[Voice/Action] Forward-dated to the afternoon of the 9th
[He should have seen this coming- it's like it's some kind of retaliation for what he'd done on Teddy's birthday. He still manages to be surprised when Teddy shoos him out of the apartment some time after breakfast on the 9th, barely given time to grab his coat and stuff his laptop into a bag before he's been officially banished from his own home.
...Well then. Looks like he's in the wind today. First things first: while he isn't usually the type to announce this kind of thing, thanks to having the afternoon to himself (whereas usually his birthday is filled with doting parents and obnoxious little brothers vying for attention) he's feeling indulgent enough to go for it, and he remembers something in particular...]
Okay- first of all, question for everybody. Now that I know about that whole... Valentine's Day thing that's supposed to happen every year, does anyone know how to avoid it? Or should I just lock myself in my room for a few days and hope for the best?
And second, to the X-Men? If the team training is still on for today, it's probably safe to go ahead and assume I won't make it. I'm allowed to have plans on my birthday. But happy birthday to Logan whenever he gets back- 180 is a pretty big landmark, right?
[Hopefully he won't get killed for that one, but he just couldn't help himself. Even if the accuracy of that number is questionable.
The rest of the afternoon will be spent in the following ways: goofing off in the Battle Dome with some self-indulgent hologram scenarios blatantly ripped out of Star Trek, wasting time in Seventh Heaven with excessive amounts of coffee and his laptop like a proper teenage hipster, and then, when his battery's running dry, returning to building #5 to bully Teddy into feeding the laptop's power cord under the door, at which point he'll be curled up on the floor outside his apartment playing Minecraft or something while he waits for his boyfriend to finish... whatever he's doing in there.]

Wow, suddenly the writing makes a lot more sense.]
Oh, wow.
[TAP TAP TAP goes the pen on paper as he sorts out what to even say to that.]
The Malnosso really like doing that to people, don't they.

How'd your birthday go?

Pretty good so far. Nice and quiet, lots of well-wishes. I'm just waiting outside the apartment now until Teddy lets me in.
Re: [Written]
Sounds like some surprise. You kids have fun.

So, any idea what he's got planned this time around?

Though the truth is he doesn't want to come up with a real example- since it's when Teddy is depressed that the real hiding occurs, and that's not something he should be sharing.]
Well, I could say, but it might be kind of NSFW.
Re: [Written]
NSFW? New Strange Future Writing..?
[Written]
Uh.
It's slang. For [porn] the kind of stuff you'd hide under your mattress so your parents don't see it, you know?

[THIS ISN'T AWKWARD AT ALL.]
I don't know about you, but I'd be happy to pretend I kept my big mouth shut and the last part of this conversation didn't happen.
[Written]
You can relax, though- I was mostly joking. The Teddy part, I mean.
Re: [Written]
Look, I've gotta go, but have fun and try not to scandalize the neighbors too much, alright?
