[Okay, so. Post-draft, he's given himself a few days of seclusion and bed-rest (apparently being infected with a zombie virus is exhausting), and even Billy can freely admit to himself that he's been pretty depressed lately, a fact for which he feels no shame considering that depression was well and truly earned. One can only spend so much time fretting, moping, and dwelling on one's own misery for so long, however, and today? He's decided that enough is enough. Billy will be going out today, limping around the village and visiting the people who were on the draft whose fate he's still uncertain of. The ones he can't find or has no reason to actually visit, he'll check with a light location spell, and he'll spend a few hours at Seventh Heaven people-watching out the window while he doodles in a book that Teddy had given him containing a series of patterns (much like this) that resemble inkblogs, and bit by bit Billy's turning them into something like this instead. It's been a tiring week, though, so you could always catch him napping on the table, instead.
At some point he'll attempt to find Peter, and when both a location spell and a teleport fails, he tries to teleport to the apartment he'd been staying at instead, finding it almost completely emptied. All he manages to dig up is a small cartridge that, after a moment of scrutiny, he identifies as a web fluid cartridge. His fanboyish glee at the discovery is tempered by the fact that the empty apartment means one more piece of bad news.
After his visits and window-watching is done, he'll return home to make the announcement, along with one more message-]
Hey out there... just wanted to let his friends know that Peter Parker went home. So... sorry. Yeah.
[Locked to Loki]
...We still on for tomorrow, or do you want to take a break? Because... you know. [Draft. Awfulness all around. He wouldn't blame Loki if he wanted to take a week off.
Later on in the evening he'll be over at Ben's barbeque, if anyone wants to bother him while he's there.]

If Billy chooses to follow the scent of bacon and eggs to the fourth floor kitchen, he'll probably come across one particular Robin wearing civvies. He's fairly bandaged up, an eyepatch visible under oversized sunglasses, but still hobbling around with his bo staff as a makeshift cane.
Things suck enough that he might not even be opposed to sharing with a curious visitor from upstairs. Provided it's not Tommy. Tommy can totally go hungry.]

She'd had to face it.
And she'd found facing it had helped. It had taken her weeks to do it, but recreating the scenario and fighting through it had helped.
And if it worked once, Rogue didn't see any reason why it wouldn't work again.
And so after her shift in the Item Shop, she is out in the Battle Dome, recreating a very specific scenario. Zombies. A dead run in the still of the morning. A house for a shelter. And not enough time.
She's fighting through to the rescue once again, and everything is just as bad as she remembers it.]

[Action] how many threads do we have now
The book in his lap obviously doesn't interest him at all, seeing how he's got his eyes closed and seems to be dozing. And upon looking at the book, Billy will probably see why: It's a medical book, a basic one at that.
Looks like he only made it about fifteen pages before his attention span gave out.]
[Action] I've lost count
[Action] well damn
[Action] clearly the only solution is to make more

He's getting out a little more and checking on the people who didn't show up to drown their sorrows. He's going about it the old fashioned way, once again, because he doesn't really know what to say over a network like that, and living with a lot of them makes it easier to catch a glance in the halls. He runs into Billy mostly by accident while he's picking up some takeout at Seventh Heaven. Poor kid's passed out on the table.]
Hey, rise and shine. [Bucky nudges his shoulder lightly.]

With a bowl of stew and an easy smile Zev slid into the chair across from Billy. There was no reason they should both be in a poor mood.]
