Rm 326 - Monday night

[fantastic_torch]

Johnny got moved into his room all right. Though he did have only minor problems with his door knob. He wouldn't discuss how he got it to turn for him either.

He didn't care about unpacking. He just set his stuff wherever and tossed himself down onto his bed. More privacy was better but damn, he didn't have anyone to be private with. What the hell?

He was restless and bored and thought about his workshops today. They were made of awesomeness.

Still..."Ahhh, screw it." He dug through a bag and pulled out his toy. The thing. Then he made it talk, 'It's clobberin' time'. 

(ooc: open to anyone especially roomie if he wants..sp is love)

Being near to her made it easy for him to sense the change in her, the quick tensing, and it concerned him. What she told him toook him aback and he sat quietly, thinking about it before he responded, hoping he was right, "But not because of you, right?"

Was it a lie to say no? She hadn't started those fights. She hadn't wanted to hurt anyone, not at the start. She hadn't even gone after anyone for revenge, or because she wanted to hurt them. She'd been so scared, and just wanted them to leave her alone. And her Daddy had said to. He'd said to destroy all of it, make it all go away.... But she had.

Johnny wouldn't understand. Sometimes she didn't.

Charlie swallowed, and looked down at the pillow in her hands. "Because I was different. Because my parents were different." She was quiet, thinking of Irv and Norma. "Grandpa Irv got shot. He still helped us, though."

He studied her profile and didn't know really what to say. He never had to deal with being different, or rather growing up being different. And when his abilities did come, it was almost instant overnight fame.

Johnny felt for Charlie, he really did, and he went to move his arm, to wrap it around her and bring her against his side if she allowed. He said softly, "I'm sorry, Charlie. I can't say that I understand the feelings you must have, because I've never been in that position. But I care for you, and how you feel means a lot to me. And I'm here to listen..."

Which was just so nice of Johnny, that Charlie couldn't help but hug him, and hang on tight for a minute. "Thanks," she mumbled. "So much."

He held her for as long as she wanted, "Anytime, Charlie."
