[magnetic_magpie]

Who: All House of Awesome people and guests
When: Month of February
Where: The House of Awesome
Summary: Open Log for HoA CR
Warnings: Will be updated as needed!

((OOC: So! Please see the House of Awesome Metapost for info on the house. ANYONE not Lucifer can enter the porch - and while you CAN hit the buzzer to have someone meet you, you can ALSO just walk in! Remember folks, Lucifer CAN get on the roof, k? The inner door is only locked AFTER Sirens. Wander around the ground floor, or go visit people's apartments. The POOL cannot be gotten to without a resident though. If you want Danger Room time, please label your threads as Danger Room threads since it has limited access. Tag your subject line with the date and time, ok? And any warnings if needed. Castiel is the only angel with access to the levels lower than the pool, his apartment is Michael proofed, as is Magneto's office (which is also Gabriel proofed). Magneto's condo, the main kitchen, and some other places may be Hellhound Proof.))

"The spandex brigade?" Rochelle raised an eyebrow at that while she rested her chin in her hand over the table. She could take a good enough guess what that was.

She shook her head, as much as she could, with her free hand up in the in mock defeat. "No, no no no. He doesn't have to marry me. I don't even know if I'd want to be married here. Then again getting married back home's an even crappier idea. Trust me, I already memorized my we-might-not-get-tomorrow's." But here was a lot more of a home to her now than life could ever be again where she came from.

"... But--" She bit her lip. God, this was going to sound cheesy. "An 'I love you' would be sure as hell nice."

She grinned. "It's what others call us. It's not actually spandex."

Jubilee looked up. "Saying 'I love you' creates a commitment, Ro. Some people aren't comfortable with that." God knew she barely ever said it. It created complications she didn't want in her life. So, she showed people, rather than telling them.

"And, I'm totally a product of my raising, but sometimes saying it is more dangerous than living it." She shrugged.

Rochelle raised an eyebrow. "You don't know think I know that? Jubilee, I might not like cheesy tunnel of love rides but I'm not scared of being in love. In the thirty years I've been alive so far I've done it a few times already."

Note: she's never said specfically if she was in love back with him yet.

And she knew that wasn't exactly what Jubilee meant. It wasn't avoiding it--at least not trying to. She had done enough avoiding in the relationship. a little less than Nick did, and she and him talked the hell out of his commitment issues. But having it have been in her mind already she was still processing it.

Jubilee shrugged. "Hey, in my world, being married or in love with someone could get them killed. By your enemies, by your friends, by you. It's all a matter of what happens when."

She almost never said 'I love you'. It was just too damned dangerous.

[axemeaquestion]

Rochelle held up a hand and waved it briskly, almost dismissively. "THAT I'm not afraid of. I'm sorry it happened in your--where you come from, though."

[thelittlestbub]

"Not to me. To.. quite a few people I know though. The guys I had crushes on ended up dead and never knew about it." She shrugged. Ev and Angelo... were sore spots, but they were ones she handled.

[axemeaquestion]

A sigh. "It's not what I'm afraid of, but... I'm sorry. That it happened to you, I mean."
