Jaime's cell phone is more or less plugged riiiight into his brain, so he tends to pick up like 99% of the time! If not, however...
"Hey, Jaime here! Leave a message, and I'll get back to you ASAP."

--Who said 'no homo' to you?
voice forever
no subject
[He sounds a little pained that these twelve year old brats are going full no-homo when they're brought flowers with broken bones... though that probably means they're not too scared of them, right? Right??]
Did Killua figure out what it meant before saying it?
no subject
No. He said he already knew what it meant but I don't think he does. He keeps using it instead of "that's cool" and stuff.
no subject
Okay, to explain this we gotta back up a bit. Um... you obviously know that some boys like boys, and some girls like boys, right? Like, romantically?
no subject
[Wait.
Wait.
Oh my god.]-Oh. That's what "homo" means?
no subject
[Does he have to explain homophobia to this little kid from another world? He probably should.]
But don't call them homo, 'cause it's rude. See, I don't know what it's like where you're from, but here - and where I'm from - some people think that boys liking boys and girls liking girls is wrong.
this is like an afternoon special kill me
it basically is an afternoon special i'm sorry for how unbearably wholesome he is
[He sounds immensely relieved that he doesn't have to explain to Gon why being gay isn't a bad thing, because he's totally not equipped for that.]
People suck sometimes. That's one of the ways some of them suck. [Sorry, Gon. You're not going to get the religious explanation out of him, because this Catholic kid doesn't feel like bending over backwards to talk about the Bible, but different parts of the Bible, and oh no, he hasn't been to Church in half a year.]
So when they say no homo, that's like - them trying to say that they don't like boys, 'cause they think it's a bad thing. You guys are probably better off not hanging out with them.
no subject
[So blunt.] I guess that's why everyone seemed happy when we knocked them out. I thought that was kind of weird.
[There's a brief pause.]
I'm gonna have to tell Killua.
no subject
[That may be uncharitable, knowing that these kids are all of twelve years old and have been raised on a steady diet of their parents' thinking, but he's not about to tell Gon and Killua to go out of their way to reform them.]
What're you gonna tell him?
[He's asking mostly because he's wondering if he should talk to Killua, just in case Gon's explanation of it errs on the side of simplicity.]
no subject
To stop saying it, I guess. He'll be embarrassed, but I think he'll do it. If not, I'll just tell him to talk to you. He trusts you.
no subject
Yeah, I know. I'm glad he does. Just tell him to come talk to me if he has any questions about why he shouldn't say that or anything else, okay? You too, obviously, but you're already doing it. I'm lucky enough to be from a world that's pretty similar to this one.
no subject
[He's about to hang up when a question occurs to him. Pausing, he considers asking it before deciding to go ahead.]
... Do you ever miss it? Your home, I mean.
no subject
[Why lie about it? He doesn't hate it here, but he misses home. He misses it every day.]
I think a little homesickness is what you'd expect outta being brought here, though. Why, do you miss your home?
no subject
You should tell me about your world sometime, Jaime. Maybe it'll help you miss it less.
no subject
[He'd be okay living somewhere else as long as he had the people who are important to him by his side - but he wouldn't want them here.]
Thanks, Gon - I might do just that. [It won't make him miss them any less, but he's always putting his nose into other people's business in their own worlds. He should return the favour every now and again.]
Is there anything you wanted to know?
no subject
Where do you live? Not the city or anything-I won't know about that. Can you tell me what it looks like?
