"It was a shitty thing to do," Rory agrees solemnly. "I'm glad I have an ally such as Jake," she says, throwing an arm around his shoulders.

[mycanonhatesme]

Chloe just looks at Jake for a few moments. She knows there's more to this than a desire to play backup for Rory - she does remember how Jake was right before Homecoming. But if this how Jake wants to play it, then she's not going to argue - at least, not in front of Rory.

"I guess you're right. That was really shitty. I knew there was a good guy deep down in there somewhere," she says, smiling.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

That is one suspicious smile, but Jake decides to take his reprieves when he can and smiles back, a little uncertainly, before turning his head towards Rory and grinning brightly. "I'm here for you, man. Logan must pay.

Now... how do you feel about poetic justice?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Poetic justice?" Rory asks, arching a brow. "Do go on."

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

"Well, obviously, you got to show him that he can't treat you like that," Jake says reasonably. Or me, he added in his head. "So..."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Hmm. So, what are you proposing I do? Because the only thing I'm coming up with here is something you probably wouldn't be able to help with," Rory replies, blushing.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake arched an eyebrow at the blush. "...Don't bet on that." He eyed her for a moment, then grinned. His features blurred for a moment, and when they solified again, the girl version of him was grinning up at Rory.

"Was this what you had in mind?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Don't get stuck," Rory replies immediately. "I was thinking of how unfortunate it would be if you or I were dared to kiss the other in front of those two. Because that would just suck wouldn't it? But we'd be forced to do it - rules of the game, y'know."

She doesn't add that she had initially thought of witholding sex, which Jake, girl or no, could certainly not help with.

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake nodded solemnly, switching back quickly just to make sure he wouldn't stick. "Oh it would. But, you know. What could we do?" He grinned. "Have to follow the rules, after all. Like they -- he did. Bet finding someone to dare us wouldn't be that hard," he added thoughtfully, looking around the classroom.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Shouldn't be hard at all," Rory says, staring pointedly at Chloe.

((ooc: Chloe player is offline. Stare at someone else. *g*))

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

[ooc: Boo! Rory is now staring at Beka, who I believe is online.]

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

(ooc: *g!*)

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

(ooc: Dare you when? *g*)

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

(ooc: Dunno yet. *grins*)

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

(OOC: told Rory-mun, someone needs to say it loud enough to bring Beka up to speed. She tuned out to work and talk to Phoebe when she and Rory stopped talking. Also, that way it'll be clear that you guys were asking her to do it.)

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Yup," Rory practically shouts across the room to Beka, "Sure would be bad if someone were to DARE US TO KISS IN FRONT OF KRYCEK AND LOGAN, huh Beka?"

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake nodded in agreement, attempting to look like that would pain him horribly.

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

Beka looks up startled from her laptop where she's been working on an assignment for class. "What?" She blinks. "Dare you to kiss in front of Krycek and Logan? Sure, why not?"

[mycanonhatesme]

[OOC: *pops in for five seconds*]

Chloe looks back and forth between Jake and Rory and just shakes her head. "I want it stated for the record that I had nothing to do with this maniacal little plan."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Maniacal?" Rory asks innocently. She turns back to Beka and Jake. "And who's dared to kiss who? And when? Has to be somewhere where they'd both be..." Rory says thoughtfully, tapping her pencil against her nose.

"If you can somehow convince Krycek to come to the yearbook meeting with you tonight, Jake," she says practically, "that might work. 'Course, there's no reason why you'd be there..."

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

"I won't be there either. Any way we can get everyone to Spike's tonight or something? It'll be more plausible if there's at least some alcohol involved," Beka offers, ever pragmatic.

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

"S'ok. I'm known for maniacal." She grins. "Besides, you've got the whole taking over the world thing on your shoulders."

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake considered it, then shook his head. "Can't manage it today. ...Tomorrow perhaps?"

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

Beka taps on her Flexis, then pulls up her schedule. "I've got to meet the Dean in the evening. Don't know when, but I'm sure I'll need a drink after that."
