[color=#d8ff66][b]“That’s fucked. Aren’t they endangered?”[/b][/color] Julius replied, scandalized. [color=#d8ff66][b]“Wait, do they even have pixies in Alaska?”[/b][/color] he added, almost as an aside to himself. Zoology had never been his strong point, but he’d seen plenty of evidence of the northern state’s diverse wildlife already, despite rarely emerging from the heated inside rooms of the university. Tourists had stopped to oo and ah at a herd of caribou on the side of the road on the bus ride from the airport, and he’d heard tales of wild bears inhabiting the vast pine forests. Yet he was yet to spy a pixie. [color=00a651][b]“Yes, the hair is real. And yes, that is really my natural hair colour,”[/b][/color] she continued, before turning away from him to answer Ziggy’s question. Privately, Julius still had his doubts but there was nothing to be gained from pushing the matter. Instead he put his feet up on the stack of empty pizza boxes and leaned back to stare at the ceiling, only coming back to earth to give Ylva a filthy look as she snatched one of the slices from his box. The last slice was looking awful lonely all on it’s own, so he scooped it up and gave it a new home in his mouth. Or at least he was halfway through doing so when a loud voice calling his name in his ear made him jolt, dropping the pizza. It landed heartbreakingly face down, spilling it’s delicious ingredients across the carpet. If he was the crying kind of guy the scene might have brought a tear to his eye. Julius turned angrily to the perpetrator with a fist bunched… Oh god, how had Lou managed to find him again? The guy was like a bloodhound with Julius scent on his nose, and no desire to give it up any time soon. [color=8e51c2][b]"Hey, nice party we are having!"[/b][/color] he called out, before chomping half of a pot brownie in one oversized bite. [color=#d8ff66][b]“I don’t know this man,”[/b][/color] Julius mumbled, his head hanging in shame as Lou gave off a beaming brown grin. The others in the group were staring, possibly in awe at Lou’s lack of awareness. Julius was staring too, only registering the two arrivals when one gave off a small hello and the other pulled out a sex doll… you know, as you do. [color=6A5ACD][b]"Here. I think she done taken a shine to ya,”[/b][/color] the unnamed entrant said, passing the doll over to Lou, who was looking heart-attack levels of excited. This was getting too much to stand. Lou was embarrassing himself, and worse off, Julius by association. It was for Lou’s own good that Julius stood and took him by the wrist, leading him away from the bemused group and into the small kitchenette in the corner of the room. [color=#d8ff66][b]“Listen, Lou. You gotta calm it down a little, man,” [/b][/color]he said, feeling like a overprotective mother as he wet a tea towel under the tap and wiped the brownie off of Lou’s face. [color=#d8ff66][b]“I get that you got mad game-”[/b][/color] he broke off to glare pointedly at the sex doll in Lou’s arms.[color=#d8ff66][b] “But you’re dragging the good name of Dorm One through the dirt. Can’t you just act normal, at least for tonight?” [/b][/color]he pleaded.
