"Aw, yes." In a step and a half he's on Jack's side of the room, digging for the poptart in the box like it's made of gold. The package is unopened til he tears into the foil.
"Want the other one?" Mac asks, holding up the revealed pastries.

He was just gonna let Mac have them but since he offered. " Yeah, give it here." He ceases his tape search to reach for a poptart.

It's pretty stupid if they both starve. Mac munches on the dry thing with great relish, finishing it off in very few hasty bites.
"...Hey." He pulls the tape dispenser out of the same box and holds that up, too.

He stops mid chew the glare at the tape dispenser and holds a hand out for that too. Swallow. "Thanks."

"Mhm." Mac climbs to his feet after a moment and finishes sorting what he can. His desk could hardly be described as properly equipped for a student; he has a couple pencils, a pen, a highlighter that he isn't even sure works anymore, and a half a legal pad.
"Fuck, man," he comments, dragging his butt back onto his bed. "School." It's something he thought he'd left behind a long time ago.

He looks over thoughtfully from hanging a poster of a girl with a surfboard. "But it's not gonna be like real school right?" Fuck, he barely passed that shit.

He shrugs, discomfort weighing on his shoulders. "I dunno."
Mac drags his knees up to his chest, digging absently with one hand at the blanket on his bed. "Hope not."

"hmmn." He tapes the last corner up quickly and drops the tape roll, turning to vault himself across to the other bed. He just barely makes it, field grabbing at Mac for balance.

"--Hey!" He could have turned his field right back at Jack, landing him on his ass, but unfortunately Mac thinks of that a little too late, more worried about ducking quickly enough so as not to get a faceful of his best friend.
"Crazy son of a bitch." Mac's hand reaches up to try and get a grip on some part of Jack's head or shoulders, to push him off manually.

Mac won't have trouble getting him off, he doesn't want to be attached anyway! "Sorry, sorry! I misjudged that." He scoots himself up to be sitting in the same way Mac was before the minor collision. He's smiling...he thought it was funny.

"Moron."
He's smiling, too, but it's halfway between fond and his clear opinion that Jack's at least a little crazy. Mac returns to his original position but leaves off picking at his bedspread. "Y'know."
He glances around the room, at the handbooks and the furniture and out the window, where he can see the edge of a large grass field that might be the training area.
"Much as I'm not sure we're ready for this place..." His eyes settle back on Jack, grin starting to form back up. "I'm pretty sure they're even less ready for us."

Mac had been looking a little down so obviously he had to act like an idiot to cheer him up. " Damn straight they aren't, if we gotta stay here, let's make it fun huh?"

If there's any one thing Jack may be particularly good at, cheering Mac up is definitely high on the list of contenders.
"There's gotta be fun things we can do without actually breaking any rules, right?"

"Of course, if I got away with shit in front of two heroes and a camera crew, I think we'll manage here. And I suppose, the girls here won't be afraid?"

Mac gets a funny, slow-realization look on his face. "Dude, I didn't even think of that." Finally, their fate is starting to look pretty good all on its own, as opposed to just compared to going to jail.
His grin's growing wider. "Think NEXT girls have more fun?"
