School had gone okay. School was always kind of easy for Ned. Sure, sometimes he had to study a little if he slacked off in class, but generally speaking if he listened to the lecture or whatever the teacher was talking about in class, he picked it up well.

No, this wasn't about school. This was about February. February meant Valentine's Day and that was for people who were in love or at least had a girlfriend and Ned had none of that. Sometimes he still missed Betty, but even if he thought about rekindling things, he knew he had to keep a large part of himself a secret and he wasn't sure that was fair. He'd seen how that went with Liz and MJ for Peter before MJ figured it out.

He sighed, stopping in front of Stark Towers with his thumbs looped into the straps of his backpack which were on his shoulder. Normally after school he hung out in the lobby for a while, but today opening those big, windowed doors seemed like a pretty taxing job.

	"Not really. I mean, I've seen her sort of, but we haven't talked." She looked like she might want to tear off her head or something. She was very pretty, but very intense - kind of like MJ, but with more bad-ass vibes. "It would be nice to have someone else who knows what's going on. Sometimes at school it can be like, really hard not to just spill everything." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You should talk to her," MJ said. "She's cool." She did understand how hard it was not to talk about things sometimes and was glad that she at least had Peter and Ned to talk to. And Tandy. She missed Shuri. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yeah, but like... how cool is she? I mean, like, would she even want to talk to me?" Ned knew he was into cool stuff, but that a lot of people found it lame. It was a thing he'd disagree with, but he didn't seem to get much of a say in social norms. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	MJ rolled her eyes. "She wouldn't be cool if she didn't want to talk to you." At least not by MJ's definition of cool. Ned was a great guy, smart and funny and loyal. Anyone who couldn't appreciate him was someone MJ didn't have time for. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eye if he got an eyeroll from her, her response still made him grin a bit like a puppy. "Thanks, MJ." He was feeling kind of better now. Maybe he didn't need a girlfriend right now. At least he had good friends, right? (ooc: Wrap here or on yours?) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yeah, whatever," MJ said, pulling a book out of her bag. "Now shut up and let me read." [wrap!] (Reply to this) (Parent)
