Who: Euri, John, and Bobby
What: Euri and John break into Bobby's room to search for a lighter but find out that he's regained his bracelet.
When: Day 266
Where: Sigyn 202
Rating: PG to PG-13

[ He awakens from the floor, groggy and finally with his bracelet. Regaining consciousness leaves him uneasy, and his head spins. Walking shakily to his couch, he collapses on it. He needs a little rest first before he can comprehend what happened.

Good thing he's not expecting any company, so he can just relax and wait for the nausea to wear off. Right? ]

[Okay, that gets a disgusted look from Pyro. "Prettiest blue eyes?"]

She reads romance novels. A lot of them. [An aside to Bobby, before turning his attention back to Euri.] That's definitely not this one. He's anything but nice.

[congealed]

[ This is so strange. It was odd enough that the Doctor didn't have a name, but now there's three? ]

Are they from the same world or something?

[occulthymns]

[Pyro gets a sour look.] That has nothing to do with it. You need to see him to get it.

[But her tone lightens up a bit at Bobby's question, even though she is no help whatsoever.]

It's some kind of regeneration thing. Um... 'new body, mostly new personality, new life' was how he put it.

[ex_outofcontrol435]

I don't care if he's got three sets of eyes, I'm not swooning over them. I don't need to see anything.

[But now he's confused too. He knew there were two doctors, and he knows about the alien thing, but he never knew this much.]

That's why there's so many of them? He regenerates whole new bodies?

[congeals]

[ He needs a second to process this. ]

Woah.

[occulthymns]

It isn't swooning! It's having a healthy appreciation for beauty.

[Or something. She has been reading a few too many romance novels lately....]

Anyway, I don't really know anything else about it. You'd have to ask either of them for details.

1/3

[ex_outofcontrol435]

Euri, you know you're nuts sometimes, right? You know better than anyone that I don't go for dudes, so their "beauty" can -

2/3

[ex_outofcontrol435]

[Oh god. What did he just say in front of Bobby. Oh god. He looks stunned enough about the doctors to let this slide, so maybe? Please? Let him not question that "better than anyone"?]

done!

[ex_outofcontrol435]

- anyway. Don't care. The one I described is losing his shit right now, and I was just catching Bobby up on that.

[congealed]

[ He stays silent but blinks in surprise. Whether it's still from the shock about the Doctors or from what John said isn't clear. ]

[occulthymns]

[Oh John. This is now not about the Doctor being weird and all about his life choices.]

Are you sure? I'm not sure you're sure about that.

[ex_outofcontrol435]

Don't you start now, too. That was one curse. He was the one who took it too far, and I was the only one there who seemed to get how creepy that was. So don't start questioning me.

[He's forgotten about Bobby for the time being, because really, he'd rather not have his not-girlfriends questioning his sexuality so often.]

[congeals]

[ Ah, so he didn't mishear. He won't say anything (he knows better by now), but he can't help but smirk. ]

[occulthymns]

[Oh wow, someone sounds defensive. One glance at Bobby and she's smirking too.]

I don't know, both of you seemed to be really into it to me.

... But maybe that's just how guys normally kiss each other, I've never seen it before.

[ex_outofcontrol435]

Euri! [He clenches his free fist, then glances back at Bobby and nearly decks both of them. His hand actually shakes with the urge.

Instead, he just puts down his cup of tea so hard that it splashes all over Bobby's desk.]

I got what I needed. You two enjoy your tea party.

[congeals]

[ Instantly, his brow furrows, and he places his cup to the side before standing up to reach out and grab John's arm. ]

Relax, man.

[ He's still feeling drowsy, but he's able to maintain his balance, at least. ]

[occulthymns]

[She jumps at that, holding her own mug a little tighter.]

Y - yeah! I wasn't being serious. I was just kidding around.

[ex_outofcontrol435]

[He shakes off Bobby's hand, giving him a dirty (but less murderous) look.]

There's nothing funny about it. It was the gods fucking around again, and it was gross. End of story.

[congeals]

Fine. Sorry. [ He sympathizes with how horrible curses can be, but there's no need to be so defensive.

Great, now he has spilled tea to clean up. With a sigh, he stumbles to the countertop for some paper towels. ]

[occulthymns]

[She frowns faintly, and she keeps an eye on Bobby while he does that, in case he collapses or faints or something. At the same time she'll walk over to Pyro to rub his arm lightly.]

I won't do it again, okay?

[ex_outofcontrol435]

[He drops his voice, obviously trying his best to stay patient despite the anger boiling in his voice.]

I know there's stuff you don't get, but if a guy isn't into other guys, he doesn't want to be told he is. Or even be questioned on it. Alright?

[congeals]

Dude, you're overreacting.

[ But he won't say more than that because at least John's trying to calm down. ]

[occulthymns]

[Euri nods firmly, making a mental note of this.

Then she glances at Bobby, because she's curious about whether he's right.]

It never even comes up back home. Guys just don't think about other guys like that ever. They've always got a lot of girls after them, so there's no point.

[ex_outofcontrol435]

And if I told Rogue you kissed a dude, how would you react?

[He's forgotten about Euri for the moment, annoyed at Bobby playing the superior act again when he's not even being violent. Just correcting a mistake, that's all.]

[congeals]

[ ...You've got a point, John. ]

I'm not arguing that being forced to do something isn't messed up. Just that you're getting too defensive.
