[HE'S RUFFLED! Nero gives the customary amount of whining, swatting Jason's hand away sleepily.]

Someone slept well...

[mind_blown]

Yeah, I'm surprised too. I was planning on finishing that book, but you seemed to be havin' a good time.

[so he didn't take it back. he switches from ruffling to brushing his hair away, and then lets his hand drop.]

Meanwhile, you're up late.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Grumble, looks down the front of his shirt, no boob.]

Got texted inna middle of the night. Raven bein' all melodramatic...

[mind_blown]

That's the perfect time for melodrama.

And damn, I really was out cold.

[gigadevilbreaker]

Yuh-huh. Too goth to sleep.

[No boob means it's safe to take off his shirt!]

...That's almost like, three whole nights. How d'you feel?

[mind_blown]

[you and boobs. but he considers that.]

Rested. Which, s'better than it has been for awhile now. I'll take it.

[and then back at him.]

So, you gonna go around as yourself today?

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Mutters as he gets up to search for clean clothes,]

If I don't, it's gonna look like it's still bugging me.

[mind_blown]

[he watches him as he does that.]

... Huh.

[he's going to stand up. and... go wrap his arms around Nero from behind, pulling him into a hug. he rests his chin on the top of Nero's head.]

That so.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Nero blinks at the sudden embrace, but after a beat, softens against Jason. Lets his one arm wrap over Jason's and breathes out a long, soft sigh.]

...I'll bounce back. It's what I do.

[mind_blown]

Like a cockroach.

[he teases, as he doesn't let him go]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Huffs in BIG OFFENSE!]

Just like how I'm bouncing back from that gross, hurtful comparison.

I'm definitely more like an extra determined three legged dog.

[mind_blown]

That's the nicer way I could've said that, sure.

[he dips his head to kiss his temple, before letting him go]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Though freed, Nero takes the chance to turn around instead and catch Jason in his own embrace, loosely draping his arms over his shoulders.]

That make you the scrappy stray cat in this scenario?

[mind_blown]

Aw man, next time someone uses "been compared to a cat" in Never Have I Ever, I'm gonna have to drink.

But I dunno. I never put much thought into my spirit animal or whatever.

[gigadevilbreaker]

I think we're all done with drinking for a while, considering.

[A cheeky smile,]

So that's why the rest of your family were birds and bats and you just went with a 'hood'?

[mind_blown]

... Maybe? That might be our dad's influence, and who knows why he went with a "bat."

[he does not know the origin of the red hood]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[if only u knew,]

Yeah, he seems like a wealth of great decisions there.

[mind_blown]

Guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

[what if-- he leans down for a quick kiss]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[then everything has gone according to plan, gimme kiss]

Don't say that. He makes your bowling ball look downright Stylish.

[mind_blown]

[oh my god-- he shoves him away playfully]

I deserved that after the cockroach comment, huh.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Laughs-- but bounds right back into Jason's arms, leaping onto him to pay him back with a playful kiss.]

Yup.

[mind_blown]

[you dork.

he feels pretty light at this, catching Nero easily. but also, playing a little hard to get with the kisses as he pulls back]

I told you, I'm rude.

[gigadevilbreaker]

And I'm persistent.

[How dare you play hard to get with me, sir. If Jason wasn't going to take kisses, then he would suffer nuzzles against his neck]

[mind_blown]

[the great thing is, jason just has to back up towards the bed, and dump him on it unceremoniously.]

Is that a challenge?

[he's torn between hard to get and kissing him senseless]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He's thrown onto the bed with a peal of laughter, sprawled out on the unmade sheets. Instead of getting up, though, he smirks at Jason from where he's lying, like are you really gonna leave me here and NOT kiss me senseless?]

Maybe.
