Aww yeah, headcanon confirmed!

[2cool4guardian]

Of course I tried to contact 'others'. You didn't really believe I would actually follow the rules, did you? Untold or not, they're just stupid.

If you think Bunny was mad at me after the '68, wait to hear about Nessie's reaction when she saw what I did to her lake.

[Know what, Jack, maybe it's better to pass on that story for now...]

Comments

[fireflyheir]

The Loch Ness Monster?

[you are clearly made of good ideas, Jack.]

[2cool4guardian]

[Obviously.]

Do you know any other Nessies?

[fireflyheir]

Not personally. It doesn't really sound like a nickname for anything common, either…

Does she talk?

[2cool4guardian]

I'm not really sure. She just growls at me.

[Gee I wonder why.]

[fireflyheir]

Whiiiiiich has absolutely nothing to do with her previous experiences of you. Right?

[this smile suggests exactly the opposite, though.]

[2cool4guardian]

You're hurting my feelings over here, John.

[Not really, he's just being an idiot.]

[fireflyheir]

Oh no. I'm not sure I've got the emotional bandages on me, Jack, are you gonna survive?

[2cool4guardian]

Well, technically, I'm already dead. That still doesn't give you permission to play with my feelings like this.

[fireflyheir]

…uh. [NOBODY MENTIONED THAT why do people not tell him things this is just unfair] Well, maybe. But hey, you've got them to hopefully not be toyed with, that's got to count for something.

So is that… part of the whole deal, or what? [also he's going to lean in and poke Jack now.]

[2cool4guardian]

[Welcome to the NEVER GETS EXPLANATIONS club, enjoy your stay.

Jack gives a step back. No touchy! John will feel cold the closer he gets.]

What deal? The Guardian deal? No. The spirit deal? Well, duh. Never heard of a spirit that wasn't. [Just babbling now. He hasn't spoken to many spirits in the first place, and they ignored him anyway.]

[fireflyheir]

[this is not the suckiest club ever, but it's still somewhere up there.

…would his finger stick if he actually did touch Jack? This must be answered for science.]

I guess not. [frowning a bit] But you're not all spirits, right? The Guardians?

[2cool4guardian]

[Jack sighs and lets John poke him. No, it doesn't stick, but it's pretty cold. Makes you wonder how he's alive... oh wait, he isn't.]

Nah. Tooth is a fairy. Bunny is a... well, rabbit? A pooka thingy. Some magical creature too. North is some kind of alchemist-wizard-whatever. The most human among us.

And Sandy... [He puts his hands up like the meme guy.] I guess "aliens" fits.

[fireflyheir]

[science is appeased! For now.]

Right. Of course she'd be that, that just makes sense. [he nods] Yeah, he'd have to be a little magical in the first place to do all that, right? Huh! [but he guesses that makes sense, more or less.]

What, seriously?

[2cool4guardian]

That's what you think, but in some countries the teeth are picked by mice.

[Including his mun's, who wishes she had fairies in her childhood instead.]

Do I look like the kind of guy who would lie to you? -wait, don't answer that. Anyway, yeah, Sandy was like... a wishing start or something. I think Pitch was an alien too. If you think about it, I'm the normal one of the bunch. [Ahahaha... haha... ha...]

[fireflyheir]

Huh, really? Well… I guess there's no reason they shouldn't. And they keep clean, right? That's pretty important.

[he snorts at the first part, but doesn't comment.] …huh! I guess that sort of makes sense, if you think about what sand is, and people making wishes on stars.

[eyebrow raise] For a guy-turned-frost spirit, you mean?

[2cool4guardian]

[That snort, those eyebrows! So much faith in Jack you have, John.]

Exactly. [Was that supposed to be an insult or what.? Excuse you, he's awesome.]

Now save all this info tightly in your mind, John, and never grow up.

[fireflyheir]

[more in his tendency to tell the truth. he's not about to keel over just from that, right?]

[just a most people would not so much consider that normal comment, really.]

Well, I'm not too sure what I can do about the physical side, but I'll try.

[2cool4guardian]

As long as you keep your inner child, I think I can deal with you getting facial hair and ignoring your friends in favor of girls.

[He knows how it goes, ok. It hasn't happened to himself but he's seen enough children grow up and... well, suck.]

[fireflyheir]

[yeah. Considering how long he's been around, well…

John makes a bit of a face at the last bit, but nods and smiles.]

Okay, so that's a deal then! Uh… should we shake on it or something?

[2cool4guardian]

[Love you too, John.]

Dunno, you tell me. You're the one used to touching people. [Is he joking or not? Who can really tell...]

[fireflyheir]

[mwah mwah. it's amazing the air isn't going pink from all the love in it]

So that's a yes then! [he grins, reaching for Jack's hands, and if Jack allows it he is totally going to tug and try to pull him into a hug because not having any is wrong.]

[2cool4guardian]

[Jack allows it. In a totally awkward way, but he does. Is the thought that counts, right? After the initial tension, he hugs back.]

Will you come by someday? ...to the musebox thing I mean. Mun says I should remind you. [Because he totally doesn't wish to see John more often or anything! Really!!!]

[fireflyheir]

[it so does. John grins and holds on for a few more moments before letting go with a pat on the back.]

Yeah, sure! I'd be there already if someone didn't have a massive case of nerves every time she thought about it.

[ROLLS EYES sheesh gosh Jack tsun harder I don't think you denied that nearly enough]

[2cool4guardian]

[Excuse you, Jack Frost doesn't tsun. HE DENIES WITH STYLE #swag]

Well, tell that someone to stop worrying so much - you were invited in the first place!

[Now he grins, ready for more teasing.]

You don't want me to change you for Jade, do you?

[fireflyheir]

[of course, of course. John grins, two fingers tapped against his forehead in some sort of salute.]

Message received loud and clear! I'll pass it on.

[wait what]

What? Wait, how- could you even do that?

[2cool4guardian]

[He whistles, playing innocent, and internally happy to have John in the musebox now.]

I don't know, can I? Maybe I should just try that...

[fireflyheir]

[all the faces for you, Jack]

Don't you dare.

[2cool4guardian]

[Yes please, give him all the faces. He's enjoying this like you have no idea.]

Jealous, John?

[fireflyheir]

[you're terrible.]

No!!

[yes.]

[2cool4guardian]

[Thank you, thank you.]

I think I just saw your nose grow a little.
