The Perk, Thursday morning

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

Johnny sat at a small table near an open window, staring out while he enjoyed his first cup of coffee. Many, many things were playing about through his mind, and he wanted nothing more than the quietness of the morning to help clear the more troubling ones away.

Not that he was too terribly troubled. Really.

(ooc: Johnny's just chillin'; the Perk is open for any and all Perkish needs..)

Adam was up early, not that should really be a shock to anyone. He hadn't attempted to change his routines from back home.

He was in the mood for some coffee, hence why he was at the Perk and ordering some.

Noticing the other guy, Johnny nodded a greeting when he caught his attention, "How's it going?"

[im-afrog.livejournal.com]

Adam smiled and shrugged. "So far, so good. Killing time before my workshops. You?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Pretty much the same, except I don't have any workshops today," he grinned. "My day is free and clear. Have we met yet?"

(*kicks lj*)

"Oh, very nice." Adam grinned back. "I think I'm slightly jealous, thought I really shouldn't be complaining." He shook his head in amusement. "I don't believe we have. I'm Adam." Adam extended his hand in greeting.

[It's being very pissy today.]

He shook his hand, "Johnny Storm, pleasure to meet you Adam. Are you here just for the summer session or you planning on staying on for the fall?"

[im-afrog.livejournal.com]

"Nice to meet you too, Johnny." Adam meant it. "I'm staying for the fall. Trying my hand at junior year here." He smiled. "What about you?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Same. I'm a junior as well." He smiled and took a sip of his coffee. "How are you liking Fandom so far? Anything...weird happen to you yet?"

[im-afrog.livejournal.com]

"Cool." Adam was glad to have met someone from his class. "I'm glad I decided to come here. Nothing, so far. But I'm counting the days until it does. It's only a matter of time." He chuckled. "You?"

Caffeine and Eve were damn near best friends, which explained why she was in the Perk with the largest possible cup of coffee she could buy. She stepped away from the counter with it and looked around for somewhere to sit.

Johnny looked over, brows raised. Savannah? Eve? God, please don't let it be Eve. He slouched and hunkered down in his chair, just in case. And maybe, just maybe, if it was Eve, Savannah hadn't really said anything to her yet...about the other day. If he was lucky.

Please let him be lucky.

Unfortunately for him, it was Eve. God must've been out on a cigarette break when that prayer was offered.

"Johnny, hey," Eve said, an ever so slightly cool tone to her voice. But she was playing nice, for now. Really. She was. This was her, playing nice.

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

And that ever so slightly cool tone let him know it was Eve. Johnny was astute like that. Yes.

"Hey, Eve," he said low. "How's it going?"

[blackmagic-eve.livejournal.com]

"Eh, not bad for a day where I don't have any workshops." She held up her giant mug o' coffee. "Even so, can't start the day off right without more caffeine than is possibly good for me." She gave him a grin then -- because while she didn't much like him, she didn't really have a reason to be rude. (She obviously didn't know full details of that whole shirt thing.)

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Oh, you neither eh? Cool. I'm workshop free myself today," he smiled, going for calm and cool. And her grin made this much much easier. Johnny relaxed and held up his own mug, "Working on a cup myself..."

[blackmagic-eve.livejournal.com]

"So what all are you doing today?" Eve asked, taking a seat across from him. "Or is it an exciting day of people watching?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

He smirked, "People watching to begin with. After a couple more cups of coffee, I'll think about thinking about what I'm going to do today." Possibly hide from a certain person too...

"What are your plans for the day? Besides watching me?" Yes. Little humor there. Okay, very little.

Jaina came in just to grab something quick for breakfast, giving Johnny a wave after she ordered. "Feeling better?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Jaina," he said, returning her wave with a nod of his head. "Yeah, much better." He...didn't want to go there. Really.

[solo_sword]

"Good," she said. "So aside from that, how have you been?" Because she hadn't had much of an opportunity to just say hey so far.

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Aside from that I can't complain a bit," he said, smiling slightly. "Workshops are going good, and I got myself a job at the Photo Hut, working Wednesday's. Not bad at all. How about yourself? Things been going all right?"

[solo_sword]

"Good," she said, smiling back. "I started training again and I kind of never want to leave my cabin. If I could break the high score in Flight and Flying, I'd say things would even be great."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

He cocked his head, "Training makes you want to not leave your cabin? I'm going to break the high score," he said with cocky confidence, cause that was just Johnny, but he softened it with a grin. "Really."

[solo_sword]

"You think so?" she countered, still smiling a little. "You know the high score is just short of ridiculous, right?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he knew it. But it was there, in his face, every Friday. How could he not try to break it? He grinned, "It was set though, and if it was set, certainly it can be broken."

Jaina ignored his previous question and he hadn't missed that, "Why don't you want to leave your cabin?"
