[Open] It's a Winter Wonderland

WHO: Teddy, OTA
WHERE: Winter Planet
WHAT: Teddy's arrival, snowball fights, investigating the food.
WHEN: During the event, late January.
WARNINGS: N/A


a; arrival
Teddy has set a new record on how many times he can get kidnapped by aliens in a twenty-four hour period. Although, the Agrii are the first aliens who have abducted him that have neither tried to kill him nor pressure him into becoming their king. And...he really doesn't know what to do with that. In fact, he barely has time to come to terms with what he's even doing on their planet before being shipped off to another one.

This new planet looks like something out of a Christmas movie, if the movie was set during the Christmas off season. If it wasn't for the other ships lined up just outside the village, he would think the place has been abandoned. Still, it looks far more welcoming than the idea of standing out in the snow does. Teddy is not dressed for winter, clad only in a pair of dark pants and a close-fitting sleeveless top. And while he does feel the icy bite of the cold air against his skin, he doesn't appear to feel it as deeply as one would expect. If that doesn't do enough to make him stand out, he's also carrying a rather large sword with some kind of runic language carved into it.

He's a bit on guard as he enters the village, not sure what kind of reception to expect. He's still half-expecting someone or something to attack.

b; snow ball fight
Growing up in New York City has taught Teddy all of the numerous ways in which to take advantage of snow. From snow angels to snowmen he's skilled in the art of transforming snow into whatever he wants it to be. But there's nothing he enjoys better than rolling up the snow into a tightly packed ball and launching it at some poor unsuspecting target.

Not hard, of course. He would never use his real strength for something like that. But his aim is impeccable, especially when his target isn't expecting it. A snow ball glides through the air, bumping into a shoulder, or against a back, and crumbling apart into smaller clumps of snow. Teddy, grinning, can easily be spotted as the culprit.

"Why don't we put this snow to some good use?"

c; this food is questionable
Despite his few misadventures in space, Teddy has never been exposed to protein gel before. And the longer he's around it the more sure he is that he's never wanted to be exposed to it. But here he is. Staring mutinously at a somewhat cleverly disguised piece of protein gel in the shape of a steak.

"Has anyone tried asking what this stuff is made out of? 'Protein' is not a good enough answer. They have the power to abduct us from our worlds but can't manage to bring any real food along for the ride?"

Billy's been playing babysitter through most of their stay on this planet, though things are finally starting to settle, with fewer and fewer children to worry about. He's finally able to take some time to himself, and thank god, because he does not feel suited to being the responsible one.

He's walking through the snow when he stops dead in his tracks, blinking in disbelief at the familiar figure he sees approaching, and after a short beat a breathless smile breaks over his face, and he's rushing to throw his arms around him tight.

"Teddy??" He looks up at his face, like he's not quite sure he's really, and gives a hushed laugh, "What are you- how- ...w-why do you have a sword?" A whole jumble of questions try to work their way out at once, and some how that's the only one he manages to get out clearly.

Billy shakes his head, his own smile fading a little in kind though he at least has some idea as to why they might have different ideas of what they've left behind.

"I wasn't. Not yet, anyways. I think they might have pulled you from after me. Unless one of us is from an alternate dimension."

Billy does the same, though in searching Teddy's face he feels reasonably sure this one is his, not that he can begin to explain how he feels so sure.

"2014 for me. New Years was just a few days ago...Loki threw us a party," he tries to keep the details vague but specific enough that Teddy can recognize the timeline if he shares it,

Listen, the only reason Tommy's there is because he's hungry. Or he's going to claim that if Teddy asks. But when your twin brother excitedly tells you that his fiance is around, then there you go, you're gonna look. Which he doesn't let Billy answer for him. Doesn't wanna know where Teddy is. Instead he's running around, racing until he finds the person he was looking for. He makes sure to slow down as he approaches, makes sure to let his shoes (new and perfect) make plenty of noise to Teddy knows he isn't alone.

But then he comments and Tommy can't help but burst out laughing.

"Nah, man. I really don't wanna know. But the chili one tastes good. And Vision says he can probably make chocolate ice cream out of the chocolate stuff. Or near enough."

Billy's features flinch a little, a guilty expression on his face, but he nods. It's still fairly fresh.

"...Yeah," he confirms, and he feels horrible to hear Teddy's voice crack like that, even with a year separating him from it all.

"Right after that."

"It's what I go to for comfort food. But Vizh says he needs liquid nitrogen or something to make the ice cream. Anyway, get a bowl of the chili and heat it up."

Tommy's already crossed the space between them and is making himself a bowl. See, he's learned to live with the horrid experience.

"The liquid nitrogen to freeze it right," Tommy shrugs. He doesn't know. Don't ask him. "I mean, usually I rely on B for some stuff I need."

Vitamins and things like that. The Agrii aren't really set up to handle people like him. But he takes his bowl to the microwave to let him heat it up.

"Dude, using his powers is more draining here. I try to eat as much as I can without begging him for it," Tommy explains, frowning as he punches in some numbers for Teddy. "I wouldn't want him so drained that he can't protect himself, Teddy. Neither should you."
wearingthestars: (sad)

"Mmm-" It takes a moment for Billy to push that guilt back down and let himself be happy in this moment, settling against Teddy and listening to the steady thrum of his heart.

"Me too." Maybe that's selfish. He shouldn't want Teddy to be here. To be snatched away from home. He's spent so long fighting that want, but now that he's here all Billy feels is relief. "It's been so long."

Thing about being a Sith, was that one was always ready for a surprise attack. Even here, he didn't totally let his guard down, unless he was in a place where he felt relatively safe. And attacks, of the playful sort or not, usually came with certain emotions.

Turned away as he was, small and thin as he was, he probably looked like a child when spotted from behind- a target that would probably enjoy a snowball fight.

He was neither.

The snowball nearly hit him- but only nearly. Once it was centimeters from his head, he easily tilted it to the side, and it zipped harmlessly by.

Turning toward the culprit of the surprise attack, he tilted his head, "Not all who are here are quite so keen on playing in the snow. And I'm certain they've all got their own ideas as well, about what counts as putting it to good use."

The snowball had landed harmlessly in soft snow- he could tell that it was still whole, and used the Force to yank it back out, returning it to sender- he didn't care whether or not it hit its mark, "Next time, at least yell out a warning, hm? After all, what would you have done, had I been someone frail, or sickly?"

Come on, Ted, aren't you the sort of guy that comes up with the smart ideas when it comes to Billy? Then again, Tommy's the one that has been taking care of Billy since they got here.

"Uh, let's see. Wanda and Vision? They're here from another world, so they don't know our this. The Agrii mean well but they don't get us. And I can't blow things up."

Damn, there's a lot of Avenger-types here.

At the question, Lorna shakes her head slightly. "Nope. I haven't been here that long, but I don't think I want to know. I've eaten weird shit before, and for now I'm okay not knowing where this falls on that list." She offers a half smile.

Billy tries to think back, "...Um...Five...six months...I think?" he guesses. It's hard to track time here, though reflecting back on it now makes his voice catch a little, and he blinks back flustered tears, so relieved to finally have Teddy back.

"Sorry-"

Don't worry Teddy. Tommy and Billy really enjoy their time with their mom and pops. Tommy loved them already, and they were kind and affectionate to him.

"Yeah. We... Vision knew pretty instantly. I accidentally drank this thing that was like truth serum and got all bitter over our Vision. He wanted to know why and I couldn't help but tell him. Wanda we told recently."

As for the rest, he sighs, fingers carding through his hair. The microwave dings and he gets his food out and selects a table to sit at.

"I've tried. It could be useful here. But I can only accelerate things to a point. Cracks, no booms."
