Warren
Studying wasn't a problem for Jamie. All he had to do was pop out a couple of dupes, have them each read a chapter or two, absorb them, and boom, he knew stuff.

When it came to subjects he truly loved, though, he preferred to do things the old-fashioned way, which was why he was spending his Saturday night in the library, combing through the crime section. He was just doing a little side project for Forensics Club, not for a grade or anything, but researching the history of detective work was so fascinating that before long, his arms were full of books.

Which made things a little more awkward when, heading to check-out, he turned a corner and almost walked face-first into Warren Worthington chest.

"Oops," Jamie said, stopping short just in time. The books jumbled a little in his arms, threatening to spill.

	"No, I understand my appeal," Jamie replied with a shrug. "I'm a self-made threesome, apparently." Not that he understood the appeal himself, mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jamie waved his hand dismissively. "Nah, I need a more challenging target." After a pause, he said, "...you know I'm totally kidding, right?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"No, it really isn't. Believe me. Bad publicity, especially the wrong kind, can ruin your life. Strive for good publicity. Make do with mediocre publicity. Handle your scandals. But don't ever aim for bad publicity if you can help it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He smiled back. "Keeping your options open." He gave him a playful pat to the shoulder. "That's always a good practice." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"My options as a murderer, yes." Then he remembered that he was holding a bunch of forensics books. "...wait, now this kind of looks bad." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
