This is so not cool, Devlin.

Ugh, I can't go anywhere for help without either being ignored, or having my cheeks pinched. I saw an alien earlier, I think it was an XLR8. I tried to follow them but they were too quick and I didn't get to my watch in time to follow.

Devlin, where are you? I'm seriously starting to worry and it's not cool.

I'm so telling on you when I find dad.

aliens really are here, old people like cheeks, devlin mia, big trouble

Yeah! I've been looking for Devlin. Uh, you wont meet him for awhile. But some weird guy's been looking for you. He looks like you but... Inverted or something.

Anyways, I'm from the future. You're my dad! I found Aunt Gwendolyn but I'd rather stay with you. I kinda... fell out of a portal and ended up here in the past. So... I don't have anywhere to stay or anyway to get food...

You...Are from the future. Like, the future future where I'm big and buff and have a beard?

[Ben scratches at his stubbly chin self-consciously. Older him had a really cool beard.]

Uh...So...Y-you need a place to stay?

[Initiating panic sequence.]

tiny_tennyson October 11 2009, 08:36:27 UTC
Yep! That future!

*smiles widely*

Well, I am currently sleeping inside that old factory. And I haven't eaten much lately... I can't imagine how Devlin is doing...

[Initiating pouty sequence to counter the panic]

[Oh Christ the kid's pouting oh shit. Oh shit.]

L-listen, uh...Kid. I'm a student at the Uni right now. I'm in a dorm room and I have a grumpy roommate. I dunno if you can stay with me. I don't...Uh...

And, uh, Devlin? Who is that?

[fdghjkdhgkjlhkjlks Ben gets more and more flustered with each passing second. This is his apparently his son and that's a big fucking deal and the kid's sleeping in an old factory and hasn't eaten...Paradox must be behind this. His idea of a Home Ec project, probably.]

[Guess it is too much to ask for him to take a strange kid in. I can take care of myself anyways...]

It's alright. I-I just need to find Devlin, then we can find a way back home.

He's my best friend. Pretty much my only friend. He stays with us and you-uh, future you, sorta adopted him. He's Kevin 11's son. But when Kevin went rouge again... Well, Devlin got hurt and so great grandpa Max and you decided that he should stay with us.

But I haven't seen him since that light showed up... I'm really worried about him...

I have a son. Okay, cool. Kevin has a son. What is this. What the hell is going on.]

[Deep breaths, Ben. Deeeeeeep breaths.]

A-alright, Kiddo. You can stick with me.

[He's trying his best to stay calm, but Ben's pretty disturbed by the thought of Kevin a) having a son and b) going rogue again. Maybe not in that order. Maybe in that order. alright, this is just a big mindfuck.]

So, you don't know where Devlin is? No idea at all?

You don't have to keep calling me weird things. My name is Kenny. Y'know, after my uncle, Ken.

I don't even know where I am right now. I just keep wandering around and using Wildmutt to sniff for him. Still no luck. I've even tried asking some white haired girl with all these potions to help. But still nothing...

Well I didn't know your name.

[Siiiiigh. Keep it cool, Benji. he's just a kid.]

Alright, Kenny, you're in Bellwood. Did Future-Me-With-The-Beard else tell you anything about this place? My hometown and all?

[Pause, record scratch, rewind.]

Hold up, "white-haired girl with potions"? Ah, shit...

tiny_tennyson October 11 2009, 09:32:02 UTC
You don't really like to talk about your hometown much. You get all sad and distant when it's brought up.

Yeah, white haired. She was pretty nice. Kinda weird, but nice. I mean, she did try to help me.

[Well what could have happened there? Hmm...]

Okay, uh, Ken. Listen, stay away from that lady. I mean, if she is who I think she is, then she's really bad news. Bad news like a magical H-Bomb.

Crap, I gotta talk to Gwen about this...

tiny_tennyson October 11 2009, 20:53:53 UTC
Really? She seemed nice... It's not everyday that someone actually helps out a lost kid. Most people just ignore me. Like that black haired guy. He was a real jerk.

I don't get it, that girl was nice...

Look, if the girl you're talking about is the one I'm thinking of, then she's major trouble.

[Ben holds out his hand, hoping he looks parent-ish enough for the poor kid.]

C'mon, we're gonna head back to my dorm for a bit and see what we can do, okay?
