"Well, then maybe a trip to Cranbrook is in order," Jade told him. She wouldn't mind having somebody to go with anyway. She usually went on her own and she was fine with that, but company wouldn't hurt anything and she could always use a few more dresses or a new military style jacket.
She settled in, waiting for his question and she'd already opened her mouth to say 'a bed, duh' with a smirk, but she didn't have time because he seemed to already suspect it and added on clothing-wise. She clamped her mouth shut and smiled. He had her pegged already. "I guess this is an appropriate starter question since you already enlightened me with how you sleep," she agreed before answering. "A black tank top and boyshorts," she said with a shrug. "Boyshorts are a kind of girls' underwear in case you're uneducated on the topic. And I've only slept naked a few times and that's when it gets too unbearably hot and I don't have airconditioning," she explained before looking at him. "Truth or dare?"

Talon considered the idea. Shopping with Jade could be fun. She seemed to know about these so-called thrift stores that he had never been to. Maybe she could show him the best ones and he could get some new clothes. His were showing signs of wear and tear, and that was just not okay with him, now that he was starting to care about his life a bit more.
"That sounds like a plan," he said, wondering what he would be able to find. Maybe some new pairs of pants and a few new shirts and hoodies. A pair or two of shoes couldn't hurt, either. His parents had sent money recently, and he never spent it except on cigarettes.
He smiled cheekily at her and nodded in agreement when she figured the question was fair. He had thought so, too, hence why he had asked it. He was curious as to what she slept in, though it was an odd thing to wonder about a person.
"Oh, I know what boyshorts are," he said, unable to help picturing her in boyshorts and a tank top. The image was quite pleasing to him. Oh, yes. Very pleasing. He could not help, either, the small smile that played on his lips until she turned the game over to him.
"Oh, um. Truth as well," he decided. He would do a dare later; for now he did not mind answering personal questions. It wasn't like he had anything to hide.

"They are the comfiest kind of underwear," Jade pointed out. "Screw thongs. I don't understand people who wear that shit." A smile played about her lips as she realized she sounded so serious about her undergarment choices. He had a small smile on his face and Jade nudged him, knowing what he was probably thinking, but said nothing, thinking of a question to ask him. Truths were a good way to start out. Dares didn't happen until later.
"Hmm..." she mumbled, as the song changed on the CD once more. "Are you a virgin?" she asked, wiggling her eyebrows and then laughing.

"I wouldn't know," Talon chuckled. "I've never worn a thong. Speedo, yes. But boxers. They're the most comfortable. Just to spend the day in a pair of comfortable boxers is great. If you weren't here, that's how I would be spending my evening. Music, smokes, and boxers," he said, then shrugged nonchalantly. "But I guess I can stand being fully clothed if we get to hang out."
He grinned guiltily when she nudged him again, but since she did not tell him off, he did not bother apologising. Instead he did his best to distract himself from thoughts like that and took another drag of his cigarette while he waited for her question.
When she came up with one, he jokingly scowled at her. "Oh, so I ask what you sleep in, and you jump right into a sex question?" He shook his head at her, then smiled somewhat shyly and stared at the pile of cds opposite them, not really focusing on any particular one. "But yeah. I am," he answered her. "I mean, I've kissed my fair share of people, but..." He half-shrugged. "Nothing too intense."

"Please don't ever wear a thong," Jade pleaded with him, before stifling laughter. She would probably be doing something similar if she wasn't here right now, so she figured why not do it together? It made sense, well except for him just chilling in his boxers. "Well, try and keep your clothes on," she joked and then mocked a gasp. "Excuse me, I can ask whatever I want." She stuck out her tongue at him and waited for his answer, seeing him avert his gaze and stare at the desk. "Welcome to club virgin," she told him with a smirk. "Oh and truth, because I'm not taking a dare just yet." He didn't even have to ask.

Talon too stifled laughter at her reaction to the thong thing, and said, "Well in that case, maybe I will. Hey, I bet I'd look just fine in a thong," he joked, shaking his head. But no. No way would he do that. Who wanted a string up their ass, anyway? Although he had to admit that they did look great on girls. Still, boyshorts were good. Yes, they were good too.
He smiled, glad he was not alone in being a virgin. Then again, he was only in the tenth grade. He hoped for their sake the rest of his grade were virgins as well. Not that he would pass up the opportunity if the right person came along, but still. He was fifteen.
"Truth again?" he asked, teasingly raising his eyebrows in a judgemental way. "Chicken. But fine. Since you already answered that question without prompt... If you could have sex with one person right now, who would it be? Any famous actor or band member out there you'd say yes to in a heartbeat?" he asked, a grin on his face. The question was a fun one, but he was curious. What and who was she into? She had said rugged before, but how rugged?

"I will boycott you wearing a thong. I will stand outside your dorm room with a sign. That's how serious I am about that not happening," Jade said, half-joking. She couldn't help but wrinkle her nose at the image that her mind was producing. "Ugh, not a good image...we are no longer speaking of this." Yet she smiled afterwards.
"Yes, truth again. Don't you know how to play truth or dare? No one takes a dare right away. It's an unwritten rule." She stuck out her tongue at him and then waited for his question, her head resting on the desk they sat up against. "Kurt Cobain, hands down," she answered without much thought. "Of course first I'd have to bring him back to life first." She'd joked to Rafi about bringing Kurt Cobain back to life several times because he was her soul mate. At least she claimed so. "Why? Were you hoping it'd be you?" She smirked.

The image of Jade creating a picket line outside of his dorm with a single sign saying 'No thongs for Talon' was enough to make him lose it. He snorted and burst out laughing once she wrinkled her nose. "Well now I know how to punish you if you ever get on my nerves," he said once he calmed down enough to speak.
He then smiled. She was right; he had not taken a dare right away either, but he felt like being a bit of an asshole. "Well this is your second go, so that's not 'right away', now, is it?" he teased.
"Kurt Cobain, eh? All right, decent choice. We can still be friends," he teased, nudging her playfully with his elbow as he took another drag of the nearly finished cigarette.
"Oh yes. I was hoping it would be me, but I figure I'll let it slide this time. You can't compete with Kurt," he said with a small shake of his head and a flash of a grin.
"PS, I choose dare," he added, his grin widening. "Because I'm no chicken."

Jade smiled, impressed with her joke. Every time she got Talon to laugh, it was a reminder that he could at least have a good time still, that saving his life had been good for him. She didn't regret it, but wondered if Talon still wanted to be dead. That didn't just change over night.
"Shut up," she said straight up when he teased her, but she knew that he would get that she was joking. He got her like that. They were of a similar breed. Suddenly she had a thought. "I hope that Lanie does not decide to show up any time soon. This conversation is not something I want her to hear."
"I'm glad you approve of Mr. Cobain. Although personally it wouldn't matter if you didn't. But alas, my soulmate is dead and his spirit hasn't tried to find me yet. He hasn't realized we're destined to be together," she said, mocking a lovesick teenager before bursting out into laughter. He'd chosen dare and she hadn't expected that.
So, she racked her brain for something and what she came up with wasn't as lame as half of the other stuff she thought of. Besides, she didn't want to get too devious just yet. "I dare you to talk in a fake british accent the rest of the game, just because it'll amuse me. British accents are such a turn on." She laughed, leaning back and nearly hitting her head on the desk.

He stuck his tongue out at her when she told him to shut up, but listened. He then chuckled at the thought of Lanie hearing his conversation. At least Jade would be able to see her sister, and warn Talon if the younger spirit showed up. They were teenagers now, after all, and not all of their conversations were for the ears of someone younger. Especially a sibling. He wondered briefly how Leah was faring. He did not think she had been around, at least not when Jade was as well, so he hoped things were better. Maybe, though he doubted it, she had moved beyond. But he tried not to focus on it.
"Maybe your matchmaker Lanie can fetch him for you," he joked while she feigned to be lovesick over Nirvana's late lead singer.
Talon stared at her when she finally came up with a dare. "You're joking," he said, wondering how on earth to do a British accent. However, he was not about to back out of the dare and lose and end the game, so he shrugged. "Well why the hell not," he said, doing his best to speak in an English accent. He scrunched up his face as he did so, not sure if it sounded right. "Since it turns you on so much," he added with a grin. "Well with that done, Jade darling," he teased. "Truth or dare?"

"I'm not so sure Lanie wants to go drag Kurt Cobain back from the other side for me, but I guess there's no hurt in asking," Jade joked. She thought of her younger sister, of where she was. She was probably talking with Leah or perhaps watching over their parents again. She could be doing anything really. She was an adventurous little girl.
"I am most certainly not joking, Talon," she said to him in a fake British accent of her own, laughing afterwards. "Okay, I'm not the one who's supposed to be doing that. Just had to try it out." She gave him a thumbs up, displaying the chipped black nail polish on her thumbnail. "Jade Darling? Your English accent is up to par, just so you know. I'm swooning." She rolled her eyes before speaking again. "Fine, you've convinced me. Dare me, Talon dear."

"Just so you know," Talon told her before giving her the dare she asked for. "This accent takes a lot of concentration. It's fun, but my head is starting to hurt. However, I am not one to back out from a dare... But fuck me, do I sound posh," he laughed.
"All right. I have the perfect dare," he said, glancing over his shoulder and up at the desk they leaned against. Then he turned his head back to face Jade, and grinned widely. "I dare you," he said, straining to keep up the accent, "to take something from Coach's desk. Something he'll notice is gone, but not anything you could get arrested for. Like if he has cash or something in there, you can leave it. But don't be a wuss and steal a pack of staplers, either." He raised his eyebrows challengingly. Oh yes, this game was fun.

"Of course it takes a lot of concentration. You're not actually British," Jade told him, laughing at his fake accent. It was as entertaining as she thought it would be. The perfect dare? She braced herself and then when he told her the dare, she rolled her eyes. "You're making me get up? Damn, Talon...that is cruel enough." But she took what he said very seriously. She could get kicked off of the swim team for stealing something, but then again, as long as it wasn't anything valuable. Something he'd notice, but wouldn't miss. She nodded at him. "Clever though. Fine." She got to her feet, smoothing out her dress before walking over to the other side of the desk and pulling open the drawer. "What do we have here...let's see..." she began rummaging through the contents. There was a bottle of correction fluid, a few coins, some masking tape. Boring so far. "Seems as if coach isn't a very exciting person," she said, slightly disappointed, before she came across something. "No way...what the hell." She picked out a box that was slightly crushed and held it up for Talon to see, making a disgusted face. "This is not okay." It was a box of condoms. "He will definitely notice these are missing. Too bad I have no use for them," she joked, shutting the drawer and making her way back over to him.
"Your turn, what will it be?"

"Yeah, sorry. Unless you also have telekinetic powers and can like levitate something out of the desk," he said, feeling slightly bad that she had to get up now. He certainly did not want to stand. But he did not feel bad enough to also get up, and so stayed slumped against the front of the desk while she rummaged.
When she showed him the box of condoms, he was not sure whether to laugh or be grossed out. He ended up a mixture of both, and laughed uncomfortably. Seeing the condoms made him think of his coach having sex, and that was not a thought a students wanted to have about a teacher. He wrinkled his nose, but was pleased with how the dare turned out. Condoms. Brilliant.
"I think I'll go with truth this time," he said slowly, holding out his hand for the condom box. He wanted to inspect the contents. Were many of the condoms used? In a way, Talon hoped so, because then at least his coach was putting them to use. But in a way he hoped the box was full, because again... teachers and sex was not a topic he wanted to imagine.

"That is more than I needed to know," Jade said, still unable to stop thinking about her coach having sex. And why would he keep the condoms in his desk at the school? Why would he need them here? "Please tell me he does not have sex in this room... oh my god." The thought killed her as she tossed the box to him, not wanting to hold it anymore anyway. She sat back down next to him, crossing her ankles again.
Another truth. "Since it's obvious that British accents turn me on, what are your turn-ons?" She raised an eyebrow at him.
