[The video flicks on while America’s trying to work out how the thing works, clicking buttons without even trying to read the manual first. He’s pulled the map out of his Backpack which isn't much help. It’s pretty obvious too, considering the clueless expression he’s giving it

[...Okay, normally Yagyuu probably would've just glanced past this post on the network, but this level of catastrophe is something you don't see every day. Seriously.]

Is there some reason you're in such a hurry?

[ttlyahero]

[Oh, hey! So that's how that works. Though he's not paying full attention as he's suddenly met a row of trees that you apparently can't even walk under.]

These aren't on the-

[Instead of looking back at the map though, he's going to look back at the video feed, looking a little... distressed.]

It's too cold!

[It's sort of like watching a trainwreck--you sort of don't want to look, but you can't seem to look away.]

Understandable, given that it's the middle of November. Or it is here, at least.

[A trainwreck would be one way to describe it...

It's not like he expected to be tossed out the door either though.]

Yeah, well. It didn't look this cold from inside.

I suppose it'd be painfully cliché to point out that looks can often be deceiving.

[Ah, well. He is gracious enough to admit that being cold really sucks. So sure, helpfulness go.]

If you have the backpack they gave you upon your arrival, there should be a change of clothes inside. Perhaps it'll turn out to be something warmer than your current attire.

Y-yeah... [He keeps learning that the hard way too...]

Though this thing? I already changed into the trainer clothes that were in there. It's my ordinary clothes that I kinda need.

He was too excited and left some of them behind. It's pretty obvious he'd regretting that now too.]

Your enthusiasm is undeniably impressive.

Ah, but 'Mom' won't let you back in? You may have to take drastic measures to remedy the situation, then.

[ttlyahero]

Drastic measures? [He looks a little dumb for a moment, thinking that over.]

Like breaking the door down? [...Yagyuu probably didn't mean that though.]

[usedlaserbeam]

I would've suggested the window, myself, but breaking the door down would make for an effective solution. Try the back; I seem to recall the bedroom window was unlocked when it was my turn to arrive.

[Oh, right. Damaging property was probably not the best of ideas. It wasn't as though his 'mother' had known he'd forgotten some stuff.]

Sure thing!

[Only now he's going to pretend he's on a stealth mission, I hope he realises that. Sneaking around isn't his best ability either so it's likely it won't work so well.]

[usedlaserbeam]

[Oh, man, this is better than prime-time television.]

I hope you have some success with it. I don't think you'll be able to get a new set of clothes until at least the next city, and that's a three-day walk.

[Tune in every week for--- I mean.

But hey! He's inside at least... though he's also almost on the floor thanks to almost tripping up. It's okay though, mom'll never know!

He's doing it properly too, as when he talks again, he's totally whispering.]

Why not just run there? That'll only take two days then. Maybe one if you're quick enough. [Common sense, he has none.]

[usedlaserbeam]

Assuming you didn't need to stop to breathe, eat, or sleep, I suppose it's possible you could make it in one day. If you were quick enough.

[ttlyahero]

[Oh... right food. He definitely needs that, though he already ate the one he was given-]

And there's no food until you get to the next town?

video;

[usedlaserbeam]

There should be a lunch in your bag.

[Pause.]

Unless you've already found that as well.

video;

[ttlyahero]

[Awkward silence as that digests.]

Yeah, I already ate that.

[Oh, look. He's made it back to the room now, so he can tug his jacket and gloves on, and proceed to sneak back outside again. He pauses at the top of the stairs though, trying to get in the right position to sneak back down.]
