( Introspection )

Is it wrong to start feeling like maybe after we find a way home that you might not want to leave after all? [There's a small pause before he awkwardly looks off to the side.]
It's just-[there's a sigh.] I dunno. I've been here for a whole year and yeah-there are things I wish I never had experienced while being here.

[He's quick to add:]

But, other things have been great too. Maybe it's about taking the bad with the good. I just-I dunno. The longer I'm here the less I want to go back home.

[The way Cross sounds his tone just seems slightly desperate. Not wanting to leave but at the same time wanting to be free of the worse stuff. He kind of has to laugh a bit at that. Wow, he kind of sounds like a downer doesn't he? Okay happy things now. He'll turn his conflicted expression into a half smile.]




Maybe it's just cause I don't want to lose the friends I've made here. After all, you guys are pretty awesome. Like a nine out of ten on the awesome scale.

Third Gadget: Homesick [Written/Action]

 Anonymous; Written

[Cross has been here for two months and as much as he's trying to keep himself from thinking it, it's already weaseled inside his brain like a bug and decided to put those thoughts there. He's been pretty lonely since first getting here and while he's been making a handful of friends it doesn't really help with not having his brother here. His brother was his only real best friend back home and from what he's been getting, people have friends and family from home in Luceti. 

Everybody's got somebody right? So why is it that he just feels like crap? 

So instead of stewing in his bad emotions he decides to put up a written entry, but because he doesn't want people to worry about him, he's doing it anonymously.]

Hey, I've been wondering something. How does everyone feel about living here? I mean, does anyone ever get homesick for their own world? Or is everyone okay with being here since they've got somebody? But if you don't, do you ever wish you had that one person that means the most to you to be here? But, is wanting that a terrible thing? 

[He finishes writing it and stares for a moment. Yeah...maybe he'll leave it and he just shuts the book.]

[Action]

[So, Cross is going to try and deal with his depression like a grown up. By hanging upside down in a tree for part of the day and letting the blood rush to his head.

When he's become dizzy and gets a headache, he'll go to the smithy and will be working on making more throwing knives. He's making more than he should, granted he's probably got too many now. So any of the finished knives are starting to pile up on a table nearby. When that gets boring, he's going to try and work on one of his spare mechanical arms. He's attempting to add a laser like Rin suggested. It's not working out so well.

When that's done he's going by the convenience store to pick up dinner for the night.

When all that's said and done, he's hanging out in the library pulling out some fantasy books and holing up in a corner with a book fort he made. He's totally mature, okay?  He'll just be reading the whole time.

Any other time he can be found walking about Luceti.]
