(Note: Terry gave Kido his phone. Bought his own flipphone on 8/26!)

He has a stall set up in the market street for locating things. Feel free to thread it out with an inbox action thread or handwave it!

[He'll give it a listen! He looks pretty thoughtful as they play.]

...I'm not sure I understand the second one fully, but... both of them are interesting, like this one. [Lifting the CD with Lost One's Weeping.]

I think if I get these, it should be enough to start with. [Maybe?? That's like three CDs already so.]

[overstrain]

Yeah, sounds like a good way to start.

[ Terry has no idea how the songs are like, despite having picked them (at random), but... he hopes this will help Sasuke be on his way to enjoy living life for himself. ]

Okay, now for a CD player and headphones. I'll help you pay for these at least. They can get pricey depending on which one you pick, and I don't want you to pick a cheap one and it dies in a month.

[not_that_sasuke]

It doesn't need to be anything fancy. [He doubts he'd be able to tell much of a difference anyway.] So maybe not the cheapest, but still cheaper?

[overstrain]

[ Honestly, though... Terry has never owned a CD player in his life, but he'll do his best, since he knows about headphones at least. ]

Yeah, I'll go pick something out. Feel free to look around to see if anything else catches your eye.

[ And there he goes, but then he comes back quickly as if he forgot something (he did). ]

What's your favorite color?

[not_that_sasuke]

[Oh.

Um...]

I don't really have one. [Hmm...] Something that isn't too bright?

[overstrain]

Alright. I'll be back.

[ Okay, now Terry goes off to find a good pair of headphones. He starts looking for muted colors too, using pinpointing like a search engine again to find a good pair.

...

After some time, Terry comes back again, with a CD player and a pair of headphones. ]

Do these look good to you?

[not_that_sasuke]

Yeah, those will work. Thanks.

[Spoilers he would say the same thing even if they were neon pink, because what's a preference.]

So checkout's... over there, right?

[overstrain]

Yeah. I'll wait for you outside the store. Let me know if you need me!

[ Like if he needs more money or something... but that would have to involve Sasuke actually bothering him, huh. Terry walks outside to wait. ]

[not_that_sasuke]

Alright.

[It would involve bothering him! And also, he can handle buying some things, he's not that sheltered.

Eventually he walks out with his new purchases, a rare smile on his face. He's still very new to the world of music, but... It'll be nice to listen, he thinks.]

Thanks for the help.

[overstrain]

[ gasp

Sasuke smiled!! Terry is momentarily surprised and widely grins in return. He's so happy seeing Sasuke smile... ]

Sure thing! If you want to hang out or want to experience some new things in life, feel free to come over so we can go somewhere together!

[ He might as well be sparkling... ]

[not_that_sasuke]

[This is a surprisingly enthusiastic response?! Now he just looks confused.]

Oh. Um... sure. If you really want.

[And he will! It's just weird how happy Terry seems all of a sudden.]

[overstrain]

Yeah! I really do.

[ He'll just continue to give off imaginary sparkles... Happiness is great. ]

Want me to walk you home? Uh... The Velvet Room? You still live there, right?

[not_that_sasuke]

Yeah. I don't have to do anything to stay there anymore, so...

[It's the most convenient option.]

...Do you think the headphones will help?

[With the music.]

[overstrain]

I never tried, but... it should a little? Probably?

[ It probably won't, because they directly play in their heads.

Terry will start leading Sasuke to the castle now. ]

[not_that_sasuke]

[He won't expect much and be less disappointed as a result. But yes, off to the castle! Thread end?]

[overstrain]

[ Thread end! Please enjoy you music to the fullest elsewhere, Sasuke... ]
