WHO: Tina Belcher and you
WHERE: Various places throughout the Porter cities, except for Jeopardy
WHEN: Early January
WHAT: Two more of Tina's closest friends have disappeared, so she's a mixture of Sadsack and Angry and might get into a bit of trouble in the meantime.
WARNINGS: TEENAGE ANGST and being sad over lost friends

1. Maurtia Falls #001

Home is a difficult place to be right now, now that Angus has disappeared. He'd been around the entire time Tina had been, and she's always taken for granted that he's just going to be there. So she's going to alternate between being mopey, doing things like lying on the couch and groaning, and trying to keep busy by stress-cooking and cleaning. At least the household will be clean and well-fed?

2. Mischief - Porter city of your choice

Tina's still hanging around with Team Skull, as much as she tries to disentangle from them and remind herself she's not suited for gang life. Perhaps that will change, though, if this place keeps throwing crap at her. After Iris and Ango's departures, Tina can be found stalking around some of the Porter cities, Skull cap and bandana to obscure her identity, being egged on by a small group of grunts in various bits of teenage mischief- like pushing over trash cans or using rotten produce or soda to make sticky messes.

3. Horse/mischief cleanup - Porter city of your choice

Other times, Tina feels bad about whatever trouble she's causing and tries to overcompensate by taking out her beloved Jake, a placid piebald miniature pony, and visiting the Porter cities. He'll sometimes don a unicorn costume, complete with colorful chalk in his mane. Or else she can be found picking up trash, even if it wasn't her specific fault, with a frenzied energy that's unlike her.

Adam smiles. She seems to be a lot happier than when he first saw her, so that's pretty good. He figures there's not much they can do about her missing friends, but at least she seems to be feeling better.

"Bet you can do it all, if you put your mind to it."

"I know I can," Tina says confidently. "I'm a strong woman. And who knows, I might decide on something less intense before I'm actually in school.:

There she is. That's much better. It makes him feel a little bit more confident, too.

"Bet Jake here believes in you too. Don't you, Jake?"

As if he understands the question, Jake swishes his tail and whickers in reply.

"Someone always will," Tina affirms.

"Are you feeling better then?" The boy asks, idly petting Jake's mane.

"I am. Thank you," Tina replies, reaching into her pockets to give her horse a treat for being so well-behaved. "Sometimes it does help to stop and think of what I can do, not just what I can't."

Adam nods, donning a faint smile, though this feels like the sort of thing that might make him think too. About things he can do, about what he can make. (He can, quite literally, make anything he wants, but it's a lot more challenging and a lot more satisfying to create things the normal way.)

"Well, whenever you write your stories, I'll read them, if you'd like."

"I'll be sure you let you know," Tina assures him. "I'm never going to get better if I don't just do something."

"Yeah. And I bet you'll find other things to do, too." He wonders what he can do, in times like these. Despite his capabilities, his wants are usually much more down to Earth. Things you'd expect from a normal little boy. Maybe he'll pick up writing stories again.
