"AWRIGHT! He's BACK!"
Tyler glanced back towards the source of the shouting. He paused only a second to listen as Kyle started whooping and cheering at the melted display case before trotting very carefully and focusing on Garion's medallion... He just had to hide his gear in his room for now.
After shoving it all into his empty comicbook box and burying that under two other boxes, Tyler let out a slow breath of relief. Toby wouldn't be out of his remedial classes for another ho-
"I TOLD YOU HE HAD SUPERPOWERS!" Emerald Gauntlet hollered from the door of his room, making Tyler jump back. "Told you! And Moon Shadow's going to be so awesome now that he's back from bein' dead!"
With that last jeer, the green-suited boy flew off down the hall, leaving Tyler alone in his room again.
"...some day-"
-pop!!-
"Tyler!" Toby appeared in the middle of their room, with a little burst of displaced air. Tyler sighed as the new notepad he'd asked for turned into a flowerpot and a toy whale. "Mom and Dad want us to eat with them in the tower tonight, so after class I gotta fly us both there, you can tell me more about Moon Shadow on the way, right?"
-pop!!-
Great, picking up the two squiggle-shaped items that had just a minute ago been a new notebook, Tyler sighed. Maybe it was for the best, he'd have to find better ways of hiding his Milliways and Moon Shadow notebooks away from Toby soon.
-knocknock-
"Tyler?" Julie...no she was 84 now, or both, knocked on the door peering inside. "That was a really neat story you gave about Moon Shadow in class today."
"Oh! Thanks," He started brightening up, at least one person had liked the story...
"Did you get to meet him?"
"...what?"
"Moon Shadow, did you get to meet him and talk with him during the invasion? That's why you got infected right?"
Something inside just dropped down into his sneakers. Great. Maybe he should just let them form a Moon Shadow fan club and be done with the whole pile of bantha puuduu.
84 must have caught the look on his face as she put her hand to her mouth. "Oh, oh I'm sorry...I forgot..you probably don't wanna talk about it." After fiddling with her gloves a bit she finally asked. "How're things settling in with Toby?"
"...they're okay," Tyler glanced up as the five minute warning bell started.
"Oops, I better get to class, I'll see you later Tyler!"
"Later 84!" He called after her quietly before shutting the door to his room.
My life could be a comic book and no one would ever believe it.
After 20 seconds having made sure no one else was coming in to talk to him, he grabbed up his backpack with the training saber and pulled out the battered barcoaster keychain. Then he carefully pulled the comic longbox with his gear out from under the other two. Making his way to the bathroom in his room, Tyler focused very hard on the desperate urge to use the bathroom....
