember trying to find a husband," Sia said, grimacing.

"I flirted with Cade. I'm not sure which decision was worse," Jessica joked.

[notconflicted]

"That," Sia said, and smiled. "Sorry."

"No, no, you're right," Jessica said. "But at least he was wearing sleeves at the time like a respectable person," Jessica joked.

"I never thought I'd see the day," Sia said, shaking her head. "Technically I still haven't."

"It was a phase he grew out of," Jessica said. "I think we're really just lucky he didn't adapt to Earth fashion and decide to go with sweater vests all day, every day in school."

[notconflicted]

Sia frowned hard at her after a long, silent moment.

"I can't even imagine that. Even a little."

"Be glad. It's a weird mental image," Jessica warned.

[notconflicted]

"And to think in the past I've been able to count on you for mental images that were at least amusing," Sia teased.

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

"That's the other big change into adulthood. The mental images get weirder and more disturbing," Jessica said. "Like Atton as a mime."

[notconflicted]

Sia actually laughed. "I'm telling him about that one."

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

"Don't be surprised if he never talks to you again," Jessica said. "Because mime."

[notconflicted]

Aww, that sounded more like Jessica. "That was terrible and I can't believe we're friends."
