Welcome to Gaia! ::

Leonette was not a person that tended to loaf about in her pajamas all day. She was the abhorrent type in dorm school that would be dressed and preened by 6. And then again at 7. Then at 8. She just liked to be sure she looked her best. Even when in the confines of her own dorm room and where no one who see her. Because what if someone DID? Oh god she'd have never lived it down. So when the knock came to her dorm door, Leonette jumped and rushed to the mirror on the side. Everything in place? Good.

Opening the door though, Leonette felt a wave of relief. If anyone she could let she her in a state of less then perfect it was Marit. After all, when you've done sleep overs and had to see another's bedhead just as bad as your own, things were dandy.

"Mariiiiitttt~" In a happy tune, Leonetter grabbed her friend and almost literally dragged her into the room. "I feel like I haven't seen you in forever! Where have you been?"

"Well, I guess if you need to keep your arm that badly." Leonette let go, smiling. "So baby sitting huh? It's got to be better then sitting here about getting ready for whatever stupid school event goes up next. I mean...It just can be so..boring sometimes, you know?" Plopping herself on the bed, she made sure her skirt was neat and un wrinkled. Old habits. They don't ever really die.
"And I LIKE the Land Before Time! It's cute. But then again, not enough to watch it that much. Welcome back!"

Making a noise that only a female around the ages of 15-17 could make, Leonette bounced onto the balls of her feet. She was typical in the sense she loved gifts. "Oh, oh....um..." She stopped her bouncing momentarily. "I...no...you got me that a while ago..." She flopped onto her bed, brain trying to over analyze the situation, face contorting with focus. She'd gone into 'solve this puzzle mode'.
"Its not a plush kitten. I know that much." Leonette had been talking about getting a plush cat for a while. And Marit for all she know might get her one. Besides, plush kittens didn't fit into pockets. At least not normally.

Eye bugged out wide, and breath was sucked in. Oh of all the- "I. Hate. You." Yanking the finger trap from her friend's hand Leonette had already shoved her thumbs into the holes. It was a simple gift, but it was always a good one. finger traps broke easy, and one could never have enough finger trap puzzles. At least not Leonette. And while she could get her fingers out easily, the puzzle still provided her with joy.
Plus it had come from a friend, which always was a, well, a plus!
"Ah, I put my thumbs to far in!" This why why they liked to break on her. She would always see if she if she could make her fingers touch and still pull them out. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it did not.
Today it did not.
"Hmmmmmm." She was glaring at her hands now, as if they were to blame.
"I think I got stuck...again. help please?" This wouldn't be the first time Marit had to help her get out of a puzzle. Sometimes, even with amazing brain power, you still could mess up.

"Noooo~" She whined, and Leonette never whined. Unless it was if she had to. Which was usual with Marit. They just understood, sometimes, well, things happened. And they tended to happen alot. As her thumbs were free of the deadly finger trap, Leonette hugged Marit like she was her life live. "I AM SAVED~" Cue big hug moment. "As a reward, do you want some cookies I've been saving? We can also watch a movie if you like. Or play one of the puzzles I brought from home!"
Before she could even move, Leonette was already moving to show her friend her hidden cookie stash. "So, why did you come by? Just to say hello?"

"I just got them like, 3 days ago okay! besides it'd look bad if I ate them all. With you here I can feel better about having eaten half the box already." Places the cookies on the tiny table, (clearlt closer to Marit), Leonette was careful to place the finger trap onto her bedside table. She didn't have any plans of getting rid of it, no sir! She'd have her revenge...someday.

"Hmm, I got another rubix cube. I mean, I love playing with em, but I solve em so fast it's like 'Give me something new'." She motioned to the top of her dresser. Perhaps the only littered part of her room. Rubixs cubes. Overflowing. And worst part was that they were all solved. "But, dad found this new one right, is a sphere. And, he said he'd buy me one if I did well come finals. I mean, It's a rubix ball! And damn I want some rubix balls! Think of the possibilities!" She paused, thinking on what she just said. "Uh...hope it didn't come out wrong." She blushed, laughing softly at herself.

"OH SHUT UP!" Face as red as a cherry, Leonette scrabbled to grab a pillow and chuck it at her friend. "You're horrible you know that?" She kept smacking her with the pillow. Fit over, Leonette huffed and plopped back onto the bed, face still red. "And like...those balls are gross. Like, seriously. Uh..." She rolled her eyes. "Just don't. Mention. It. Again." While her tone was dead serious, but, given it was playful and they were BFFs since forever, it was still open for jabs.
"I have Guess Who, and scrabble, and I think I have battleship. Mom says I need less puzzles and more normal games. She took away my 3D puzzle! It was one of those spaceship ones too."
