[Teddie gives a blank stare as the feed pops on, sitting in his closet and holding his scroll tight. You can practically see the gears turning in his head as he tries to figure out...things. Something isn't right here...


He then gives a loud gasp, his vacant expression turning into one of pure horror.]

What the hec- AM I ALL ALONE HERE?!

...they all left you alone?

[...what the hell, team. What the hell.]

[not here]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

[Look who's talking.]

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

[What the hell indeed.]

They?! They who?! D-Don't tell me this was all some kinda...coordinated bear abeardoning?!

[Visual] /whistles

[pishirogane]

Senpai, you're not in any position to talk.

[She's still very grumpy with him]

[Visual]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

That's an understatement.

[Sorry, Yukiko can't speak still. He's the voice for now.]

[Visual]

[linefacingforever]

I... don't know. My contact with others has been limited.

[He just saw Yukiko the other day, and... well, her staying with Teddie wouldn't have made much of a difference.]

Is there anyone you can stay with until they get back?

[Visual]

[pishirogane]

My apologies. I suppose we neglected to inform you of our intention to accompany Kimishima-san. Between people getting trapped in dreams and others planning to head into Calice, it slipped from my mind. We're still in Canterlot if you want to join us... though...

[Kanji mentioned something about a Kyouko vaguely...]

[Visual]

[linefacingforever]

Thorax, stop.

And Naoto-kun, I've told you why I can't return just yet. I would if it's just Teddie alone.

[Visual]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

I don't listen to you. Why she loves you I have no clue after what you did to her.

[Scroll off. He's being nice right now asshole.]

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

[His ears swivel back.]

Well I'm glad I just slip my friends' mind so easily. I got some serious thinking to do now, I hope you guys are happy.

[Thinking, Naoto. Thinking. That's like, more effort than he should have to do in a day.]

[Visual]

[pishirogane]

[Yeah she... doesn't expect it to last that long.]

What in particular are you doing to think about? You have the responsibility of protecting Ponyville while we're away.

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

Well, there's Kyo-chan and Peek-chan, it's not like I'm alone-alone.

Just...everyone-from-home-alone. It's different but kinda the same...

[Words are hard for bear.]

[Visual]

[linefacingforever]

Oh...

[He paused a moment.]

I'm sorry I can't be there.

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

Mostly why the heck my friends would go some place without me to begin with. You're a smarty, Nao-chan, why don't you help me out here. And if it's anything other than you guys planning a super surprise party, I'm gonna be pretty-...

Well, I dunno what I'm gonna be just yet, but it'll be pretty regardless of what it is.

[/sparkle]

And I'll have you know Ponytown is just fine.

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

Hngh, it's okay, Sensei. I know you're having those serious problems. I might not understand 'em, but that doesn't make them any less important. I hope you found the right doctor you needed.

[That's what he went for, right? A special dream doctor?]

It'll just be like old times, when I used to wait for you guys to come back to the TV World. ...Only with more turtle.

[Visual]

[pishirogane]

To put it one way, we all have to head out on our own times eventually. There's more we have to find out about Equestria, and this is the only way I thought I could contribute besides jumping into Calice.

[A surprise party... they would have to throw something for him she guesses if he wants a birthday party.]

I'm sure you do... but it's still Ponyville.

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

...Alrighty, I admit it, I have no idea what any of that means.

[And yet he smiles anyway.]

But...I'm gonna take your word for it anyway.

[Visual]

[pishirogane]

Thank you. Will be back soon... or, I might come back if they return from Calice soon.

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

Oh yeah, I was gonna ask. What's that all about?

[He was fairly certain 'Calice' was a person...more or less. Not a place.]

[Visual]

[linefacingforever]

[A guilty look flicked across Yu's face.]

I'm sorry, Teddie...

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

Why the heck are you sorry? You're sick, arentcha? That's like being sorry for having a cold!

[Horrible sleep problems are just like a cold.]

[Visual]

[linefacingforever]

Sort of, yeah...

[He trailed off a moment.]

Princess Luna still hasn't found anything. I... really do want to go home already, but I can't like this.

[kuukai]

[ Pause. Paws half-in, half-out of the fridge, raiding the crisper. Several apples on the table next to her.

Tableau of a master thief. ]

No?

[Visual]

[kingofthetvworld]

Hngh, and that's a princess doctor, too. You can't get much better than that.

We're gonna have to go...hardcore. It's time to turn the soup levels up to eleven!

[action]

[kingofthetvworld]

[Well this is embarrassing. Teddie throws a paw behind his head and laughs awkwardly.]

I know you're here, Kyo-chan. There would've been waaaaaaaay more crying if you were gone.

I meant...more like all my friends...from back home. Well, their home- You know what I mean!
