Jaime is just that cool [COMPLETE]

WHO: Tommy (Speed) and Jaime (Blue Beetle)
WHERE: La casa de Jaime
WHEN: March 2nd, 2AM, when Jaime is back from his talk with Teddy
WHAT: Tommy thinks Jaime is awesome~
WARNING: None
FORMAT: Quicklog on AIM

Tommy: *hears sounds of people entering the house at like, 2AM, peaks and is totally gonna stalk Jaime until Teddy's not with him anymore* *sneaks on him* Hey.
Jaime: *landing on the fire escape outside his window and powering down while climbing in. He hits the sill with his knee.* Eeow--! *and suddenly: Tommy* EAH! *stumbles the rest of the way in, faceplanting on his bed. Glances up Dude.* Never again.
Tommy: *laughing at Jaime's total fail at being subtle - yes he is a great friend* So, you felt like you were too cool for doors?
Jaime: *getting up, dignity dead, and closes window* Doors are where downstairs are, right before squeaky stairs as I try to quietly not wake anyone up. *squints* Why are you up?
Tommy: Ah, yeah, got you just made a great job at being quiet. *is grinning* And also - with the total 'hey I'm younger/older/don't remember a thing' chaos, I don't think a lot of people are sleeping.
Jaime: Well...*deflated* Yeah, I guess...
Tommy: *sits on Jaime's bed by his side without ever asking if he could because asking is never necessary, of course* You're gonna tell me why you were trying to not wake up anyone?
Jaime: You mean I'd have a reason besides it being like...three in the morning?
Tommy: It's two, actually. *raises an eyebrow* You were seriously just afraid you'd wake people up? That's your reason?
Jaime: *exasperated sigh, running a hand through his hair* Nn. Just... didn't really wanna have to do the whole "so how was your day dealing with friends doing the Time Warp?"
Tommy: Too late. Besides, I'd be a bad friend if I didn't ask. *links are being made as Tommy uses his brain* You totally just talked about it with Teddy, right?
Jaime: Yeah, well--*double-take* Wait. Was that just a guess, or did you already know that?
Tommy: *smirks* That was a guess but I guess well.
Jaime: *deadpan* Oh. *sigh, again* Yeah, I bumped into Teddy earlier and divulged my stupid on him.
Tommy: What stupid?
Jaime: Uh. *grimaces, trying to think of a way to word his explanation*
Tommy: You can't back away from telling me now, you know how completely annoying I can get when I wanna know something.
Jaime: Alright, alright, just--*serious jaime face is serious. and kind of puppy-eyed* Please don't tell anyone, okay?
Tommy: *oh God so curious* Yeah, sure. Now, shoot.
Jaime: *breathes. a beat. not for dramatic effect, more so he can...not say something dumb* Uhm. Well I. Kind of had a talk with Iron Man. *wince for effect*
Tommy: *uh... what* How did you manage that?
Jaime: Eruh...Hacked a computer and just...told Scarab to find him for me pronto? *octave jump near the end, starting to sound sheepish*
Tommy: *smiles more and more, completely impressed* I am failing at seeing the stupid part of that so hard.
Jaime: Are you kidding me? *bug-eye stare of disbelief* Just...jack a network and patch yourself into talking with the jerk who runs everything and could zap you or your friends in and out on a whim?
Tommy: *pats him on the back several times - now grinning* You make it sound more awesome by the second. Even though you need to look prouder about it now.
Jaime: *stares at him like he's insane* You're insane.
Tommy: *you're not gonna make him stop smiling* No one else ever did it. Hey, I'm not sure anyone would have thought about it and you manage to hacked up to the big guy. That's insane in some sort of incredible way. *small pause* Hey, did you get him to talk to you?
Jaime: *just...stares for a beat. Tommy you are ridiculous why did I tell you this.* Uhm. *blink* Er...yeah...for a minute or two before uh...logging out on him.
Tommy: Holy shit. You logged out on him? You're like the intimidating badass that gets Iron Man to do what he wants now. Why do you not want that spread over, again?
Jaime: Because it is so incredibly not intimidating or badass! It is incredibly stupid and irrational! *stops--before raising tone. breathes.* Look. He was level, if not...a bit annoyed, but. I don't want to give this guy a reason to trace me down and hurt any of you guys, or anyone I might know, right?
Tommy: *shakes his head in a 'aaaw so dramatic' way* And you have a typical hero complex to go with your hero behaviour. I won't spread it if you don't want me to. But. Just so you know. I think this was awesome.
Jaime: *flat stare, flat tone* You are insane. I believe this with all my heart. *a beat.* Okay, so. Like. This...whole age-change thing? It's like a...porter glitch. He said he's fixing it. *"yeah, right" look.* But...If anyone asks? Just say that like...there was a status post on it that only showed up for like...a few seconds before getting deleted or. Something. *wince, hoping that doesn't sound too hokey*
Tommy: I don't think anyone would ever ask me what's going on, but sure, if it makes you happy.
Jaime: Well, I mean! If you gotta tell anyone who's totally flipping their stuff over it. Y'know. In that instance. But other than that...yeah. Sworn secrecy is so cool right now and would probably make up for your insanity.
Tommy: I don't need to make-up for my insanity. You love me for my insanity.
Jaime: *B|-face, slight eyebrow quirk* You're having delusions again, dude.
Tommy: *smirking in a slightly devilish way* And you're not fooling me with that face of yours.
Jaime: Yeah, whatever, man. You have fun in Hallucination Land, tell me how that goes.
Tommy: *:O* Are you telling me you don't love me for who I am?
Jaime: *sourface* Are you telling me you're craving sappy attention at four in the morning?
Tommy: It's two. *he's not sticking his tongue out but he very well could be* Are you going to give it to me if I say yes?
Jaime: Two, four, whatever. *dismissive handwave* And that is highly debatable.
Tommy: Meaning you totally would. *too bad because he's getting up* Sadly for you, if I was craving sappy attention, I would have someone else to ask who happens to already be in my bed.
Jaime: Spare the details, please and thanks. Now, shoo. My head hurts and I want to pretend nothing about this day exists for a few blissful hours.
Tommy: Denial. So healthy. *zips to Jaime's door* See you in the morning. Later in the morning. Whatever.
Jaime: *nod* Yeah. Just remember to keep all that on the down-low, okay?
Tommy: Sure, sure. *and he's out*
Jaime: *faceplants pillow and grumbles into it*
