I DON'T own ROTG…but if I did…..*evil grin*

Ok, due to the overwhelming response, I am writing the sequel to Video Game therapy. This will be Jamie and Jack making up, with a dash of Bunny in the background.

The lucky winner of the one shot request is the guest reviewer Frostfan! As I said, the rules apply, so here is a recap of what I want you guys to keep in mind…

I do not do slash(boyxboy or girlxgirl), it is a personal religious conviction of mine, and I would ask that you please respect that.

I prefer not to do femJack, or any other gender bending, it just doesn't appease my muse, and I'm unable to write it.

Try not to request anything too sadistic. I am a fan of angst, but I do not want my fics to get too dark. I'm naturally a happy positive person, and my stories tend to follow suit.

I don't cuss, and neither do my characters. No, I'm not a child, I'm actually an adult, but I tend to lose respect for a person when they cuss. Humans are intelligent, and our vocabulary should convey that.

Fluff is a MUST! I'm addicted to fluff! Crying, hurt/comfort, angry outbursts that lead to more crying…it's my candy.

Congratulations Frostfan, please put your one shot request in my PM box, or place it in your next review. For everyone who missed out you still have a chance next time, every 100 reviews one lucky reviewer gets to have their very own one shot, and the only way to get that is to KEEP REVIEWING!

So here it is, Video game therapy part 2!

"Bunny, all of a sudden I'm getting second thoughts."

Aster sighed. This statement was not as sudden as Jack claimed; he had been fighting against Jack since they set off. Turning around, he looked at the boy who looking slightly green "Frostbite" the rabbit said with a stern look "You said back at the Pole that you wanted to apologize to Jamie and see about patching things up."

"Yeah, I know" Jack gulped his hands twirling his staff nervously "but Jamie was really mad, and I mean really mad. What if he doesn't want to accept my apology?"

"Jack" Bunny groaned "for the fifty millionth time, Jamie is your friend. He said some things that he probably already regrets in a highly emotional situation, and I'm sure he will be happy to know that you aren't angry at him."

"But what if I am… still mad, that is, is that bad?"

That question stopped the rabbit in his tracks and made him turn around to scrutinize the winter spirit who was currently shuffling uncomfortably, one toe drawing circles in the snow. Dragging one paw down his face, the Pooka heaved a sigh.

"Look Snowflake," he said gently "it isn't wrong to be angry and hurt, especially when it was a trusted friend who said the thing that hurt you, but it's up to you to decide whether or not you want to forgive Jamie and move on. So, do you?"

"Yeah…" Jack mumbled "But what if he doesn't want to be my friend anymore?"

Bunny raised a tolerantly amused eyebrow before striding forward with a huff. Placing one strong paw between Jack's shoulder blades and began pushing the winter sprite through the trees. Jack planted his feet, pushing against Bunny as piles of snow built up around his legs, trying to delay what was going to become the inevitable

"Wait!" the boy yelped "I'm not ready! I still need a few minutes! Come on Bunny…STOP!"

"Nah Kid," the rabbit chuckled "Ya got your time ya needed to compose yourself, an I'll be old and grey before you're ready to go on your own, so off ya pop."

"No!" Jack whined "Not 'off I pop', I don't wanna go yet! Besides, Jamie's probably still mad, and I don't wanna make things worse! Why don't we go back to the pole and I can beat you at JakX again?"

"I beat YOU" Bunny corrected "Now get ya tail in gear, or I'll kick it!"

Wide indignant eyes glared at his adopted older brother, and then finally Jack let out a sigh of resignation "Fine" he grumbled "but if it all falls apart, and Jamie hates my guts, I'm blaming you!"

Bunny let out a long and loud guffaw, highly doubting that such a circumstance would occur "Good luck!" he called as he waved with one exuberant paw.

Jack walked away, Bunny's figure growing smaller and smaller behind him "Yeah" he muttered "Because I'm gonna need it."

Slowly the winter spirit walked down the street, his staff dragging along the ground, his face glaring at the snow as he kicked it forlornly. He felt a burning in his gut as he contemplated what he should say to Jamie, and the back of his head buzzed with anxiety over the situation he was walking into. He hoped that Jamie was no longer angry at him, but he also felt confusion over the fact that he even blew up at him for trying to comfort him. He knew that technically he had done nothing wrong and that only made his confusion worse. What was he supposed to say? 'I'm sorry for being a concerned friend who only wanted to make his friend feel better'? Yeah, that was going to go over well.

Jack sighed, he hated feeling like this, and he didn't know how to deal with it. He just hoped that Jamie didn't kick him out as soon as he saw him. All too soon, the winter sprite reached Jamie's home, and he heaved a groan at the inevitable battle that surely lay ahead. Jack growled as the wind picked him up and deposited him on the roof of the house, obviously the element was siding with Bunny on this one, and the winter sprite didn't know whether to feel grateful for the two of them or be annoyed at them pushing him into patching things up with Jamie. Either way, he was not looking forward to this conversation with his first believer.

Sneaking through the unlocked window, Jack was slightly amused to find his friend roughly in the same state he had been in back at the Pole. IPod blaring hard metal into his ears, the boy was currently engrossed in the same combat racing game that the winter sprite had been playing against Aster. Taking a deep breath, and giving himself a mental kick in the pants; Jack strolled over to the human teen in as casual a way that he could manage.

Taking a seat, the winter teen fiddled with the second controller, both boys remaining silent as Jamie finished out his race by blowing up all the cars in front of him. Just as the replay screen went up, Jack quickly pressed the back option and selected a two player game. Jamie merely grunted as Jack chose the racetrack, and then before they knew it, the game had started. Both boys had their tongues sticking out between clenched teeth as they focused on maintaining the lead. Sometimes Jack would win, sometimes Jamie, but neither spoke a word for at least an hour about why Jack was there in the first place. Finally the winter spirit peeked out from under his long eyelashes, biting his bottom lip nervously, and spoke in a tremulous voice.

"Did you know that Bunny plays video games?"

Jamie coughed, feigning casual conversation "Oh yeah?"

"Uh huh…" Jack grunted.

"He any good?"

"He thinks he is" Jack snickered "but I let him win."

"Yeah" Jamie murmured "he would be pretty obnoxious if you beat him."

"No kidding!" Jack cast a huge grin at Jamie, then quickly remembered that they were supposed to be fighting and once again turned back to the game.

"So…" Jamie said awkwardly.

"So…" Jack said, unfortunately at the same moment.

Both looked at each other and wilted, their attention on decorating the cars currently spinning on the screen. Jack decorated his with his usual blue and silver, while Jamie went for a green and black motif. Once again, the cars were on the racetrack, and they were racing inside an ancient temple ruin that was slowly sinking into a lake of lava. Both were rounding a bend when suddenly Jamie's car spun out of control knocking Jack's car into the lava. The winter sprite winced at the flames surrounding his car, and then sent a comical pout at his friend.

"Thanks man" he groaned "way to throw me under the bus!"

"That's not what I did!" Jamie protested "I lost control of my car and knocked you out of the race on accident, no big deal!"

"Well it's a big deal to me when I'm the one that got destroyed!" Jack shot back barely understanding that they probably weren't talking about cars anymore.

"I didn't mean to hurt you, besides, you're immortal." the human boy shrugged.

"That doesn't mean that I don't feel things like others do!" Jack practically bellowed his eyes darkening with the pain that had previously only been hiding behind the crystal orbs.

"Yeah, I'm a winter spirit," the sprite snapped "but being burned isn't something that I want to experience even as an immortal!"

"Well what do you know about it!" Jamie cried throwing his controller down "it's not like you know what that kind of pain feels like."

"I WAS HUMAN ONCE!"

Jamie jumped back, his brown eyes wide at the agonized cry that ripped itself from the deepest reaches of Jack's soul. The winter spirit stood up, his blue eyes boring holes through his friend, both fists clenched at his sides.

"I was human once…" he repeated softly "and I KNOW what pain feels like! I watched my dad be slaughtered by a British soldier when I was fourteen. The next day, I had to watch my mom scream as she found his body in the front yard, and I had to explain to my sister why he wouldn't wake up. I was the one who had to dig his grave, and I was the one who read the scriptures for his funeral because our pastor had been murdered by the same soldier for preaching in favor of freedom. So don't tell me that I don't know what it feels like to be tossed into a bonfire and have no escape, because you're wrong."

Tears streaked Jamie's cheeks, and as he listened to Jack, he saw that Jack had begun to cry as well. The fourteen year old boy looked at his friend, and bowed his head in guilt and shame. "I'm so sorry" Jamie whispered "I'm sorry that I was cruel, I'm sorry that I said those things without thinking it through, and I'm sorry that I used your past against you."

Jack sighed, one hand wiping his tears as he plopped back down on the ground next to his first believer "Dude" he said in a voice hoarse with emotion "I understand that you are going through a lot of pain, and I know what that feels like, but what hurts is that you won't let me be your friend when I do understand what you are feeling."

Jamie looked up, one hand slowly reaching up before tentatively resting on the winter sprite's thin shoulder "I'm sorry, please forgive me?"

Jack heaved a sigh then cast his mischievous grin at the teen "I already have."

"Good" Jamie sighed before matching Jack grin for grin "So that means you won't take it personally when I show you just how bad you are at video games?"

"Oh puh-leaze!" Jack snorted "Have you already forgotten who I am? Get ready kid, because you haven't even seen what I can do yet!"

"Bring it on!"

Bunny sighed at the conversation, his head shaking slowly as he smiled fondly. Hopping off the roof, and onto the ground, the Pooka took off for the warren fully intent on enjoying a cup of tea and carrot cake while reading a book. Running out of his tunnel, and into his warren, the rabbit sighed in relief that all the chaos had died down. Grabbing his snack, and the book he had yet to finish, Aster collapsed into his favorite armchair and heaved a sigh.

"Teenagers…"
