Aqua nodded. "Ah," she replied. "OK. Well if you want to do something later let me know OK?" She wanted to get away from Lorelai and Ian. Them being together still bothered her and she still wasn't over him. After eating she planned to cook some more and then go off to do other things. Maybe call her dad since she had been putting it off for weeks; or maybe watch some T.V. in the rec room.
She looked to Jumper and waited for his response.

Lorelai smiled at the teacher and took back the bowl of batter. Hearing that she wouldn't have to cook for much longer, she smiled again as she had gotten a lot hungrier seeing all the food passing through. "Okay," she said, happily as she watched and waited for the batter to cook. She turned around for a moment to glance at everyone there. There were a lot of people there all gathered after a day's training. She smiled a little at them all and then turned back to check up on the food's progress with a sigh.
The pancakes weren't ready to be flipped, so she leaned lightly against the counter next to the stove, but a safe enough distance away from it that it wasnt too hot for her. She crossed her arms over her chest as she wondered why Heather still seemed to have an issue with her, and she didn't have to guess it; she could tell. She wondered what she did this time to piss her off.

Jumper looked back over his shoulder and nodded with a wink. "Sure, sounds good. Im going to get a shower then probally settle in for a bit and watch something. Find me when your done here." He grinned and the slipped out. Heading ot the dorm room to get cleaned up.

"Awesome, see you soon," she said as Jumper left the kitchen. She looked over at the pancakes to see how they were doing. They were almost done and in a way she was happy everyone was there to enjoy them. Aqua casually looked at Lorelai. Her arms were crossed and she was leaning on the counter; probably waiting for the food to finish so she could eat. Aqua looked away quickly, hoping she didn't see. Every time she looked at either her or Ian, the jealously would return. The pain hurt too much and after what Jumper said in the Med Lab, she couldn't help but feel stupid.
The fact was that Aqua had no reason to be upset with Lorelai. Besides the incident during the Christmas Party, Aqua had an equal try in getting Ian for herself. The only problem was she would avoid him completely once Lorelai came into the picture. Now, Aqua hated herself more than ever and she wanted to talk to someone about it. Jumper seemed the best candidate so far since he seemed open to talk about it.
Not noticing the water from her bottle circling her, Aqua took a bite of flapjack, feeling more down than she did yesterday in the hanger.

Lorelai had been capturing little glimpses of the people around here and there, noticing Heather had looked at her as well and looked away. She didn't look right, and she wondered why. She wanted to ask, but had to turn around to check on the pancakes. They were ready to get flipped, and so she picked up the spatula and flipped them all. waiting now for the other side to cook.
After waiting for a few minutes for the other sides of the pancakes to cook, she sighed. When they finished, she grinned and took them off and put them onto the plate she put down, watching it emanate fresh steam. "Ok Ms. Pryde, my job is seemingly done. You got it alright by yourself?" she asked before slowly walking over to Heather. She still had a depressed look about her as she saw water circling her as she chewed her bite of pancake.
"Something wrong, Heather?" she asked, her voice carrying concern.

Aqua finished her bite of food and looked at her plate. She was about two thirds done with her pancake when Lorelai came up to her. At first her negative feeling dissolved, but then quickly returned when she realized that Lorelai was speaking to her. "Oh no I'm fine," she replied with a convincing tone. If you just left me alone, she finished in her head. The water circled Aqua, still being oblivious to her surroundings. She looked back to her food and forked another piece. She then smiled to the ice girl and said "Thank you for asking though."
Aqua knew that fighting Lorelai wouldn't accomplish anything. Plus having Ian right there would make her look stupid and she didn't what Ian to think that about her. Being raised in New York City made a girl pick her battles wisely; and even thought Aqua wanted to punch Lorelai in the face, she wouldn't do so.
She took the bite of pancake and sighed at the wonderful taste it gave her mouth. Her stomach was feeling better and she was glad she made her special dish.

Lorelai returned Heather's smile, but she couldn't help not believing her words. She knew she could hide her feelings well enough if she tried, and probably so could Heather, so she wasn't totally convinced that she really was fine. Going on a wild guess she thought the water girl was probably still mad at her, but for what she was still unsure of. She had long given up trying to annoy her, even thoguh on occasion it was on pure accident she had done so, and she had been working on patching things with her, but no matter what she did she seemed to piss her off more.
"Yeah, you're welcome," she replied with another smile as she took a seat at the table, not even remembering to get some of the pancakes she had been craving for a bit. She was busy with thoughts that began running through her head as she leaned an elbow on the table and rested her chin in her hand, thinking.

As Lorelai took a seat, her anger grew. She rolled her eyes, not really trying to hide it, and took another bite of her food. This time she bit the fork too and the sudden CLINK against her teeth made her drop her fork and cover her mouth. "OW GOD DAMN-" she said while touching her front teeth. The water around her circled faster now and Aqua finally noticed. Her eyes widened that her power was working without her noticing it and accidentally allowed it to spill over her and the floor. She touched her teeth with her tongue and fingers, making sure they weren't loose or bleeding. Satisfied they were fine, she picked up her fork and sighed. She went to the sink and washed it, returned to her seat and concentrated. The water on the floor rose immediately and went to the sink. She made sure every drop was gone and then looked to Lorelai before quickly returning to her meal.
She just made a complete fool of herself and not only was it in front of EVERYONE, but Ian and Lorelai too. Her anger was boiling up again, however it was more directed toward herself for being so stupid. She wanted to finish her breakfast in peace but she knew that wasn't going to happen now. She would have to finish there and then escape to Jumper later. She closed her eyes and sighed, trying to calm herself down.

Lorelai was taken out of her train of thought as she heard a loud sort of 'clink', and then a loud exclamation from Heather. Her head flashed toward her as she saw Heather bring her hand to her mouth. Continuing to look over, Lorelai looked kind of confused as she wondered what had just happened, but watched as Heather washed her fork and moved the spilled water to the sink and then glanced at her.
Seeing her close her eyes and sigh, Lorelai moved a bit closer to Heather. "You sure you're alright?" she asked, genuinely concerened after the random...whatever just happened.

"I'm fine!" she snapped at Lorelai. She stood up from the table and brought her food to the garbage can. She through it out and washed the dishes quickly, not really caring if there was food left over or not and looked to Shadowkat. "Excuse me and enjoy the pancakes," she said irritated and walked out of the kitchen. She hated herself right after for acting so childish, but at the moment she just couldn't handle Lorelai anymore. She was annoyed by her and she couldn't take it. The girl just couldn't take a damn hint. She thought about where to go and decided to call her dad. She needed to talk to him and get away from everyone else.

Lorelai blinked for a moment as Heather snapped and then stormed out. "What the hell's got her knickers in a twist?" she muttered to herself as she shook her head and let out a breath, not letting her piss her off in reaction to the outburst. Getting up after she left, Lorelai walked to the counter and picked up an empty plate and a fork. Using the fork she flopped two pancakes onto her dish and sat back down. Taking the butter and syrup for the moment, she took two large clumps of butter and put one on each, grinning to herself as she spread it all over and pushed the rest of the butter away. Then she took the syrup and just let it pour over the pancakes, letting it pool up a bit and then put that back as well. Her grin grew as she cut off a piece of one and ate it, grinning to herself again as she chewed on it. It was good.

If Ian hadn't been so hungry, he might have thought a bit more of Heather's odd behavior. But then again she always seemed odd around him. Its like she didn't like him or something. She would always leave when they hung out and always seemed upset whenever he was around. It kinda sucked because Heather was really cool and he thought they could be really good friends, but Heather didn't seem to want that. That's cool though Ian would never push someone into a friendship.
Ian grabbed the tack of pancakes and maple syrup and began drowning his stack in the maple syrup before smiling down at his girlfriend. "Babe, you have to try this, its heaven with cake!" He said with his mouth full as he shoveled into his food.

Jasper strode slowly through the doors of the kitchen, sneering a little again from behind his giant black shades. The useless amount of people in the room was very crowding despite the size of the kitchen itself, still, he wanted to eat something and fast. As his stomach would begin growling in a minute, and jasper himself couldn't allow such a feeling to be exposed to everyone, none of his emotions should be exposed, to anyone, ever, at least, thats how he felt.
So, with alot of clumping from his head black boots, he strode over to the fridge to see what he could use to make something at least relativly edible. He smelled the pancakes that everyone seemed to fuss over, but he wasn't a fan of them personally, too....plain, even with all the crap the other students were plastering over them.
An idea hit him and he felt a small smirk touch the side of his mouth. He himself could cook relativly well, having to do so since he moved into the garage beside his mothers house. And the cooker back there seemed to be the same style as the one here so it shouldn't be too difficult. Turning back to the fridge he began mumbling to himself, looking through all the things he could make quickly. Unfortunatly, the only things he could think of to be quick was scrambled egg, not his favourite, but it was quick enough.
So, taking out the eggs, butter and milk he began setting about making his own personal dish, not willing to use any more than he needed for himself and putting the rest back. "hmm, wenigstens ist es etwas anders als Pfannenkuchen zu flammen" *hmm, at least it's something other than flaming pancakes* he grumbled.

Lorelai chewed and laughed at the same time as she saw Ian drown his pancakes in syrup and then wolf down a bite. His garbled suggestion sounded good, but for now she was happy with her super-buttery-syrup-drenched pancakes, though she'd try them with cake later. "You going to sit down or just stand there stuffing your face?" she asked, smirking and laughing again as she looked down to cut another piece of pancake for herself, and then eating it. She patted a chair next to her for him to sit as she continued chewing.
Hearing loud clonky footsteps, she looked to the entrance to the kitchen. A large blonde boy she didn't know had entered. He spoke in another language too, German she guessed since she was pretty good at discerning one language from another even though she didn't understand a word of it. She raised an eyebrow slightly as she saw him dig through the fridge to make something other than pancakes, and then resumed eating.

Kitty smiled and nodded as Lorelai finished her last batch of pancakes and took some for herself. She was keeping an eye on the ones she was making and quickly turned as she heard Aqua make a loud exclamation. She was about to ask if she was okay as she saw her clean up the water on the floor, and nodded a bit when she stormed out of the room. Turning to the pancakes she was making, she flipped them over and then heard big clomping footsteps.
After flipping, she turned around to see that it was Onyx, who had muttered in German and started going through stuff in the fridge. "Hello Jasper," she said slowly enough for him to understand, "You don't want to have pancakes with the rest of us?" she asked with a little smile.
