When you look into the mirror

Jellal was continuing his favorite activity, sitting on a rock and considering new ways in which he was a horrible person. He was in a bit of a self hating block, which was somewhat like a writer's block but slightly different, as it had to do with running out of reasons to hate himself. He was lost in thought.
Suddenly, he felt a tap on his shoulder, and he immediately got up and prepared to cast a spell if it was one of the council's people. He looked into the man's face and stopped. It was a perfect mirror of his own, hell, he had stared his reflection in water while brooding to recognize that ugly mug.
Jellal started at the other Jellal. "Who... Who are you?"
The other Jellal laughed at this. "You seriously don't remember me? I'm you. I'm confused why I'm even here... Call me Siegrain. Did you take a knock to the fucking head or something? This is just fucking great. What the hell are we supposed to do now"
The man looked like Jellal, but he had a different personality. Jellal avoided swearing when possible, but this man, this Siegrain didn't care. He didn't care at all. Jellal ignored the odd feeling in his chest, and simply nodded. He began to notice the man's eyes were so beautiful, and his lips... God, was he seriously examining his own face?
Siegrain smiled slightly, and grabbed Jellal's arms and pulled him off the rock. "Let's go, then."
Jellal tried not to think about how warm his hands were, or the firm but caring pressure of Siegrian's hand on his arm. Why was he having these thoughts?
They walked for a while before coming across a figure laying on the ground, masked and cloaked.
Siegrain walked directly up to the figure and said, "hello, there, are you fucking alive?"
The figure coughed twice and sat up. He didn't say a word.
"Hello there? Can you hear me? Earthland to weird masked dude... Can you hear me?"
The figure spoke then, in a voice that was perfectly the same as siegrain's. "Earthland?! This is earthland?!"
"Oh my fucking god of course it's earthland, where the fuck else would we be, asshole?"
"Edolas?"
Siegrain just gave him a pitying look. "Ah, so you are his counterpart?"
Jellal didn't know what was going on here, and was confused why Siegrain was so intent on being answered. He studied the man's mask, and wished he could take it off and see what was underneath. He had beautiful eyes, just like Siegrain's... If he were into men, he might be inclined to flirt with him. Instead, he said to mystogan: "I want to take those off you." Referring to the cap and mask, of course.
     "That is quite... Uh, forward of you..."
     "It's quite hot out, might be good to show a little skin and cool yourself down..."
Mystogan didn't answer what Jellal had said, but he seemed embarrassed to Jellal.
Siegrain seemed to have decided something. "Considering you two don't have a place to sleep tonight, why don't you sleep with me, in my tent..."
They agreed, and met up in a tent.
Three minutes later, Jellal realized he had misunderstood what they meant by sleeping with them. Siegrain stormed out annoyed by him.
Later, Jellal went to find Siegrain and promised to make it up to him. Siegrain agreed, and Siegrain, Mystogan, and Jellal all went back to his tent. In the morning, they would be tired from the night's activities.
