Jason was serious though but he didn't realize what he was specifically doing to Ash.

"Are you sure yet? I still need to change my jeans."

"Nope! I'm not sure until you say You feel happy or somethin'." He then hugged Ash with his arms around his neck and pulling him down into a tighter hug.

"When was the last time I said that I felt happy? Never, so why do you expect it now?"

That stung and Jason wince,and let Ash go but he kept on that fake grin,rubbing the back of his neck a bit. "Sorry.Heh,you got a point."

Ash could easily tell the fake from the real. "I'm sorry, I just..." Can't be happy with Puck contending for your love, he thought. "I just never really express my feelings."

"Nah nah,it's alright.Really." He said,patting Ash's shoulder but it wasn't full hearted. He didn't drop the fake smile and just winked like that first time in the alley...in that alley...it hadn't even been his real self then either. "I guess this emotional dork can teach ya' then."

"Well then teach me. Right now. But that also means that you can't fake it."

Jason's scales washed with confusion for a moment before fading gently to lavender. "So right now? Well...ih. So just expressing,you mostly do what you feel like doing or what feels right to you.Like,let's say that I was standing next to my semi-twin Shade. I would be angry,and therefore I'd probably ram my stinger up the back of his head,say sorry and then rip it out.Or just kill him slowly while apologizing. So,let's try to put you into a scenario so you could understand what you would do.Sorta like,if your happy,smile or ... well let it be expressed,like let the joy inside come out."

He nodded, showing that he understood. "All right."
