""Oi! Homebodies! Make yourselves presentable! You're going out!""
"Buzz off, Walker," grumbles Logan, slouching deeper into the sofa cushions.
Jackson grunts.
Jamie leans over the back of the couch between them, drawls, "Ohhh, riiiiight. Tonight's /Sunshiney Rainbow Friends and your little slumber party with the Makeout Club. Ye wouldn't wanna miss that, now." Pushes off. "Sorry to bother you; I'll cancel the reservations."
Logan and Jackson exchange glances, sigh, and heave themselves off the sofa.
Jackson trudges—
""Put on shirts with collars~!""
Logan stops mid-step, doubles back.
""You want to blend in, right?""
Jackson shuts himself in his room.
Logan stomps by, his door slams. 
[A smoke-grey shirts, his] favourite lightweight heather green jumper, a tooth-brushing, and having poked his hair more or less into shape later, Jackson drags himself back to the common area, flops on the [couch.
Logan drags an eye over him, wrinkles his nose. "You look like a teacher."
Jackson sniffs. "You look like an undertaker in all that black."]
Jamie strolls up, wolf-whistles. "Always forget how well you two clean up."
Logan makes an appropriately obscene gesture.
"Best behaviour, boys: no repeat of the last time we let you out without my supervision."
Jackson frowns. "You're not coming?"
"I have another commitment," says Jamie, then smirks—
Jackson checks Logan in his peripheral; Logan looks as suspicious as Jackson feels. 
—"Let's get going." Bows them toward the door.
Out they go.
