Didi had gone to bed besotted with Raven, and woken up very much ... not.

Not that she had anything against Raven. She was a sweet girl and a good friend. But the whole thing tasted strange in her mouth, especially that she'd let Jono go. She wasn't letting herself think about the sting of that bit.

She spent the day hiding in bed. It wasn't like her, but she figured she'd pout in enough long days of work in her life that one under the covers wouldn't hurt anyone. She left the door closed.

[OOC: Door closed. Post open to anyone who may be looking for her -- or the roomie, if he's around.]

"You look awful," Jaime said as he came in the door. He might have noticed that before, too. Which might have explained the bag he was holding somewhat coyly behind his back.

"There's a reason I have to beat them off with a stick," Jaime agreed. He pulled the bag out and reached into it, retrieving a small box that smelled suspiciously like fresh-baked brownies.

The real secret to his charm.

"Got it in one." Jaime held out the box and sort of waved it in her direction. "You want?"

"Pretty good, actually." He let her take the whole box. (He had another one in the bag, after all.) "You wanna talk, or just chat and share some chocolatey baked goods?" He was good with either one, and he didn't want to intrude.

"Well, I'm a good ear if you want to talk, but... I don't know if you'd actually want to take any advice from me." He grinned. "I did get dumped by trans-Atlantic phone call, if you'll remember."

"It was just too awkward to do things long-distance," Jaime shrugged with more casualness than he really felt.

"And... that doesn't sound good," he added softly as he sat down on his bed. "But you only think you did?" That meant there was hope, right?

"Raven?" Jaime repeated. "But I thought..." He paused and shook his head. "I think I'm confused..."

weldedtomyspine: (uh oh?)

"We should get a banner or something." Jaime got the other box of brownies out of his bag and broke off a piece to munch absently.

"Whatever happened, though... you regret it?"

Jaime nodded slowly. "Yeah, I can see that."

Still... "What did he say when you told him that? I mean, maybe he doesn't want to go after anyone else?" It wasn't like Jaime hadn't noticed that his roommate was pretty awesome, after all.

"Well, that's not a definite rejection thing, right? That's good." Way to look on the bright side there, Jaime.

"And... it's probably not too late to tell him you changed your mind?"

Jaime just barely suppressed a facepalm. "I meant, you know... tell him that it's his choice but make sure he knows you care..."

Then a thought occurred to him. "You do care, right? I'm not just misreading things terribly?" It had been known to happen.

"Hey," Jaime leaned forward, sounding oddly worried. "Don't say that. You care a perfectly acceptable amount."

"Um... I think however much you care as long as you're not up to the level of being a creepy stalker or whatever?" Jaime suggested a bit hesitantly. "I mean... you're not, like, following him around or secretly reading his mail, right?"
