xp_logsWho: Manuel de la Rocha, Jubilation Lee
Where: Manuel's Room, the Kitchen
When: Wednesday-ish.
What Happens: Manuel gets naked briefly, they make popcorn, they watch film. They also flirt. Jubilee gets hormonal.
Jubilee knocked on Manuel's door, a pile of videos perched precariously under her left arm. She'd make popcorn and movie snackage after she got Manny to agree to watch the videos with her.
"Yo, Manny, you home?"
"Door's open!" he called out to Jubilee, leaving her to open the door for her. Why became apparent shortly, as he was towelling his hair dry and wearing nothing but a towel. "Sorry, was in the shower. C'mon in." he said.
Jubilee arched an eyebrow as she dumped the videos on the bed. Grinning suddenly, she put her hands on her hips and looked him up and down unashamedly.
"Nice...towel." she murmured.
She knew he was probably used to women throwing themselves at him, he had the attitude of someone who had never had to work at attracting the opposite sex. While she enjoyed flirting with him, she wasn't sure what to do next, she wasn't used to this and it confused her somewhat. Better to keep it on a friendly level till she could figure out just how she felt about things.
Manuel could feel Jubilee's interest and her underlying confusion, and decided in a moment of whimsy to just ignore it and see what she would do. He looked at his towel, then back at Jubilee. "It's not _that_ nice." he said with a smirk, then turned his back to her and dropped the towel entirely before reaching for a pair of slacks on the bed. "So, what's first?" he asked, not turning around as he put the slacks on.
Jubilee's eyebrows nearly met the top of her head in surprise as Manny dropped the towel. She said the first thing that came into her head. "Dude, you free bag?"
Manny didn't understand the term per se, but her feelings on the topic came through loud and clear. "Always." he said with a grin, and then once he got his pants on he turned around to face Jubilee with a smile. "Feel free to go get set up - I need to go find a shirt. Too cold to go without in here."
Jubilee nodded, her mind still trying to cope with the fact that Manny often went without underwear. The possibilities were endless.
'Stop that! Bad thoughts, bad! Friend, remember?' Jubilee thought, picking up the videos.
"Sure, I thought we'd start with some of Jackie Chan's movies, and then move on to some of the more popular 80's movies. Definitely have to watch Ghostbusters."
Manuel shrugged, not having any feelings of his own on the topic but seeing that she was interested. "Sure, sounds like a plan. Want something to drink?" he asked, buttoning up a simple blue silk shirt. "Fridge is yours to raid."
Jubilee grinned. "Definitely in the mood for Dr. Pepper right now. Anyway, you gotta help me make the popcorn before we can watch the movies though. It's traditional."
"Popcorn. Of course. It's traditional, isn't it? Did you bring any? I don't have any to hand. And I might have some soda in the fridge. Mostly bottled water in there right now." he said as he made himself comfortable in front of his TV.
Jubilee chuckled. "The popcorn is in the kitchen, waiting to be made. Come on, Mr Hermit, you can't spend all day in your room and it won't take all that long. I'm sure we can avoid anyone you'd rather not feel right now, most of them would be out in the sunshine anyhow."
Kitchen…
Jubilee tapped her fingernails against the countertop as she waited for the familiar sound of popping popcorn to start. She'd wanted to ask Manny something today, especially after the display with the towel. While Amanda wasn't her favourite person in the world, Jubilee wasn't the type of person that'd poach someone else's honey.
"Manny, like, what's the sitch between you and Amanda? I mean, you're flirtin' with me but last I knew, she was your girlfriend?"
Jubilee blushed, wanting to sink through the floor or find some other way to avoid the fact that Manny was probably going to be surprised she'd considering their flirting in any way serious. 'Good going, Jubes, just totally screw up a friendship by gettin' all hormonal on the guy'.
Manuel smiled charmingly. "She's my linkmate.” he said simply. "My emotions and hers touch, is about the best way I can put that. By necessity, we're close, but that's about all. There's no need to be embarrassed about it, really. It's a valid question. I don't interfere in her affairs, she doesn't interfere in mine."
Jubilee nodded, relieved more then she cared to admit right now. She didn't want any more trouble with Amanda then she already had but she also didn't want to stop being Manny's friend.
"Good. Hand me the butter? Gotta put melted butter on popcorn once most of the kernels are popped and then we can get the soda and head back to your room."
Manuel nodded. "You're running this show, you call the shots." He passed her the butter as she had requested and then studied her aura out of the corner of his eye. He then smiled. "I hope I'm not making you uncomfortable." he said, to probe out her reactions and feelings.
"I would be very surprised if you had ever dealt with someone like me before. I like to think I'm not a very ordinary person." he said with a smile. "And if you ever figure me out, I'll have to change. I like having a little mystery about me. Keeps things interesting, does it not?" he smirked, then took the bowl of popcorn from Jubilee. "You go get whatever you want to drink. Meet you back in my room?"
Jubilee laughed, her eyes twinkling. “I like, always did like a bit of mystery. See ya back up there.”
