Photo Hut, Wednesday, 3/19

Johnny was at work, in an excellent mood. That's why he wasn't really working, didn't want to ruin it.

Instead he was sitting behind the counter, checking out the current motocross magazine. 

Photo Hut is open.

Today, his first visitor was a snarky blonde archer, who didn't try to be snarky and confusing. It was just her natural state of being.

"Did you get her back?"

Because she never listens to the radio.

Johnny glanced up from his magazine. Ooooh, hot, blonde, and fierce.

He wasn't going to pretend he didn't know what she was talking about. "Yes, I did. You a friend of hers?"

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"Of her mother. Eve is my best friend. There was concern."

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Ah, well, she's good. I'm keeping her close... " he smiled and thought better of mentioning just how close. "You should check on her; she might appreciate it."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"There is no anger, then?"

Because she knew from listening to others about people getting taken and then returned, that there was some anger.

Johnny cocked his head. "I don't think so, no. Not on my part at least, and I can pretty much speak for Savannah - she's not angry either."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn thought about this for a long moment.

"This is good. This means there will not be a broken Savannah and an Eve in a rage. At home when there are disappearances and then we come back, there is sometimes anger and yelling about us being gone and taking risks. It is hard for some to feel like they belong again."

She shrugged. Then again, when your father was Robin and one of you "protectors" was King Phillip, you got used to the yelling.

"I did yell at her," he said honestly, then shrugged. "But I got over it. She's here now and that's what is important." He smirked. "I can deal with Eve."

Johnny and his hot head.

Gwynn gazed at him thoughtfully. "You yelled because you had been worried and afraid for her, yes?"

It was obvious that Gwynn was trying to understand something, and lucky Johnny got to help her with this.

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"That's the only reason. And because she went off foolhardy without me..." he mumbled the last, glancing down at his magazine with a twist of his lips.

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"Well, why don't you teach her to fight and protect herself and then you won't have to worry about her as much?"

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

Johnny grinned. "Savannah knows how to fight, and to protect herself. And it doesn't matter, I will always worry about her."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"Why?" Gwynn said, leaning on the counter and trying to make sense of this. "If she can protect herself, why would you worry so much when she is away from you -- or is this a new attitude because she told you she lived in Cairo for nine months and worked as a dancing girl -- and where is Cairo, anyway, and how was she there for nine months if Eve only found out she was missing on Friday?"

Poor Johnny. Gwynn had decided he was going to explain things to her... and this could take time since she might be getting some of her information mixed up. She had heard a great deal of things, after all.

Savannah showed up with Johnny's coffee a little later than usual. It might have been because she had slept in due to having had a very late night. She saw him in conversation with her mom's friend, so she hung back, looking over some of the cameras.


[[OOC: Why yes. I am bored and possibly insane.]]

Johnny winked at her when he saw her. He was thinking about taking her to one of the back rooms after Gwynn left.

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

Savannah gave him a slow smile. She would never have a problem with that. Hi, she mouthed as he was talking to Gwynn.

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

Hi, he mouthed back and then added, love you.

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

Savannah's face filled with happiness. I love you, too.

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

Want you...

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

Savannah shivered and her eyes darkened as she looked at him. There was no mistaking what that look meant.

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

No. None at all. Johnny shifted, scratched his neck, and wondered when Gwynn was going to quit talking. Honestly, he didn't know a girl could talk so much. Well, save for his sister. Anyway...

He glanced at Savannah again and quirked a brow before his eyes deliberately settled on her chest.

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

Savannah looked around the store and then gave Johnny a very wicked look.

When she was sure that Gwynn had her back to her, she flashed him...

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

Oh holy shit! He bust out laughing and managed to make it sound like a cough to cover his surprise. His girlfriend was totally wicked and god, she was going to get it later.

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

The look Savannah gave him was the picture of innocence... if you didn't notice the sparkle in her eyes.

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

He noticed the sparkle in her eyes. Definitely.

He almost might have dared her to flash him again with a slight raising of his brows and a quick mouthed please? when Gywnn wasn't looking.
