Characters: Hunter, Michi, and Mari.
Setting: The nearest motherfucking IHOP!
Content: With these three, idek what could happen or how this will end up so just preemptively BEWARE.
Summary: Hunter is taking her bffs out for a delicious breakfast brunch at IHOP to celebrate Rienzi's latest victory. And because it's Sunday morning, she's a little hungover, and wtf else is there to do?


Pancakes were, most definitely, always the answer. To life's problems, to Hunter's problems especially. Hunter could agree to that whole-heartedly, if nothing else in the world right then. Her stomach was practically grumbling out loud with the thought of a tall stack covered in syrup, butter, candy-corn, and mini-oreos. IHOP never failed to amaze her with it's potential and not to mention flexible hours. It would be a good breakfast. She didn't think she had stopped drinking since their victory on Friday night, and now that it was Sunday morning (afternoon she corrected), she was starting to feel a bit off. She needed to eat something other than junk food, and she needed to drink something other than whiskey out of cheap plastic cups. Rienzi's victory had been amazing, and she couldn't be more thrilled, but maybe it was time to cut the weekend short and try to get back into the daily grind.

Besides, if she got cocky, she might throw the whole season. She would need to start practices and things up again starting Monday, and making sure they were in shape to destroy their next opponent, no matter what house it was.

The idea to go to IHOP had been more for her own purposes, she had intended to go and eat herself until she burst whether people came or not. She had put out the celebratory message and invite, and she couldn't say she wasn't thrilled when Michi agreed to come along within minutes, followed by-proxy by Mari. They hadn't had a chance to hang out much since homecoming, and Hunter was kind of curious how their nights had unfolded. It would make good conversation over a delicious meal. Sure, she was paying, and they intended to eat all they could, but she didn't mind a bit. Hunter was never the type of girl to be tight with her pocketbook or anything else. It was going to be a blast. It was also kind of late, a little after noonish, and she had just crawled from bed not long ago. She needed to get a move on if she wanted to eat.

She got dressed quickly, pulling her hair up until a messy ponytail, and grabbing a hoodie off of the back of her desk chair, pulling it over her head. She was freezing lately, although she expected that it was more of a psychological issue; NOLA was only a couple of degrees cooler than her hometown this time of year, but she had felt like a popsicle for the last week, and she couldn't figure why. She just hoped she wasn't catching a cold or something. When Michi arrived to take her keys and warm up the truck, Hunter handed them over happily, before finishing getting dressed, shoving her feet into her sneakers and taking one last look in her full length mirror. With a grin and a thumbs up, she picked up her wallet and shoved it into the pocket of her sweater, before bounding out of the room and down the stairs, out onto the campus.

She jogged across the common grounds, toward the student parking lot, spotting her truck easily with the license plate she had attached to the front. "Y'all bitches can fight for shotgun," she informed the two other girls as she neared closer, pushing some stray hair away from her face. "But shotgun controls the music."

Michi had dressed in record time, pulling on her jeans from the past few days celebration and her favorite sneakers. She barely babbled out the plan to Mari before practically dragging her out the door.

Michi had to hike herself up into the truck to start it and then hopped down somewhat ungracefully to join Mari as they waited for Hunter. "SHOTTY! NO BLITZ!" he called out in response to Hunter. She loved sitting shotgun in the truck as there were so many buttons to push.

She scrambled into the front seat and made herself comfortable before adventuring along the dash and poking at the knobs and buttons.

Lucky for Mari, unlike her two friends she had actually bothered to get properly dressed before Michi had practically dragged her out of the door. She wasn't really complaining though, since pancakes were a good excuse, besides Mari needed them to soak up celebration alcohol that had been happening all weekend.

Pouting, she duly climed into the bitchseat, grumbling a little that Michi should choose something awesome to make up for such a snub.

Hunter was grinning as she climbed into the cab, buckling herself in and not even bothering to bat Michi's hands away from the various knobs and buttons along the dash. The only movements the blonde made were to turn the heat on low, turn the radio on, and grab a pair of sunglasses from one of the cup-holders.

"I'm seriously pumped as fuck for these pancakes," Hunter informed them, as she backed out of the space a little hastily, coming a little too close to backing into another student's car, before driving off in a tear from the lot. "I think I'm going to get steak and eggs, too. And a fruit salad. And a tropical island twist to drink.. oh, and a fucking coffee, hell yeah."

Michi flipped around the stations, finding a bouncy station that was fitting enough for the three of them.

"Oh! Me too! I haven't had pancakes in sooo effin long! I want a tall stack and eggs and toast! And a huge never ending cup of coffee and some orange juice! And some fuckin bacon!" she said cheerfully.

She bounced in her seat thinking about the delightful minature heart attack that was awaiting them at I-Hop.

"I'm gunna eat twelve pancakes" Mari joined in, yelling over the music and looking out of the window. Hunter drove pretty fast and outside was whizzing by in a blur.

"I think I drank my weight in vodka this weekend" she moaned, putting on her sunglasses and closing her eyes.
itsnotjessica From: [info]itsnotjessica Date: October 10th, 2010 04:53 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Baby, don't even say 'vodka' to me right now," Hunter replied, almost feeling her gorge rising a little at the thought. Once she had something to eat, she knew she'd feel better, but with her stomach so empty and grumbly, it was surprisingly hard to think about drinking right then. Quite a feat for Hunter.

"I take it though that I wasn't the only hoe in this car out celebrating my ass off lately?" she asked curiously, pressing hard on the breaks as they came to a red light. Her long fingers drummed impatiently against the steering wheel the entire time they were stopped, before they were off again like a bullet.

"Oh god, so much vodka," Michi groaned. "I promised Keegan last week that I would get wasted with him after the game," she laughed. "And then there was last week," she shot a shame-faced look back at Mari. "Too many celebratory drinks," she giggled.

Her stomach lurched a little when Hunter hit the breaks and then again when she took off. "You know me and Mari though. We're practically champs," he grinned.
londonloves From: [info]londonloves Date: October 10th, 2010 05:09 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Please don't mention last fucking week. Where were you the whole night, bitch?" Mari questioned Hunter, as she could see IHOP in the distance coming closer at an alarming rate.
itsnotjessica From: [info]itsnotjessica Date: October 10th, 2010 05:15 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Uh-huh, champions of my heart," Hunter replied, mock-dramatically as she batted her eyes in Michi's direction. When Mari asked where she had been, the blonde only offered a little shrug, her hand reaching out to turn up the music as Magic by B.o.B & that guy from Weezer came onto the station.

"I was around. I was kinda pissed I didn't even get nominated, but I said fuck it and just hung out. I didn't even see Gray until the whole dance was over, I was just shooting the shit with whoever. Ya know how it works for superheroes, we need to go where we're needed on a moment of notice," she replied.
gimmeskittles From: [info]gimmeskittles Date: October 10th, 2010 05:22 pm (UTC) (Link)
Michi laughed. "You know it baby."

The mention of Gray had her sinking lower in her seat. Oh god. She knew she couldn't keep it in for much longer, it had only been a week but it was the longest she had ever kept something from Hunter and it was killing her. Get it together, she thought to herself.

"You can be my homecoming queen," Michi grinned half-heartedly.
londonloves From: [info]londonloves Date: October 10th, 2010 05:53 pm (UTC) (Link)
At the mention of Gray, Mari also tensed up and waited for Michi to fill the silence. Mari hoped she would take her advice and never speak of it again, but she never really knew how Michi would deal witht hings like this. I mean,it's not like she went around kissing Gray every day.

itsnotjessica From: [info]itsnotjessica Date: October 10th, 2010 06:10 pm (UTC) (Link)
If Hunter noticed either awkward reactions to the mention of Gray's name, she didn't show it. She was generally oblivious, just focusing on the nearing restaurant. It looked busy, and her biggest concern in that moment was procuring a booth. Preferably toward the back of the seating area, where they could people watch. And people mock, one of Hunter's favorite parts of dining out anywhere.

"I'll always be your homecoming queen," the blonde assured Michi, as she slowed the truck a bit, turning on her blinker and pulling into the parking lot, cutting someone off in the process. "I know ya wouldn't pick any other girl."
gimmeskittles From: [info]gimmeskittles Date: October 10th, 2010 06:26 pm (UTC) (Link)
Michi was relieved that Hunter hadn't noticed or pushed any further. The giant truck was not the place to tell her about last Saturday night. She slid out of the truck and landed heavily on the pavement.

"You know it," Michi said brightly as she frolicked around the truck. "Oh Captain, my captain!" she looped arms with Hunter and skipped toward the pancake heaven.
londonloves From: [info]londonloves Date: October 10th, 2010 06:44 pm (UTC) (Link)
Mari's stomach unknotted as nothing seemed to have changed, Mari would just have to remember not to bring up Gray. Not that she would, that piece of shit.

Stepping out of the car, Mari bumped it shut with her butt and skipped along aheead of the other two girls, barging through the doors and holding them open.

"Smell that? Smells like breakfast!"
itsnotjessica From: [info]itsnotjessica Date: October 10th, 2010 07:07 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Smells like amazing," Hunter agreed as she reached the doors with Michi still hung on her arm. She glanced around at their seating options, glad to see there was at least one booth left, even if it wasn't as far back as she would have preferred. When their waitress came to seat them, Hunter requested said booth, sliding in once both Mari and Michi had sat down.

She picked up the menus that had been left for them as the waitress walked away, peering down at the pages. "Do I or do I not look under twelve?"
gimmeskittles From: [info]gimmeskittles Date: October 10th, 2010 08:39 pm (UTC) (Link)
Michi was pleased with their seating situation. They were just far enough back to still people watch but they would have to keep their ruckus down to a dull roar.

"Oh baby, you don't look a day over twelve and a half," Michi teased. "Why did she leave so quick?! I want god damn pancakes," she pouted.
londonloves From: [info]londonloves Date: October 10th, 2010 09:57 pm (UTC) (Link)
"No" Mari said simply to Hunter. "But you could go for the over 55's special" she said smiling sweetly.

"Wave at her, Hunter. You've got the longest arms."
itsnotjessica From: [info]itsnotjessica Date: October 12th, 2010 11:08 pm (UTC) (Link)
While she fixed Michi with an appreciative smile, Hunter slid Mari an elbow; playful, but still rough. When it was suggested that she flag down the waitress, Hunter rolled her eyes, although she did raise both hands in an extremely lanky wave. "Why is it always me? No matter what we're doing, rescuing midgets from the bottom of wells or ordering pancakes, I always gotta lead y'all," she teased, settling down a bit when their waitress finally came back over to their table.

Fixing the woman with a wide smile, Hunter reclined more comfortably into her seat. "Ya both know what we're gettin'?"
gimmeskittles From: [info]gimmeskittles Date: October 12th, 2010 11:39 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Because look at us," Michi said as she meekly held up Mari's arm and her own. "We're so little," she pouted.

"I want the face pancakes!" Michi said to the waitress. "With like a bowl of candy corns. And coffee, like an endless cup of coffee with some orange juice... bacon, two pieces of sourdough toast, and... mozzarella sticks," she said brightly. "Don't judge me," she said looking between her friends. "I just had a kid," she giggled.
londonloves From: [info]londonloves Date: October 13th, 2010 05:53 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Baby, I'll start judging you when the kid's a year old" Mari joked, leaning over Michi and pointing to what she wanted. Blueberry pancakes and a..cheeseburger? There was no accounting for taste.
itsnotjessica From: [info]itsnotjessica Date: October 13th, 2010 09:06 pm (UTC) (Link)
Hunter peering over at the menu as well, before looking up at the waitress. "Me too! Three scary face pancakes, with extra candy corn.. and uhhhh, some pumpkin pancakes, and steak & eggs, some bacon, one of those tropical juice things.. uhhh, some coffee. And how about a fruit cup?" she asked, pausing for a moment to add, "And I haven't had no kids."

She inclined her head a bit more toward Michi and Mari before she added, "Thank fuck, can ya even picture Gray's ears on the side of a baby's skull?" in a louder-than-intended whisper.
gimmeskittles From: [info]gimmeskittles Date: October 13th, 2010 09:45 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Sweet, that means I have ten more months judge free!" she giggled.

"I could not imagine that," she laughed. "You'd have adorable dumbo babies but that boy should not procreate. He can barely handle himself... he was so drunk last weekend..." Michi cut herself short and leaned back in her seat. That was a close one.
londonloves From: [info]londonloves Date: October 13th, 2010 09:52 pm (UTC) (Link)
Mari couldn't hold a loud bark of laughter about Gray's ears, especially after the fight in her journal, and hid her face behind the menu while she tried to regain a little composure.

Thankfully, the sunglasses hid the panic from her face as Michi nearly let slip. She gave a kick under the table, but it could have landed on either of the girls.

"Oh shit, let's not talk about stinky boys" she said, which was out of character itself. "I've had enough of them this weekend."
itsnotjessica From: [info]itsnotjessica Date: October 13th, 2010 10:05 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Trust me, I have no plans to let him anywhere near me without a c-- ow, fuck me! What was that for?!" Hunter replied, her eyebrows furrowing up as she hunched over a bit in an attempt to reach under the table and rub her wounded leg. She fixed Mari with a pout.

"I had no clue you were givin up dick all of a sudden, don't kick my ass for it," she teased, tongue sticking out. "Was your homecoming date that bad of a lay?"
gimmeskittles From: [info]gimmeskittles Date: October 13th, 2010 10:13 pm (UTC) (Link)
Michi was certain that the kick was meant for her and she sunk down deeper into her seat. "Hey! I was her homecoming date! And I'm an amazing lay!" Michi joked.

"Are you giving up d?" Michi turned to Mari. "I didn't know that. Marianne why don't you tell me these things!?"
londonloves From: [info]londonloves Date: October 14th, 2010 08:25 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Fuck! I'm not giving up any dick. You have to actually get some before you give it up." She pouted right back at the other two, preferring the subject to be steering towards her own lovelife rather than Michiko's right now.
itsnotjessica From: [info]itsnotjessica Date: October 15th, 2010 02:37 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Oh yeah, I guess that's true," Hunter agreed, unable to help but chuckle a little at the realization. "How is that going, by the way? Still no freshmen willing to put their hand up your skirt?" the blonde questioned, tilting her head a bit as she grinned at her friend. She was glad they all had thick-skin; what was the sense of friend if you couldn't rip on each other and laugh about it. She did mean every word of torment to be in good fun.
gimmeskittles From: [info]gimmeskittles Date: October 17th, 2010 04:02 am (UTC) (Link)
"Oh there are plenty of boys out there who would love to put their hands up our gorgeous Mari's skirt," Michi beamed. "Maybe you could hook up with that cute little sophomore, you know... the one who barely knows where he is," she giggled. "Or Vinnie, he's cute and loud. Or anyone on the quodpot team, we could totally hook you up," Michi teased gently.
londonloves From: [info]londonloves Date: October 18th, 2010 05:41 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Ew, a sophomore?" Mari scrunched her face, though it quickly changed when she spotted the waitress bringing over their food. Setting it down in front of them, Mari gave a longing noise for her burger, picking out the onions and taking a massive bite.

"Seriously though" she continued with a mouth full of food. "Who wouldn't want me? I'm part of a gang of hot bitches."
itsnotjessica From: [info]itsnotjessica Date: October 18th, 2010 07:55 pm (UTC) (Link)
Hunter grinned as their food arrived, staring down as the waitress unloaded all of the plates in front of them. Mari's noise of longing for her burger about summed up everything Hunter was feeling. She wasn't sure where to start, so she decided with the candycorn, popping a small handful into her mouth as Mari spoke.

"That's what we're saying. Ya need to get laid, you're makin' us look bad," Hunter replied, still grinning. "So just blow a sophomore already and become a true hot bitch."
gimmeskittles From: [info]gimmeskittles Date: October 21st, 2010 08:34 pm (UTC) (Link)
"Oh seriously," Michiko said, her eyes getting big she she looked at her food. "I mean come on Marianne, who wouldn't want a piece of your fine ass," she grinned.
londonloves From: [info]londonloves Date: October 25th, 2010 12:22 pm (UTC) (Link)
Mari nodded, stealing a little of Hunter's drink. "I mean, how hard can it be to find a hot English bassist in New Orleans?"
