Hands in her pockets, Beth whistles a tune while approaching the door to Todd's room.

She withdraws one of her hands and gives the door a firm knock. She hopes she isn't about to catch him off guard again.

Todd laughs, surprised. "Gosh, Beth. You were a regular bad girl, huh?" He half-winks, and one wonders how they might've gotten along were they in the same school...

[stbethadettes]

She smiles a little.

"Oh, don't let all that fool you. I may have been a bad Catholic schoolgirl, but I was a very good student. Good grades, pretty perceptive, usually polite. I just have a mind of my own."

"Oh, well, that's good," Todd grins. In fact, that's much better. "It's important to keep your grades up." This last part he says almost automatically. He is on partial automaton mode tonight.

Also acting automatically, she reaches over to tousle his hair. "It is important to keep your grades up, golden boy. But I bet you hear that from everyone."

She rises to her feet. "I should go on my walk while I still feel like it. Will you be able to get the pictures to me later?"

"Sure thing, Sure Shot." Again, automatic. And he stands up too, as usual, so he can walk her to the door. "It'll be a snap." He winks at his own bad joke.

[stbethadettes]

She wrinkles her forehead in disapproval of the pun, but still grins.

"I'll see you around then, Todd," she says as she opens the door and steps out. "Don't get into too much trouble."

"I won't, Mom." He says it as a joke, but the word kinda...hangs in the air for a moment. Then he waves and grins again. "Take care of yourself, Beth. Say hi to Spike."
