Okay, so Jono could still take or leave being a woman on days like this, but he certainly couldn't complain about the assets that the island continued to give him along with the body swap

And of course at some point, his husband (wife, at the moment?) was going to have to drop by to bring him lunch.
The fish and chips probably weren't quite as greasy as Jono preferred, but they made up for it in excellent quality and flavor. And the beer was homemade, too.
He grinned at Jono and his fruit. "Should I have brought strawberries instead, then?"
Husband! They both identified as male, they could be trans for the day, to hell with whatever the island had in mind.
//Should--// Jono caught himself, blinked, and then gave a delighted little laugh before reaching for a strawberry and waving it around. "Should you have? I don't know, I certainly wouldn't complain about having more. But I'm not going to complain about fish and chips, either."
Even if they weren't greasy. Jono was never going to train you right, Lecter.
"C'mere. I have a mouth and I need to kiss you silly with it."
It was entirely possible that he'd say that to anybody who brought him fish and chips today, granted.
It was a good thing nobody else was likely to, then, or Hannibal might have opinions about it.
He grinned and leaned in for a kiss, then picked up a chip and held it out. It was at least a little greasy; he hadn't drained them as well as he might otherwise have. But he wasn't buying an industrial deep-fryer and cheap oil just for the weekend.
"Ah, this is what love feels like," Jono teased, wearing a silly little grin as he leaned forward to eat that chip right there were Hannibal was holding it. Because nothing said romance like french fries at work, really. "Have I mentioned lately that you're my favourite? You're my favourite."
Dante was a trailblazer like that. "Yeah, that's me," he said evenly, stalking further into the shop. "Can I talk to you for a second?" he said. "You used to do like, superhero shit, right?"
Well, that was enough to get Jono to sober up a little, right there.
"Still do, on occasion," he agreed, raising an eyebrow and frowning thoughtfully. "Were you looking for advice, or are you rounding up the cavalry?"
Because Jono was absolutely willing to provide either. Even if it meant potentially blasting this face off, too. Well. Preferably not. But emergencies were emergencies...

Just saying.

... probably. It depended on who the boobs belonged to.
"Starsmore?" he asked, stepping into the store.

He was having a good day, okay? Boobs or not, he was having a good day.
... Anyway, boobs were fun and were absolutely not a dealbreaker anyhow, just so long as he didn't go running.
"Dante, I presume?"
Even without using his telepathy, that one was easy enough to figure out. Not many people around here called him 'Starsmore' to his face.
