A plain, quaint little dorm with one bed, one desk, one window, one TV, and one dresser.

Seele dashed about her room in a whirl, stacking books against her full bookshelf, shoving clothes in the closet, kicking various other items under the bed that she never used. She slept instead in the massive armchair set in the corner by the window-- the velvet was worn around the stitching in the upholstery and there was a patch covering a large swatch of the left arm. The chair had once been blood-red, but the combination of age and light exposure from the window had bleached it to an uneven, faded rosy shade. Seele draped her comforter over the seat and tossed the teddy bear she used as a pillow atop it, then turned to look around the rest of her room. It seemed clean enough. At least the floor was visible.
Now to find Wicked.

Liam strolled down the hall toward Seele's dorm at a moderate pace, wanting to give her enough time to tidy her room before he got there. He hummed softly to himself as he walked, very much looking forward to their date.
Reaching her dorm and hearing her bustling around inside it, he grinned and knocked on her door.

Seele turned to go open the door and promptly slipped and fell on a silk sarong that she had somehow missed on the floor. She landed on the floor with a firm thump and grumbled something about the floor's mother being a termite-infested mold factory before getting up and opening the door. She had kicked off her shoes as soon as she had gotten to her room in the first place, but had forgotten, and was quite suprised when she found she was no longer looking down st Liam.
"Hi there."

Liam jumped a little at the sound of a thump and muffled cursing from inside the room, then smiled a little awkwardly as Seele opened the door. He noticed immediately that they were standing almost eye-to-eye for once -- she wasn't wearing shoes anymore. He couldn't help but grin.
"Lassie, you've shrunk!" he laughed. "I heard you fall. Are you okay?"

Seele grinned and brushed a hand through her hair.
"The floor tripped me. It's horribly spiteful. Didn't appreciate me taking away it's nice warm blanket of randomly assorted clutter." She stepped aside to let him in and shrugged, then put on a look of mock surprise. "I've shrunk?! Oh noes!" She half-pranced over to the mirror and chuckled at him over her reflection's shoulder. "The floor must have eaten my shoes. That's the only logical explanation."

Liam laughed as Seele explained her predicament. "Floors are nasty, vindictive things. You shouldn't piss them off. Yours probably ate your shoes out of revenge."
He looked around, wondering where to sit down, but mostly watching Seele as she moved around the room.

Seele scooped up the sarong that she had slipped on with her foot and flung it over the handle of her closet door. "Heh. It happens. I'll just have to be nicer to it." She turned back to face Liam and noticed he was still standing. "Oh! Sit anywhere. The bed, the desk chair, my armchair. It's all comfy." She looked through a stack of dvds in search of Wicked.

Liam grinned and sat down on the bed, resting his hands on his knees and continuing to watch her as she searched through a pile of DVDs. "Need some help, lass?"

Seele went to another stack and flipped through it. "Um, I might-- haha! Found it." She opened the disk case and put the dvd into her ps2. On went the tv. Seele walked over to sit next to Liam and pulled a blanket around her shoulders, using the controller to start the video.
"Feel free to use a blanket," she offered, leaning back on the pillows she had set against the wall to form a sort of couch backing.

Liam smiled, finding a blanket and a pillow and getting himself comfortable against the wall. As the movie started and the music of the opening number began to play, he leaned gently against Seele, trying to keep his eyes on the screen rather than her for the most part. She was just so bloody beautiful.

As the opening scene played through Seele's head slowly tilted sideways to rest on Liam's shoulder. The lad was warm and she was quite content with where she was. Liam was endlessly sweet, and Seele hadn't realized til now that she had never been less than completely sure of herself when Liam was around.
A smile curled the corners of her lips upward and she glanced up at him before folding both arms around one of his as if it were a teddy bear.

Liam didn't even try to hold back his smile as Seele's head slowly came to rest on his shoulder. He had always been attracted to her; she brought out feelings in him that no other woman did, and by far he enjoyed her company the most. She was sweet and sincere, and though he sometimes felt awkward around her it never lasted for long. She was always quick to remedy it herself.
Liam's smile widened as Seele's arms folded aroundhis, and he took one of her hands and squeezed it gently when her eyes met his. Her skin was comfortably cool, and very soft, like satin. He massaged her hand gently with his, reluctantly tearing his eyes away from her and trying to at least pretend to be watching the musical.

Seele watched the screen with a goofy little half-smile. If she could purr, she would be doing so. She wanted to speak, but every time she thought of something to say it sounded ridiculous in her head. She did manage, several acts later, to finally string together a coherent thought.
"I'm kinda sad that Idina Menzel isn't in this production. She was my favorite Elphaba."

Liam nodded, smiling. "She's definitely mine too. I've seen a few clips on Youtube of other actresses, but they don't quite measure up to her. Eden Espinosa is pretty good too, though," he added thoughtfully. "And Kristin Chenoweth is the best Glinda by far."

Seele shrugged. "I've liked most of the Glindas. They each have their own little quirk that they bring to the character. I personally liked Eden the best, though." She grinned up at Liam. "But Kristin did have a better voice for the part."

"I've never heard Eden as Glinda, so I can't really compare her and Kristin," Liam replied with a grin and a shrug. "I'll have to look her up next time I'm online."
He fell silent, basking in the comfort of her body against his, smiling and resisting the urge to hum along with the musical when Elphaba and Fiyero began to sing their passionate duet, "As Long As You're Mine". Liam certainly could relate to Fiyero's feelings for Elphaba, though he prayed that his relationship with Seele wouldn't end like theirs had, according to the book or the musical.
