[Normally, the Balladeer is an early riser. Today, though, he stays in bed for a long while. By the time he gets up and finishes a long, hot shower, everything with Benjamin has already been dealt with. Oh, well.
Upon arriving in the kitchen himself, the Balladeer looks listlessly through the things he could attempt to cook, and probably burn, and ultimately just makes himself a cup of tea. While waiting for the kettle to boil, he squints critically at the menu posted on the wall.]
Oh, is it...Father's Day?
[That's. Weird.
When his tea is done, he takes it to the cafeteria briefly...but then notices someone just walking out the door? Can we do that now? The Balladeer, mug in hand, approaches the door, hesitates, and then pushes it open and walks into the courtyard. He stands there, right in front of the door, for a little while, looking around at the trees and flowers and up at the sky. Out loud, he concludes:]
I just realized that I've literally never been outside before.
[Also weird! Today's a weird and sad day! But at least being outside is sort of interesting. He spends much of the day just wandering around outside. You can find him basically anywhere - standing in the baseball diamond, wandering around in the woods. He probably briefly gets lost there, but eventually ends up in the garden, where he frowns at the benches before approaching the central tree, choosing to sit on the ground with his back to it instead. He'll just be here for a while, taking it all in.]
