And again, Jules was feeling like the kid had just grown an arm out of his forehead for no apparent reason. A moment of pure silence passed as he stared with varying degrees of incredulity at "R." One blink. Two blinks. Three.
"Made... one... up...?" he tried lamely, the cold facade he'd managed to keep up for the better part of his entire childhood flickering and fading within the span of a second as though it never existed. "Er... I'm... Jay, then."
That worked.

Reece rolled his eyes unconsciously. "Well, it won't work now dumb ass. That was just a suggestion." He shook his head. The less he said at a time, the better. He was just happy he could think, even if it was a small amount. "But I guess I'll call you Jay for now, as loserish as that sounds." He laughed a little. Surprisingly, it was a normal laugh. He usually had a cold harsh one. That, or he didn't laugh, at all.

"...Oh."
Nodding once, Jules returned his gaze to the sky, lips pursed into a thin, tight line. Whatta weird kid. If he was this bad when he was high, how'd it be if he weren't? The prospect of being able to compare two entirely different modes of thought caused a little well of interest to spring up in the back of Jules's mind, but he said nothing about it, hooking his arms about his knees and relaxing against the base of the tree. TickTock was still a paramount concern in his head -- he knew he had to get back and re-string her soon, because there was no way in hell he was letting her go more than four hours injured like that.
Yeah, Jules was a bit of a loony in that respect... but at least he was honest about it.
"So..." Wow, that was lame. I feel like I should be trying to grab his ass or something with that kind of line. "...How do you intend to get back?"

Reece wondered why he didn't retort. But then the thought slipped out of his mind. He stared up at the sky through the nasty trees. There wasn't much light. He started to play with his earring. It was a stud, so it wasn't that much fun, but little things entertained him. Then he heard him speak again. He moved his head to look at him again. "Well, I was probably going to pass out here. Then wake up and head back. Why?"

Another layer of silence accrued thickly between the two of them before Jules managed a shrug and some incoherent jumble of an answer, somehow expecting "R" to be able to decipher it at his leisure.
"It's going to be painful when your nerves start working again," he mused, sending a pointed look toward the lacerations on Reece's legs, courtesy of their settings.

Reece had been starring off in space. Then he heard his voice again. God, it got quiet fast. "Why do you give a damn? Huh?" He smirked and folded his arms across his legs. "Why do you care about me at all." It wasn't really one of those questions that he had expected to get a straight answer. It wasn't a rhetorical one either though.

Jules didn't particularly care what "R" was expecting as an answer and simply shrugged, rising to his feet and readjusting TickTock's strap over his shoulder. It was a moment before he decided to try a different approach to a new subject, arms crossed as he leaned back against the tree: it shuddered, almost unable to support his full weight, so he twitched annoyedly, correcting himself. Fucking nature.
"You're pretty coherent for being completely out of it... or are you just weird?"

Reece watched him stand up. He heard what he said and he stood up too. He stood facing him, his feet barely an inch away from his. "I may be out of it, but my mind can comprehend enough and make me defend myself automatically. I'm not weird, just experienced." He got a little closer as he said the last part, his voice more dangerous then friendly. He didn't like it when he called him weird.

A full smirk later, Jules was getting into Banter Mode, haughtily lifting his chin and staring back with equal force, that selfsame insufferable glare/grin plastered securely on his face.
"Touch a nerve?" he queried faux-sweetly, eyes glittering in malicious glee. Again, he paused before continuing, not having broken eye contact since "R" had stood and initiated it. "Whatta peculiar kid you are."

Reece felt his teeth clench together. "Oh, you'd know if you tocuhed a nerve. Sofaryouhaven't." Goddamn mouth. He ignored the last comment and stepped closer, his face inches from his. "So you better watch what you say.." he said his eyes getting colder by the second.
