[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.]

[....Amazing. Just amazing. He lingers like that for a long moment, feeling the rush inside his body, trembling around it, tense and straight-backed and loving every second of it.

When it passes, and he comes back to himself again, Billy only has enough energy to lift himself off of Teddy and then back down again, freeing him. As reluctant as he is to lose the sensation, he knows that he's about to fall right over, and he'd prefer not to bend any sensitive bits when he does. Which is about five seconds after he sits back down again- just pitches forward with a gasp and a happy sigh, burying his face happily against Teddy's damp chest. Above them, the starscape has brightened up here and there, galaxies forming, stars twinkling in a pattern as if to serenade their very excellent sex.]


T... Teddy... Teddy... nnnn...

[That's post-sex Billy-speak for "that was really freaking good".]

[Billy doesn't notice what Teddy's looking at, and as he settles down, gradually, so too do the stars, which probably just serves to support Teddy's new mood-based theory. He snuggles up close, content to lie there until things start to get uncomfortably sticky and force him to get up.]

Mmm... happy birthday...

[Can he have a birthday more often? Or maybe they should just do that more often. Because that felt pretty incredible.

Then again, sex with Teddy is always incredible. So they could pretty much just have more sex and he'd be okay with it.]

[Billy responds with a bit of a breathless laugh, his breath hot against Teddy's chest. He slides a hand up to stroke gently over the blond's stomach, deftly avoiding the wet smear he'd left there only moments ago. He'll get around to that in a minute.]

I think... it was a team effort.

We definitely do.

[Billy echoes that soft, contented noise, closing his eyes and continuing that gentle, stroking motion. It feels good to cozy up, particularly since his legs feel kind of like noodles right now. Maybe getting up is going to take longer than he anticipated.]

....We really need, like, wet wipes in the dresser or something.
