[Today marked a big day for Teddy Altman: He's eighteen today. If he were back in New York, he could vote in elections, own a credit/debit card of his own, and not have to groan over papers and applications that had a little note for people who were under eighteen. He's pretty much an adult now.
He still kind of feels like a young teenager who has no idea what he's doing, though, so he can't help being a little disappointed when he wakes up and doesn't suddenly feel like a man with a plan who knows everything and can do anything.
After gently being coaxed outside by Billy, Teddy decides to do all the things he usually does, seeing how Luceti is sorely lacking in ways to celebrate a milestone year like this. He wanders and chats up store owners, from the bakery to the weapon shop to Seventh Heaven to even the general store. He gets himself a large meal for lunch, as is customary for a guy like him, and orders his favorite just for today. He visits the library and reads up on whatever new comics they have, and that's where he gets lost in thought enough to open his journal and ask a question that's been on his mind since the day began.]
When someone turns eighteen, do they do anything special? It's a pretty big thing for teenagers in America; you can vote and get drafted and pretty much be considered an adult by the law. But does it mean anything in other worlds? Call me curious.
[He goes to the Battledome after that to simulate a basketball game – just to watch this time, not to participate. The 1992 East Regional Final, Duke verses Kentucky, one of the most suspenseful games in history and something that Teddy had watched on YouTube, but certainly not like this. It's no wonder that he's particularly hyped when he walks out. So much so that he takes to the sky as soon as he's outside, deciding that he'd rather take the joyride home rather than plain old walking. He's still a teenager, and he still feels pretty invincible even without that adult knowledge he was expecting, so why not?
Teddy might not feel any different, but it's still a pretty special day.]

Loud and clear. I'm taken anyway, so no weird ideas from me.

[JUST...PUTTING THAT OUT THERE JUST IN CASE.]
video;
But seriously, you don't have to put me on your radar. I'm pretty sure my boyfriend would kill me if I did something to deserve any of that.
[Just putting that out there, in case Vegeta needs any further proof that Teddy will absolutely, positively, never have any weird thoughts of Bulla.]

[However, Teddy has now made the small list of boys Bulla can bring home without retribution. This list is now reading as:
(1)Rock Lee
(1)Rin Okumura
(1)Teddy Altman
Congrats!]
I'll consider it. [Yeah, you're fine Teddy.] Just make sure to keep it that way.

But hey, sweet, now he can be proper friends with Bulla. Sweet!]
