Jasper
What a day. A whole day spent out of the quad and even her room. Lucifer had practically had to drag her out of the place but in the end it was good for the girl. Sometimes you just needed to spend time with your father. Pep talks meant she was even in okay spirits. Enough so that a trip for some new ink was in order. One set easily visible for the public while the other now lived beneath cloth. She could have made her way along the Roads back to the room, but there was a kind of breath to life that left the booted fae with a desire to walk the grounds. Hair still dyed that dark natural brown and her attire left to the same simplicity of a tank top beneath an off one shoulder cut up sleeveless, midriff sweater paired with the usual shorts and new found love of knee socks. Peering for a moment toward the fresh ink on both right and left inside wrist, Jasper smiled a little to herself and sighed. Her Daddy was right..she'd be fine. To hell with being sad. She as free now, right?
Ash
New Ink? Sounded terrible! Then again, Ash didn't like needles, and that pretty porcelain body needed to be picture perfect for any future modeling he might do, which is to say, probably none at all. Still, he wanted to be in the theater, and being in the theater meant that he'd likely want his body clean, so as to fit every role he might be offered. The light haired kid was making his way across campus while looking at snapchat, somehow effortlessly avoiding trees, dips in the road, and other obstacles in his way, despite looking down at his phone constantly (damn kids and their newfangled skills.) Today, he wore a t-shirt with the words 'wasted youth' on it, specifically with the t in Youth an upside down cross, while also wearing black slim fit jeans and black-and-white converse sneakers. Swipe, swipe, swipe -- blink. He came to stop a about a yard in front of Jas, having nearly walked into her, except his Generation Z spidey sense had warned him ahead of time. "Oh. ... you." He didn't say it meanly! He just... had like, twenty for hours of hanging out in his room stoned out of his mind to get to know her. Rotten luck! He was IN her, but not in the way a hormonally charged (cis) boy would want to be.
Jasper
It wasn't often she got herself caught off guard, but she'd enjoyed a little bit of natural greenery before leaving the company of her father was a little more than lost in the ink. Two simple words, one on each wrist: 'Stay' 'Strong' all swirly and delicate while still somehow being strong. Words and footsteps were hardly caught before she was near stumbling to a stop, prismatic hazels blinking at the boy while color drifted in multi-colored irises. All the colors of the rainbow, glimmering like the cosmos; slitted pupils a bit on the large side. Several long lashed blinks met with his figure while she tried to place familiar sights. He was...someone. Someone she sort-of-kind-of-not-really met? "Me...?" A look up and down her figure soon returned her gaze back to him. "Yep. Still me.." Thankfully the area seemed blissfully amiss of any 'wish' granting genies to perform any new body swaps. "..what about me?" Kerblink. Stare.
Ash
"... how goes, Maria?" Asked Ash, who immediately put the phone away, so he wouldn't be tempted to text one of his friends CHECK THIS GIRL OUT I GOT TO SEE HER TITS. That was rude, and it doesn't count if you got body-swapped, anyway. "You're not keepin the funny medicine in your back pocket today, are you?" He didn't approve. Namely, because he'd had to be on them without his consent. Drugs are bad, y'know? On the plus side, he wasn't half bad when asking about it. No accusation in those crystal blue eyes, just slight confusion and a smidge of concern, paired with a quick, furtive glance toward her chest.
Jasper
"Maria? Th' fuck?" She didn't even know a Maria! Did she? Another slow blink came as she tried to think. Nope. None that she could remember. Thankfully his follow up question jogged her memory and a sudden joust of pointed nail was given his way, eyes falling a bit wide. "YOU!" It wasn't an angry sound, at least. Jasper actually sounded a little bit excited. "That night! With the bodies! My body!" Befuddlement became replaced with amusement and that infamous Cheshire sort of grin. " 'Course I am. Never know when I'll need it. But whatever. What did you do with me? C'mon. You can tell me. Iwon'tbemad!"
Ash
"And what a body it was," replied Ash with a slight smile, while sighing and looking skyward -- wearing the sort of expression that seemed more appropriate of a boy remembering mom's home-made cooking than a kid who'd touched all up on a girl's bits. Snapping himself out of it, he looked back over to Jas, and raised his eyebrows. "... I got high out of my mind, and spent the evening getting you Not Raped and Not Murdered by listening to everything ever made by Daft Punk." You're welcome, Jas! He may be hormonal, but he was also a nice guy. Somewhat. Sometimes. Depending on the circumstance.
Jasper
What a look to see on a guy that had been inside of her body in the most non-sexual way possible. It actually kind of amused her! Her hand raised to push back a bit of dark strands that fell into her face from the half-hawk, cranium tilting to keep the cascade of hair to one side. "Not Raped and Not Murdered are good. I mean..that'd kind of suck. And it'd be rude to leave someone like that. I was super good to Alice's body!" Just a bit of drugs, nothing big or bad! To and fro she rocked on the heels of boots, seeming to ponder something. "Could always let you try it in your own body, y'know. What do y' say?" Yeeees. Go party with the pretty kitty. She needed more friends, anyway!
Ash
"There, you see? It's good to be polite to other people's bodies--" wait, she just said she'd gotten Alice high. Yeah. Yeahhhh, he looked a little shaken at that, because HE'D been thrown into drugs and HE didn't like them. No no no, they were no good, and he said as much, just now! "Not a chance, Maria. I like being in control of myself, and the magic pills are pretty much the exact opposite of that." What a good boy you were, Ash. Your father would be proud! But not your mother. You disappoint your mother! But who cares about her, anyway? "You wanna just chat?" Just chat. Lord, Ash was the most innocent kitten to ever stumble across the pretty kitty.
Jasper
"Who in th' fuck is Maria??" Once more she stared at him, scrunching her nose, "I'm not Maria. I'm Jasper. Jaaaasper." Sure, she was lacking her signature rainbow dyed look, but the ink and piercings gave it away, right? Still the five foot terror ready to start up some mischief. Even with the recent heartbreak. Some things just did not change! As for the drugs? All she could do was shrug. "You're missin' out, but okay." A slow sweet of her gaze found the skyline before a question was posed her way. Talk? Jasper paused to sincerely think on that. Talking could mean thinking and she wasn't a fan of thinking these days when it always left her sad. Then agaaain, how long had it been since she talked with someone her own age or around there. "S..ure..We can chat." Somehow she didn't think this was any awkward code like 'Netflix and chill', which was also a shame. Sort of. Kind of. Maybe? Lordie, she didn’t' even know anymore. "Do we want to go somewhere? My quad's close."
Ash
Ash paused. ... he raised his eyebrows. His mouth twisted; that twisted mouth morphed into a grin, and then... lightly, sweetly, with the sort of rich, deep tones and vibrato of a professional singer, Ash began to explain his nickname for her through song. "How do you solve a problem like Maria...? How do you catch a cloud, and pin it down...? How do you find a word that means Maria...? A flibbertigibbet, a will of the wisp, a clown...?" She should probably punch him in his stupid mouth right about now, but his song was so warm and gentle that it kind of sounded like a manifestation of a hug. Even if that hug was a little condescending. Laughing a bit, he nodded slightly. "Lead the way, Maria," he offered, arms out to gesture for her to show him where her quad was.
Jasper
Was he...singing at her? This boy was weird. Weird in a good way and she found that she actually kind of liked it! Enough to grin a bit more and even let him finish. No, she wasn't going to go punching him in the kisser. Finalizing the little serenading with a nod of approval, she snatched up his arm by linking elbows and gave a tugging lead toward the way to her quad. "You're going to confuse the hell out of people with that.." Pause. "I'm okay with this!" And off they went!
Ash
"Confusing people is a good change! Usually they just make cracks about me being young." Arms linked, the pair of them went skipping off toward Jas' quad, literally skipping, if Jas wanted them to. He didn't know where her quad was, or what was in it, but he tried not to think of Incense and Peppermints mixed with the decor of a 70's club, complete with swirling lights and everything. Meaningless finds, etc.
