The Tiberius J. Swann Education Facility

Who: Jay, Rocky and perhaps a bit of Ikon
When: Saturday Night
Where: Rocky's dorm
What: The truth comes crashing down

Jay had been a bit edgy all week. It was probably due in large part to the fact that it was that time of the month, but she was sure there was more to it. She had finally been filled in on several of the dirty little secrets that were tangled up with her fucked up, secondary family tree and she wasn't exactly pleased with what she'd discovered. But it seemed that things had taken a turn this week in particular so she'd done her best to let it go. Still, the weight of carrying this secret was starting to get to her.

All week long, Jay would spot Raquel out and about and she would see an expression on her face and notice her mannerisms and see so much of their father, their siblings, in her. She was pretty sure that other woman thought she was a crazy stalker by now, or that she had eyes for that skinny demon that was always with her, and she kind of expected her to confront her pretty much any day now. But the waiting was killing her. And she wasn't sure how much more of it she could take.

All it took was a bottle and a half of wine and a killer buzz to put things into motion. Jay hadn't intended to do things this way, but she had a slight issue with impulse control when she was drinking, at least when she was drinking heavily, and didn't always make the best choices. And this, showing up at Rocky's door and knocking on it with the intent of telling her everything, was probably not the best decision. But there she was, waiting for the girl to open up, her photo album tucked under one arm and the rest of the second bottle of wine in the had of the other.

Who: Charlie and Jay
When: Friday night
Where: starting at school and heading to Boston
What: a "date"
Warning: hard smexin', totally NOT planned!

In all honesty, Charlie was a little nervous. He'd not been on a date with anyone but Ava in a long time. Granted, this was meant to be a fake date. Jay was doing him a favor, and they were really just hanging out, but he still felt awkward about the whole thing. It was a very good thing he wasn't superstitious in addition to being nervous, because the calendar said it was the thirteenth. Friday the thirteenth. But, no, he wasn't superstitious. Just nervous, and it was evident in how long it took him to get ready.

Charlie felt like a fucking teenage girl with the number of things he'd tried on before settling on a dark, grey/blue suit. At first, he had the vest and the jacket, but that just made it look stuffy when paired with the tie. So Charlie ditched the suit jacket and decided he'd throw on his wool coat over everything for their travels, and just look semi-relaxed with the sleeves of his shirt rolled up.

His hair took even longer to fix, but that was pretty normal for Charlie. Getting that mussed to perfection look was not easy, especially since he hadn't been trying all that hard in the appearance department lately. He was trying tonight though. He'd promised as much to his niece, and while the date wasn't real, it needed to appear that it was.

When he was finally ready, he headed over to Jay's room and knocked firmly on the door twice.

Who: Frankie and Jay
When: Thursday night (after 8pm)
Where: Frankie's room
What: drinking and FIRE! (and some VERY naughty stuff...)

Frankie was super excited for Jay to come over. The girls were gonna get their drink on tonight! Plus, it would be nice to hang out with another fire user, even if Jay wasn't as advanced with using her power. It would be fun! Frankie always looked forward to making new friends, and she had high hopes with Jay.

After tidying up her room a bit (because she could be a real slob), Frankie got herself cleaned up and then started searching through her wine collection. She was uncorking a very nice merlot when the knock came at her door.
