2nd Floor Common Room | Sunday Morning

There was weird stuff happening on the island again and Jim wasn't affected. He'd woken up as himself and he'd stayed himself and he was still currently himself while sprawled on one of the couches in the common room.

Considering classes were done for the term, he probably should have still been asleep instead of up this early and out of bed but he couldn't resist the allure of possibly seeing some people he knew acting like people they weren't. He was an opportunistic jackass that way. But, he didn't think he could be blamed. If people were gonna go all weird, he had the right to laugh at them if they did stupid stuff, right?

Right.

He figured he had to be properly awake to do anything though so he was eating some 'borrowed' cereal and watching some motivational on TV to get himself going. Except all the TV was doing was boring him so he hoped the cereal was really magic or something to make up for it.

[Jim's normal and the CR's open]

"Why?" Helen asked, mock sweetly. "So I fit in better with your idea of what a woman should look like?"

Her hair was clean (... mostly) and that was good enough for her.

"Nope," Jim laughed, shaking his head. "No, I was just trying to prevent birds from nesting in your hair, having babies and using it as their bathroom. I was being helpful!"
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Ugh.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)
"No, you were being an ass," Helen informed him, gathering up some art supplies. He wasn't making her feel like staying, no. "And you still are."

"That's very presumptuous of you," Jim told her, shaking his head. "Honestly, I was just trying to be helpful but all these assumptions about me are hurtful. Can't give a guy the benefit of a the doubt?"
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Neutral as it gets.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"When he, like so many others of his kind, decides to initiate contact by commenting on how I look?" she retorted. "No, not really. Wonder why. I should probably adore you for deigning to try and be helpful, in case I don't know what the expectations are."
pursuedthestars: ([neu] hands clean)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2013-04-28 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"Why is your hair like that?" Jim asked, tilting his head to one side and trying not to smirk. "Doesn't it take a lot of upkeep? You know, hedging and trimming and fertilizing?"

Such an ass.
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Almost Natlike.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 04:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"Wow. You must get laid a lot with these people skills."

Eyerolling. That also looked exactly the same.

"Well, I've been with you so I guess I can't be that bad." Jim knew she wouldn't get that but he also didn't care. "What's your name, anyway? If we're bonding, I figured we should be on a first name basis."
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Ugh.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Helen might not have gotten that, but she still managed to look briefly nauseated by what he was implying. Sorry but there was literally nothing about him that was appealing to her.

"Yeah, I really don't think you need to know my name."
pursuedthestars: ([neu] back home)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2013-04-28 04:43 pm (UTC)(link)
"I could make one up for you," Jim told her, shrugging, "and it'd probably be worse than your actual name. Or we could just exchange information and be friendly with each other."
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Issues.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
"But I'm not gonna stick around," Helen pointed out, nodding at her art supplies. "And there's no name you could call me that'd actually have any other effect than proving you're a jerk. And I already know that."
pursuedthestars: ([neu] thinky thoughts)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2013-04-28 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Art supplies?" He glanced down at the supplies in her arms and raised an eyebrow. "What, like painting and drawing and stuff? Didn't know that was your thing. Thought you were a cook."
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Neutral as it gets.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"I make collages. They tend to make men uncomfortable." Well, thy made her father uncomfortable. "Which you couldn't have known because this is quite literally the first fucking time you've met me."
pursuedthestars: ([hap] bright eyes)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2013-04-28 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
"Au contraire."

But, she wouldn't know that until she was back to normal. And then he'd demand an apology for her rudeness! He so wouldn't get it though.

"And nothing makes me uncomfortable. That's a generalization."
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Almost Natlike.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"My hair makes you uncomfortable."

She didn't really think that. She also didn't care.
pursuedthestars: ([hap] easy rider)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2013-04-28 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
"No, your hair just concerns me because I've never seen it in that style," Jim corrected. "It's just trying to look out for my fellow human being there. Trying to be nice."
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Almost Natlike.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Helen rolled her eyes again. "So if I wondered whether you should shave your face, would that be nice too?"
pursuedthestars: ([hap] easy rider)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2013-04-28 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Jim rubbed at the scruff on his face and smirked. "Depends. Why do you think I should shave?"

Shrug. "It might make you marginally more appealing. Not to me, obviously."
pursuedthestars: ([hap] bright eyes)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2013-04-28 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Obviously," Jim said, amused. "Who do you think I'd appeal to, then?"
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Ugh.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
"Unimaginative straight girls, probably."

And she wasn't one of those.
pursuedthestars: ([hap] geek)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2013-04-28 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"Ah, so you're not straight?" Jim asked, sending a mock frown her way. "That's pretty sad since you do look good naked."
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Issues.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, there came that slightly horrified look again.

"You don't know that. Gross. What, have you been spying or something? I can report you."
pursuedthestars: ([hap] smirk)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2013-04-28 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Laughing, Jim shook his head. "And how are you gonna prove that I was spying? Got evidence?"
whenshewasnice: ([plot] Helen: Almost Natlike.)

[personal profile] whenshewasnice 2013-04-28 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
"You just commented on my naked body."

Which he had not seen. Right?

(It was both right and wrong at the same time.)
