[open thread] Bobby's doing what Bobby does best

[never-too-cold.livejournal.com]

Okay, I have been SUPER BORED at work recently because there's very little for me to do right now. So I thought it would be a good opportunity to tip-toe back into our awesomeness! I literally cannot remember almost all of our recent/upcoming plot developments, so let's just... keep this chilled (PUN TOTALLY INTENDED)!

Characters: Bobby, YOU!
Setting: Kitchen
Content: Bobby consumes ice cream and talks to you. (CRYSTAL, WHERE IS LAURA, I WANT SOME B/L ADORABLE AWKWARDNESS)
Status: PROBABLY RUSTY.

[It's been a difficult couple of weeks. The mood in the mansion is low due to Kevin's absence. Bobby's worried, and he hasn't been able to get any more information from Logan or Emma (apparently there's not enough to divulge, anyway); he's been swamped with classes and tutoring work and training; he hasn't been able to spend much time with (his girlfriend? That's a whole other issue) Laura; and he still doesn't know how to deal with John.

So Bobby's sitting in the kitchen with his one fail-proof cheer-up method: a huge tub of ice cream.]

[Laura's life is fairing more or less the same despite Kevin's disappearance. She feels the worry of the others, feels herself missing Kevin's absence although they have only shared a few moments. But he is gone; she knows this. She had followed his trail and came up empty.

And Laura knows more than anyone about needing to leave. They are both dealers of death; they both walk in a world no one else here can touch. A dark, lonely place that can consume you.

She knows what its like to be consumed by that place. She is resigned at Kevin's absence, but she hopes he comes back.

Her studies, her friendships with Kitty and Josh, her training - everything is fine. Nearly better than fine. She is not peaceful and Laura doubts she ever will be, but she is grateful. Her life is almost normal. And she has Bobby.

She hears him in the kitchen as she passing nearby and takes a detour to see him. It's curious, how she used to avoid him. Now she's sometimes seeking him out, chasing that painful and exciting fluttering in her gut. Despite a few kisses and gentle touches, they have not done much, haven't gone out often. He is busy, but Laura is fine with this. This is no pressure. It is slow, undefined. She likes that.

She turns into the kitchen, spotting him with his usual tub of ice cream.]

Hi.

[John still doesn't know how to deal with Bobby either. He hasn't exactly been tackling his chances to do it considering he hates the fucking prick. When he strolls into the kitchen looking for food he barely pauses at the sight of Bobby; he's long passed being startled by the Iceman's presence or anyone's presence for that matter. (Although Bobby does get a passing "Oh. Look who's eating ice cream. Big fucking surprise" sort of look.)

He scoffs softly and opens the fridge, looking for leftover pizza.]

[Nothing's changed about Jono's appetite, actually. He plops down next to Bobby with his own packet of chips -- crisps, as Jono still insists on calling them -- and starts munching.]
