Room 228 - Sunday afternoon

[fh_jackass]

[From here.]

Logan unlocked the door and flipped on the light to the room.

"Oh, no way!" he exclaimed. "This is so not going to work."

"What?" Jake pushed his way past Logan then stopped dead. "Oh, you've got to be kidding me!"

[fh_jackass]

"Great. Fantastic. You had to go and be rude to tube-head, didn't you?" Logan glared at Jake.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Me? Who tried bribing the tube-head? What do you think he'd do with a 100 bucks, anyway? He's a head in a tube!" Jake glared back and waved his hands wildly around, avoiding smacking Logan in the face by sheer luck.

[fh_jackass]

Logan stepped sideways to avoid Jake's hands and stopped just short of hitting the wall. "I don't know. Buy a year's worth of squeegees?"

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Following him, Jake poked him in the chest with his hand. "You are such a psycho. And I can't believe you're trying to tell me snow monsters trashed house." He poked Logan again. "Seriously, man."

[fh_jackass]

Logan smacked Jake's hand away. "There were snow monsters everywhere, dude. Besides, if I wanted to trash the house, there'd've been a major party."

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, right," Jake snorted. He'd stopped poking Logan, but was still crowding him. Not that it took much, considering how very, very tiny this room was. "I can't live here with you. I'd go insane within the hour."

[fh_jackass]

"Really?" Logan said, with idle curiosity. "How would I be able to tell the difference?" He put a hand against Jake's chest and gently pushed him away.

Jake ended up leaned against the dresser. He folded his arms over his chest. "First of all - hey! Secondly, I'm not sharing a bath--" He paused and looked around wildly. Closet door, door out to the hallway, closet door. "There is no bathroom! There is no words for how much I hate you."

[fh_jackass]

"What?!" Logan said. He double-checked all the doors. "What the hell? How can it not have a bathroom?"

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Hate you. So much. All your fault." Jake was not budging on that.

After visiting Han at the clinic she was walking down the hall towards her room when she notices two unfamiliar faces. Jessica taps softly on the open door and gives a friendly wave and a big smile.

"Hello there? I am sorry to bother you two...just thought I'd say hi. Are you moving in here?" she asks, scanning the empty room.

[fh_jackass]

"Not if I can help it," Logan said.

[mrs-tate.livejournal.com]

"Ohh, oh my..." Jessica gives a most concerned look. "I am sorry. Is there anything I can do to help it?"

[ooc - sorry sorry, just noticed your ooc comment. I can make Jessica leave if you want?]

[fh_jackass]

[ooc: No, you're fine. The boys are just in a bad mood. :) They might be rude at you, but it's not the muns.]

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake waved a vague hello to Jessica whom he recognized from music class. "You got us here - no, I'm sorry , of course, the tentacled snow monster got us here. Not your fault at all!"

[fh_jackass]

Logan turned to Jessica. "Did you see the snow monsters yesterday?"

[mrs-tate.livejournal.com]

"Ohhh no...I suppose I was one of the completely oblivious, in my own world type ones." Jessica nods and offers an appologetic smile.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake arched his eyebrows towards Logan. "Well, I'm convinced. Obviously you're innocent."

[mrs-tate.livejournal.com]

Jessica, sensing a certain unpleasantness in the air, looks around the room and smiles. "I don't know...I think this room has potential to be quite lovely. I mean some curtains, a few throw pillows..."

[fh_jackass]

"Sure," Logan said, looking around. "Just take out those two walls," he threw out an arm in either direction, barely missing Jake, "and maybe the ones beyond them, create a little more space, include a bathroom, and, oh, yeah, put him on the sixth floor," Logan pointed at his roommate. "Brighten the place up nicely."

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Kill you and hide your dead body under the floor boards," Jake grumbled back, jerking his head back to avoid getting smacked in the face. "Now that would cheer me up, at least, even if it won't do much for the room."

[mrs-tate.livejournal.com]

"Ohh come now, you don't really mean that dear, do you?" Jessica overlaps her hands over her chest.

[mrs-tate.livejournal.com]

Jessica's eyes narrow as she looks at the walls and scrathes her chin. "Well, I think that might be a tad hard to do. But you could always try dear." Jessica looks at Jake, then back at Logan. "Oh, be nice now...aren't you two friends?"

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Hell, no!"

[fh_jackass]

"God, no!"

[mrs-tate.livejournal.com]

Jessica gives a sort of 'opps!' smile. "Ohhh, I see..." She grits her teeth and looks back and forth at the boys. "Sorry...I mean I only thought that since you were moving into the same room together that you wanted to you see, but...oh my this is quite awkward then..." Jessica looks at the floor.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"No, we're here because the school administration are sadistic bastards." Jake looked oddly wistful when he said that.

[mrs-tate.livejournal.com]

"Oh, oh dear..." Jessica thinks for a second, then continues. "Well!...maybe we can look on the bright side? I mean...this situation may result in the two of you becoming close friends? You never know." Jessica shrugs her shoulders.

[fh_jackass]

Logan snorted. "Not likely," he said.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Sure, and I could stop drinking coffee. Please, he'll --" Jake pointed at Logan. "--probably get drunk and set the room on fire with us in it. Or maybe Tentacled Fire Monsters will do it."

[fh_jackass]

Logan rolled his eyes. "Dude, I have witnesses that saw the snow monster pull the house apart."

[mrs-tate.livejournal.com]

"Hmm..." Jessica's smile fades a tad. Fearing she was being more of a bother than any help at all, Jessica decides its best to leave them alone. "Well..I think I should be going. Ah, my goodness, I didn't even properly introduce myself. Where are my manners? Jessica Tate," she says, putting one hand over her heart. "I live just down the hall...room 232...and if either of you ever need anything, please, its not bother, okay? Okay. And I know it probably isn't much of a consolation to your current situation, but it is lovely to meet both of you" says Jessica with a welcoming smile.

[fh_jackass]

"I'm sorry," Logan said to Jessica. "He's an ass. It's nice to meet you. I'm Logan Echolls."

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Bye Jessica." Jake waved, waited until Jessica had at least turned away before taking a step forwards to poke Logan in the chest. "Look what you just did!"

[fh_jackass]

Logan flopped backwards on one of the beds and stared up. "Is this Hell?" he asked the ceiling. "Did I die yesterday? Is this how I'm being punished for my sins?"

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Frowning, Jake folded his arms over his chest and stepped over to stare down at Logan. "I wanted that bed. That's my bed. Stop being in my bed. You'll get germs all over it." He was being childish, he knew. He just didn't care.

[fh_jackass]

Logan looked at Jake, then spit into his hand and smeared the spittle on the bedcovers. "All yours," he said, standing up.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"I can't believe you did that." Jake looked from the bed to Logan. "Okay, I can." He poked him, then flattened his hands against Logan's chest and pushed him back into the bed. "Psycho boy. That's my bed you're defiling!"

[fh_jackass]

Logan sighed. "That's it," he said. He threw himself forward, tackling Jake and sending both of them tumbling to the floor.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Get. Off!" Jake demanded, and struggled against the weight of Logan holding him down, causing them to crash into the second bed.

[fh_jackass]

Logan rolled over and pinned Jake beneath him. "You'd better start behaving yourself, freak-boy," he said, glaring at Jake.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Hey, who jumped who here?" Jake protested, and wriggled. It didn't do much good. Possibly because usually when pinned like this, Jake didn't usually actually want to get away. At least not recently.

[fh_jackass]

"You're the one who's been poking and prodding and pushing," Logan said, demonstrating each on Jake as he said the words. He stood up and rested a foot on Jake's chest. "You gonna behave?"

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"All hail the conquering hero..." Jake reached up with his hands and pulled Logan's foot off his chest. "--Of no way, man!" Somebody had to pay for this situation, and it might as well be Logan.

[fh_jackass]

That threw Logan off-balance and he fell backwards onto the bed. Annoyed, he grabbed the nearest object and whacked Jake in the head with it.

Unfortunately, that object was a pillow, and thus not very effective as a weapon.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake gave him a stunned look. Pillow? he thought incredulously, then scrambled up on his feet, grabbed the pillow on the other bed and launched himself at Logan, using the pillow to bop Logan over the head.

[fh_jackass]

Logan threw his pillow aside and snatched the top blanket off the nearest bed. He threw the blanket over Jake's head and tried to pin him inside it.
