Just trying to get by [backdated to Friday]

Characters: John Egbert (AU) and Jade Harley
Format: action
This log is: closed
Location: Fortitude, black dorms
Summary: Jade's been MIA, John's pretty sure he knows what happened and goes searching ALL THE DOORS for his wayward ectosis. (Spoiler: he finds her under her bed.)
Warnings: Cuddles, the angst that you've come to expect from the Homestuck AUs in the past week. (also, ignore the bloody nose in that icon, shhhhhh)

[ John has checked all the doors on the Black dorm, and he has still not found Jade. So, before he moves on to checking all the doors on the Pale dorm, he figures it can't hurt to check her room. Not that there's really any place for her to be, he thinks as he walks in, but it can't hurt, right?

He does not actually expect to find her when he leans down and peeks under her bed. To his surprise, however, she's actually there, and he flashes her a hesitant (upside-down) smile and waves with his good hand.

Here, Jade. Have your ectobro, complete with Ace-bandage-wrapped wrist. He's been worried about you. ]

[ He uses his good hand to adjust her hands a little, since his signing was a bit off thanks to the bandage. But very soon, he shoots her a thumbs up, and then hugs her again. ]

i'm mostly just glad you're ok.
i was worried about you.

Worried about me?

[ She seems really surprised. ]

gdi dw, stop trolling.

[ well, John seems surprised that she's surprised. He signs (very deliberately, so she will definitely understand) something she knows before continuing on his PDA ]

<<'You're my best friend.'>>

of course i was worried!
i didn't know where you were or what was going on, and dave was being weird, too, and i had no idea if you were all right or not!
