She'd understand. I get that all the time.

[ It may be text but you know it's cheeky. ]

[Text]

[thelittlestbub]

[And she grins because she knows.]

I'd laugh but that would hurt. Besides, I have a girlfriend policy: do not annoy. Saves me a lot of problems.

Thirty seconds.

I'll try to keep my love from being too gooey.

[action;]

[kal_el]

[ Clark is there to be let in thirty seconds later, as promised. ]

[action;]

[thelittlestbub]

[Oh he gets let in and pointed at Jubes's condo where she's gooey and sick and curled up on her couch with tea (ew) and wearing sweats, socks and her hair scraggly. She hates being sick. She's one of those people that immediately look like a famine survivor when she does.

And, there's nothing on TV.]

I'd hug you, but you'd probably catch the plague. Bless you.

[action;]

[kal_el]

Invulnerable alien, remember? I'm probably one of the few people around you can get away with hugging.

[ There's cookie dough and oreos and chips carefully hidden away in his cape, and he digs them out and hands them on over. ]

[action;]

[thelittlestbub]

Seriously, bless you.

[She takes the cookie dough because that... is needed. Uhhuh. NEEDED.]

Feel free to stay. I'm not going anywhere.

[Pouty? Yep.]

[action;]

[kal_el]

[ Clark finds himself a corner to lean against, folding his arms and watching. ]

Because you're sick? Or is there some other reason?

[action;]

[thelittlestbub]

Because Michael's mean and made me promise to keep my butt up here and stay down.

[POUT.]

[action;]

[kal_el]

And the health food?

[action;]

[thelittlestbub]

His way of curing me. Me? I'm just trying not to lose too much weight.

Re: [action;]

[kal_el]

That sounds like the best idea, really. Not losing too much weight again. Michael has an odd way with colds, doesn't he?

[action;]

[thelittlestbub]

Pneumonia. Same thing.

[She's stuffing her face because... CALORIES.]

[action;]

[kal_el]

I'm afraid I wouldn't know, having never had pneumonia.

[action;]

[thelittlestbub]

Ya know, that's one irritating thing about people with invulnerability. Neeever experiencing the joys of being gooey.

[A wink.]

Which is why they always get stuck with sick duty.

[action;]

[kal_el]

I've experienced it, but the common cold isn't quite the same thing. And I don't mind sick duty, not really. It's relaxing after all the rest of them.

[ He pulls himself away from the wall, moving to sit next to her. ]
