Of Pink Tights And Broken Nose | Closed to Feferi

[hoperidesagain]

Well, Jake had leaned heavily on Sollux for the things he pulled on Janey. Now it was time for the check in that he honestly wasn't looking that forward to. Breaking a fella's nose didn't really make you want to interact with them again in his experience. BUT! Feferi was obviously a friend to Dirk, and so he wouldn't be deterred. He would make amends with her, and hopefully get this back on the right track.

golgathasTerror [GT] began pestering cuttlefishCuller [CC]



GT: Hey feferi! Its jake!
GT: I
GT: Okay well first off im totally fine now!
GT: Jane patched me right up and then i got me a good nap.
GT: Some water and food and i was right as rain.
GT: So if you were worried about me no need to be now!
GT: I have been wondering about you though!! You okay?
GT: You seemed a little shook up by it and i mean who wouldnt be right? I had a blast sparring though.
GT: Like whoa you had the moves!! I couldnt even get a HOOK in!
GT: Get it. Like a fishing hook.



Great job there, Jape.

Jake was getting ready to reply when he thought something seemed off. And...his gillfrond. Welp. It was...too late to comment on that now. Just..roll with this lady, Jake.

GT: Sounds like youve got it all handled and
GT: Wait uh
GT: How many people are you planning on inviting?
GT: Cause just to be clear when it comes to dirk often less people the better.
GT: Like good friends of his is a grand idea but i dont know if he has so many to be comfortable with a really large crowd.
GT: Just you know
GT: An FYi for you.

GT: Oh! Id like a target range myself. i always try to keep up to speed with my marksmanship.
GT: Plus im sure there are others who wanna practice blasting things.
GT: And a boxing ring!
GT: And maybe like a safe test area or something? Never know how powers can react to certain stuff.
GT: Why you asking by the way?

cuttlefishCuller [CC] has ceased pestering golgathasTerror [GT]

Feferi clicked her phone to silent and exhaled. Almost blew it!!!! Humming to herself she resumed ordering appetizers.

[hoperidesagain]

And before he could even respond, Feferi had ended it all. He blinked and considered messaging her again but...if she was that quick to just end it, then she wouldn't respond to him.

Lord.

What was all of that? Illegal?? Weird suggestion?? PRETTY PROW??? What was his prow and how was it pretty? So many questions...so much Feferi to deal with.

Well.

He'd just have to wait for the party and hope for the best. He said he wouldn't tell Dirk and he won't...but now he feels some kind of fear for his bro.
