Library, [01/02]

Jono had better things to do today than take in some bloody picnic. Like chill out with the books. Jonothon liked the books, damn it. The only chewing that he was expected to do on them was only in the most figurative sense, and he wasn't expected to do any socializing or speaking to them, and--

Had Jonothon ever mentioned how much he had always wished for this sort of excuse to avoid the hell out of the Welcome Picnic?

This was because Jono was an antisocial plonker.

"Training goes well," she said, with a faint smile. "It will continue to do so."

Jono nodded a little. That, at least, was something.

//If there's anything that I can do, luv...? I mean, I'm no great fighter or anything, but I can hold my own, generally.//

He didn't have a glass jaw, at least.

"I cannot think of anything at the moment," Rosalind said, almost gently. "It is years in the future and I have very few details."

It was hard to plan that way.

Years was... something. It was better than the 'maybe tomorrow' that was the best that Didi had ever been able to manage.

He winced all the same, though he tried to hide it.

You know. By looking the other direction and being very interested in a nearby book. That was absolutely believable, there.

//Well, if anything comes up at all...//

"I'll tell you," she said patiently.

And looking his way.

"It's not something that must happen."

Rosalind wouldn't believe that.

//No,// Jono agreed. //With the amount of variations on th'way my own universe turned out, I'm not a fan of thinking that anything is set in stone, myself.//

Still.

//A little unsettling all th'same,// he added.

"Moreso, it seems, for others than for myself," Rosalind still sounded a bit... bewildered about that.
furnaceface: (Casual conversation)

//We care,// Jono replied, shrugging. //Can't help it. You mean something to us, luv.//

"Well," she said, "I'll not dispute that."

Though she still didn't get it, and her tone conveyed that.
