3rd Floor Common Room, Monday Evening

Tanned and rested from a vacation--where no evil mutants or natural disasters struck--Jean was going to settle in for whatever she could find on TV tonight.

It ended up being something about kids living and loving in New Jersey.

Something was terribly, terribly wrong here.

[[Open as common rooms are!]]

He took a moment to consider that hand, trying to figure out what the hell he'd just gotten himself into.

And then, because he really had nothing to lose with the exception of possibly his pride, he gave his shoulders a shrug and shook on it.

//Good. Pleasure doin' business with yer, gel.//

//I've had my ups an' downs,// Jono admitted. //Oddly enough, mostly ups, I think. Took Didi to th'dance, and then to Disneyland as a birthday present.//

Totally got laid.

//Never did get Goofy's signature, though.//
furnaceface: (Very disappointed in you)

//Before yer get too surprised, I feel as though I have to point out that Didi likes Disney.//

Jono was still undecided about the whole place. He couldn't help but feel as though they were trying to suck him in while he was there, somehow.

The mouse ears probably hadn't helped that much.

//Please, don't call me that too loudly,// Jono replied, rolling his eyes. //People might find out.//

He was cranky and dangerous and smelled like burning brimstone. He was supposed to me utterly unapproachable, damn it. Not sweet.
furnaceface: (o_O)

//Only for that one afternoon!//

And it had been bloody adorable.

//Anyhow, it was supposed to partly make up for th'fact that I was lettin' her go to th'Bahamas for a week without me, too.//
furnaceface: (Shock)

//Of course I wore th'bloody ears. I was at Disneyland.//

And if Didi had gotten a picture, he totally wasn't saying. Because if it existed out there, he was never admitting to the blackmail possibilities.

//We'll see,// he allowed. //There are some things I still won't go out and do.//

Days on the beach were pretty much a huge no-no, yes.

... Even if he did own a swimsuit.
furnaceface: (Very disappointed in you)

//... Right. Let me re-phrase that,// Jono replied. He wasn't reading her mind, no, but he could certainly piece together where 'working on that' could potentially lead. And it maybe scared him a little. //There are some things that I flat-out refuse to go out and do. Period.//

This tactic had always worked so well for him in the past. Really.
furnaceface: (Backward glance)

This would be where Jono had to give her one of those looks that suggested that he was well and truly paranoid, now.

He'd mastered this look after but a precious few weeks living around Jubilee.

//... Why? Where do yer intend to start workin' on it?//
furnaceface: (Very disappointed in you)

[personal profile] furnaceface 2010-03-02 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
//Yer said we'd have to work on it,// Jono replied, meaningfully. //That seems close enough to planning fer me, gel.//

Paranoid, paranoid boy.
furnaceface: (Dark)

[personal profile] furnaceface 2010-03-02 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
//Yes, I hear I'm prone to that,// Jono sighed, letting the subject drop.

This didn't mean that the paranoia was going anywhere, of course, and he was going to continue giving Jean that look.

The 'I don't believe you' look.
