Welcome to Gaia! ::

Harrison's gaze remained starry.

"Books?" he asked, looking down.

"Uh. Maybe. Nn, no, I feel..." Harrison shook his head, "real weird. Like I said earlier. Kind of stupid."

But no matter what-

No, that was going in circles again.

Harrison smiled, taking Rep's hand and putting it to his cheek. He held it there. Rep's hands were warm. "I dunno. Maybe I'm stupid every day."

Jerry had, in the midst of heated and hushed argument awash in grudges-of-yore, become entranced by his own pectorals. He had always dreamed... but no matter how many weights he attempted to lift, jogging and sit ups, the best he could have done was wirey. But this...

By the time the sparkly flexes stopped, he realized the party had moved along.

His brain re-registered an important fact to their situation.

He swept a few steps to where Robert, Petra and Jeremy had turned to speak, and took a moment before he managed to see through the aquantence's intense gaze... "NAME BUDDY! Hi!" At least he seemed in a better mood than the last time Jeremy and Jerry had spent much time together.

At least the Leon thing seemed to have sorted himself out. He glanced back to Petra. If Madison was in any trouble of virtue-rending, it probably wouldn't be that afternoon. "And Petra! You're looking-" He had intended to say 'well,' considering the last time he had seen her had been in a hospital bed, but what came out after a quick glance accidentally downward was, "Male." His shining, flawless cheeks were crimson, light glinting off his glasses along with the intense line of sweatdrops.

Jordan wasn't quite sure what to make of the whole thing. One one hand, it was just another day of weird s**t, and there was a kind of symmetry in that apparently everyone had turned male this time. On the other ... he felt oddly prone to brooding and unusually aggressive. There were a whole lot of very attractive guys here, and mostly he felt like challenging them.

He edged over toward his guys, trying not to look too hard at anyone.

... were those sparkles?

The concentration was enough to once again jar Rep out of his sparkling distant little mental wonderland. He looked slightly perplexed at the mention of a keyboard, still not entirely focusing. "Y..yes?" he stammered.

Tracey added exasperated.

His consideration of this was put off by the arrival of Jordan, rather than eager greeting as normal, Rep's sparkles vanished and he gave him a half lidded look, not letting go of Harrison. For some inexplicable reason, he felt like being aloof and cold was the way to go here.

Rep met the look with one of his own, and for just a second a strange dotted line flickered in the air between them.

your fiancée >

He knew but for some reason right this second that didn't actually factor in, all that factored was that there was someone trying to be more aloof and irritable than him. He looked away with a grim expression as if all the weight of the world was on his shoulders.

"Can I help you?" he said, without looking at him.

Melvin jerked back at the sharp glare he got for no damn reason, and then watching as both Jordan and Rep addressed each other with a cold attitude. Trouble back home? He had no idea, but watching these three was seriously making him feel ill. Maybe it was the fact that they all looked like model material that made the triple couple a bit more sickeningly sweet than normal, but it really needed to stop.

Melvin dusted some flower petals off his hair that seemed to be everywhere. Was it spring already?

Rep blushed deeply and crossed his arms, looking away again as Harrison skipped to Jordan, muttering flustered. " Don't misunderstand. It's not like I liked you or anything anyway."
