Jack nuzzled into Jamie.
"So what do you want to do now?"
"I donno... kinda hard to think when you do that." Jamie murmured, flushing the tiniest bit.
"I know." Jack nuzzled more to pleasure Jamie a little.
"How about an old game from my days? If I still remember it's similar to that of tag." Jamie flushed a little more.
"A game?" He muttered, he really couldn't think straight when Jack did that...
"I don't know... either that or kick the can." He chuckled, still nuzzling Jamie; sending a puff of air on his neck. Jamie felt a shiver go through him at the bit of air... Oh that felt nice... He didn't respond to Jack, his brain wasn't working properly anymore and even if it was he couldn't be sure his tongue would let him form any intelligible words for a response. Jack stopped nuzzling him.
"Maybe we could play match; you try to match my frost drawings while I try to match yours." Jack says, sending puffs of air along Jamie's neck as he talked. Jamie tried to get his mouth to work... he really did. All he managed though was to look like a fish and he clamped his mouth shut after a while, flushing.
"What's wrong?" Jack shifted to look at Jamie, utterly confused as he really didn't know what was making Jamie flush so crimsonly. Jamie tried to get his mouth to work again, but failing that he decided to try something else and send over the bond the impression that nothing was actually wrong, but that the feel of Jack's breadth was making it impossible to think of anything outside the sensation itself.
"Oh." Jack blushed blue and let go of Jamie for the moment.
"Sorry, never thought I had an effect like that on you." He created an orb of ice to mess with. Jamie rubbed one arm, muttering after a moment.
"Why would you need to be sorry about that of all things?" Jack wasn't sure how to answer as he juggled three ice balls, they became one after a moment and then turned into three when Jack rotated them. He tossed one to Jamie, it turned into a bubble. Jamie caught it, sending his frost along it to keep it from popping before copying Jack's tricks... if not quite as smoothly. Jack laughed.
"It's all in the illusion Jamie." The ice ball Jamie was trying to play with popped at Jack's will, sparkling frost into the air and returned to Jack as he pulled it from behind Jamie's ear.
"Your eyes can be deceived." Jamie's eyes widened a little with wonder and awe.
"How'd you do that?" Jack smiled.
"IT's the power of your will over something, such as a simple ball; you can trick someone as easily as one, two, three." The ice ball reappeared in Jamie's hand as if it had never exploded into frost. Jamie stared at it. Wondering if he could do something like that... well, maybe eventually... It seemed too complicated right now and he was still just trying to manage frost. Jack smiled and the balls all returned to one and he handed it to Jamie.
"Practice makes perfect Jamie." Jack told him as he stood up, bad idea as he yelped, his leg throbbing in pain. Jamie nodded though he glanced up from the ball up at Jack at the yelp.
"You okay?" Jack tried to put on a mask.
"I'm fine." His leg throbbed in more pain as it still hurt from the fall.
"Alright."
Jamie turned his attention to the frost ball in his hand, studying or seeming to. Jack lay back on the bed, closing his eyes; tears seemed to fall, frozen tears made a soft clink sound as the pain was intense enough to cause tears. Jamie said nothing on it. What could he say after all? There was a lot of things he wished he could do, that he just... couldn't. Even being a spirit hadn't allowed him the ability to do the things his heart desired... Yeah, it had ensured he could always be with Jack, but that was mostly it. Jack hugged Jamie.
"We could draw." Jack said after a moment, trying to push the pain away with Jamie nearby. He sniffed Jamie's minty hair.
"You smell great." Jamie glanced up from the frost ball with a slight smile, trying not to flush at the last comment.
"Sounds like a good idea." Jack smiled and went in search of paper. Jamie waited for Jack to return, thinking about he will draw... several things come to mind. Jack returned with paper and pencils for them. Jamie smiled, finally having settled on what he wanted to draw. He hadn't drawn in a while. Jack drew a dinosaur and cavemen as well as flowers and scribbly stick figures. As Jack was drawing he felt an electric shock jolt through him. Jamie began to slowly sketch out what he had in mind. It was what he remembered from the first year he and Jack had become friends. It wasn't professional quality, but it was a moment that he'd always remember... the moment that Jack had become a Guardian. Jack started to sketch Jamie as he was drawing, it was really good in terms of artistic taste, but to Jack it looked awful. Jamie didn't notice as he slowly worked to add as much detail to his sketch of Jack. After all... that was what he'd remembered in most detail... was Jack. He hadn't been sure why before, but now he knew. It had made everything make sense once he'd realized that he'd felt something for Jack that was more than friendship. Jack huffed at a second jolt of electricity, unaware it was Gale and Jakoul's way of messing with him. Jamie noticed the second time and sent a jolt of light-laced ice at the two without too much thought, his subconscious mind working while his conscious mind only registered a feeling of unease even as he worked on his sketch. Jack felt much better when the two were forced back, adding color next to the pictures he'd drawn. Jamie paused in his drawing to stretch a moment. He looked at his drawing, it seemed to be missing something... Jack smiled and colored in everything, leaving no white. After a moment Jamie realized he hadn't added himself to the picture and proceeded to do so carefully. Jack chose a new sheet and began to draw a pony and a deer he'd seen earlier. Once Jamie's done he set the sketch aside, not bothering to add color because he didn't think anyone had crayons to accurately depict the colors that he'd seen that day. He picked up a new piece of paper and closed his eyes a moment, searching for something in his mind before he began to sketch again. Jack finished his drawings, his stomach growled hungrily for food. Jamie didn't notice that he was starting to get hungry as he was focused on drawing Jack as he once remembered. It had been a rare moment and he hadn't fully forgotten that moment, it had been after a snowball war with the other kids; the day hadn't ended just yet, but apparently Jack had been tired though he'd argued against it. Jamie had talked with Jack for a while, but after a lack of response he'd looked up and saw that Jack had dropped off to sleep and that was what he was drawing now. Jack continued drawing, though his stomach growled every once and awhile almost like it was saying 'feed me now.' Jamie noticed and set the pencil down, the drawing was half finished so that it looked like the tree he'd drawn Jack sleeping in was floating in the middle of the page while he headed for the kitchen. It wasn't long before the smell of food cooking came from the kitchen. Jack smelled the food, only making his stomach more pained in hunger. After several minutes Jamie came back with some fried ham sandwiches for the two of them. He set one in front of Jack before settling down to eat his. Jack ate it.
"It's delicious Jamie." He was in awe at Jamie's cooking skills, even for a fried ham sandwich. Jamie smiled a little, please that Jack enjoyed it as he munched on his own sandwich.
Jack finished his before Jamie, laying back on the bed, smiling in contentment. Once he'd finished his, Jamie took the plates back to the kitchen for cleaning, but left the cleaning for a little later as he returned to the unfinished drawing. Jack felt tired, like he'd been running around though he hadn't done much of anything today. He tried standing up only to hiss out in pain, his leg was more than cut up. He thought maybe he'd done worse to it.
"Jamie, I think my leg's broken." Jamie winced a little.
"We should go back to the pole then. I don't know enough to properly deal with a broken bone let alone have the right bandages." Leaving the things where they were, Jamie shift to pick Jack up after opening a window and carried Jack out. Jack squirmed slightly in his grip when Jamie accidently bumped his leg on the way out.
"It hurts." Jack whined a little.
"Sorry... I know it does." He took to the air and headed off to the North Pole; he used the moon skylight to enter the workshop when they arrived, calling out when he saw the Guardian of Wonder inspecting some new Barbie dolls.
"North!" The Guardian looked up.
"Jack! Jamie! Iz good seeing you!" He beamed at them until he realized something was wrong when Jamie floated above the crowd of the Guardian and yetis, his smile faded.
"What is being wrong?" Jamie hovered before him a few feet over the large gaping center.
"Jack thinks he broke his leg. I don't know enough to help." North nodded a little.
"Iz not big problem. Follow me." Jamie followed North, keeping above the heads of the yetis as he did so until they got to the infirmary. Jack whined, his leg hurt badly; he whimpered as North pulled up the pant leg to inspect it only to find a big, purple, bloody mess. Jamie watched as North barked orders in yetish to a yeti who got him a needle and he stuck Jack with it before either could wince. The serum numbed Jack after a while and North and the yeti worked to set the bone and get it wrapped up. Jack shook a little in fear as they set the bone, the serum didn't work exactly as planned... The serum wasn't just a painkiller, it was meant to attract magic to the bone as well so that it would heal sooner. Unfortunately it was a little too strong of a dosage. Jack wince and whimpered, biting down harshly on one sleeve.
"Uh... North... are you sure about this?"
"Of course! Serum redirect magic to... uh oh..." The serum had focused too much of the magic and it not only healed the bone completely it also sent ice powers icing everything around Jack.
"Oh dear..." North muttered as he backed away from the ice.
"It hurts... why am I so energized?! What the hell is wrong with me?!" Each breath Jack took made the area colder and more frozen. Jamie worked to counteract the magic.
"I think it was too strong of a dose..." North said and Jamie nodded. Jack whined, the power was hurting him more than he liked.
"What do we do about this?" Jamie asked.
