3rd Floor Common Room, Thursday Night

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

Johnny didn't see what the big deal was with today. Oooh, people told the truth. So what? He liked telling the truth! He did it all the time! He was awesome. Reed was a douche. Gwen was cool. Alana was hot. He didn't have many male friends because he never truly felt deep down that he really belonged after spending his entire youth out of place. He had no idea how to commit to anything but superheroing. This pizza was delicious and there was plenty for everyone. This Kate Hudson movie was wonderful, she was such a good actress.

Kate Hudson was where he drew the line. "I really want this channel to change so I can save face if anyone comes in. I DON'T KNOW WHY THE CHANNEL WON'T CHANGE! I'd totally bang Kate Hudson."

Okay, maybe THAT was how he could save face if anyone came in.

[OOC: Open, of course. But I'm driving home now so no responses for the next hour.]

Hanna blinked at the slang, but smiled tentatively in greeting. "I'm not certain how you mean that. I'm not good at American slang yet." Which she wouldn't usually divulge, but it seemed ... necessary? She fetched a plate and said, "I'm Hanna. I rather like pizza, just not as much as Moroccan food. What are you watching?"

"A dumb movie that I enjoy more than I really want to admit," Johnny said. "But today's the day for that. I'm Johnny."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

"Hello, Johnny." Hanna took a seat at the end of the couch, puzzling a bit as she watched the movie. "That actress is very pretty. But I think everyone is very pretty."

...um.

"If I didn't have a girlfriend, I'd totally use that as a lead in to make out with you," Johnny said, a little sadly. "Maybe some other time, after I've screwed things up."

"... That was too brutally honest about myself. Geez."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

"I would like to make out with you. I've only had one kiss. I almost had another, but I frightened him too much after I flipped him onto the ground." Hanna frowned, looking at the pizza. "Is there something on this pizza that compels the truth? And why are you going to screw things up?"

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

"Because as awesome as I am, I'm not the most focused guy in the long term. Also, weird things happen to me, so you never know what's going to come up," Johnny said. "Probably something dramatic."

"And don't worry, I'm pretty sure most girls want to make out with me, so that's just a natural feeling you're having."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

"I was mostly worried that I might frighten you if I acted on instinct and training and punched you afterward." Hanna was still staring at her pizza, worried. "What kinds of weird things? Do you mind me asking these questions?"

Another pause to admire Kate Hudson, and the pretty dress she was wearing. And her pretty male co-star.

"Dude, I've hit on girls who tried to kill me. I can take a simple punch," Johnny scoffed. "And it'll take too long to explain, but it starts with me being a superhero who bursts into flames and works out logically from there."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

That kind of completely disrupted Hanna's train of thought. "Burst into flames. And of course you would hit someone who tried to kill you."

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

"Flame on," Johnny said. And his hand was on fire. "No, no. Hit on. Flirted with. She was a snake girl, I was single, there was middle ground to be had, if I'm being deluional."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

That was fascinating. Hanna leaned so far forward she was in danger of singeing her eyebrows. "You can just do this?... She didn't like you?" She gave Johnny a look of sympathy. "That seems a shame."

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

"Well, she liked the money she was trying to steal more, and I was keeping her and her gang from it," Johnny said. "We wanted different things."

The flame went away. Normal hand!

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

"That does make sense. It's too bad she didn't try harder to have both. She could have offered you part of the money," Hanna observed. She reached out to his hand, then pulled back. "Were you born like this?"

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

"No, I got my powers in a science accident a couple years ago," Johnny said. "I've kind of devoted myself to saving lives and fighting crime ever since, so she wouldn't have gotten anywhere by offering me money."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

"Do you enjoy that? It sounds admirable." Hanna's dubious tone might indicate it wasn't for her, though. "Or possibly very dangerous and rather foolhardy."

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

"Dude, I love it. It's what I want to do for the rest of my hopefully very long life," Johnny said. "It's the coolest thing. And sure, it's dangerous, which is why it's a good thing I'm so great."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

That provoked some very quiet giggling, and a smile. "I am glad you like yourself so much. I sometimes am not sure if I like myself or not." Her smile faded a little. "Not that it's relevant if I do."

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

"You seem fine as far as I can tell," Johnny said. "And it helps to like yourself. I legitimately wouldn't be who I am if I didn't love myself so much."

You don't know how glad he was that he stopped that sentence there. Dirty joke to the new girl avoided!

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

It would have sailed right over the new girl's head anyway. Even with the reading of Our Bodies, Our Selves.

"So who is your girlfriend?" Hanna asked, curious now.

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

"Alana," Johnny said. "We've been banging for months, but we realized that neither one of us was trying to hook up with anyone else anymore and that we were kind of a couple. It's sweet, kind of."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

"I know her!" Hanna gave him a pleased look. "She's very nice. And also pretty. Is banging slang for coitus?"

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

"Is coitus the same thing as having sex?" Johnny asked. "If so, then yes."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

"'Physical union of male and female genitalia accompanied by rhythmic movements usually leading to the ejaculation of semen from the penis into the vagina,'" Hanna clarified, quoting the dictionary definition in her book. Then looked mildly uncomfortable. "I am not going to ask about positions or any particular activities. So you do not need to share that information."

[ultimatehottie.livejournal.com]

"Good, because that would have gotten really uncomfortable for both of us," Johnny said. "I would have gone on in detail."

[hexentotchen.livejournal.com]

Hanna started to ask another question... then realized that Johnny would be unable *not* to answer.

So, pizza. In the mouth. It was very good.

"This is very good pizza."
