Jack was gathering laundry and tidying up their hut. It was a common occurrence since he was the only one who did it. He'd long ago accepted that Logan simply didn't care if they lived in chaos. Still, sometimes it would be nice to have some help rather than working while Logan laid sprawled across the furniture. He had finished gathering dirty laundry and started in on the kitchen area, washing dishes and tossing some old fruit when he realized he hadn't told Logan what Scotty had said.

"We're invited to Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow," he said. "Scotty's cooking in the kitchen. Big deal. He invited us both, specifically."

"Huh? Oh, uh, that's cool. We don't have to dress up or anything, right? If I'm stuffing my face, I'd prefer to do it in jeans and a t-shirt," Logan replied, his feet up on the table as he leaned back in his chair and flipped through his magazine.

"Wouldn't kill you to dress up," Jack said. "It's a holiday. It's supposed to be special."

"I just don't see the point. Whatever, I'll wear a button down shirt or something, okay?" Logan replied with a yawn, watching Jack start on the dises, but making no move to get up and help.

"You better look good. You never know who might be there," he replied, focusing on his work. It took a minute before he added, "House might be there with his black eye. You've gotta look better than him."

Date: 2009-11-26 01:04 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
"His what?" Logan asked, putting his magazine down as he gave Jack a confused look. "Who punched House? Not that I'm shocked or anything, but I can't help but wonder who he's pissed off now, you know?"

Date: 2009-11-26 01:24 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
Logan sighed and rolled his eyes. "Of course you did. Jesus, Jack. You always just give him what he wants. Your attention."

Date: 2009-11-26 01:32 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] captainjack.livejournal.com
"I didn't mean to. He came into the kitchen and I didn't even think. I just punched him," he replied defensively.

From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
"Whatever," Logan sighed, picking up his magazine again and shaking his head. He wasn't in the mood to fight about House.

Date: 2009-11-26 01:51 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] captainjack.livejournal.com
"He..." Jack started, then stopped and took a breath. "He said all he did was tell you the truth. According to him, he didn't do anything wrong at all."

Date: 2009-11-26 01:55 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
"Yeah, because it would be so like him to apologize and admit he fucked up," Logan said flatly. "He didn't flat out lie, but he knew what he was implying and he knew what he was doing. He wanted to hurt us. He wanted to hurt us, and he wanted your attention."

From: [identity profile] captainjack.livejournal.com
"Well, he hurt me," he replied darkly. "Is that really what it looks like, Logan? Do people think I beat you?"

Obviously the part where House told him he was only upset because he was afraid that it really did appear that way had some weight to it.

From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
"What? No. No one thinks that," Logan replied calmly. "He's just making you paranoid. ...If anyone ever did think that, I'd set them straight."

Jack sighed and returned to the dishes. His back was tense as he held back. The thought that House could wind him up so much just pissed him off even more. He took his frustration and aggression out on one cup in particular.

"I never hated him until now," he muttered under his breath.

Date: 2009-11-26 02:16 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
"Yeah, well, me either," Logan said quietly. "I used to like the guy- Now... now i don't even think I can look at him."

Because House had known. House knew about the abuse he'd suffered through as a kid, and he'd twisted Logan into believing Jack was really hurting him. He'd led Logan to believe that history was repeating himself.

"I think if we try, we can just avoid him completely. I mean...I think I've talked to Neil maybe twice in the last year, so it can be done," he said.

Date: 2009-11-26 02:41 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
"I'm not changing my life to avoid him. If I see him, I'll ignore him. It's that simple. Now can we talk about something else? I don't want to waist any more breath on him.

Date: 2009-11-26 03:04 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] captainjack.livejournal.com
"Fine," he said tersely. "What do you want to talk about? There's got to be something in that magazine...you've been reading it all day."

From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
"Nothing in here- it's pretty boring actually. I just didn't feel like getting up to get a book," Logan said honestly.

Date: 2009-11-26 03:17 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] captainjack.livejournal.com
"You could have got up and helped me," he pointed out.

"You were doing fine," Logan argued. "Besides, I don't do domestic. I don't see why we can't have maids here. This is why this place needs an economy. You can't get a maid if no one is broke enough to scrub your floors for cash."

Date: 2009-11-26 03:26 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] captainjack.livejournal.com
"Or we could, just throwing this out here, clean up after ourselves," he replied, chucking the wet sponge at Logan. "Because in case you haven't noticed? Around here, I am the maid."

Date: 2009-11-26 03:30 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
"Are you having a woman's liberation moment?" Logan asked, rubbing away water from where the sponge had hit him. "Look, I do stuff around here. I do laundry- sometimes. And i dusted that one time. That counts for something. I don't make you clean, you just like things neat. And seeing as how you were doing it yourself before I moved in, I don't see why it matters if you do it alone now..."

Date: 2009-11-26 03:36 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] captainjack.livejournal.com
"Because now you live here, too," he said. "I can't believe you don't do stuff. I mean, who sis your laundry when you lived by yourself?"

Date: 2009-11-26 03:38 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] echolls-cursed.livejournal.com
"I just washed the stuff I loved and replaced everything else," Logan shrugged. "And whatever, fine, I'll help, okay? ...Next time."
