*Meg is in the bar. With coffee. Take that, bar!*

Let me put it this way, *Meg says brightly.* Andrew's easy to distract.

*The color drains from Xander's face.*

... Thanks, Meg. Thanks for that.

[balletrat]

*Meg gives him a kindly look.*

Oh, come on, Xander. We share a room. You knew that already. Get used to it.

*Xander's vocie is slightly plaintive.* I know it. I accept it. I don't ponder it.

[balletrat]

You asked, *Meg points out reasonably.*

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

The question I asked had little-to-nothing to do with the reply I got. You're worse than An--

*He winces.*

[balletrat]

An-

*Meg looks puzzled - after all, she knows many 'Ans'- and then comprehends.*

Oh.

*That An, too, she knows.*

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Not as bad as she is- was- is, but pretty darn close.

[balletrat]

She asked if Andrew was gay, too, *Meg says thoughtfully.* Why does everyone always do that?

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

Because he--

*Xander shuts his mouth, realizing that listing the many, many reasons that people ask this would not be wise.*

[balletrat]

*Meg eyes him.*

It gets awfully unnerving, you know. I'm starting to wonder if I really am a guy and don't know it.

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

*Xander gives Meg an entirely-too-innocent "Hmm, isn't that interesting" look.*

[balletrat]

*Meg looks cross.*

Look, just because I have a flat chest -

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

You, uh, do? I never noticed a ... flat ... chest. On you. Um. Not, of course, like I looked.

[balletrat]

*Meg snorts.*

You should see the girl they hired to play me in the film. Like thiiiiiis -

*She gestures vaguely.*

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

*Xander blinks, completely failing to comprehend.*

Oh. Right. You've got a movie, too? Figures. Everyone here has a movie. I'll bet I have a movie, complete with spinoff TV series and action figures.

[balletrat]

I have two books, a musical and a movie, *Meg corrects him, rather proudly.* You do have a TV show, though.

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

Good on you. *He blinks.* Wait, for real? Am I played by Tom Cruise?

[balletrat]

*Meg blinks back.* Who's Tom Cruise?

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

Guessing that's a no?

*Xander shakes his head.* Never mind about Tom Cruise. Just a foolish hope of mine that I will someday be admired by thousands of teenage girls I've never met.

[balletrat]

Well, I haven't seen the film, *Meg says, with a small shrug.* For all I know, you're played by Bach. But I think Warren has a copy -

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

*He nods.* Warren would.

[balletrat]

I saw mine, *Meg volunteers.* It was kind of funny seeing what they'd got wrong. Although they got the bit about the sheep right.

[xan-shaped.livejournal.com]

*Xander raises an eyebrow.* Sheep?

[balletrat]

*Meg makes a face.* The sheep. In the opera. It was a bloody stupid idea, all they did was get in the way.
