Most of the preparations for the afternoon's frat session were already in place, so Arthur had allowed himself the, up until Fandom rare, luxury of some time to slouch about by himself. He was starting to consider investing in a dart board; if nothing else, it could make for some decent practice, right?

For now, that just amounted to fancy, though. Instead he had a book and a radio set attuned to a local news programme. The volume was very, very low, but it was still distracting enough that he was starting to find himself forced to debate whether learning about radio was more important than having some quality time with his book.

One day, he was going to run out of French sci-fi. One day.

There was a knock on the door. Just because a certain someone had decided that certain edible things needed to be somewhere other than in her room, and the common room was too far away, and this was the closest (half-)open door.

Which was to say that it was Kate with her last box of muffins.

vanillajello: (All amused at you.)

Kate couldn't help looking a little amused by that as she stepped into the room. People just didn't act like that where she was from.

"Morning, Arthur," she said. "Would you like some muffins?"

vanillajello: (Talking.)

Kate couldn't care less as long as he didn't actually try to boss her around.

"Oh good," she grinned, going to put the box down on the table, "Now I don't have to bother with walking all the way to the common room to get rid of these."

vanillajello: (Smiling sideways.)
From: [personal profile] vanillajello
Which she was going to do soon enough. But.

"And what do we say when people are nice enough to randomly give us muffins?" Kate asked with a slight smirk and a raised eyebrow, after it became obvious he probably wasn't going to volunteer a thank you.

vanillajello: (Smiling and looking away from you.)
From: [personal profile] vanillajello
That was more or less what she'd expected to hear, really.

"No, Arthur, that's not it," she snorted. "Want to guess again?"

She was already wandering towards the door, though. It wasn't like she was defending a principle or anything.

vanillajello: (Smiling.)
From: [personal profile] vanillajello
Oh, he'd been perfectly polite with her previously. She'd just anticipated this kind of behavior for this situation, because she had some experience with people of privilege expecting to just... get things.

Leto could be blamed for that. And for her possible slight prejudices against Arthur.

She gave him a smile. "That's more like it. Enjoy the muffins," she said, and then disappeared out the door.
