Room 228, Wednesday night

[fh_jackass]

Logan returned to his room after the disasterous night in the common room, planning to get a shower and change out of his bloody clothes.

So the spell to gain superpowers hadn't worked. In fact, it had backfired completely. Pretty much everyone except him had gained powers of some sort.

At least his birthday had been decent. Got to stake a vampire during class, and that didn't happen every day. And Angel'd provided a distraction (and a present) while Veronica set up a surprise dinner.

The party the next night had been fun, too, even if he'd had to share it with Jake. Angel passing out after had been less nice.

He hadn't intended to fight with Bel at the clinic, nor to fall asleep next to Angel's bed and not wake up until the next morning. He was still worried about the vampire, but it didn't seem like there was much he could do. He wasn't a Chosen One and didn't have any magical or scientific knowledge.

For now, all he wanted to do was to get some sleep. He reached his room and frowned when the key wouldn't go into the lock. Then he peered down at the doorknob and noticed there was no longer a keyhole. He stared at it.

"Oh, fuck," he muttered.

Rory, who had been hauling things up to her room for the better part of the evening, passed by Logan's room and stared.

"Holy crap what happened to you? Did you get in another fight? Are you okay?" she asked, her eyes wide with concern.

[fh_jackass]

Logan shook his head. "My nose just started bleeding suddenly," he said. "Okay, am I way stoned or is there no keyhole here?" he asked, pointing to his doorknob.

Rory raised an eyebrow at the knob. "No, there isn't. How weird. Though I wouldn't sign off on you not being stoned, too," she added, peering up at him and trying to get a good look at his eyes.

Callisto had been heading downstairs, when she caught sight of Logan and Rory in the hall. "Logan? What happened to you?"

[fh_jackass]

"I'm not stoned," Logan told Rory, and muttered, "unfortunately." He nodded at Callisto. "Sudden nosebleed. I'm fine, but I seem to have encountered a slight obstacle between myself and non-bloody clothing."

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Callisto frowned. "You lose your keys?"

[fh_jackass]

"Lost the keyhole," Logan said tiredly, and gestured at the doorknob.

"Do you have any more books from SC in there?" Rory asked suspiciously.

[fh_jackass]

"No!" Logan exclaimed. "No more magic. It is clearly not my forte."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Well, keyholes don't just disappear!" Rory, ever observant, said. "Anyway. You need new clothes. And I don't think I have any boy clothes...." She blushed to the roots of her hair and looked over at Callisto.

"Unlike some people," Callisto raised an eyebrow at Rory. "I keep track of what's in my wardrobe. I've got a couple of shirts you can borrow." She very pointedly did not mention who the shirts belonged to.

[fh_jackass]

Logan looked down at his shirt, then looked at Cal's chest in her leather armor and gave her a slightly puzzled look.

Callisto rubbed her forehead. "Delightful as you'd look in a breastplate, I didn't mean that. They're, uh...Angel's."

[fh_jackass]

"Oh!" Logan said. "Yeah, that'd probably fit a little better. "

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"So you want 'em?" Callisto asked. "You got a choice between black, black, and black."

[fh_jackass]

"Hm," Logan said, tapping his finger against his chin. "Don't have anything in a nice chartruese?"

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"No," A hint of an evil grin appeared on Callisto's face. "Although a good friend might seek to rectify that glaring omission."

[fh_jackass]

"Black it is, then," Logan said. "Maybe he should have some new shirts when he gets back from the clinic? Just for variety."

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"I think that's a very good idea," Callisto grinned. "Would you say he's a summer or a spring?"

[fh_jackass]

"Which one puts him in yellow?" Logan grinned.

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"Summer...I think," Callisto snickered. "Hang on, I'll just go get you the shirts."

Since all the vending machines on the upper floors were out of Pip's favorite soda, he was forced to search other levels.


He finally made it to floor two when a very odd sight met his eye.

"Dude, what happened?"

_{[[*coughs* Sorry. Totally didn't notice I wasn't logged in. Feel free to delete the anon comment.]]}

[fh_jackass]

"Random nosebleed and disappearing keyhole," Logan sighed.

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

Pip tried not to snicker.

It kind of failed.

He grinned at Logan. "Need a change of clothes? I think you're about my size."

[fh_jackass]

"Appreciated," Logan said, rubbing his forehead. "Cal's on it already, though." He stared at the doorknob. "I'm going to crash in the attic," he told it, "and tomorrow morning, there will be a keyhole there again."

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

"Well, if worse comes to worse we can just break it down. Or maybe sever the locking mechanism. Maybe talk to one of the Elrics? I think that alchemy stuff that they do could create a keyhole. Maybe. I don't really understand it that well."

[fh_jackass]

Logan shook his head. "Nope. Not an issue because tomorrow there will be a keyhole!" He glared at the door, then rested his forehead against the doorframe. "I hope."

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

Pip patted Logan on the shoulder. "I'm sure there will be. After all, if you tell things to do something enough, they become true. I think. There was a magazine article about it in the hotel lobby. I might've been reading it wrong."

[fh_jackass]

Logan peered at Pip. "Did you have something to do with this?"

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

Pip shook his head. "Nope. If it was me it'd be more likely to involve glitter. Ya know, punishment fitting the crime and all that. Plus, I'm not the one for nifty abillities to make keyholes disappear."

[demonbelthazor]

Bel just happened to be passing by. Snickering.

[fh_jackass]

After getting a clean shirt from Cal, Logan headed up to the attic.
