First Floor Lobby, Monday morning

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

Johnny had an emotional but overall good weekend. But after doing radio this morning, it was clear that Parents Weekend wasn't as pleasant for everyone.

And so, as promised, Johnny bought some cupcakes and brought them to the first floor lobby. They were available to anyone who wanted or needed them, provided they would accept a hug from Johnny. And no, that wasn't a thing for the girls. Guys were getting a bro hug too. This was a platonic hug of support.

And if you needed, he was willing to give a pep talk, too. Girls had told him that he was great at saying the right thing to make them feel good about themselves. Why not apply that to people in actual need of cheering up?

Fandom needed it's favorite flaming superhero to do something a little different today and he was completely willing to do that. That's what being a superhero was, ven if he wasn't on fire.

"We're pretty tight. But there was a whole big thing a few months ago. Like half of New York got drowned and my dad died in front of me," Johnny said. "I kind of took off for a while after that. This was the first time I've been back since his funeral."

"More than anything, she's just glad that I did come back to check in. I am too."

Oh. Well. That hit a little close to home. Elsa winced sympathetically, and nodded.

"Facing siblings again after running away might be a running theme for the weekend," she admitted. "I came here and left my sister behind after our parents drowned, too. Though you actually went back to see her on your own. That takes courage."

She hesitated for a moment, and then softly added, "I'm sorry about your loss."

"Thanks, Elsa," Johnny said. "I did what I had to do and now things are better. It's a running theme for me. And that's why I'm trying to spread that around."

"Hopefully it's catchy," Elsa replied, smiling faintly. "I'm glad this weekend worked out well for you, Johnny. And... thanks for the high five."

Whatever it meant.

"I'm pretty much counting on it," Johnny said. "And if you need anything else, let me know. I'm here all morning, but being there whenever people need help is kind of my job."
