[Cafeteria] Haley Potter and the Hangover of Doom

Up until recently maintained as a museum, the childhood home of the Braddock family has been pressed into service as classroom space for the University. Additionally, the increased demands have led to the main ballroom being converted into a cafeteria for University students on a meal plan. The old library has been bolstered with college textbooks.

[Cafeteria] Haley Potter and the Hangover of Doom

Postby Haley Crusek » Sun May 20, 2018 2:41 pm

Haley slouched over, bleary-eyed, makeup missing, hair sticking up in numerous strange directions, her head pounding as if someone was slowly, and rhythmically tightening a vice around her skull. She was still wearing her pajamas, but the pants were inside out and the shirt was on backwards.

Anyone approaching would honestly almost smell the vodka being sweat out of her if they got close enough.

Her food, a plate of avocado toast and bacon was untouched in front of her.

Nailah carefully makes her way across the dining hall, carrying a plate full of breakfast sausages, beans and eggs in one hand while leaning on her crutch with the other, her journal tucked under her arm. When she spots Haley she increases her pace a little until she's close enough to put her plate down on the table.

"What happened to you?" she asks, praying that this is not something she should know.

"...vodka," she replied weakly, as if that explained everything.

She realized after a moment who it was and she looked up quickly at her friend, wincing at the sudden movement. "Nai! When did you get back from Muir?"

"Uhm..." she sits down and leans her crutch against the table before pulling her journal out from underneath her arm and flipping it open to the calendar sheet glued to the inside of the cover. "3 days ago. Dang, is this the first time we talked since then? I'm sorry..."

"Good," she replied weakly, another wave of nausea passing over her. She sipped her ice water and closed her eyes, hoping it would pass.

"How're you feeling, Nai?"

Haley nodded, the nausea at bay for now. “Do you feel like you’re remembering more, or is it all still pretty...like...short and stuff,” she asked.

“I mean...that’s getting better than it was, I think that’s what you said before at least...” she replied, wincing as she moved her head to more directly address her friend.

Haley looked like shit.

Haley winced at the exclamation, even though it wasn't even that loud. "I didn't *mean* to wipe part of his brain...I'd never do that intentionally. He invited me into his head to try and prove some dumb point about how he wasn't lying...and what he showed me made me really pissed off, because that new girl went from scary werewolf back to naked hot human girl in his arms, and at that point I got really mad, and I was in his brain with him so like....the room we were in caught on fire and then I broke off the connection but like...he passed out in real life."

“No, I mean like. Normally Bruce is only out when he’s half shark, he was out when he was human. “ Haley replied.

“I’m a danger to everyone around me,” she sniffled.

Nailah just looks at Haley for a moment with sad eyes, not sure what to say. Then leans over to give her a hug.

Haley looked conflicted for a moment as she leaned back and away from her friend, chewing her lip. She shook her head and sniffled, “No. I’m done breaking people’s brains.”

Sam walks into the cafeteria with Tereza, a bit of swagger in her step.

Evidently she's in a good mood, but the raucous flock accompanying her mental proximity probably isn't great for Haley's hangover.

Haley let out an audible gasp and clutched her head at the sound of the flock.

“Ow ow ow! What the fuck is that noise?” she whimpered, not noticing Sam.
