Why is he thinking? We all know this leads to bad things.

[Ken needed to think.  After all, there's lots to think about, this place, the weird ass stuff that happens here, not to mention the fact that people are getting back abilities that are superhuman, but perhaps they aren't out to kill him or cause mayhem or get immortality out of it. 

So, he went to the place he felt the most comfortable.  You can now find the former soccer pro doing the legit thing he does best, showing off his skills with a soccer ball at Tiger Field, the field out by the high school.  Why there instead of the park? Its cause it has goal posts of course.  He's camped out in the middle of the wide open space and is willing to do tricks for you.  Seriously, movement helps him cope.  So feel free to bother him, try and steal the ball, talk  or just applaud, he's actually quite good and doesn't mind an audience.

Right now he's just bouncing the ball off his head meditatively.]

[Learning by doing was the way Ken learned too, that and numerous knocks on the head, so it was by far the easiest way for him to teach too.]

Hey, you're getting the hang of it pretty fast. [He shifted his position] Now lets try something in not a straight line.

Heh. Well, I guess it's habit after Teacher beat us when we gave wrong answers?

[Ed gave a nervous laugh at that, before Ken mentioned kicking it and he nodded.]

So, like to the side or diagonally?

[Watches the other shift before giving another nod and kicking the ball to him, surprisingly agile and accurate despite his prosthetics due to his martial arts training when he was a kid.]

Well, some things you just gotta learn by being run over by other guys in cleats and being hit in the head with a ball all day. But really, beating? That's a little harsh. [And grounds for child abuse if Ed means it at all seriously]

But yeah, you never really know where your team mate that you're passing to is going to be in relation to you.

[Ed just gave another nervous laugh in response, he knew that despite how strict and tough she was on the brothers she had come to care for them almost as much as, if just actually as much as if they were her own sons, over the years they had known her.]

I guess that makes sense though, you're right. So, you just need to get it past the goalie person into that net?

[He nods]

Yeah, that's the basic goal of the game. Makes it sound easy doesn't it.
