JD is currently in the cupboards of the cafeteria. There's a box on the ground next to him filled with forks.

One wouldn't think there'd be this many forks in one kitchen, but apparently they are overstocked on silverware.

He keeps coming across more forks on his search for the other materials he needs. Namely a box of spaghetti noodles, Prego

Comments

[reluctantxangel]

Nate had just come to get food. But he gets a bit sidetracked by the collecting of forks, and so he just watches JD for a while, quietly thoughtful.

"So... you're either gathering supplies for some sort of weird modern art, or... Yeah, that's all I've got."

[sensi_doctor]

"Wha-?" Bump. "Ow! Damnit. So should have seen that coming."

JD pulls his head out of the cupboard and turns around.

"No, not it, but very good guess." He throws the box of spaghetti he found into the bigger fork-holding box. "I am gathering supplies, but I'm no good with art. It's more of a..." JD tilts his head to the side. Descriptor word. Descriptor-. "Romantic thing."

[reluctantxangel]

Nate studies the box of forks for a second, pursing his lips thoughtfully, then looks back to JD. "Romantic thing. ...You're wooing someone with a bunch of forks? 'Cause if you can tell me how that works, I'm interested to hear it."

[sensi_doctor]

JD giggles laughs.

"Woo? God, I love that word. It's fun." He stands up, surveying the cupboards on the other side that he hasn't searched through yet and trying to think about the best way to go about this. "But, uh, no. I'm not wooing anyone." Another goofy grin at the word use-age. "It's not for me. Y'see... I'm trying to save a threesome."

Eeny, Meanie, Miney, Moe... Point, point, point, point.

Perfect way to choose which cupboard to search through next, JD. Really.

[reluctantxangel]

Nate shrugs. "I always liked it." He's in a good mood. Mattie's happy. It makes Nate a lot more friendly than he would be normally.

"You're trying to - wait, hold up. I'm confused."

[sensi_doctor]

"Okay. Uhm, hmm... the best way to describe... the OT3. One true threesome. It's an internet... term."

JD abandons the cupboard picking for now.

He'd much rather explain the glorious threesome. The club needs more members now, anyway.

"Oh! Have you read your journal? I mean, really read it?" Right, because the only reason you're the only person to notice the threesome action is because no one else is reading it right. Sure.

[reluctantxangel]

Nate hardly even looks at his journal most of the time. He pauses for a moment, and then sits on top of a table, feet on a chair next to it.

"Uh... no? What am I supposed to be reading there?"

[sensi_doctor]

"The threesome! It's amazing and they don't even know. It's like... I don't know When Harry Met Sally. All that bickering and best friendship, which finally leads to sleeping with each other. I don't think the OT3 is quite at that stage yet, but-"

Apologies Nate. JD has incredible trouble staying focused long enough to make much sense.

"Okay. So the OT3 is made up of Martha Jones, Desmond Descant, and the Doctor. Do you know... any of them?" If not, he'll happily provide descriptions. Note those descriptions will be very biased, but... they will be descriptions.

[reluctantxangel]

Nate is looking very skeptical. But amused. He's bored, and will therefore take his distractions and entertainment where he can get them. And he's not going to let on that he totally got the When Harry Met Sally reference without any explanation. Because he and Mat certainly don't have that movie in Mat's room, hidden in the DVD case for some action movie. Not at all.

"I know Martha, yeah." She's one of the few people he and Mat regularly spoke to, and Mat has this huge crush on her - he definitely knows Martha. "I don't think I've met the other two."

He's certain he hasn't met them, but that's just because he doesn't meet a lot of people willingly. Now that he doesn't have that reason anymore, he's meeting more people, but it's a process.

[sensi_doctor]

"Okay. Well... let's see if I can describe them. First you have Des who has dark, really nice hair and- Uhm, the Doctor is skinny with this spiky hair going on. They're both kind of cocky, but at the same time there's this darker side to them." Most of this JD thinks he's fabricating, it's frightening how closely his imagination sinks to truth. "The boys do most of the bickering. And the Doctor does most of the denial, but I could just think that, because he was the only one sober during the party. They were all kissing though. And it was so hot. There's just this dynamic. I don't know. They're perfect for each other. Any romantic comedy you can think of... just minus the comedy and add... drama, and they are better. It's... I don't know. It's something you have to see, I think, to really understand"

JD grins, glances at the box by his feet, and then shakes his head, smile quickly fading away. "Well, it's harder now, because of what... happened. Which is why I'm collecting all the forks."

[reluctantxangel]

"Okay, that all makes sense... even if it is weird and a little stalkery..."

Nate grins and leans forward, glancing from the forks to JD's face again. "But you still haven't explained where the forks come in."

[sensi_doctor]

"I'm okay with the weird, but stalkery? C'mon! I don't look like a stalker do I?" JD folds his arms and pouts.

He leans back against the cupboards behind him.

"Have you ever seen Lady and the Tramp?"

[reluctantxangel]

"I don't know. Stalkers probably don't look like stalkers, or they wouldn't be very good at it."

Nate pauses a moment. Yes, many times. He doesn't want to admit that either, but he decides he can pass it off as that having been when he was a kid.

"Yeah...?" He stops. "Oh, you're kidding."

Yeah, he got that much too quickly.

[sensi_doctor]

"Oh, sure they do. They look all stalkery and you don't want to look at them, cause they're all yick, and that's what makes them good. Cause no one wants to look at them."

JD smiles, glad he doesn't have to explain it any further.

"...no? Well. Not really. But I ran out of ideas. I need them all together in a room in some kind of romantic setting. It's the only way I can think to make them realize, unless I ran up to each of them smacking them in the forehead with a journal, yelling, JUST GET TOGETHER ALREADY, before I run off into the darkness... and I just don't think that'll do any good and this is much more romantic."

[reluctantxangel]

"I guess you've got a point," Nate says, still grinning. "You're kind of hard not to notice."

...Was that flirting? No, that wasn't flirting. Moving on.

"You think a candlelit spaghetti dinner with no forks is going to fix all their problems? ...And how's that supposed to work with three people?"

That's right, Nate. Shoot holes in JD's master plan.

[sensi_doctor]

JD smiles, heart going a little fluttery at the grin on Nate's face, but he'll just not think anything of that.

"I'll take that as a compliment."

He opens his mouth at the shooting of the holes in his plan. And for a second he can't even come up with anything to say in response.

"Not fix their problems, but at least get them in the same room and thinking about where the hell it all came from instead of, ya know, the other stuff. Then, at least, it'll keep them from not... being a them, anymore? They're having a hard time of it on their own... so. I feel like I have to do something."
