We're gonna make leather boots out of his hide. [ Johnny scowls at that. The adversarial nature of their connection isn't new, but abandoning Jack in the tundra is absolutely unacceptable. ]
Hang on. I'm coming for you right now. Do you have anything around you to keep warm with? Is Simon okay?
[ Johnny sobers. He understands what he means. A part of him wonders if Jack would be just as sad if he hadn't returned, and he feels guilty for not wanting to be here -- then irritated at himself for it.
He shakes it off. Jack's here and safe, and that's what matters. He'll deal with everything else later. His special someone is here, he has to focus on that. ]
Would giving him ciggies help? I mean, it's not like he can get cancer.
[He smiles at Johnny, quietly but so extremely grateful to see him. He feels guilty for that too, knowing how happy Johnny was to be home, to see his family again.]
I don't think anything but time will help, if that. But I think being around friends is a good idea, if that's alright with you.
[ Johnny says agreeably. It isn't even an option for him either, now that his heart is set on Sir Sourpuss. ]
Let's see if we can't cheer him up. It must really suck for him to know the person he loves is gone. I can't begin to imagine. [ And he doesn't want to. He's trotting at a brisk pace, looking away only to check the map. ] Where were you the past few days, anyway?
Ah. A world with even more zombies. [He smirks at him, eyes dark and glimmering.] It made me miss normal humans in mouse and dog costumes - if that can be considered normal.

He abandoned me in this tundra. Sneered and took flight the second he spotted me.

Jack! Freezing your nuts off isn't poetic! Did you get hurt when you fell?
video;
[The eyeroll is almost audible, but it's such a relief, a comfort to know that Johnny is still Johnny.]
Not a scratch. [A beat.] I have to repair the damage I did to the church.
video;
[ That's a good thing, and Johnny's mind turns to something else, because Johnny is Johnny. ]
So, it didn't hurt when you fell from heaven?
[ ...yep. ]

video;
Just hurry and find me so I can kiss you again.
video;
Will there be cuddling?
video;
[Which could be considered cuddling. Very aggressive cuddling.]
video;
I'm hoping Simon doesn't have super hearing. The things I'm going to do to you... I'll make sure you can't walk straight for a week.
video;
I'm sure we can find something to keep him occupied.
video;
He's not, uh, hungry, right?
video;
[Simon might not say it, but he can tell. He sees a hunger in his eyes that isn't entirely unfamiliar.]
They're more like drugs to him than food. Someone special to him didn't return.
[The last he says more softly, looking at Johnny so that he understands what he means by "someone special".]

Are you asking me if he's allowed to be around us?

[ Johnny smirks at him. ] Usually I just hook up with a few hot chicks. Sometimes at once. So, his special person's a dude?
video;
It is. And hooking up isn't the solution here.

video;
We've been traveling away from the church, trying to figure out our old new world.
video;
No, I mean before you came here. I landed in a world with dinosaurs in it. It was cool.
