Welcome to Gaia! ::

The news paper hit the table with a soft, rustly thump, next to the musty rubbermaid tub with a strip of tape marked 'mugs'. From inside the marginally translucent tub, a big fat penguin mug in a red scarf with snowflakes peered incredulously at the Headlines. Terrorists Strike Again... only the terrorists in question weren't Youma, or Negaverse agents. No the terrorists were Senshi.

"I swear this isn't the wreck I left...."

He sighed, clicking open the lid of the mugs open and starting to arrange the colorful array of mismatched mugs, most of which were strange, seasonal novelties that had clearly seen much use.

A turkey and a grinning jack-o-lantern thunked onto the table top, joined a moment later by the penguin, wo appeared no less incredulous about things now that it was free of it's rubber prison.

"Cordy, maybe you had the right idea...." He had lost track of the girl he had once patrolled with, chatted and laughed and jogged with. Things had just sort of... happened. New senshi came along, and he'd felt it was as good a time as any to go to college... and his family had chosen to move. He was glad of it now, even though most of them didn't understand why he'd come back.

He wasn't entirely sure why he had. Why come back to a city that had no love for him? Maybe he felt a little like the 'real' Odysseus, drawn home to fight for his place against people who would see him dead... or maybe he was on a different leg of the journey, fighting monsters to find out where home was.

He tugged the cell phone out of his pocket, clunky, unattractive, it wasn't as nice as his new sleek I-phone... but still.

"I'm going to make some coffee." He decided. There was still plenty to unpack, and he wanted to do it caffeinated.
