[Open]

Who: Jolyne and open (closed prompt for Jonathan)
When: Sometime in November, idk
Where: Various places. Some empty room, the quad, etc.
What: Hamon training! More stupid dancing garbage! Training! Really bad memories time!
Warnings: Jolyne is Jolyne, as always. CW: drugs on the D prompt.

A. Dancing

As per usual, Jolyne can be found pretty easily outside practicing her ridiculous dance moves. Anyone who has been paying attention is probably more than familiar with her nonsense at this point. The song and dance for the day is kind of a little raunchy in lyrics but less so in the moves. A weirder one for her, certainly, and not as bombastic and loud as her stuff normally is.

As usual, she can be grabbed after she's done and taking a water break. With Stone Free, as usual, chilling out not too far away.

B. Training

Jolyne is the easiest to always find in the Legionnaire Quarters, as always punching the absolute hell out of a punching bag, swimming in the pool despite the weather outside, or jogging.

However, this time she's also seen... lifting weights? Weird and new, but why not. It seems her weights range from smaller weights up to something that would almost never be seen on someone with her body type. She doesn't seem to be having a whole lot of issues with this whole thing, especially since those who are paying attention my notice the strings wrapped around her wrists and on the weights themselves.

What the hell is she even doing?

C. Garage

Mechanics club was kind of a come or go sort of thing, Jolyne not particularly caring if someone really wanted to get involved or not. It was a formality to keep up with the whole list of those in the club proper, since she'd only really done the club in the first place to get access to parts she wouldn't noramlly get a hold of. But she's pretty easily found in there, working on her bike that... at least has a basic skeleton going on for it.

In fact, she's found in clothing that isn't her normal. Instead it seems to be a white (or formally white, now stained with oil and the like) shirt that's rolled up to her elbows and a pair of jeans that are just as covered. And goddamned black boots. Her hair is out of its usual style and instead tied back in a simple ponytail.

Anyone that bothers to check on her will find her hard at work and focused on getting the engine on this thing fine tuned. Or maybe it's better to not interrupt her while she seems something other than irritated at the world.

D. Greenhouse, potential CW: drugs

It hadn't been her idea to plant these, not in the slightest, but she'd... kind of inherited this particularly hidden little plot. A small crop of marijuana and mushrooms. She didn't know shit about how mushrooms worked, so she'd sort of let them go a bit with the least heavy hand possible while instead working on the crop she was far more familiar with.

Despite the falling out, despite the way things went, she at least was going to try and keep something alive that she was left with. And, despite everything, she actually was doing a fairly good job at keeping them alive and somehow not being found out.

She wasn't using it, of course not, but it was something to do and see how everything turned out.

Though anyone passing by might hear some music playing in the background. Certainly not something to be growing plants to, right?

E. Hamon training (closed to Jonathan)

This was stupid, the whole idea was absolutely stupid. But her great x3 grandfather had promised to teach her this whole... hamon or whatever thing. And she'd been debating on going through with it or not, she didn't mind learning something new, necessarily. But if she learned this, wouldn't this make her more of a target for them to keep her around? Ugh.

Ultimately she's determined that she might as well see how this goes, if it's utter bullshit then she can leave. It's not like a bat can stop her, anyway. She's even been nice enough to keep Stone Free unsummoned for the time being.

But she's prompt and on time, if nothing else, slipping into this empty classroom and frowning as she leans against the now closed door.

"This better be worth my time, I could be doing literally anything else."

[He's expecting a fight, gearing up for one especially after that bump, so much so that when she gives him the opposite, it feels like it hits him harder than any punch would have. He's still pissed, but it's more of a confused anger scrambling to catch back up. Since he's lost his footing in the argument already, he hurriedly steps after her. He'll...take care of the pot later.]

Hey! What the fuck are you talking about? You think you're gonna find that by taking care of some shit he never fucking should have had in the first place?

[wait, no, he doesn't mean to keep berating her, why is this happening...why can't he just sound encouraging like a normal friend!!!]

This isn't helping anyone, not when that fucker wasn't helping himself with it -- [ha ha] All this is, is -- you're not fucking moving on! How are you supposed to realize your worth if you won't even look at who you fucking are now?

[He's too startled to keep following her after that. In too much disbelief, both from her words and from his overwhelming need to shoot down everything she said, however she felt be damned. The instinct to steamroller over this conversation is too strong right now, and she...didn't deserve that. She deserve a hell of a lot more, even if she couldn't realize it.

So it's some time before Maverick works up the nerve to confront her again. He's disposed of the pink plant in the greenhouse, of course, because we can't have nice things even if he feels bad about the mood he'd put her in, and in the end he doesn't even stick around to see her. Going the dodgy delivery route, like she had for his birthday gifts, although it's a bit harder for a dorm. He had to bribe the bullshit RA with sugary bullshit coffee delivery to get him to make sure it would get where it was needed. What a fucker, that guy.

Anyway. Jolyne will be presented with a medium-small terra cotta pot filled with dirt and the barest hint of a plant, a single, cut stalk of gladiolus, and a folded up note.]


Gladioli are too fucking big to grow indoors so I had to settle for something smaller instead. Like the message of forget-me-nots, too, so it fucking works out I guess. You get both.
I didn't mean to be just another person to go through or to be such a dickhead. You were there for me and then I didn't do the same for you so I kind of fucking deserve an asskicking if you want to give one.
Atropos is still open to you the 28th if you feel like coming.
