Spider-Man has posed:
Peter Parker, Chemistry teacher, all around lazy bug man, and lounging at the pool upon one of the sunchairs. His ankles are crossed and he's wearing a T-shirt that reads: If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate with a picture of a test tube with a green solvent at the base. He's a Mets cap turned around backwards, a pair of shades on his face, and cargo-shorts. There might be a drink nearby as well, maybe it's not alcoholic! MAYBE... it could happen.

Jubilee has posed:
Along wanders a barefoot Jubilee, carrying in a giant rubber ducky to end all rubber duckies. She's weaing a t-shirt and red bikini bottoms, tied on the hips, with white polka dots. Presumably, there is a top beneath that shirt, too. Her hair is twisted into twin pigtail buns atop her head.

She totes the giant ducky to the edge of the pool and unceremoniously tosses it into the water, making a splash, but not a big one. The ducky floats. Her shirt reads "Talk Nerdy To Me."

Spider-Man has posed:
Pete lifts his glasses with his index finger when he feels someone trotting down the path towards the pool and spies none other than Jubilation with her rubber ducky and totally awesome t-shirt. A little smirk settles onto his face, the lightest hint of unshaved stubble present on his jaw as he let's the glasses fall back into place by removing his finger.

"JUBES!" He shouts dramatically from where he's lounging, "You're blocking the sun with that damn thing.. move already, I'm trying to get a rockin' base coat tan over here..."

Jubilee has posed:
"Peeeeeeter!!" Jubilee seems to have only just now noticed Peter. She gives the ducky a shove across the water, out of his sun, and she turns back to him. "Tryin' to get all the girls? You might wanna cool it on the tan. You know, skin cancer is a thing." She shrugs. "Besides, you better leave SOME girls for everyone else, otherwise you'll snatch 'em all up and every male in the X-Mansion will be breathin' down your neck."

Spider-Man has posed:
"Nah, I've already got my girl." Peter says with his hands up in a defensive pat of the air, "Besides... what kind of crackpot teacher do you think I am? Trying to score all the ladies." His hand flips flampently and settles back on his stomach, eblows propped up on the arms of his sunchair. His head is back a little so the sun can cook his neck. He's a real white dude. They don't tan. They burn.

Jubilee has posed:
"Yeaaaaah you're gonna be a crispy critter. Tan isn't in your vocabulary, I'm afraid. Your vocabulary is stuff more like...ecru." Jubilee gigglesnorts, and slaps a hand over her nose and mouth, flushing pink. "You did NOT hear that. I don't SNORT."

Spider-Man has posed:
"You snorted." Peter immediately informs her with a mock laughter complete with slight belly rumbling and a hand upon said rumble belly, one finger pointed out at her. "I'm literally telling everyone... where's my phone." Shifting around to find it, as if he's serious, which he MIGHT BE... Who can tell?!

Jubilee has posed:
"I did NOT snort," Jubilee blatantly lies. She strips off her t-shirt, and much to Peter's relief, she actually IS wearing that bikini top beneath it. "Besides, nobody would believe you. You'd be all 'Hey I was out there tanning and Jubilee snorted.' And they would be all 'HAHAHAH no you were NOT tanning. You were burning.' Jubilee takes a big jump and lands on the duckie, bobbing dangerously like a bullrider, until she settles in on the ducky. "So there."

Spider-Man has posed:
"I'm a respected member of the mansion community, I'll have you know." Peter says jovially from his lounging position far away from the actual water because spiders don't like water. There's a song about it. Look it up. "If I say you snorted, maybe I'll have video proof? Maybe I've installed spy cameras in these glasses, hmmm? Have you even considered that this might be a reality television show?" Laughing quietly at Jubilee leaping out onto the ducky, "Nerd."

Jubilee has posed:
"Oh you are a VERY respected member of the mansion community," Jubilee agrees. "I totally believe that." Jubilee flails slightly, trying to reach down to the water to splash it a little. An attempt at turning the ducky around so that she can see Peter again. "I also totally believe you're videoing this right now so you can watch me in a swimsuit later. On a huge ducky," she flails harder in frustration, finally starting to turn around toward him. "Not snorting."

Spider-Man has posed:
"Hardly." Peter SNORTS back at Jubes, "As many people walk around here half naked, I doubt very seriously I need video evidence of it." He's looking up at the sky, mostly, letting the sun bathe down across his face in a way that is definitely going to leave a mark... probably a painful one at that. "How you been, Jubes? Keeping yourself out of trouble?"

Jubilee has posed:
"Eh, mostly. Lots of issues with this Hook crap though," she replies, bobbing ridiculously on the duck. "We took down the massage parlor where some of the girls were being made to work. And we've cleaned out some Hook houses here and there. That keeps me busy. What about you? What keeps Peter busy?

Spider-Man has posed:
"Hook? Wait I read about that... crazy new drug right? Doug was shot over it..." Pete says with a deep frown and his legs dropping down on either side of the sunchair when he sits up to look at Jubes floating in the pool from behind his shades. "Sounds like you guys have been busy beavers..." What keeps you busy Peter.. "Eh.. lesson plans? I have like thirty jobs? Juggling a new social life I'm kind of happy about... you know... normal people shit." Because he's TOTALLY normal guys. Totally mister normal every day guy.

Yup.

Jubilee has posed:
"Thirty jobs is a LOT of jobs," Jubilee replies. "But you'renot some normal guy," she adds, noting with dismay and a little flail that the water has spun her just enough that she can't look directly at Peter when she talks to him. She flails a hand in the water a little, putting some spin on the duck. In the wrong direction. "Dammit I can't SEE you..."

Spider-Man has posed:
"The water gods are fickle indeed." Peter assures Jubes with a smirk, "Would you like a full thesis on exactly how water molecules against air filled rubber flotation devices create a whirl wind efect when those molecules are displaced by... say... hand trying to splace a chemsitry teacher?" Smug ass over here with his big smart people words. "I am too normal. Just a regular joe. Who teaches chemsitry... to mutants." Kicking his feet back up with his muscular arms laced back behind his neck, "In a mansion owned by the most eccentric bald man since Dr. No."
