((Annnnd sorry also for spamming, I suck. This is also backdated to the flood, obviously.))

[Janis Ian has come to town, and she's done a little... decorating. Regina's red, white and pink decor has been significantly altered by thick black marker and the judicious application of scissors, and there are pictures and pages lying strewn all over the floor. The enormous vanity mirror has a message scrawled on it in lipstick: "WOMEN'S PRISON? NOW WHO'S THE LESBO?"

Janis herself is sitting at the screen, holding a big pink book.]

So, hey, Barge. I don't know if you all know this already or if I'm just, like, peeing into the wind, here, but I'd feel totally remiss if I didn't make sure I fulfilled my duty as a human being before blowing this pop stand: so just so you know, Regina George is a total monster.

And if you don't believe me? [She holds up the book, then starts reading aloud:] Tee Pole: Weird lizard-blooded bitch, can't make facial expressions to save her life. Damn, girl. Tim Drake: Major stalker. Rayne: Sorry about that wardrobe. Stephanie Brown: Sorry about that face.

[She tsks and shakes her head, setting the book back down.] If you want my advice? Destroy her. It's the only way.

[...What even is this flood, she is so very over it.]

It's pronounced T'Pol.

[fuglyslut]

Tee Pole works better for me.

[fuglyslut]

Sorry about, uh, that, though.

[with_discipline]

[...Well caring about how her name is pronounced would be illogical, right? Yeahs he's going to ignore that.]

What Ms. George chooses to write in the privacy [there is the faaaintest emphasis here] of her own room is not my concern.

[fuglyslut]

Seriously? [Maybe you ARE a lizard, Tee Pole.]

[with_discipline]

[You teenagers, you.] Why should it be?

[fuglyslut]

Be... cause it's a personal insult, and most people take those personally?

[with_discipline]

There is no logic in taking offense to an opinion you cannot change.

[fuglyslut]

Uh, yeah, that's why they're called hurt feelings. Not much logic to 'em.

Facetwin confusion is a goooo....

[nolongerhollow]

She sounds largely like a vapid child whose opinions aren't even worth considering. You on the other hand...hello again.

[fuglyslut]

Again? I think you've got me confused with someone else, dude.

"Vapid child," though, I like.

[nolongerhollow]

Really? You look exactly like a darkly-dressed young woman who was here last month. Brilliant. We talked books.

Ah well. Hello for the first time, then. I am Vlad.

It is painfully common for young women of a certain age and social status to be very cruel to everyone else around them. It is entirely unnecessary, and it makes me wince to see it. Real "class" does not involve throwing one's weight around.

[fuglyslut]

Vlad? Really? [Poser and a half, she's thinking, but...] Um, okay. Whatever. I'm Janis.

[She likes your style, anyway, 'Vlad.'] Yeah, pretty much. We just call them "bitches."

[nolongerhollow]

Well, you can use Vladislaus, but that is a bit of a mouthful by modern standards, apparently. [He was Vlad before it was cool, yo.]

...for their tendency to snap at people, I assume. Bah. It gives me more respect for those young people who are above such petty cruelties.

[fuglyslut]

Well, yeah, and because they're bitches.

But what was that you were saying about respect?

[nolongerhollow]

I am very old, and I have great experience of hu--people. There are many lessons a person learns in their lives. Not being selfish and cruel took me a long time. So I can't help but admire those who actually figured that out early.

[fuglyslut]

Of hu-- people, huh. [Yeah, she caught that.]

Seriously, man, you seem nice, but like-- Hot Topic much?

a little post flood okay? :v

[peektuttut]

Seriously?

k!

[fuglyslut]

Seriously what, Tim.

[peektuttut]

Are you going to keep a journal on everyone, or are we just special?

[fuglyslut]

I'm not keeping a journal on anyone. I'm not a stalker. I was just venting.

[peektuttut]

Uh-huh. Guess I just forgot what high school was like.

[fuglyslut]

Like the Barge is any better?

[peektuttut]

In a really weird way? Definitely.

[fuglyslut]

Haven't you been here for like a million years? You don't even remember high school.
