Open Log
Characters: Dave, hopefully Ven, and anyone else who happens to wander by
Setting: Dave's dorm, room 1-14
Format: Starting action
Summary: Dave is feeling a lot of things right now, guys. He decided to chill in bed today.
Warnings: Dave swears like a sailor
[Dave is lying in bed with his hands propped behind his head, staring up at the poster's he'd hung on the ceiling, occasionally glancing at the ones he'd hung on the wall. His chest is heavy and his mind is racing.
His brother was alive. You'd think that would make him happy. But no, he felt crappier than ever, including when he'd found him dead, stabbed by Jack Noir. And he really didn't know why. It was frustrating. It was making him mad, worried, stressed, upset.
He kept an emotionless face as he let out a soft sigh, shifting his shades on his face. He didn't really want to talk to anyone right now, and he doubted anyone would really come looking for him. He was free to linger in his thoughts.
His only worries were about the leash. Then again he didn't know Ven very well. Why should Ven even care?]

no subject
Think I'm gonna chill here instead. You can go without me if you want.
[He feels even worse, he doesn't mean to be worrying her.]
no subject
[ She wipes at an eye with a bandaged hand, but doesn't go anywhere. ]
Are you okay?
no subject
Why do you ask?
[Does he really seem that bad, maybe he should go for a swim or something else dangerous to prove he's perfectly alright.
Not that he is perfectly alright, but that wouldn't stop him from trying to prove it.]
no subject
[ Jade finally braves up and steps in the room properly, standing a few feet from his bed. She looks just a tad nervous. ]
no subject
Nah, everything's cool. Did you need something?
[So cool, Strider, so smooth.]
no subject
If you want me to leave, then I will....
no subject
I didn't say that, I was wondering if you needed anything. If you just came to say hi...
[... Does he want her to leave? ... He glances over at his trunk at the foot of his bed.]
Here... [Dave pulls out a couple of apple juices from inside, oferring her one and keeping the other.] Stay.
no subject
No, I always come to see if you're around...
[ She takes the apple juice with something like awe. He's really giving this to her? Carefully, as if she'll break something, she sits down next to him on the bed and unscrews the top with precision. ]
Thanks, Dave.
no subject
Been saving these since I got here, they're at least something other than apple pie and ice cream.
[He pauses for a moment.] Always coming to see me? Oh you're probably looking for the SB&HJifier aren't you. We should use that thing sometime shouldn't we?
no subject
There's been a ton of ice cream lately...
[ She shakes her head. ] No, I just... [ ... ] It's silly. Never mind.
no subject
[He glances over at her, tilting his head.]
What? I doubt it's silly. Well, you're Jade, silly is your thing, sure. But who cares? [He feels like he should smirk, but he can't quite pull up the corners of his mouth.]
no subject
[ She smiles, looking down at the apple juice. ]
I just come around to see if you want to hang out...usually you're gone though. I probably just come at all the wrong times.
no subject
[He is drinking this apple juice like nobody's business, finding apple juice was like finding Christmas presents under the Christmas tree.
That is, to him, both rarely happened. And both were joyous occasions.
Hm. I'm trying to set up a mission to get us back out of this place and back home right now. I'd rather not be stuck in this tower for the rest of my life, 'specially if all of space and time's counting on us to make sure Jack Noir doesn't tear it to pieces. Took on a job as window washer for the tower, been training so far. You might find me outside if you go to floor four, relatively safe room that's just windows everywhere.
no subject
[ Carefully...sipping...oh my god it's so good! 0u0 ]
I don't...want to go home. [ ... ] But if it will make you happy, then I want you to succeed.
no subject
[He furrows a brow at her. Oh right... he almost forgot...]
.... You could come with us, if you'd like. But... you probably wouldn't be too happy if you came. We're in the middle of some really dangerous plans... [He leaves out the fact that he's going to go on a suicide mission back in their world.]
no subject
[ She smiles, a little hesitant. ]
I'd like that a lot. Being with you is a lot better than being all by myself.
no subject
[He grips his apple juice a bit tightly, thinking it over. He'll... leave out the fact that he and Rose were entangled in suicide mission shenanigans for now. Burn that bridge when they cross it.]
Yeah, you can come with us. The other Jade should be there too, but multiples isn't really a big deal. I mean dreamselves are already multiples, aren't they? Plus we got Davesprite and also Jadesprite, so yup. Should be totally cool.
no subject
[ She hesitates, and then leans against his shoulder. ]
Other-- [ Oh that's right. She's not the only Jade any more. Sometimes it's hard to remember that, the tiny things that make her different. ] Who is Jadesprite...?
no subject
[Dave sort of freezes up when she leans on him, but doesn't really object. He's kind of too emotionally burnt out right now for the gesture to really register with him.]
Well, our Jade, the alpha Jade, prototyped her Kernelsprite with her dreamself. Like how I prototyped mine with your Dave and that's how we got Davesprite. So, we got a Jadesprite too.
no subject
...Jade's not sure if she likes that term very much. Insinuating that she's not her own Jade, she's someone else's subservient. But a frown is all she gives to indicate that. ]
Why my dreamself?
no subject
Alpha's not a good or bad thing... it just means she's from the timeline without any time paradoxes, just for clarity. Like I'm Alpha Dave, doesn't make me any better than any other Dave.
[He takes a deep breath.]
Your dog prototyped himself in the Kernelsprite and made Jack Noir, our "final boss", completely invincible. She couldn't communicate with Bec so she decided it'd be a good idea to prototype the Kernelsprite with her dreamself so she could communicate with it and ask it to fight Jack. That plan pretty much didn't work at all.
no subject
Someone's still the beta though...that's the alphabet...
[ After a moment, she speaks up. ]
Do you think Bec would show up here if I asked for him?
no subject
I think they could get Bec here if they really wanted to, considering all these people are here from all over different universes and timelines. Also Rose has her mutant pet cat or something, pretty sure they could get your mutant pet dog here. Not that they will... I guess it wouldn't hurt to ask though?
