I'm a shape-shifter. Mother kind of just hijacked that after I got kidnapped so I wouldn't be able to go anywhere.

[Deliberate evasion of the question, yup.]

[ SHE SEES WHAT YOU DID THERE. ]

Jesus, Teddy. If you need to talk to someone, I'm here. I won't tell anyone what you say.

[ If he doesn't want to worry his boyfriend with it, that is. She wouldn't, if she were him. ]

I don't know, to be honest. There's not much more to say, I just got myself trapped in a shape I didn't choose and couldn't get out of. By something that still looked like my mom at the time.

Do you like wine?

[notasaviour]

I never really got a taste for wine, no. Beer or spirits, mostly. Why?

I do. You're old enough to drink, right?

[notasaviour]

I... actually am. Wow, I'd kind of forgotten my birthday even happened.

When was it? Now we have an excuse to go out for a drink and talk about nothing.

[notasaviour]

A couple of months ago now. In the middle of being on the run, before I left the group.

Do you want a real celebration? It's worth asking, a birthday is a birthday.

[notasaviour]

I did get one, it just got interrupted by aliens. I guess it might be nice to have one that didn't end in a fight and Kate sneaking off to smooch Noh.

You'll have to regale me with all kinds of stories. I'm about as out of the loop on things as anyone can be.

[notasaviour]

I'm not sure there's that much to tell. Most of the fun stuff happened after I decided to take some time out.

Oh? Then I'd love to just hear about you, Teddy.

Talk later, yeah? When you've settled.
