The closer it got to Friday, the more Terry anticipated it. Not only would he get to introduce many of his favorite video games to Seung, he would also get to spend time with him. Potentially the other would also end up staying the night as well.
In preparation of the day, he had gotten a couple different snack foods, including a few healthy ones such as jerky, and a couple different types of drinks. He wasn't sure if the other Knight had tried or even liked American snacks just yet so he had tried to make sure there were a good different variety so he probably would find something he liked. He also gathered up some extra pillows and blankets so, if they chose to, they could make a nest for when they played.
When they day did arrive he make sure everything was set up, including a variety of games set to the side so Seung could pick a genre to try first, and waited for him to arrive.

He'd also anticipated the day and had made sure he wouldn't get lost, checking the directions on his phone and finding a slightly shorter and quick route to the others home. He'd packed a change of normal cloths as well as bed clothing. He had make up and facial supplies in his pack as well. His mp3 player was with him and the airbook he had, they were packed comfortably inside his clothing for safety so nothing broke or scratched. The case for his contacts and his glasses, in a case, were put into the pack as a last minute thing.
The other had mentioned it could turn into a sleep over so he had a pillow he would be taking with him. Tapping his foot he decided on a few extra things which got shoved into his pack right before he was leaving the door to head for the others home. He grabbed a bottle of v8 juice and the vitamins he took every morning. Those things went into his pack and he hurried for the door and took his leaving, calling out to his family as he left.
It was after some stares, due to the pillow perhaps, that he'd decided to take a cab to the others home. It wasn't such a bad idea, he got there faster, and was standing outside of the others door, pillow at his side, as he rung the bell and stood waiting in anticipation. He'd found, two nights back, a place for martial arts and had signed up, first class was the day after tomorrow so he had the weekend free - which was good. He didn't want to have to cut his time short or have to cal; this off, he'd been anticipating this so much since the ice skating rink.

When the door bell rung Terry called out to his family that he would get it then went to the door. When he opened it and found Seung on the other side he gave a small smile and stepped to the side to let him in. "I hope you didn't have any trouble finding the house." He said.
The entry way to the house was tiled with a cubby off to the side where coats and shoes ended up. Beyond that it fed into the living room where the rest of the house branched off. "Want any help carrying things?" He asked after taking in the bag and the pillow the other man was carrying.

"No, took cab after short walk." He answered and shuffled inside, looking for a place to take his shoes off and place them. The pillow in his hand was brought round and hugged to his chest as he stared around the inside and took in everything he could. The cubby spotted his shoes were taken right off and bending he used one hand to pick them up and shuffled right over to put them away.
Left in his socks he shook his head. "I'm good." His pack wasn't that bad and his pillow was easy enough to carry. Moving to the others side he pressed in close to peer further into the house over Terry's shoulder. "We'll be in your room?" He asked curious, turning his dark questioning eyes onto the other and also bringing their faces very close together.

Terry gave a hum in understanding as he watched Seung tuck his shoes into the cubby. "That's good, at least the cab saved you from having to walk the entire way." When Seung turned down his offer to help he gave a nod then started to move into the living room. "Yes we're going to be in my room for the most part. I can give you a tour after we drop off your stuff in my room if you like though." He said, looking over his shoulder at the other man.

"Mmm, that might be nice." So he knew where important rooms were, like the bathroom and such. It wouldn't be a good thing to get lost in the others home. He wasn't sure he could ask for help, and not due to the language barrier as it wouldn't really apply to asking where a room was. So a small tour would be nice he thought as he followed the other to his room. Trailing behind a bit as he held his pillow and glanced about at everything.
"People were staring as I was walking...cab was better." Less looks and it was also faster, which was nice as well. He wouldn't have minded the walk though, the cold wasn't too bad when you were in a nice warm puffy coat like he was, that he also would need to drop off somewhere...Turning back toward the cubby he'd dropped his shoes in he did quickly shed his coat and drop it there also before he moved to catch back up with the other.

"Alright, we'll do that afterwards then." Terry said with a nod then waited for the other to catch up after taking off his coat. "Guess they weren't used to seeing someone walking around with a pillow then." He lead Seung through the living room, into a hallway and up some stairs before moving to an opened door and standing by it. "This is my room, feel free to put your stuff down by the bed." He said with a smile as he moved into the room and off to the side so he could get by.

No, people likely weren't used to seeing someone walk about with a pillow, and it would have been the same back home. Though seeing someone in a school with one wasn't such an odd thing really, as school was like a second home there. Here that would be odd as well - very odd and perhaps insulting even? School lasted a lot less time though, for which he was glad though also surprised at first. He hadn't known, at first, what to do with his free time and had decided on a job rather quickly. He had needed something to do with his time.
Poking his head into the others room, before stepping inside, he went to find a place to put his things down. his pillow went onto the others bed while his pack went to the floor by the bed for now. Bending down and unzipping it he pulled out the small personal bottle of juice and stood. "Ok." Turning toward the other, a smile in place. He'd need a fridge for it, as it wasn't as good when warm taste wise, thankfully it wasn't something which would go bad when warm.

Terry gave a half smile when Seung turned to him and then he gestured around the room. "Well to start the tour off this is my room obviously." His room was kept neat, the bed was a queen size bed tucked into the back of the room. He had a desk with his computer siting on it and a chair tucked in so it was out of the way. The closet doors were of the sliding type with mirrors built in and it was currently closed, hiding his hanging clothes. He had an armoire for the rest of his clothes next to his desk and a long entertainment center with a couple different game systems and a list of games within the shelves. He then moved back into the hall way and waited for Seung to follow him out before pointing to the closed door that they had passed on the way to his room. "That is my brother Matt's room. He's not home at the moment but he will be back in a couple of hours." He then walked farther down the hall into a small sitting area. "This is basically just a sitting area where we can hang out if we don't want to stay in our rooms or in the living room." He then pointed to a door at the end. "There is the upstairs bathroom, and it is a full bathroom with a nice shower."

The others room was nice actually, the colors and style were nice, the room showed a bit more personality than his own room which was perhaps, aside from his collection of pictures, was rather bland but full. A look had been given to the gaming systems and the stack of games - impressive. He did like his games, it was good he was looking to work in a field he loved and had a passion for. He hoped he could do the same thing, he really did.
Listening to the other he took note of the other room - a brother. Ok, and they were not home, that he got. Nodding his head he continued at the others side and blinked at the next room...a sitting room...not a living room...so two common rooms? That was different. The bathroom he understood was upstairs but a full bathroom? After some thinking he figured what the other meant by it and nodded his head again. "Kitchen?" He asked after a moment. [

"It's back down stairs, I'll show you." Terry nodded and lead Seung back down the stairs. "First door down the stairs leads into my parents study. It's the only way into their room and personal bathroom." he said and pointed out the door then when they kept walking he pointed to the next door in the hall. "This is the main downstairs bathroom." He kept leading him out the hall and back into the living room. "This is the living room, the door on this wall leads to the kitchen and the door on that wall leads to the dining room." He pointed out which door was which and continued on into the kitchen.

as he followed Terry back downstairs he nodded to the explanation of the first door and what was behind it. He understood most of what he said, rooms and such were easy enough as he had needed to learn them and quickly. As more rooms were pointed out he drifted into the kitchen and toward the fridge he found in there. Dark eyes taking in everything, to see if anything really stood out as something he didn't know. He didn't see a rice cooker here, like they had at his home, so he had to wonder if they had things here that they didn't have at his home. All the while he was opening the fridge and putting his drink inside.
Once he was done he went to take a peek into the dining room, ever curious for little differences in things so he could ask, and learn. As he returned to the others side he took hold of one of the others shirt sleeves and held onto it. "We can go back now." Up to the others room and to try the others games.

"I have some snacks and drinks up in my room for us as well." Terry said as the other man put his drink in the fridge. He waited for Seung to finish looking around then gave him a smile and lead him back to his room. "Do you have any particular genre you would be interested in trying first?" He asked once they were back in his room. He moved to kneel by his entertainment center and showed off his games. He had arranged them by genre and then by difficulty so Seung could have an easy time picking.

"Nothing scary." He didn't know much on games and he didn't want something which would startle him, or turn him away from this, he wanted to enjoy things with the other. While Terry was on the floor, kneeling, and looking over the games Seung had moved to the others side and was leaning in fairly close.
"Something exciting." He added finally, after some time thinking. Biting gently on the left corner of his bottom lip. "You need citizen id number to play?" he asked the other, meaning social security number of course. He was curious as he didn't play games but he did know about some things concerning them back home, he had friends who did play.

Terry gave a nod when Seung said no horror and scooted the group of games that were either horror or had horror elements away. "No, in America everyone can play games of all types for the most part." He said and looked over at Seung with a half smile. "Of course minors are discouraged from playing M rated games but other then that anyone can play." He looked at his games thoughtfully for a moment. "Do you want to play a co-op game, where we both play at the same time, or something single player?"
