[Action]

[Although Teddy didn't go on the draft, he knew plenty of friends who did. Once he was certain they were all accounted for, though some had gone through some heavy losses, he felt like he could relax a little. And with relaxation, it dawned on him that he hadn't really practiced his shifting ability in a while. Sure, there was his Hulkling form, but he knew that one. Knew it inside and out. What about others?

This is why he sits by the edge of the fountain, homework and pencil in hand, though he doesn't work so much as watch people over the top of the page. He's inconspicuous about it, as this is a hobby he's developed for some time now.

And when he's sure he's not in anyone's range of vision, he transforms, shifting into the form of the person he's got his eyes on. That's when he stops watching them and looks down at the body he's impersonating, just to study the shape, occasionally glancing up to make sure he has everything right. Even when the person's left, he still stays in that form for a few long moments before he shifts back, writing his answers in his homework once he's satisfied with the shape he's in.

Observe, learn, shift, hold. This is what he's learned over the years, though it's been a while since he's done this for selfless reasons. Just for practice, nothing more.]

[It's sunset and he's still outside, though he appears to be walking back home. There's just one thing on his mind, something that occurred to him while shifting.]

Anyone up for playing b-ball sometime? It's been way too long since I actually got to play against someone. Holograms just don't really cut it, you know?

[He would suggest football, but, well. When you've got the ability to possibly break someone in half with a good tackle, that probably isn't the best sport to go for.]

[Oh a challenge, huh? Sora can't resist that.]

I'm up for it!

[He pauses.]

One question; what's B-ball?

Edited 2013-04-10 02:11 (UTC)

Oh, right. [Sometimes he forgets that people here wouldn't know what that stands for.] It's short for basketball. You heard of that?

Uhhh...well, I think so. It's the game with the two nets and you're going across a court and trying to score on each other, right?

Yeah, basically. There's a lot more rules in a real game, but I don't see why we can't just go freestyle and shoot some hoops instead. [... Wow, he hopes he got all that.]

Unless you want me to point out the rules as we go along?

Well, what's more fun? The game with or without the rules?

[Because fun is key here, Teddy.]

For me, either way. But for someone who doesn't know them, probably without. What fun is playing when you're constantly thinking about the rules you're supposed to follow?

Guess we'll go without. Besides, I'll probably even if we used them. We better make it fair that way.

[Oh yeah, he's totally teasing/being cocky right now.]

Mmhmm. [Sora you're talking to a guy who helped win several games at his old school. Without the use of his powers, save for growing taller for the sake of fitting in.] Fair's fair, after all. I'll meet up with you tomorrow, all right? It's getting late now.

Yeah, no problem there, Teddy! Just get ready for it. Once I know how to play I don't think you'll have an easy time winning.

Yeah, we'll see about that!

[He grins, then shuts the journal. Tomorrow is another day.

AND INDEED once tomorrow rolls around, Teddy opens up the journal later in the afternoon, already at the Battledome and waiting for his victims.]

Hey, Sora. Ready to go?

[And Sora's there all ready to go.]

You know it, Teddy! Give me your best shot!
