Room 312, Friday evening

[blondecanary]

In the interests of her sanity, Dinah was staying in tonight. With a mix of music, a cat, and a roommate. And a date to look forward to.

...If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
I'd make you believe
I'd make you forget...

The door was open.

[for wantstocheer but open for visitors for either roommate]

Comments

[asgardcreated]

Jon was trying to hide from people, which meant that getting down one floor and to Claire's room was an exercise in stealth.

He made it there with clothes on and unmolested, so he figured he had done pretty good. And was feeling a bit proud of himself as he knocked on the door.

[wantstocheer]

"Hey, Jon, it's open," Claire called.

[asgardcreated]

Jon stepped slowly into the room and looked around. "Is it safe? No horde of females with rope?"

[blondecanary]

Dinah paused, staring at the Guy-a-like. "Well, usually I leave that for the salle and the fourth date..."

Look, she's staying on her bed. Being good! She has to let this go somewhere!

[asgardcreated]

"Only the fourth date? Shouldn't that be like, a second date topic?" he joked. Another person here was a good thing. Maybe. Dinah was cute.

"So, are we hiding?"

[wantstocheer]

"We're totally hiding," Claire said. "But you can hide with us."

Hmm. Yeah, right, that might defeat the purpose. But Dinah was there.

"Come in, sit down."

[blondecanary]

It was a tribute to Dinah's self-control-- or maybe all the amping of hormones around Zack and George and other guys-- that she didn't make some comment about Jon and threesomes, because that was just not happening.

Weird to be the sorta-chaperone, though.

"We are. We go out for cold showers if we have thoughts that make us want to leave," she said very solemnly. "You can't join us for that part, though."

[asgardcreated]

He wasn't about to tempt fate by sitting on one of the beds, so he chose a spot on the floor near the door.

Jon was planning on holding his tongue, but knew if he did he would have to give up his guy card. "Not even if I asked nicely?"

[wantstocheer]

"That would sort of defeat the purpose," Claire pointed out.

[blondecanary]

"Really a lot," Dinah agreed, starting to blush even as she laughed. "Kudos for asking right off, though. We'll cover you if you have to run into the guy's shower, though. Hit people with pillows."

[asgardcreated]

"It's like a rule, in the guy handbook or something, that I have to ask." Jon told them, grinning. "And I think we're going to run out of cold water before the week is over."

[wantstocheer]

Claire giggled. He had such a cute smile.

"Is that even possible?"

[blondecanary]

"We can always take hot, steamy baths if we do," Dinah pointed out, hoping to return blush-fire on Jon.

[asgardcreated]

No blushing, but Jon's eyes went sort of blank for a moment while he imagined that. Claire and Dinah in a big bubble bath... Jon coughed and leaned back against the wall, pulling his knees up a bit.

"Um, yeah, you could do that too," he choked out. He could use a pillow about now. Or a cold shower.

[wantstocheer]

Claire's mind went to an image of her and Jon in a tub... and yeah.

"Hmm, hiding with boys doesn't work so well," she decided. "At least the ones who aren't gay."

[blondecanary]

Dinah TK'd a pillow at Jon, just for giggles, and picked up her kitten, cuddling Camille and saying, "Okay, this is taking a turn for the Blue Heel Journals. So Jon, tell us what non-hormonal things you did today?"
