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.

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?

[snowymischief]

[He is thoroughly insulted here.] I can't believe you actually think I'd just leave you with some creepy aliens.

[undergrad]

Oh my God, let me show you something.

[ SO EXASPERATED he pulls out his iphone and flicks through youtube. ]

Now watch this.

[ shoving a bunch of clips under his nose. ]

[snowymischief]

[... ew.] Okay, that was pretty nasty. [...] And yeah, I probably wouldn't want to face those things. [BUT.] I don't want you getting eaten even more.

[undergrad]

That's the thing, once the facehugger impregnates you down the throat, you're screwed! So, I guess, if you did want to save me then you'd have to make it to the nesting grounds past the mature aliens to where the eggs were hatching, before one burst open and got to me. Otherwise, I'd have one burst out my chest if you were too late and then it'd grow up and kill you too.

That is not allowed to happen.

[ he gives a lot of thought to these things. ]

Ever.

[snowymischief]

Then I'd freeze all of them, and the eggs, and bust you out of there! [So hitting you on the head with his staff.] I'd never just leave you somewhere horrible! What kind of friend do you take me for?

[undergrad]

Ouch!

[ wincing, he gives a weak chuckle. ]

S-Sorry, got a little caught up in it for a minute there.

[snowymischief]

I'll say you did. You know a lot about aliens, huh?

[undergrad]

Aliens, mythology, fables. Sorry, have we met?

[snowymischief]

[Oh Jamie.] Can I tell myself it's partially thanks to me you got so interested in the stuff? Or would that be wishful thinking?

[undergrad]

I had a bunch of books on this stuff before you showed up. You can give yourself half the credit though, since you cemented it and you're my favorite spirit.

[snowymischief]

[jfdnkjfdr he said favorite!!!] Okay, I can definitely be happy with that. [Actually, really happy.]

[undergrad]

[ fingers curl around jack's pale wrist as jamie leans in, forehead resting against a temple so his murmur doesn't have to raise. ]

You're easily pleased, cool kid.

[snowymischief]

[Jack smiles at that, reaching up to ruffle Jamie's hair a little.] Well, it's not like I ever ask for much.

[undergrad]

Urgh, Jack, it took ages to get my hair right this morning.

[ fussily pulling back to comb his fingers through omg. :T Huffpuff. ]

1/2

[snowymischief]

[... this is a very displeased look.]

[snowymischief]

[That lasts for all of five seconds before there's a terrible grin, and he just keeps ruffling your hair. >:D]

[undergrad]

Jack, whhhyyy ...

[ STANDING THERE. TAKING THE HAIR-RUFFLING LIKE A BITCH. :( sighing like he has to live such a hard life, he dives in to mess up an already wind-blown nest of snowy locks. ]

Get back here!
