Red honestly didn't like the fact that Jay was calling her dumb but doesn't call her out on his shit. Doesn't argue with him to say she wasn't because in a way she knew it wouldn't get anywhere. Though she feels like she can't breathe for a moment and stares at him," That's... What?" She didn't say how Jay could love her. Couldn't see," I didn't want to ruin anything."

"For the entire time you've known me, if I didn't want to deal with your shit, I could've killed you. On the spot. Just by going 'No, fuck you', glowing my eyes, and using my powers. Yet here you are alive. I'm kind of a royal dick" With a heart of gold, dear Jay. "If you don't see something right in front of you, you're so dumb."

Ronny twitched an ear, the tenseness of the area leading to his just curling up against Red as much as he could. Maybe not the best to be around a stressful situation, but alas.

"There's been days where I'm surprised you all haven't just up and killed me," she states softly, fingers brushing over one of the hare's ears. She bites her bottom lip and yeah, the pain in her knuckles were starting to really get to her. Show her that 'hi, my name is pain and I'm here.' "I love both of you," she states, voice full of confidence. It doesn't mean that her mind isn't still warring with her. "I've loved Ronny since we were kids and you... I don't know what you did, Jay. Just know you wormed your way in somehow and I fell in love with you too."

Ronny snuffed his nose against her arm a bit, close to where the sleeve covered her hand. He closed his eyes for a moment, wanting nothing more than for her pain to just go away and for Red to be better. Jay saw the pain too, and the words definitely helped to prompt him to move next to her, placing his hand on her leg, where he could put one hand on the fingers of her wounded hand. Both boys eyes gave a gentle glow they weren't even fully aware of happening. The wound was healing up, though. The boys wanting nothing more than to help.

She felt that cold nose against her arm and watched Jay as he moved beside her. As one hand was placed on the fingers of her wounded hand. However, she notices what they don't. Notices the glow of their eyes and it's different somehow, has a different feel to it. "What're you doing?"

Jay blinked, frowning a bit before realizing there was that familiar feeling that he was using his powers, not realizing it was a different sort of power until Ronny had opened his own eyes and he spotted the purple there. "Apparently not killing anyone or thing, or bringing anything to life." He was baffled, unsure what was going on.

The moment Red sees purple in those eyes she pulls her hand from Jay's. Pulls it away from his and reaches up running fingers lightly along the edge of his eye," Your eyes are purple." We're sure if the boys are paying attention she doesn't seem to be in pain and her knuckles? They're completely healed. No sign that she ever decided to fight a tree and lose.

Ronny had opted to hop off her lap to change back to how he was, the purple fading the same time as Jay's, but remaining bright because of the shield he put around them out of instinct. "Red, your knuckles..."

Jay blinked at the contact, his eyes fading back to their brown. At Ronny mentioning her knuckles, he had moved to take her hand gently to examine them more closely. "... How the hell...?" It was baffling. He looked to her, confused "It's like nothing ever happened..."

"What about my knuckles?" She asks making a slight face before looking down at them. Though not until Jay's eyes returned to normal and he'd taken her hand in his own. "... What just happened? None of us can just... You and Ronny's eyes were both glowing purple too. I noticed that. I've never seen either of your eyes do that before."

"I didn't want you to be hurting anymore." Jay frowned, Ronny nodding in agreement of that being the main thought. "... Maybe it's our powers evolving...?" It seemed to make sense.

"M-maybe it's... A connection between us...?" It was an idea. Ronnys voice was quiet, like he wasn't confident enough in his own response, nor that he even actually had a place to say it.

Red just smiles a bit and wraps an arm around Ronny and the other around Jay. First kissing Ronny's cheek and then Jay's, smiling," Maybe you're right and it is the connection between the three of us. After all, neither of you could do something like that before. Not that I'm aware of."

Both boys leaned against her, Ronny giving a bit of a squeak because of not quite expecting it, but definitely finding it comfortable. He smiled softly, Jay smiling a bit as well, moving to put his hand over the hand on his side.

He then decided to teasingly poke at Ronny "By the way, when she clawed Gwynne's face. That moment. Safe to assume you're no longer dating her." There was a brief moment of inability to talk or even know how to respond, eyes going wide at the sudden mention of that whole fight because what huh what?

Red didn't realize just how good this felt. Having both boys beside her and encompassed in their warmth. Though she does give Jay a bit of a smirk," I hope you realize that you've lost your hoodie, mister." However, at the mention of Gwynne she resists the urge to growl," No one is dating that bitch. She's a single whore now. She can go find somewhere else to play. Outside of us and our friends."

She bites her bottom lip," You know..." Actually, she goes quiet for a moment," It's up to you two how this plays out. I know how I'd like it to, but I'd want you both on board with it too."

Ronny was the first to make a move about how he wanted to proceed, perhaps not being as bold as he wanted to be, but moving to kiss her cheek, smiling a little as he nuzzled close to her side. A kiss in general from him was a sign he would be ready for a relationship or whatever the two of them would be.

Jay, meanwhile, waited for that to be the situation and chuckled "As long's you're both comfortable with it." He put an arm around Reds waist as he spoke.

She smiles at the kiss to her cheek and leans into both of them, especially when Jay wraps an arm around her waist. "I'm comfortable with it. What about you, Ronny? You okay with it being the three of us against the world?" Her tone is teasing but he'd know what she meant. Was he okay with the three of them being a trio, in a relationship with one another. "I'll have to find something of yours too because I've got Jay's hoodie."

Ronny gave a small smile and nodded "I'm okay with it, yes." He blinked, though, trying to think of what she could possibly grab. "We can go back to my apartment and look for something there?" It was an innocent idea, honestly. Nevermind Jay let a bit of a huff of a laugh because of implications most guys would have with 'Well we could go back to my place'.

Red tries not to laugh when Ronny suddenly says something about going back to his place. "We could do that. Besides, we have to make sure that the bitch gets her things out anyway. Besides, it'll give us a place where we can sit and curl up properly together. Maybe even watch a movie." Whether or not it actually got watched or not was a whole other story.

Well the boy's precious, after all. He nodded though "Let's go then?" Jay nodded, seeing it as a good idea as he chose to be the first to get up, extending his hands to help them both up off the ground. "We took my car, by the way." Jay gave a bit of a shrug. His car was a Jeep, and he wasn't quite sure if that mattered to Red.

She gives a mock grumble at having Jay's warmth taken from her and the idea of getting up. Though she does take his hand and stands, brushing herself off. Then grabs her notebook and bag," Then to the jeep!" It's said with a bit of a laugh because yes... she's making fun of it. Though she wasn't bothered by it. In fact, she actually liked Jay's jeep.

Ronny took the help up as well, and followed to the Jeep. He'd been in it once so far, but he liked it. It only took a few minutes to get to the car, and Jay stood at the side of the car, unsure of who wanted to go to the front seat, if either of them, but would at least get the back door opened, putting his hand on the front passengers door handle in case either of them showed interest in sitting up front.

When they do get to the jeep, she looks over at Ronny," You want to sit up front with Jay?" After all, she didn't care who sat where. Then again, it all depended on where the other wanted them as well. She'd let Ronny sit up front if that's what he wanted to do though. Besides, sitting in the back would probably give her a chance to nap on the way there. All the adrenaline from nearly losing it getting to her.

"It doesn't matter to me" Ronny gave a soft smile

"You can both sit in the back and relax, if you wanted. It'll take a bit before we get there, anyway." Jay shrugged, leaning against the car a bit for the moment.

"We do that and I'm bound to fall asleep," she says with a bit of a grin. Then again, all of that adrenaline and that was bound to happen. "Come on, lets just get out of here and get back to Ronny's." Red leans over and kisses Jay's cheek before taking Ronny's hand in her own, but stops. She'd never really paid attention to the tattoo on the hare's finger before and raises a brow trying not to smile too much but fails," Really?"

"You deserve it" Both boys spoke in unison, briefly looking at each other in surprise, but smiling. Jay then raises an eyebrow at the questioning to Ronny, seeing him give a sheepish smile.

"It's one of the first things that I did when I turned 18." It was a goal of his for years, after all. He smiled softly, giving a bit of a shrug.

"Anyone wanna fill me in?" There was a chuckle, things seeming to be decided on for who was going where, so he moved to the drivers side of the car, climbing in as he waited for the other two to get in and say they were set.

She can't help but grin at the idea that Ronny got a tattoo of their ring and shakes her head. Once they're all in the jeep and she's resting against the hare, covering up a yawn she looks toward the driver's seat. "We were about nine or ten and wanted things to be perfect. We'd been having playdates forever. But this one particular time we decided that we were going to be together forever. Had the toy machine rings and everything. That was the day that we got fake married. I still have my fake ring but it only fits on my pinky finger now. It's why it's at home in my jewelry box. I don't want to lose it."

Red can't stop the second yawn and closes her eyes just listening to Ronny's heartbeat," I was thinking about turning it into a necklace. Kind of an always there reminder."
