Room 238 [Sunday Afternoon]

[whitedeathpod]

The room was too empty, too quiet. He'd taken to talking to Bertram to make some sort of noise but a DRD who could only waggle eyestalks at you really wasn't the best person to have conversations with. And there was nothing left in his head anymore to talk to. The fact that he actually considered voluntarily talking to Umberto scared him a

Cameron had wanted to drop by sooner, but Molly has sounded so tired that he figured it was a good idea to give John some space first. Then he remembered that too much space wasn't always a good thing either so armed with a tub of rocky road ice cream, he headed down the hall and knocked on the door.

[whitedeathpod]

That broke him out of the staring reverie and he trudged over to the door, opening it a crack.

Seeing Cameron out there had him jolt. "Hey."

[cameronmitchell]

"Yo," Cameorn greeted, for a moment looking at John as if he was making sure it was really his friend and not whatever the hell he had talked to on Monday.

Then he managed a smile and held up the tub. "Brought some food for the soul."

[whitedeathpod]

"Oh," he said, opening the door a little. "Thanks. Come in."

Isabel had wanted to stop by she didn't want to push. But stopping by with coffee wasn't pushing. It was just checking up on friends.

Balancing a carrier of mochas from the Perk, she knocked on the door.

[whitedeathpod]

John opened the door a crack. "Oh, hey. Come in."

[izzyalienqueen]

"Hi," she said quietly as she stepped into the room. "How are you?"

[whitedeathpod]

"Dandy," he said sarcastically before shaking his head. "Sorry, sorry."

Luke took a deep breath after pacing back and forth in front of the door for a good ten minutes, then knocked.

[whitedeathpod]

He'd still been staring at the bag and jumped at the knock. He opened the door, eyes widening when he saw Luke.

"Um, hey."

[tatooine_doofus]

Luke held out his hands in a placating gesture. "I wanted to see how you were," he said softly.

Luke was a much better Jedi than his father.

[whitedeathpod]

John paused for a moment before opening the door and letting Luke in.

Aeryn hasn't been back here since last night, and when she finally decides she's exhausted enough to head back from the gym, she's expecting to come back to an empty room. So when she opens the door and sees John there, she's both really relieved and equally surprised.

[whitedeathpod]

"Hey," he says. The bag's since been kicked to the floor and he's moved to leaning against a counter in the kitchen.

[can_be_more]

"I thought you were leaving last night," she says quietly.

[whitedeathpod]

"I didn't leave," he says, shrugging.

After her talk with Aeryn the night before, Rory had decided that she needed to see John as soon as she could.

So she walked down the hall to 238 and knocked on the door, hoping that he hadn't gone home since last night.

[whitedeathpod]

John got up off the couch and went over to open the door. And he almost shut it again when he saw Rory.

[auroryborealis]

"Hi," she said.

[whitedeathpod]

He swallows thickly. "Hey."
