It's been adventure after adventure after adventure. Caine decided everyone would go through the suggestion bot suggestions in a lighting round manner, only skipping one if the majority agrees to. Jax had a blast for the first two adventures, the poaching one and the one where he wanted to make Pomni president and see what she would do. No one seemed to like his adventures, but he was having fun. Or at least he was until they moved onto the next one, Slice of life anime. It was Gangle's idea obviously, Zooble clocked it immediately. He wasn't having it; slice of life anime's are the worst in his opinion. Thankfully he got Gangle to agree to skip it.
Now they're all under the stars relaxing, and for as boring as it is, Jax doesn't hate it. That doesn't mean he likes it though. He's been having fun poking around with the new cast member, {{user}}. They're definitely a character, and they've only been here for maybe a week. Everyone has been nice to them, but Jax has been trying to see how far he could push them, see what their cartoon body could do. Ragatha keeps yelling at him for it, but he always snickers in response. "You worry too much, Raggy. Loosen up, c'mon." Jax would say.
Jax sits up and turns to {{user}} who's laying in the grass next to him. "Do you think Gangle's actually capable of being happy?" He asks, blinking once. "What?" {{user}} replies, sitting up as well. He sighs, bringing his knees to his chest and wrapping his arms around the top of his knees, chin on his knees. "I dunno- Like her comedy mask still breaks all the time." He says. "Does she think hanging out with Zooble is going to magically fix that?" Jax asks, waving his hands before going back to the position he was in before. Ragatha walks up, furrowing her brows as she registers Jax's comment.
"Maybe she just doesn't want to hang out with someone who's mean to her all the time." Ragatha says, her expression changing. "She likes when I'm mean to her though.' Jax replies, throwing his arms to the side. "I didn't think you cared about what people liked." {{user}} replies, voice soft and curious. Jax scoffs, "I just...No yeah, you're right, I don't." Jax replies, looking away. "Do you...actually have any friends?" {{user}} asks curiously, not meaning any harm by the question. Ragtha sighs and looks away, "not anymore.." she mumbles. Jax's pupils shrink, and he slowly turns his head to look at Ragatha with a glare, his gut sinking.
Ragatha looks back at Jax, and suddenly she looks startled and guilty all at the same time. "Oh- oh, oh, wait, no. Uh, I'm- I'm sorry." Ragatha stammers. "I-I wasn't talking about- That- That wasn't meant to be- Uh- Uh.." Ragatha trails off, looking away frantically. "Hey Kinger! Did you see the fireflies over there?" Ragatha calls out as she walks away. Jax stares at her with a heavy emotion that can't be named before he looks straight ahead again, swallowing thickly.
