older jamie bc reasons.

Hey, cut it out. There's nothing embarrassing about studying fables. I'm going to be a curator — or a writer, maybe both! One day, that is. The first chapter would have to be on ... [ hmmm what a hard choice!! ] Bigfoot, obviously.

The best fun. I'll show you all about my books and games, oh! And give you a tour of where I'm staying! Want me to teach you the trick to getting free snacks from the vending machine down the hall? It's not so much a kick as the timing.

[ animated at the prospect of hanging out with jack alone, he perks up considerably. ]

I can s-exile my roommate for the evening with a tie on the doorknob. Not that, uh, it'll be anything like that, but it's the most solid excuse that'll keep them out of our hair.

[ and stop the guy thinking jamie is a wacko for talking to thin air. ]

[snowymischief]

[He'd say not to steal, but... well, that stuff's always overpriced, anyway.] You know, I can probably get them out easier just by sending a little gust of wind into it.

[--JAMIE, NO, STOP.] I don't like that idea. About the tie. So I just won't try to think about it. [Onto better topics.] Aside from that, I'm looking forward to this. I've never really... done teenager stuff before.

[undergrad]

Just trust me on this, it's a fool proof, time-honored tradition that can't go wrong. I ... don't do a ton of the teenager stuff myself, to be honest.

[ remember that bashful, chagrined look he gave when asked if he didn't believe in the moon when the sun comes up? yep. ]

[snowymischief]

[Then Jack will not question it. At Jamie's bashful grin, Jack floats up in front of him, and smiles.]/small> Then we can do Jack and Jamie stuff. No matter what we do, spending time with you is already tons of fun for me.

[undergrad]

[ impulsively when he hears that, he tugs him into a hug. jack-and-jamie things sound like nothing will compare, no matter how old he gets. ]

No pun intended, but you really are the coolest guy I know.

[snowymischief]

[He doesn't hesitate to hug back, even chuckling a little at Jamie's comment.] Well, I've got this really great friend I try to be the coolest guy for.

[undergrad]

I'm so excited, Jack! I promise it'll be fun, it won't be boring at all.

[ stepping back, he fiddles to put his scarf back on. ]

There are pictures of mom and Sophie on my wall, you can see the whole family.

[snowymischief]

You say that like you could ever bore me.

[He smiles warmly at Jamie's excitement.] What does Sophie look like all grown up? [Now he's starting to wonder what his sister looked like when she grew up...]

[undergrad]

Oh my God, she looks like she fell in one of those rainbow rivers or whatever she says she saw in the Easter Bunny's Warren. [ hands raise because who the heck knows why girls paint themselves like that. ] Her hair has a dozen different colors streaked through it, last I saw, and she's a little shorter than you. She paints a lot, likes to over-stress the Tortured Artist gig to the point of buying a pink beret.

She's just Sophie, doing whatever she wants.

[snowymischief]

[Wow. Sophie, calm down there.] She sounds like a walking rainbow. I bet Bunny'd love to see how colorful she is. He could model an egg after her.

[undergrad]

He should watch out or she'll braid all his fur.

[ not even joking. ]

[snowymischief]

Oh, we have got to find a way for her to come here. I'd love to see that.

[He could tease Bunny for the rest of foreverrrrrr YES.]

[undergrad]

[ chuckling. ]

You're so mean.

[snowymischief]

It's not mean. It's entertainment. [Big difference.]

[undergrad]

I believe you, thousands wouldn't.

[snowymischief]

Is that like your saying now? And come on, you know you'd love to see Bunny with pink bows and braids. It'd be hilarious.

[undergrad]

I heard it on the X-Files which is like, alien fiction gold. And I'd love to see you in bows and braids, cool guy.

[snowymischief]

Alien fiction? Really?

[This is one unimpressed Jack Frost.] Don't even think it.

[undergrad]

Aliens are awesome and totally real. I'll get you one day.

[snowymischief]

Be careful they don't beam you up one of these days, otherwise I'll have to fly all across space just to get you.

See, that's the thing, you won't. [No one is able to. Except the yetis.]

[undergrad]

[ PSH, he so will. ]

What if I was abducted in the middle of the night and whisked away before you could come and get me?

[snowymischief]

[NUH-UH good luck trying.] Then I'd chase after them, duh.

[undergrad]

Okay! So what if they were the ones Ripley fought, with acid for blood and heat-sensitive eyes and a hugely evil queen? You should never go into a colony of those! This is Actual Advice.

[ dfgjkdf still so srs about these things. ]

[snowymischief]

[JACK IS JUST GOING TO DO HIS BEST NOT TO LAUGH yep.] Okay, then I'd definitely abandon my best friend and leave him to the mercy of some terrible aliens.

[undergrad]

Good. Jack, you are not allowed to fight those guys, they're bad news. [ Squinting at him. ] Have you seen those movies?
