Gale decided, after about two minutes, that Marcus wasn't really all that bad.
Robert, on the other hand, was an entirely different story.
Half standing, half leaning against the wall behind him, Gale slowly slid down it until he was sitting on the floor with his knees drawn up, his burning face in his hands as he shook his head.
How on earth did I even get into this.
Jinhai, meanwhile was having a bloody field day in his head, and Gale was trying - in vain - to shut him out.
<< I think if you were any redder you'd be an actual tomato. >>
Shut. Up.
Robert was reading aloud again, only this time Gale lifted his head, peering at him with a pained, horribly embarrassed expression on his pale face.
Then he wished he hadn't looked up, since he was now staring straight at the cover of the book - one that showed not a man and a woman, but two men. That, combined with Robert's rather...enthusiastic reading aloud, made Gale give a small groan of despair and sink lower into his horror. He would have left, were it not for the fact that he could not figure out a way to get out without alerting attention to himself, and he would have to climb over a good three or four people just to get to the door.
Which was made even more delightful when Ryan came walking in.
Gale now wished he could sink into the floor and disappear.

Jerry felt awful about the state things had been left in the dorms. He had had his part in the destruction, after all, and it was all he could do to help out. And so, bucket of Spackle in hand, he pushed his way along until he heard the sound of voices. "We having a cleaning par-" He trailed off as the words being spoken registered in his already battered brain.
Jerry dropped the bucket of Spackle, dribbling along the floor. "What... what...." He managed with a look of terror.

"Dramatic reading time," Jordan explained to Ryan and Jerry. "Wilson found a box of books."
Then he caught sight of the cover of the book Robert had picked up, and promptly turned bright red. "Uh. Robert - check the cover."

"WHAT SORT OF STORYTIME IS THIS THERE'S CHILDREN HERE!" Jerry squeaked, looking horrified as he grabbed Jordan's shoulder sharply.

Harrison was hauling a plastic bin full of glass and the remains of some reading lamps. What he had not expected to hear was a bunch of guys laughing and talking about footlongs, kisses, and what sure as hell wasn't a poetry recitation.
He nearly ran into Ryan, growling, "Watch it." He shrugged at Jerry's half question, but somebody else - s**t, he still didn't know his name, answered.
"Dramatic reading, huh? That on the new duty roster?"
He looked at Jerry like he'd gone bananas.
"What kids?"

Robert turned the book around when Jordan asked him to, but he didn't look down at the cover while doing it - instead, he gave Jerry a sardonic glare.
"Ain't no kids here, jackass. We're just a bunch of men risking our lives every day, so if we're not allowed to read dirty books then who the ********- OH SWEET JESUS-"
He'd finally seen the picture on the book, and threw it out of his hands as if it was scalding, so far across the room that it bounced off the wall and fluttered back to hit Marcus.

Well, if that wasn't just the awkward cherry on top of the two-scoop banana split awkward sundae. Jordan facepalmed and started laughing again. Sometimes, you just couldn't do anything else. Yep.

"Well... well... not CHILDREN but! But! But you know what I mean and that's awful how did you even GET that where did it even come from??" Jerry babbled frantically, with a spasmodic flail towards Gale.

Bix heard the words 'heaving' and 'thighs' and was drawn, as if by magnet, to the scene.
"Oh sweet!" While some of the guys blushed like schoolgirls, he decided to be the guy who wasn't embarrassed. He started to dig through the box with the rest of them.
"Afternoon Delight... Turkish Delight.. " He flipped through the titles. "There's a lot of Delight in here. You think it's a series?" Was he too interested in this?
"Oh s**t I call this one. Apollo 69. Theres a really phallic rocket on it." And a muscley space man ripping off the unitard of a green space woman.
"'Oh Captain!' she moaned as his hands slid the zipper down on her suit. 'Take me to your home planet!' Captain Rogers mouth hovered over the dip in her collar and whispered, 'Hop onto my rocket and we'll see how it goes.' OH MY GOD THATS REALLY A LINE IN HERE!" Bix started cracking up.

Dakota grabbed Ryan by the collar and hauled him back in before he could leave before looking at Jerry.
"Sometimes Jerry, The kids need to grow up. What better way into their manhood by...." Dakota's eyes widened as he busted up laughing, oh god, "Robert....bro....didn't know...Okay let me cover Ryan's ears okay. I don't think he can handle that..." He couldn't breathe between the laughter as he held Ryan in place, mock covering his ears.
"Sup Harrison!" Dakota waved to other moon Trainee before tossing him a book, "Wanna take a gander? Don't forget to read out loud, It seems to be a custom right now."

Gale paused in being horrified long enough to give Jerry a slightly indignant look that clearly said "I am not a child." Regardless of the fact that he was, in fact, acting like one, he was still sixteen and therefore not a child.
Then he went back to doing a fantastic rendition of being a tomato.

He held back a groan as more people began to come in and curiously pick up the books. Wilson stared at Gale, his mouth open in a silent “wut?!” The man tried to find a proper come back. “What—No! If you hadn’t been walking by when I threw it everything would’ve been fine.” There was so much damn regret as Robert waltzed in and dramatically read aloud one of the books. This time he really did groan, except he immediately stopped when the Life trainee picked up a second book and Wilson stared at the cover. Oh for the love of—
Wilson spotted Ryan. He walked over and immediately grabbed the boy by the arm as Dakota dragged him by the collar. “Ryan. Don’t leave me.” Obviously the poor man needed some sort of emotional support as he came to the horrifying realization that he had somehow opened some sort of box (literally) ala Pandora.
He joined Gale in tomato land.

Robert picked up a book and DEFINITELY LOOKED AT THE COVER FIRST, before flinging it at Gale.
"Here you go, kid. Don't listen to Jerry. Age ain't nothing but a number in this place, and you've got as long as the rest of us - might as well make the most of it."
Robert had flung Gale a book entitled "Tropical Heat."

It was in Marcus's face. For a second he just stood there. Silent. Ashamed. Embarrassed. Then he picked it up. Robert you started this.
Marcus would finish it. "He cupped my a** in his rough palms, his desire easily felt through my pants. "Oh Ferdinand, take me know you beast."-" Marcus was a bad reader, his voice deadpan. A blank look was given to Robert. "You really know how to pick them, don't you Robert?" The book was thrown back into the box with a glare.
It did not help that while he was reading Bix arrived. Still, Marcus was looking at Robert. "I am sure if you look you can find some girl on girl somewhere. If you do, please, do read for us." He was joking, but man... this was all levels of terrible, if slowly becoming amusing. Still, eyes moved to the 'child'. Gale was- "Gale." Marcus grinned. "Sure you don't want to know what will get her all hot and bothered."
Marcus had his cruel moments.

Bix heard 'Ferdinand' and joined tomato land.
And choked audibly. It lapsed into coughing and eye tearing.
