apocalippedJonothon was twitchy.
Not twitchy as in random muscle spasms or anything, of course. More twitchy in that way that meant that he couldn't actually sit still for more than a few moments at a time, and he kept double-checking things like the curtains to make certain that they were drawn shut tightly, and he kept locking and unlocking the door, just to be certain that that much wasn't busted. But then, if he locked the door, that might give the wrong impression, and...
He was overthinking this. He was good at overthinking things lately, wasn't he? Okay, Chamber, just sit on your bed, clasp your hands, and wait. Nothing was going to explode just because you happened to be sitting there. Truly.
Bollocks.
[Jono is waiting for somebody, yes, but that doesn't mean that other people can't pay a visit to the silent dorm room, too.]

"I -- I have class."

//I won't keep yer from it, then,// he replied, looking at her hand. And then, realizing much the same, he... Returned that squeeze. Hands. See? Those were awesome and somewhat expressive. They each had two of them! How convenient, that.

And then she went to leave.

And then flopped backward onto his bed, staring up at the ceiling and laughing silently in spite of it all. Because of it all. Whatever all of that had been, he was keeping it.
