Teddy was on the couch, watching seizure inducing cartoons. After radio broadcast from last night said that Cassie was talking to people about him, he needed something insanely violent to take his mind off traitorous ex-teammates

Setsuna drifted into the common room, sort of hungry but sort of not, perhaps half expecting to half-heartedly meet some new people.
"Oh. Morning, Teddy," she gave him a small smile and tried not to feel uncomfortable, avoiding thinking about what she and Jude had talked about. She instead focused on the television screen with a bit of an arched eyebrow. "And to think I thought leaving Japan would save me from this sort of thing."
"Morning Setsuna!" Teddy was completely oblivious to the discomfort Setsuna felt around him. He grinned back at her. "It's everywhere, didn't you know that?"
"I suppose I do now," Setsuna smiled back a little shyly and joined him on the couch, reminding herself again that she wasn't going to think anything about him, or Jude, or Chad, in any combination whatsoever. She was going to think about bad anime which she knew a lot about, being from one. "How have you been, Teddy?"
Setsuna winced. Nice. That could go into the not-going-to-think about territory.
Conversations always seemed to go dead around the two of them anyway. Wingy UST
"It was very long and I'm quite glad it is over," Setsuna admitted, with a deep breath. Considering the freedom of what being back at Fandom allowed her and Ranma to do? Yeah. Quite glad. She turned a little pink thinking about it. "I...don't think I'm going to ever agree to spend that much time with the twins again. I must have been drugged or crazy when I consented to that."
Setsuna gulped, and turned a little red. "Well...nothing more than usual, really, except..." She took in a deep breath, unsure if she should say anything, but realizing that she'd already started. "Well, Hikaru stole the first kiss of the new year..." she said quietly, with the disappointment in the realization that there wouldn't even have been a New Year's kiss with Ranma if he hadn't done it.
Setsuna let out a soft scoff of a laugh. "I suppose I could. Might have enough time to work on Ranma a bit to know that sometimes, it is okay to kiss someone in public by then..."
No, she didn't sound bitter at all. What are you talking about?
Actually, remembering yesterday did help her seem a bit less bitter, but it was still there on the edges of her voice.
"Ranma is just..." Teddy started to defended his friend before realizing he had nothing to say about Ranma's issues with people. "Ranma. I think you have to be the agressive one if you want anything to happen with him."
Setsuna sighed a bit, hoped that the sigh didn't seem too big. "Yeah...I'm sort of starting to understand that a bit. But...it's hard. I mean, come on. I'm Japanese. A girl isn't supposed to even want to initiate that sort of thing..."
And then Setsuna realized that she was talking about kissy-stuff with Teddy and started fidgeting a bit, turning all pink with embarrassment. Japanese girls weren't supposed to talk about this stuff with boys, either. Or at all.
