(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!

[ Nails are useful--Terry can use them as darts to throw in battle or for whatever hardware project he'll be taking on next. The stress ball would be useful if he didn't have super strength, but he thinks it might be good for someone else (Kido). Condiments... he's not sure how old they are, but he'll pinpoint that later. The tea packs are useful at least... ]

That's how it is...

[ He sifts through more things. A spark plug would be useful with his taser to make a makeshift bomb. Old socks, used runes, tubes of rainbow glitter...

...

He holds up unused balloons. ]

Don't you want these?

[parhellia]

[ Is that really how it is... Why is Terry using her gifts to make bombs... although, Kano had kept the spark plug specifically to throw at and destroy glass after he was taught how to use it, but then never did because it was something sentimental for him. A lot of these things are sentimental, from spark plug to the socks to the mints, though there's no way anybody's supposed to know that. ]

The balloons? No, I don't have antifreeze, so I don't want them. I threw away all the trash already, and am giving you everything else besides the important things: some glitter, the bandaids, and Shuuya's school notebook.

[overstrain]

What are you gonna do with the glitter?

[ Hm. He thinks other things can be used as recycling to make more useful products, so he'll keep the balloons too. He can always make water balloons full of alcohol and fling a molotov for maximum burning. ]

[parhellia]

Huh? Nothing. Did you want it too?

[ Would Terry make a bomb out of this? She thinks if Terry made a glitter bomb, his aim would be to blind somebody by getting it all in their eyes, instead of just making a mess. ]

It's pretty and shiny, so I wanted to keep it, that's all. It makes me happy.

[overstrain]

Oh, then keep it. I don't want it.

[ If it makes her happy, then by all means. He's not gonna take that away. He finishes sorting through everything and puts everything that he wants to keep in his backpack and everything else goes in a plastic bag for trash. ]

Wait here.

[ He'll go inside his house. Give him a minute... ]

[parhellia]

[ It'd better only be a minute, because being left outside all by herself in the middle of the street makes her kind of nervous with the townspeople being the way they are and actually being able to see her. So even if it's only a minute, when Terry leaves the house again, it's to a little crow swooping over from a fence to hop off Terry's head before turning back into herself again. ]

[overstrain]

[ Speed sure is useful when wanting to get things done fast. Terry comes out with a small box and hands it to Ala. ]

Merry Christmas, Ala.

[parhellia]

[ She takes the box in her hands, palms on the bottom to support what she believes to be the weight of three cinnamon rolls she decides to open and eat while they're still warm, whatever wrappings and ribbons that might be sealing up the box undone carefully so she can save it for later and then

what does she get, Boss? ]

[overstrain]

[ When Ala opens the box, there will be three cinnamon buns as he said before, a small, yellow christmas bell that makes a jingle just like any other bell, and a plain red ribbon.

Even though it was pretty much a last minute gift, Terry thought about how even the smallest things can make Ala happy too and a christmas bell is usually associated with good things. ]

[parhellia]

[ Ala makes her own fun, and could have possibly been happy with an empty box to turn herself small and curl up in like a cat— in fact, this box will probably be regifted to one of Souji's, while the ribbon gets tied around her wrist and the bell... With the bell, she faces the same problem that she did with Toki's cell phone charm: she has no idea how to hang this. So it gets wrapped in her fist instead, muffled jingling as she goes in for a hug. Once she figures it out, she'll be like a mini-Reaper you can hear jingling from miles away so you can run away from the warning. ]

Thanks, Boss! I'm going to go share these with Nero.

[overstrain]

[ Nero... Terry thinks back. Ah, the tough guy, wasn't it? That's nice. ]

Okay, have fun!

[ He's assuming she's leaving now so that the cinnamon buns don't get cold. ]
