wwiiiOkay. Things. There were things happening, and Warren needed to... to do something about them. Frat had been skipped last week because of the holiday, and this week, after losing his entire world, he just hadn't had it in him to coordinate anything resembling fun and games. He'd meant to go to the library to help research over the weekend, and that hadn't happened, and he couldn't really remember the last time he'd eaten, though he was vaguely aware of stumbling off to raid common room fridges at least a couple of times in there.
It was stupid. He hadn't so much as thought about going home in the past two years, and now that it was gone...
He needed to be doing things, but he had no idea where to start. So he just kind of cuddled Thor and stared at the ceiling.
When had moping in his room alone with a bunny become the status quo, anyhow?
[Open post, closed door, IDEK. Someone smack him or something.]

Date: 2011-11-29 08:18 pm (UTC)Which would be hilarious, if it didn't conjure images of Topher trying to tug him across the ground by one wing or something.
(no subject)
Date: 2011-11-29 08:20 pm (UTC)It was a good thing Topher lacked the capability to sound actually threatening, or else this might come off as a little scary.

Date: 2011-11-29 08:26 pm (UTC)"A... professional kidnapper?"
But Warren ate Karla's cookies! He was indispensable!

Date: 2011-11-29 08:37 pm (UTC)Bee, Topher. It was called the Bee.
(no subject)
Date: 2011-11-29 08:40 pm (UTC)Just making sure that Topher wasn't going to get anyone killed in the name of science.
(no subject)
Date: 2011-11-29 08:42 pm (UTC)All because of the lack of flying ninja swords. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Date: 2011-11-29 08:49 pm (UTC)"Why are you so bent on poking at me, anyhow? I spent half my life being prodded at by doctors, Topher. You really don't need to get in on their shtick, too."
(no subject)
Date: 2011-11-29 08:53 pm (UTC)Well. Not if they didn't exist.
(no subject)
Date: 2011-11-29 08:57 pm (UTC)"... They're gone. My whole world is gone."
And that hint of indignation that had been creeping into his voice fell away, too, and Warren's gaze fell back down to...
Oh, hi Thor.
(no subject)
Date: 2011-11-29 09:00 pm (UTC)Topher faltered, softening.
"Sorry, man."
Said with about as much empathy as Topher was capable of. Which wasn't a ton -- but it was something, and Warren wasn't likely to have heard it from him before.

Date: 2011-11-29 09:40 pm (UTC)A little from someone who never gave a lot seemed like a great deal more than it otherwise might have been.
[Sorry! Kitty nap field ate me!]

Date: 2011-11-29 09:56 pm (UTC)Look at him, navigating actual conversation. Skilled, this one.
"So -- I was gonna go play a video game, if you wanted to..." he offered, holding up a
moddable, because I don't know anythinggame.(no subject)
Date: 2011-11-29 10:02 pm (UTC)"... Is that that new one that just came out? With dragons and giants and stuff?"
(no subject)
Date: 2011-11-29 10:11 pm (UTC)"Yep," Topher reported. "Haven't beaten it yet." Yet. "You wanna?"
(no subject)
Date: 2011-11-29 10:21 pm (UTC)"I've heard it's a pretty good game," he offered, attempting to leap back into something that resembled normal conversation. "I mean, you can... do pretty much anything you want, that sort of thing."
... Be warned, Topher. If Warren got his hands on the controls, he'd probably spend an hour or two just chasing butterflies.

Date: 2011-11-29 10:39 pm (UTC)Chasing butterflies... eh. He could live with that. At least until he got bored and decided to go slay some dragons or something.
