002 - [Action/Voice]
[Late in the morning, only just after he had his morning coffee and just fixed toast for breakfast, Teddy had been surprised to find himself being shoved out of the apartment by his own boyfriend. Soon, he found himself blinking at the front door, a piece of cinnamoned toast still in his hand as the post-it note with his name beside Billy's door sign fluttered mournfully to the ground.
He got out a pitiful whine and forlornly posted the note back up before he ushered himself outside, finishing his toast in the meantime.
During the day, Teddy can be found at multiple places. The first is the Battledome, where he fiddles with the settings, some as harmless as a movie theater and some as dangerous as a warzone, but he doesn't fully go through with them. He's merely going through the options for later use. He may mutter to himself about how this must be what the Danger Room is like, and he may even be up for a light spar or something different if someone found him.
The second is Seventh Heaven, where he eats a light lunch of a small burger with fries, and he's a little proud of how he didn't compare it to New York's food outloud. It doen't mean he doesn't think it, though, and he spends more time subtly people watching and listening to conversations than really focusing on food and what the homelife was like. When he's done, he doodles a few musical notes on a napkin, again to possibly be used at a later date, before he stuffs that in his pocket.
The final place is on the roof of the school. He's not doing much of anything up there, just sitting with his legs pulled up and looking out over the village.
Teddy still can't help marveling over how different this place is from what he's used to. There aren't any sounds of car alarms or horns, no distant conversations or laughter, no police sirens or a far off explosion from an invading force (though, Teddy thinks to himself, he ought to be more thankful for the lack of the latter). Occasionally at night, he still wakes up and thinks that it's too quiet, too dark. And he really hopes he's not the only one who thinks that way.
With that thought in mind, Teddy reaches behind him to take the journal, left open in case Billy decides to let him back into the apartment, and decides to address the masses.]
Does anyone else feel seriously out of place here, or am I just being weird? And I don't mean the whole, "being held captive and having to suffer through lame shifts", but just the setting in general. Anyone else out there come from a home that's completely different from a village straight out of Golden Sun?
[He decides then that he'll chat with people for a while, then venture off the roof and see if Billy will allow him back inside. Not that Teddy knows what he did to deserve being kicked outside, but maybe he can beg for forgiveness enough to be let back in.]

Oh, I know what that's like. In New York, there's only one place where there's lots of green, and that's one park. And there's still lots of sounds and sights to see there that's totally different from here. Otherwise, you might as well replace every tree here with a big building, and you've got my city.
no subject
But hey! If your world still has trees, does that mean you still have books?
no subject
Clean
Teddy almost just laughs right there, but if you really think about it, it would be one of the first to get cleaned, wouldn't it? New York is big and has a symbol of patriotism, so it would get some priority.
Still. New York, clean. lolol.]
Oh, we've got plenty of books! Fiction, non-fiction, comic books... What, yours doesn't?
no subject
Comic books? Seriously!? [SHE SOUNDS SO HAPPY.] I mean, we have no trees back home, right? And any wood you can spare has to go to other places, so paper is kind of a rarity these days.
no subject
[Considering his shelves of books at home? Not just comics but also books in general? Man...]
Tell you what; I've got some comics here, too. Maybe you can come over and read them sometime, as long as you're careful. [HIS COMICS ARE IMPORTANT OKAY.]
no subject
[DOES SHE SOUND EXCITED she's excited.]
Where do you even find them!? I mean, I've practically been living at the library and their comics selection is pretty sparse!
