Rm 326 - Monday night

[fantastic_torch]

Johnny got moved into his room all right. Though he did have only minor problems with his door knob. He wouldn't discuss how he got it to turn for him either.

He didn't care about unpacking. He just set his stuff wherever and tossed himself down onto his bed. More privacy was better but damn, he didn't have anyone to be private with. What the hell?

He was restless and bored and thought about his workshops today. They were made of awesomeness.

Still..."Ahhh, screw it." He dug through a bag and pulled out his toy. The thing. Then he made it talk, 'It's clobberin' time'. 

(ooc: open to anyone especially roomie if he wants..sp is love)

The last trip back to the dorms, Ed saved for Cuddles and the bag that he had meant to bring to Resembool with him.

He pushed open the door with the cat tucked under his right arm and nodded to his roommate.

Johnny looked over as the door opened and he sat up, shoving his toy behind his back. "Hey, Ed. How's it going - Oooh, you got a cat."

[im-fullmetal.livejournal.com]

"He's my brother's cat, actually," Edward said with a wave to Johnny after he threw his bag on the bad and set the cat down carefully. "Hope he doesn't bother you. He should be back tomorrow." Ed didn't sound particularly sure about that statement.

"Nope, not a bother at all. Is it friendly? I mean can I pet it?" Been sometime since Johnny's had a pet.

[im-fullmetal.livejournal.com]

"He's pretty friendly, yeah," Ed said. He picked Cuddles back up and deposited the cat on Johnny's bed.

Cuddles seemed not to mind and padded over to sniff the other boy.

Johnny held out his hand before stroking it back over the cats fur, "Nice." Looking at Edward, Johnny offered, "It doesn't bother me, the cat. Not at all. It could stay indefinitely and I'd be cool with it."

Cuddles pushed his head into Johnny's hand.

Ed threw himself onto his bed. "Thanks, I appreciate that. But he's Alphonse's cat. Al wanted one for way too long to try to claim him now."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

He scratched behind the cat's ears and down his body, "So you glad to be in the dorms?"

[im-fullmetal.livejournal.com]

"It's not bad," Ed said. "I'm pretty adaptable though so whichever. You glad to be bad?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, these are pretty nice," he said, indicating the room with a wave of his hand. "Felt too open out at the cabins." Not that Johnny had an ounce of modesty. Except in certain situations, of course.

[im-fullmetal.livejournal.com]

"Makes sense," Edward agreed. He nodded at Cuddles who was flopping over on his side apparently friends for life with Johnny. "I think the cat likes you."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

He chuckled and looked down at the cat, and began to pet over the length of him, "I think it does too. It might hate to leave me come tomorrow if I keep this up."

Charlie went by Johnny's room, and hesitantly knocked on the door. "Hi? How are you settling in?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

The Thing went quickly behind his back and he sat up, "Uh, great! Hey, Charlie!"

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

Charlie came in, looking curiously at the arm behind his back. "What have you got back there?" she teased. "Or do I not want to know? Is this a guy thing that I shouldn't know about you?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

He chuckled and looked mildly embarrassed, but he so kept his hand behind his back, "No guy thing. Just, uh, something I appease my boredome with every once in a while."

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"A Slinky? Or a video game?" Charlie grinned and looked around the room, letting it drop. "Who are you rooming with? I'm up in 419 with Carmela."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

'It's Clobberin' Time' accidentally played off behind Johnny's back, and he shoved the toy under his pillow. "Edward Elric, you know him? And you're up a floor from me...aww, I just can't sneak in and see you so easily then." He teased. "Carmela. Don't think I've met her."

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

Charlie stopped, and sneaked a look at Johnny's pillow, then just kind of waaaandered over there. "Aww. And yeah, Carmela's really nice, she's in my Art class, so I got to know her the past couple weeks... I don't know Edward, but then, I still don't know half the people here." She grinned, getting ready to pounce. "Carmela talks to our mini-fridge."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Same with me. I still don't know a ton of them. Seems I forget names easily too," he admitted, watching Charlie sneak closer to him. If she wasn't careful, he'd pounce on her first. "What? Did you say she talks to your mini-fridge?"

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"Yup. It wants to get a tan."

Pounce! Charlie aimed for his arm, giggling uncontrollably. "Surrenderrrr!'

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"A ta--Oooh heyyyy!" He laughed and went to grab her around her waist enabling her hand to connect with his toy.

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"What is this? It's an action figure!" Charlie waved the Thing doll over her head, giggling. "What's his name, Johnny?" She tried to break away, but the laughter and being off-balance made it a half-hearted effort at best.

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

He tried to reach for it and contain her at the same time, which really didn't work all too well. He would have stood but Charlie was almost in his lap. "It's...I call him The Thing." He said with slight humiliation at being caught playing with a toy. "It's not what you think though! It's a...stress reliever!"

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

"A stress reliever?" Charlie was still giggling, but more from being in a good mood than at Johnny. "The Thing. Hello, Thing." She danced him up Johnny's arm, pleased with herself. "Where did you get him?"
