kind of apathy club, a pretty cool classroom, hanging out with peeps, you know, whatever

[onapalebicycle.livejournal.com]

George was in way too good a mood today to bother trying for cranky. She hadn't seen the e-mail from Portalocity, and it kind of wouldn't affect her anyway if she had.

So she was going for a cheerful sort of apathetic. Like the sort of staring at a wall that was because you felt like it and not because you hated everything, ever. Because sometimes you could be apathetic and content. At least that was what George was going to say. Shut up.

"Not everything sucks," she decided. "I'm just saying."

Hell was decidedly chilly today.

Or ... talk to people. If you want. Just don't be fucking annoying about it or anything, okay?

Jeremy was feeling pretty good too, honestly. But then that wasn't much of a change, except maybe from last week. But then, he hadn't even shown up last week.

But, yes. He just looked relaxed.

Squall moved to a chair near Jeremy, and nodded at him. "Hey."

"Hey, dude," Jeremy replied with a little nod. "Good apathy?"

Or whatever it was that you were meant to say in a situation like this.

Squall shrugged. "Whatever."

He looked over at George, and gestured to her. "So... Congratulations. Or thanks. Or whatever." He frowned, not sure what he was actually trying to say. "I mean... I don't know. If you hurt her, I'll hurt you."

"Uh." Well, that had been unexpected. Even though Jeremy had gotten similar words from other people before, and was vaguely aware Squall and George were friends, or something.

He hesitated for a second, then said, "I'm... not intending to hurt her?"

Really, this was just supposed to have been a "thank you for making her happy", and Squall wasn't sure why he'd sidetracked it onto this note. It was easier for him to handle, though.

"Good," he replied darkly. "Don't."

And Jeremy was more used to being intimidated than he was to being thanked for making anyone happy. He was also easily intimidated in general.

So, he shook his head rather quickly. "I won't. I like her. A lot."

Not that that had stopped him from messing things up before.
