Slightly Less Animated Than Usual [Open]
Who: Starfire and anyone who wants to join her!
Where: Media Library
Summary: Starfire's received news that her love has returned to stasis in the pod caverns. Her escape is the bright and colorful world of cartoons.
Warnings: Nothing too serious here! Some potential sadness if that line of conversation is followed, but a little fun can be had here.
Visitors to the Media Library today will find a rather distressing sound coming from one of the watching pods. It's a croakish, scratchy sound that might be called a laugh...if the listener were underwater, inebriated, and otherwise less able than usual to discern the sound. The sound contains the basic elements of a laugh, anyway. It's loud, sudden, and presumably in response to funny events on the screen!
In this case, a bacon-eared and sausage-lipped breakfast monster is in hot pursuit of a banana boat. Colorful cherry-men are yelling in musical-sounding gibberish, directing themselves down a river of orange juice in their attempt to avoid the meat monster. There's a dip in the river, and the little banana boat flies---only to slip on the air (how does that work?) and do a flip into the monster's mouth.
Thus ends one segment of this bizarre cartoon. Starfire is clutching a small pillow from her room and laughing at the screen. Or trying to, anyway.

She wished for a brighter day. "What enjoyment have you had recently?"
no subject
"Lately? I guess there hasn't been too much of that. Howard's still recovering from what happened with the Daligig, honestly. And Allenby and Simon didn't come out of it too hot, either. And I had to visit Medical
gasp how terrible. But they'll be all right."no subject
She smiled. "We should celebrate when you are all healed!"
no subject
He pointed a thumb back at himself. "I'm already healed. I think it'll take the others a little longer... but I'm sure everyone'll be more than happy to celebrate with you."
no subject
"Wonderful! Then I will greet them soon." She failed to mention, of course, that it would have to wait until she was feeling better.

He paused. "By the way, is there something... wrong?"
no subject
"My boy-friend has been returned to stasis."

If it had been Ildraniath who had been returned to the pods, what would he have felt? Desolation, maybe. Sorrow. Like he'd failed her, somehow, even knowing that his own actions had little to do with the reason she was really gone.
Zouichi put an arm about Starfire's shoulders in a sort of half-hug, similar to the ones he sometimes gave Howard. "...I'm sorry. But I'm sure he'll wake up soon."
no subject
"Perhaps. I hope that he rests well. But I will miss him greatly."
no subject
"Is there anything you need? Or anything that he'd like upon waking up? I don't think either of us can control whether he's awake or asleep, but maybe he'd appreciate a kind of... welcome-home present?" Perhaps it would help Starfire to think of her boyfriend's return, rather than his absence.
no subject
"We once remodeled his vehicle when it was damaged. Perhaps he would like something similar?"
