Techno pressed send, asking for his three best friends to call him. Now he had to wait, which meant he could do something productive, which meant he was going to read a book.
He's improving his vocabulary, that's productive enough.
After finishing a particularly emotional chapter, he needed a break. He needed something new to do, because doing completely nothing for more than a second is painfully boring. His stomach complained about the lack of food for the day. New task found!
He got up and grabbed the cold toast from earlier and put it in the microwave. He got out butter and a glass of orange juice.
Yes it's 1015 pm. Yes he's eating breakfast. This is fine.
He let his mind wander to what he would do if they came to California. They wouldn't want to stay in his apartment the whole time.
He was pretty near to LA but that wasn't the best thing to see here. It's such a long drive to get to Northern California too. Maybe hotels and a slow trip north? Maybe they could ca- the microwave beeped.
He retrieved his food and fully prepared it for consumption. He'd work out the details of a visit later with his friends. Though now he was getting excited for something that might not happen.

Wilbur came back to his house when some ducks determined he was unwelcome at the park. He'd bring bread next time.
//don't give ducks bread, it's not good for them
He opened his phone to see a ping from Techno. He wondered what the blade wanted. He never pinged them.
He plopped onto his couch and read the message. A simple, "can you guys call?"
Well now he was worried. It was 3 hours ago. Was techno in trouble? Did he need help? Why did he want them to call him? He quickly pinged Phil and Tommy to get them on call.
He called and Techno picked up immediately. "I waited hours," came an uncharacteristically jovial Technoblade. He sounded... hyped? Something good happened?
Wilbur was first to respond. "You had me worried! I thought you were in trouble and that I had fucked up by being unavailable at the park!"
"Oh. Sorry," Techno hummed, "Anyways where is- nevermind Phil just joined."
"Hi guys! Techno what do you need?"
"I need tommy to be here too, but y'all will do. I have an idea. Would you like to come visit California?"
"I- w-what?" Wilbur stuttered.
"Come meet up in California."
"That sounds fun! Kristin wanted to go see her family soon anyway so that works out."
A noise let them know Tommy had joined. "Hi guys."
Wilbur frowned as he immediately noticed Tommy sounded sick. His voice was raspier than usual and kinda quiet.
"Tommy are you ok?" he asked.
"W- uh yes! Yeah I'm fine! Just tired. A big man needs sleep and I didn't get much."
Sus, but...
"Oh ok. Techno wants us to come to California."
Wilbur would bring it up later.
"In America?" Tommy scoffed. Phil, completely skipping over the obvious sarcasm, replied, "Yes."
"I don't wanna."
"Bruhhhh. It's not that bad here. It's bad but not if you only stay a short period of time."
Very convincing. So convincing Tommy didn't answer for a moment.
"But it's America."
Wilbur jumped back in, "Well it works out for Phil, and I want to see Death Valley. You'd be the only one not coming."
"What is Death Valley??? That sounds cool as fuck!"
"It's not re-," Techno started, then considered the strategy of not unconvincing Tommy to come, "It's great actually! You should come!"
"Techno are you feeling ok? You're awfully energetic," said Wilbur.
"Guys please come. I haven't slept at night in weeks and I haven't seen the sun in longer."
"Oh my god- I will come. But my sleep schedule is as fucked as yours, mate."
"HA HA! Ok Blade I'll come. I gotta grab my phone for my calendar though. Be right back."
Tommy made some shuffling noises so Wilbur assumed he left.
Wilbur thought about what to do while there, "I do want to see some things in California. You have the largest tree, lowest point in North America, and highest point in North America."
Techno immediately resisted. "We are not hiking up that mountain. Nope. Nuh uh. Not happening. Seeing the tree? Yeah that's doable. Oh! Which reminds me, would you guys want to slowly go from Southern California to Northern California while camping along the way?"
"Yes," from Wilbur. Very sure of it.
"Uhhh, how long are we coming for?" was Philza's less immediate reply.
"I- I don't know."
"A week? Week and a half?"
"Hey guys I'm back, how long is the trip and when?" Tommy shuffled back in his seat.
Phil remembered a bit of Tommy's school schedule so he made a suggestion. "10 days, next Friday? You go on vacation Wednesday, right?"
"Yeah. Ah shit. My phone died. Lemme get my charger."
More shuffling indicated Tommy leaving again.
"Ok! I can by the tickets for me and Tommy. Phil do you have enough for you and Kristin?"
"Yeah."
"Then we'll be there Saturday probably."
"Ok. Pog. I can't wait." Techno was beaming.
"Ok. See you guys soon!"
"Bye Phil! Bye Wilbur!"
Phil and Techno disconnected. Wilbur sat smiling before remembering Tommy had left.
"Tommy doesn't know yet though?? Why'd they leave?" He casually asked himself out loud.
Wilbur waited for Tommy to come back. Tommy was able to go and Wilbur updated him on the plans.
This was going to be fun.
