Mordecai wrote "World War 1' at the top of the page, his handwriting a mix between regular script and cursive like old writing. "So how are we gonna film this?" he asked as he looked to him. "I don't exactly have a device we could record this on." he said to him.

IC "I have a video camera. Ty insisted I brought it, wanted me to film anything exciting," Norman explained with a slight shrug. "It's in my stuff, it's a real nice video camera too," the little redhead added, still a bit absent minded.

"Alright so we have something to film with." Mordecai said then scribbled something down on the paper. "So when do you want to start filming?" he asked as he looked over at Norman. As he looked to him he noticed he wasn't exactly all there. "Norman are you alright?" he asked him.

IC Norman paused and looked over at him. "What? Oh, I'm fine, how about we start filming tomorrow?" He suggested, figuring that was probably a good time to start, he sent him a small smile. "After school, we can meet up here and then start filming," he explained, trying to put more focus into the project once again, though his mind was still elsewhere, either way he was fairly happy with the work they were getting done today.

Mordecai nodded to him. "That works, might as well get all of our filming out of the way while we can." he said to him. He didn't exactly believe him when he said he was fine, he still seemed a bit distant, but he didn't press any further. He shrugged it off, he was probably think about something and it wasn't his business to know. "What exactly do we want to film?" he asked him.

IC "Well what do you want to film?" Norman asked with a slight tilt of his head. "You know what ideas I've had, so let's do what you want," Norman suggested, still resting on his stomach, kicking his feat back and forth lightly, bowl down on the ground so he could snack on the cheetos. "Hey did you want any of these? You can still eat food, right?" He asked, pushing the bowl over to him to share.

"Alright." Mordecai said to him then started to write more things down on the paper, ideas for what he wanted to film. He glanced over at the bowl of cheetos. "I can eat food, it just doesn't taste right. Plus regular food makes me sick, well it makes all vampires sick. Especially all that artificial stuff."

IC "Oh...sorry," Norman said as he brought the bowl back over to him. Yeah, he would hate to be a vampire, no way could he sacrifice stuff like this, or drink blood for that matter...or live forever...what about his brothers? He would have to leave them behind...yeah no way could he be a vampire. "Anyways-" he said, shoving some of the cheesy puffs of artificial food into his mouth. "What else do we need to cover?" He asked, voice slightly muffled.

"It's fine." Mordecai said to him then looked down at the paper in front of him. He tapped the pencil agqinst the table as he thought for a second. "Well we need to figure put what information we want to put into thw video, beaides the stories." he said then looked over at Norman.

IC "Well, honestly I'm okay with just like...a recap about the war and then all the stories," Norman explained with a light shrug. "We crossed out the idea of a music video anyways," he added. Juggling between thinking about this project and another, though he was honestly a tad more excited for the other, even though this one was really pretty fun too.

Mordecai nodded then thought for a second before he started to write a quick summary of the war down on the paper, glancing over at some of Norman's notes and books. "After I'm finished with this summary, what do you want to do next?" he asked Norman without looking up from the paper as he wrote. They could either do a bit more planning or call it day. Mordecai would be content with finishing for the day, they got an important part of the project done.

IC "How about we call it a day?" Norman suggested with a happy smile, he had some stuff to figure out anyways, and to actually tell Randolph off for being a jerk, plus they did get stuff done today, he would feel fine calling it a day.

Mordecai nodded as he wrote. "That works for me." he said then paused his writing for a second to flip ome of the pages from Norman's books. He wrote for a couple more minutes before finishing off the summary and setting the pencil down. "Alright, all done." he said then looked to Norman.

IC "Great! This is gonna be fun, I love working on projects," Norman explained with a grin as he beamed over at Mordecai, he was sure they weren't allowed to sneak out of their dorms at night...but sneaking about was always an option. Especially for what he had in mind.

"is sure will be interesting, I have never really done a video project before." Mordecai said then stood up from his spot on the floor and brushed himself off. "I think I'm going to get going." he said then walked over and grabbed his bag. "I'll see ypu tomorrow." he said to him then started to walk out.

IC "Alright, bye Mordecai," Norman said as he got up off the ground and put the bowl of half empty cheetos on the table, figuring he should clean up now and collect all his stuff before Randolph could try and look through it all.

Mordecai walked out of Norman's dorm and went off to his own. He felt accomplished for planning out their project. Although, he did wonder what Norman was so distracted by earlier, but he knew better not to ask. He assumed it was a personal matter and he didn't need to know. Who knows maybe he'll find out about it soon.

IC Norman had been rather proud of himself so far, he had snuck out of his dorm and gotten down to the door of Mordecai's without any incident and now he just had to hope that Mordecai was a light sleeper and that his dormmate was not. So with that he knocked on the door.

Mordecai opened his eyes when he heard a knock at his door, which his roommate didn't seem to notice. Who could be at their door at this time of night? It bwtter be something important and not some kind of prank. He slowly got out of bed and quietly made his way over to the door and opened it. He was a little surprised to see Norman standing there. He stepped out into the hall and closed the door behind himself so we wouldn't disturb his roommate. "What are you doing here?" he asked Norman quietly.

IC Norman grinned and took his wrist. "Come on, I wanna show you something," he explained without much explanation as he started to pull him along. It was late, like middle of the night late, but this was really the only time for anything like this, it was perfect. Really though, Norman was just lucky that it had been Mordecai to answer the door and not someone else.

"What's so important that you have to show me in the middle of the night?" Mordecai asked, but followed him anyways. He was skeptical but he was curious on what Norman was so excited to show him. "Where are we going?" he asked Norman.

IC "Outside," the redhead explained in a hushed, excited voice. Leading Mordecai outside, walking over to a nice looking spot, hovering the lantern he had bright over it to see if it was right. Yep, that's where he had placed the blanket. Norman set the lantern down and looked up at Mordecai. "Come on," he said before sitting down on the blanket, patting on the spot next to him as he waited for Mordecai to get down on the blanket with him, however after patting the ground, Norman lied down on his half of the blanket, bringing his hands up to place them underneath his head.

Mordecai followed him outside then stopped in front of the blanket when they walked up to it. "What is this?" he asked him then sat down next to Norman on the blanket then looked over at him. "So what did you want me to see? The blanket is great, but not that exciting." he said to him.

IC "Lie down and look up," Norman ordered, looking up at the dark, star cluttered sky himself. He had snuck out the first night and came to this spot, couldn't sleep-homesick, however the stars at helped...there were just so many. The school was fairly far away from other places, so at night when everything went dark, you could really see the night sky in its full glory. Norman loved it.

Mordecai laid down next him then looked up at the sky placing his hands on his stomach. He looked up at the stars, picking out certain constellations among them that he knew. "Why did you take me out here to look at the stars?" he asked him as he continued to look up at the sky.

IC "Remember how you told me you used to be a lot like me? Well, just because you matured over the years, doesn't mean you have to let go of your childlike curiosity," Norman explained and let out a content sigh. "I'm going to help you get it back...when you look up at the night sky, what do you see?" He asked, a smile on his face as he looked up at the stars.

"It's not going to be easy, just to let you know." Mordecai said then let out a small sigh. Why would Norman go out of his way to do such a thing? Might as well just go along with it for the time being. "I see some constellations." he said to him, keeping his answer simple.

IC "I'm up for the challenge," Norman explained simply. "When I look up at the sky I see a bunch of things. Constellations, worlds, the past, the future, people somewhere else in the world, stories that haven't even been told yet, it's amazing. I mean how many other people all throughout time have looked up at that exact same sky that we are? How many people are going to? What other beings are out there beyond this world? There's so many things to see when you look up at the sky."
