Time for a talk.

[girlspider]

WHEN: Friday afternoon
WHAT: May needs to have words with Jay
WHERE: His room
WHO: Jay and May

It's been sometime since she's seen Jay.

It might be the best for right now, considering May had to juggle quite a few things. Like asking certian best friends of certian fathers if she could get rides back up to college for the rest of the semester in the Fantasticar until she could transfer to Columiba University come the next Fall term.

Or hold off a while longer, that wasn't such a bad idea... again. Though she was pretty sure her father would flip his mind if she decided to hold off on going to college, again. It wasn't too pretty.

But after that was done, she realized she needed to go talk to someone. Not that May much cared if someone saw her walking down the familiar hall. She figured - and she wasn't great at this, she was often thick as toast - this could be encouraging.

And it was time to tell Jay things, really. A lot of things, notably after his rampage. Because the one time they talked before then had gone... poorly. She pauses at his door, and then she knocks.

His jaw worked for a moment but no sounds came out. He really didn't want to talk about it, and his throat was obliging. He just wanted to hide and forget it. Except he couldn't.

Not if he was going to have May back. She deserved his best.

He managed to find his voice. "What... do you want to know?"

"You seemed..." She began, her hand turned in the air to make gestures, as if to spin words. She lacked her father's ability to do that sometimes. Most times she lacked it when they had to be meaningful; not light and airy to show the world she wasn't afraid.

"You knew me and didn't. And I... I wanted to know what else I might have done to you. Besides... you know, bending up?" Since they were back together and apparently their bond hadn't broken as cleanly as they hoped.

"I... I don't remember much of it. Not after Dr. Green had someone go in my head. Play with my memories." There was a spot on the floor Jay's eyes were finding extremely fascinating. A small stain he was trying to figure out what it was in the shape of.

"While she was in my head... messing with memories, he was trying to get gamma radiation.So, I let go. I... stopped holding the rage in. It took over."

He shifted a bit. "After I let it go, I couldn't rein it in. One of the times I almost got through, it was you. But rage will grab any hurt and use it. I fought hard, but I couldn't stop it enough. A duck."
