[ Jade, of course, was perhaps far too excited to meet everyone. Of course she had known John beforehand--that much was obvious. However, she hadn't seen him in quite a while. Bouncing in, she looks around before waving enthusiastically in Roses's direction. ] Rose!!

[ dave walks in with his usual shitty hands-shoved-in-pocket, head-slightly-tilted-down posture and somewhat smug but pokerface expression. even with excitement ringing in the back of his head like some jerkass from the salvation army in a santa suit getting attention for donations on a street corner during christmas time, he couldn't bring himself to do more than crack a cheesy smile to himself in solitude. yes, the solitude that is his dorm room half the time. that's pretty damnable.

he feels a sort of maladroit uneasiness crawling and grating at his skin, but he dismisses it as jittery perturbation; i mean, who wouldn't be nervous about meeting their best friends in real life for the first time ever? well, john's an exception, but still -- this is something big.

when he catches sight of jade making her way towards rose, he speeds up the pace of his walking, and wipes any bit of snappish urges from his mind. goddammit, stop that feathery balking shit. be cool. ]

Hey.

john was here dave is a loser!!!!!!!!!!

[ is there anything more exciting than meeting all of your best friends for the first time ever? NOPE. john was way to eager to make his way down to the cafeteria with with fast, but awkward, steps.

when he gets there, it takes him a minute to try to find his friends but then he sees jade, and dave soon after, his eyes following jade's path until he sees rose.

the biggest dork grin you can imagine when john starts running towards the quickly-forming group, and as soon as he's close enough he lunges onto his poker-faced friend. ]

Daaaave! Jade! Rooooose!!

[When she sees them coming one by one it's rather over-whelming. For a moment she tries not to smile as Jade and even Dave come in. But when John and all his enthusiasm comes through the door and rushes at them, it becomes too hard for her to force a flat faced look. So instead she goes on for a full Duchenne smile. One that couldn't be faked by any normal means and was frankly genuine. She didn't want to feel ambivalent or unsure about this. They were all friends before and meeting in person shouldn't change that. So she smiles at the three as they all get to the table.]

Glad everyone could be here on such short notice. Next time we meet I'll try to plan something a bit more timely, so I apologize for the sudden developments.
