[The clothes have been meticulously folded and stacked at the bottom end of the bed because, for some wild reason, Jason is clean and not messy. But they are still there, noticeable.]
Oh. Forgot to mention she's almost naked. [He doesn't yell or anything but he doesn't bother whispering.] Made the mistake of telling her to take what she wanted off so she could go to bed. Didn't think it'd be everything.
[she grumbles when jason speaks, opening one eye to peek at him from her blankets. a pause, as she squints at cloud, too. actually, she seems like, surprised to see cloud, maybe?
and then she just yawns widely and holds out a grabby hand like either of them are going to indulge her in cuddles like this.]
G'morning. [she says sleepily. silence, you were asleep for like five minutes.]
[ cloud is not moving in for cuddles. he is not a fool. also jason's single bachelor bed would be TERRIBLE for it. this man lives like this. ]
How long has she been here? [ that she thinks it's fucking morning. he is judging. ] She's got the biggest bed in the entire hotel and she's stealing yours?
[The good morning makes him look tired briefly. Cloud won't go, so now he is thrown to the sharks because he is the one holding the water. He reluctantly goes, not for cuddles, but unfortunately will probably get grabbed anyway.]
Got conned into carrying her. [This should explain things? Maybe?] Are you thirsty? Here. [Offering the water from vending which Lup may or may not even take because he's too close.]
Cloud came to check on you because he's stupid and cares.
[she makes a rumbling sound and sits up. she's wearing a bra so like, she doesn't flash them at least, but it is pretty clear she doesn't give a single rat's ass about being mostly naked. like, they've seen this in trial, she's not concerned, and also she is from a fuck game.
jason is safe from being grabbed for now. For Now.
anyway. she takes the water, and immediately chokes on it when jason tells her that. her ears go pink.]
[Lup truly has to put up with these two together now.]
Not the bed... [HIS BED. DON'T WET IT.] ...You good?
[He also... sort of just lets her get it out because what's he going to do?! He doesn't think patting her back will help. ALSO? She's in nothing but a bra; he doesn't wanna be weird. He hasn't looked directly at her again either, by the way. It's different when the girl is in a bra in YOUR BED.]
Yeah, but you showed up when I was just letting you know.
no, it's fine, she recovers fastly. she waves jason off when he asks if she's good. yes, she's fine, just choked on water for unrelated reasons. she's going to speak up, but then the other two stooges keep talking to each other and she just huffs.]
I am sitting... right here. [she says, ear flicking. she seems less drunk than she was earlier, just sleepy.]
[ he does not get to tell jason he thought he wanted her out before lup speaks out to interrupt the non-argument, and he looks over at her before looking away again.
he cannot make fun of jason for pointedly not looking he will also not look at girls in their underwear in a bed. ]
Yeah, because you got drunk enough to decide Jason's bed was a better option than literally anywhere else. [ this is still an insult to jason somehow ] Or because Jason was too stupid to drag you to your room, either's an option.
[He sticks his hand out at her to silently ask if she is finished with the water or not because he is going to put it out of the way. I guess he can have a nightstand even if I thought about being mean and not doing it.]
What the hell, my bed is fine. It’s a perfectly normal bed. It’s soft! You’re just too scared to try it and see.
[He does not bother trying to talk down the second option because it will take too long to explain he was set on coming to his own room when he got jumped.]
You’re going to have a worse hangover if you don’t go back to sleep.
[Too Lup. He actually looks at her but only in the face. Please, he’s fucking twenty, he is trying to keep his eyes up here and it’s hard.]
[ neither of you say it. but he shrugs a shoulder, moving like he is just going to go now that apparently his suite mate moving services aren't required and he is being shamed!! for niceties!! ]
Apparently he didn't want you gone. You might as well stay and lord it over him.
[NO. Don't ask it like that!!! He grits his teeth gently.] You can stay, I'll just-- [NO!!!] Hey, where the hell are you going? Why am I the Good Cop here? I'm supposed to be the Bad Cop. [DON'T LEAVE HIM BY HIMSELF. BRO.
He glances from Cloud to Lup.] Are you going with him? [Now he has to wait to see what she says, so there. She has the bigger bed? Listen, he is a man, and he is stupid, he doesn't know. Maybe she wants to leave.
As if Lup wouldn't force them to carry her and her shit back to her room just to look them dead in the eyes and say not to leave her alone, making them figure out whether they want to be mean or nice.]
a pause. her poor alcohol brain is really trying here. she reaches for the clothes at the end of her bed, and then:]
It'd, um. It'd be nice if both of you stayed. [she does like her bed better than jason's, but also, whether or not she gets to have two of her favorite people keep her company is more important than her bed status.]
[They're great at this. He absolutely just looks at Cloud like he expects all of this to hinge solely on Cloud for some reason. It does. His hand rubs the back of his neck at his hairline. Goddammit.]
I mean, it's a queen. It's not that small. [Three adults can sit on a queen bed, okay, even if one of them is a dorito. This is his way of conceding without admiting it and also washing his hands of being responsible.] If I can put up with Roy, I can deal with Cloud for a few hours. Maybe you can dump her back in her room after she's finally gone to sleep. [She is right there, but that's the point.
He swats his hand through the air at her in a back-back motion.] Get in the middle. [Imagine they put Cloud in the middle. "No one knows if Cloud is going to even stay." He's weak to Lup asks.]
her ear flicks happily when jason tsuns his way back over to the bed. she scoots appropriately, and then settles down back under the blankets. i'll be nice and say she got halfway through putting clothes on again so she's at the very least wearing a shirt.]
[ he's looking at them both in bed like this is some kind of trap where they are going to tell PUNKED, but he is also not like. leaving. just baffled. and wary.
Jason goes around to the other side, leaving Cloud with the edge that is closest to the door in case he gets so worked up he wants to bolt. See, he's nice?
He left to get water without shoes, so he doesn't have to take anything off. He does not get under the covers, shut up. He sits in a half slouch on top of them. BUT HE'S ON THE BED. Cloud only has the bed because Jason has dumped the gun holsters in the only desk chair here. Sucks.]
I'm not drunk, dammit. I just know she is drunk enough to probably cry if you don't do it, and then later bring it up as a reminder when you're arguing about something else entirely since she's a woman. You want that?
[ cloud has a vivid flashback to aerith cheerfully asking him for permission to kill when they visited misogyny town and he covers his mouth to hide a laugh when lup hits jason. but also like. outside of the woman part jason isn't wrong. lup would absolutely talk about how mean he is forever. so he is not going to comment either way on that one.
his soldier outfit got all fucked up by him dying in it (rude) and while he usually still carries the buster sword anyway he was not bringing it over three bedrooms down just to bring back lup. this is important because after the put-upon sigh when lup pouts at him all he has to do is kick off his boots to go sit on the other side of lup on the bed. a little stiffly.
look he is still shy he is just pretending this is a normal thing to do ]
...Fine. I'm pretty sure I'd be considered an accomplice when one of you snaps and chokes the other one to death if I left now.
[ it could happen. we are ignoring that cloud is the one who was murdered in this game so far ]
[It doesn't hurt at all, he barely feels it, but he says,] Ow! [anyway like it does since he's a brat. He rubs the spot brattily. Also, I am playing Jason, so unfortunately for Cloud, we will not be ignoring it.]
Says the guy who was the dead one?
[CLOUD IS GOING TO RAG HIM ABOUT BRINGING THIS UP AGAIN, BUT HE IS MAKING A POINT HERE THAT NEITHER HIM NOR LUP HAD TO WORRY ABOUT THIS.]
The only one who is snapping is probably Lup when she gets the headache that's coming from drinking too much at a party.
[lup like yes, i would bring up how mean you were in the future but it's not because i'm a woman it's because i'm a brat]
Quit it! No dying. It is Wednesday!
[she huffs. also, she punches cloud in the leg for good measure. he didn't even do anything! it's fine, because she pats him after she does it like that makes it better, and then holds onto his clothes to stop him from running away.]
If you killed me I'd haunt you forever. [she grumbles at jason, settling down. despite all of her fake temper, it's pretty clear that she relaxes significantly once both of them are there. her shoulders go loose, and while she's not really in the proper position to hold onto jason too without it being supremely uncomfortable, she does press back against him, claiming her spot.]
[ it also didn't hurt cloud, but he's not even being a brat he's being offended he was punched. he didn't do anything!! and then jason makes fun of him for dying!!! it's illegal. he can't even leave because lup grabs onto him. he leans back with an annoyed sigh that is mostly real, because how did he end up in this position? how. why. he is never doing anything with either of these two again. ]
You can't say "no dying" and then say you'll haunt Jason in the same breath.
[He folds his hands and arms behind his head and wavers as Lup backs up on top of his side. It's fine. He'll be the ass man this time.]
I told you I was the Bad Cop. She's always mean to me like this, I'm used to it. I'd think she was a pod person if she wasn't. We just can't all have your innocent-looking baby face.
