Morph and Brady's Apartment

[stjohn]

"Morning." John muttered back in return as a greeting. Looking back at the book, he turned the next page. Shifting in the seat, his fingers drummed against the table top.

[Morph]

Morph set the coffeemaker to work and sat perched on the counter. For a few moments he looked at John reading, then broke the silence. "So, uh..." he said. "Do you do this often?"

[stjohn]

"Do what?" He asked, glancing up yet again from the book. "Read?" An eyebrow rose, as he flipped through a few more pages, before coming across one of the more exciting parts of the book.

[Morph]

"No," Morph said. "Find random girls on the street that offer you a place to stay."

[stjohn]

A small, dry smirk worked it's way onto John's face, as he gave a shrug. "I've met plenty of random girls. Only one's offered me a place to stay, though."

[Morph]

Morph kept silent for a moment, too sleepy yet to react properly to anything around. "Well, I was just wondering... because it might be just you, then probably I have nothing to be concerned about, otherwise I should brace myself for Brady coming to me every few weeks with," he replaced his head with the replica of Brady's, imitating her voice as well, "honey, this guy will be staying at our place!"

Returning his head to its usual appearance, he turned to glance at the coffeemaker that was slowly filling with coffee, spreading the aroma around the kitchen.

(( gotta go ))

[stjohn]

John was slightly surprised by the sudden transformation, despite already knowing what his power was. "I'm just staying for a few days. I have some sh*t to take care of in the city." Closing his book, he leaned back in the chair somewhat. "And I doubt your apartment will suddenly turn into some damn homeless shelter or something for wandering guys."

[Morph]

"That's the image I've been having, yeah," Morph nodded.

(( "bed"? 8) ))

[stjohn]

"Got it." John replied, with a short nod. "Well I'll be long gone if that happens."


((Hehehe it's changed. Damn cough medicine makes me loopy. )

[Morph]

Morph chuckled, considering this. Thinking honestly, he really had nothing against John. Not even against him supposedly being a thief, Kevin was just careless enough not to focus on that aspect. It was mainly Brady's unexpected attitude towards him that got him all concerned about the situation. "I see," he said randomly. "How long are you planning to stay? - just so, you know, I could at last feel more or less informed..."

[stjohn]

A shrug was his immediate answer. Honestly, he didn't know. It couldn't take more than a handful of days though.... "Three or four days, probably? Nothing longer than five." He told Kevin.

[Morph]

"Whoa," Kevin said, staring at the floor while he was thinking ahead and trying to imagine the next few days with John around. "Jesus... why am I always the last to find out about things?.." he muttered, then grabbed a cup. "Coffee?"

[stjohn]

"Sure." John answered. He could use some coffee. Drumming his fingers on the table, he looked back up at Kevin. "I won't be here a lot though, in the apartment. I just need a place to sleep."

[Morph]

"Okay," Kevin said with a small shrug. "Guess I can live with that," he poured coffee into two cups, then grabbed a pack of cigarettes from the counter, put it in his pocket and, taking both cups, walked over to sit down at the table. He placed John's cup in front of the guy, sat down and fished out a cigarette from the pack.

[stjohn]

An eyebrow rose at the cigarette being taken by Kevin from the pack, but he made no comment. Leaning back in his chair, he sipped the coffee slowly, his gaze wandering around the apartment.
