1.
Aeryn had just been watching the party, not really in the mood to talk, and that was fine with her. She felt she should be there and she was technically available, and she didn't feel like making much of an effort otherwise.
At least until the only person who knew she was ticklish came up behind her and danced his fingers along her ribs, and she was too startled to stop the reaction. He'd be punished later, and wouldn't even mind.

2.
The fight hadn't gone well. Aeryn was fine except for some scrapes and bruises, they'd killed a good invasion's worth of stuff, but and most of her team made it out unscathed. The other team hadn't been as lucky, and they were probably going to be in massive trouble with the administration for doing this again.
When Aeryn got back to the room support was being run from, John greeted her with, "So what's for dinner?"

3.
Aeryn had no idea what John might have said to Callisto five seconds after welcoming her back to Fandom for Homecoming, but when she looked up, Cal had him in a headlock and he was attempting to noogie her into submission, which wasn't exactly working. Rather than intervene, because she doubted John would die, Aeryn just watched as they poked each other and John stomped on Callisto's foot and they pulled each other's hair until they both got either bored or tired.
And after all that, still looking winded and possibly sore, as soon as Callisto's back was to him, John was putting bunny ears on her and grinning like an idiot.

4.
Halfway through dinner, John went quiet and randomly commented, "I could see us with like, twelve kids."
After choking on her water due to what would have been a giggle if Aeryn ever giggled, she actually looked up at him. "Wait, you were serious?"

5.
John knew Aeryn hadn't been looking forward to Ethics this week, but she hadn't expected to look up halfway during the lecture and see him behind the window. He waved doofily at her, and then undid the zipper on his hoodie to reveal a shirt stained with bleach, reading "VADER HAS ACNE."
She stared, and looked between him and Vader, who paused, but did nothing.
John then pulled off that shirt to reveal another one under it. "GROUP HUG?"
Another glance at Vader, whose voice was getting louder, but who otherwise paid no attention to the suicidal boy outside the classroom. She was waiting for the snap, but looked over at John again anyway.
At the moment, his face was pressed against the glass between his hands, breathing all over it.
"Miss Sun," Vader said finally, halfway into what had actually turned into a little laugh.
Aeryn shook her head. "Tickle in my throat," she explained, and was glad to see that John had fled like a fleeing thing.
