Etiquette

“Look, I don’t think you understood my meanings” he announced, firmly but quietly, addressing Phi.and Molly.
"Oh come on, Alex-" Phi began.
Suddenly angry, he snapped his gaze at her.
“Well there’s nothing wrong with knocking boots anyway. It’s healthy!”

And he stormed off, devoid of love and breakfast.

Plisken looked up from something he’d been engrossed in reading.
“Not more drama?” He shook his head “It’s like a rubbish soap opera around here.”

“I’m very sorry about Mr Solvay’s behaviour, Dr Black” Seymour apologised to a somewhat dazed looking Jade “I do worry about that boy’s mental capacity sometimes.”

“Ain’t a boy!” Came Alex's angry voice, echoing back through the refectory as he blundered out through the door.

Jaxx and Evelina watched silently as the crew picked on Alex before his outburst and departure. Jaxx just stared at them as he slowly ate his vegetable tacos. Evelina leaned over to Jaxx and whispered, "What are you looking at Jaxx?" Jaxx whispered back, "Humans are funny Eve babe." Evelina asked, "Yeah I guess, but what do you mean? Jaxx giggled as he whispered, "I think the Alex dude has a crush on Doc JB." Evelina looked at Jaxx funny and whispered, "How did you come up with that answer?"

Jaxx whispered, "His hands were shaking." Evelina was a bit confused as she whispered, "It's prolly from his hangover. He looks like he has been binging all night." Jaxx shook his head as he whispered, "They only shook when he looked at Doc JB." Evelina was now confused as she whispered, "You figured that out by shaking hands? Maybe he was just embarrassed for being a perv." Jaxx blushed as he smiled at Evelina and whispered, "Cause Eve babe you make my hands shake." Evelina softly said, "Ahhhhh. Your so sweet." Then Evelina leaned her head on Jaxx's right shoulder and held his arm.

Seymour looked at Jaxx and said, "Would it kill you use some table manners Mr. Jaxx and Miss Stone?" Jaxx smiled at Seymour as he said, "Sorry Bro but I like don't remember that stuff." Seymour put his hands on his flustered face as he muttered, "Why me? Why me?" Dr. Black tried to changed the subject as she asked, "Uh Jaxx how are your wounds doing today?" Jaxx answered, "They were like totally sore and stiff this mornin Doc, but like now that I am movin again they are not so bad." Dr. Black smiled as she said, "Excellent. Let me know if you have any complications." Jaxx nodded as he said, "Will do Doc. Oh and thanks for the awesome sticker." Dr. Black nodded as she said, "My pleasure."

Jaxx finished off his tacos as the crew ate their breakfast. Everyone ignored Seymour as he pleaded with them to show proper etiquette at the table.
