Jax snuck a quick glance at Laeni as she studied the water, shifting his feet. Well, wasn't that uncomfortable and awkward- and yes, very incredibly corny. Still... he thought maybe the peace would find her. At the end of one of those long, competitive days, perhaps. When everything went right for once, and lying in bed, studying the ceiling, she could realize that she wasn't who she used to be, too. That she'd somehow inexplicably grown, for the better.
Brahgo looked startled, and no wonder. Jax was rarely this, well, deep around him. Not that what he'd said was deep, but he wasn't joking around and being a meathead for once in his life. Ah, well. He could be full of surprises, but right now, it was time to change that. He crept up on the other student, a barely restrained smile creeping over his face. "Hey Brahgo, guess what?" he asked, before cupping his hands in the fountain and splashing a handful of water on him.
