Who: Trunks with Giru and people, maybe you
Where: various places
When: throughout the month
Format: [ be brave and gimme gimme power ]
semi-open
Summary: Trunks doing stuff and thangs with Giru and some other people. Closed prompts within threads with an open prompt or two for whoever wants to come across the pair. o/


( A; TRICK OR TREAT?? )
[ Whether or not the tradition is one held within Verens, Giru has come to learn of Halloween, especially the whole asking for and receiving treats part of it. So, having tossed a small white sheet over him and a single hole cut in it for his eye to see out of, he floats around merchant's square (as a ghost) with a small pail in his tiny hand, going up to various people with a dee dee dee dee dee! treats please! said rather hopefully as he holds his pail out, expecting to be gifted treats.

Treats that are, you know, of the metallic type. But you obviously know that's what he wants, right? ]



( B; HERE AND THERE )
[ At any point throughout the month, there's a few places where one might run into Trunks. If you're of age, you might find him in a bar either in Verens or Shaarnath one night, sitting by himself at the bar with a glass of whatever's on tap, mostly keeping to himself but not exactly looking as though he'll shun anyone who makes chit chat with him. Whatever coffee shop he's holed himself up in is another place to find him, wearing his glasses and surrounded by quite a few stacks of books (both from whatever shop and his own) on the table, scribbling away this plan and that plan, all while making sure to sip on that hot drink and take a bite from whatever sandwich he sometimes forgets he has on that plate; careful not to trip over any extra books near him on the floor. The other place you might find him is out in the market square with stacks of hay or rather large milk cans hoisted over his shoulder, loading up a buggy for an elderly couple. Giru's there to help of course, pulling a basket of apples along... until he accidentally tips it over and said apples roll everywhere down the square. Well, he tried. ]

[Trunks doesn't quite sprawl out the same way as his younger self, but he does take the opportunity to sit down, sipping at a bottle of water while he tries to take deep breaths. Training with his other self is a lot different than teaching Mai how to use her ki, and he's exerted himself a lot more than he has for a while doing so.

He could only wish that Super Saiyan had been easy for him. Things...might have been a lot different if they were.]

It wasn't easy for me. You were a lot stronger when you were a kid than I was.

[What the difference was, he wasn't sure. If anger and pain was the true source of a Saiyan's power, like Gohan had taught him...like he used to this day...he couldn't really say why his other self had been so strong so young.]
fighting4afuture: (super: what...what is that...)

[personal profile] fighting4afuture 2018-10-04 04:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't know either. He knows that he's been training for longer, more consistently, so that's what explains the difference now.]

Not so much, but it does mean that you've mastered Super Saiyan, and that means it should be easier for you to go to the next level. If it works like I think it does, anyway, without using anger like I do.

[Now they just have to get his base level to the point where it'll trigger the transformation...he thinks. He kinda stumbled onto this, himself, but he spoke with Goku and Gohan on the matter in the past.]

[It's a good thing for Giru that Rokurou was in town to check out that museum for potential guard job opportunity, otherwise that would have been one heck of a long trip for the poor little robot. But that also means the daemon is quite surprised when he hears that familiar little voice and sees him coming.]

Whoa, whoa, Giru? Slow down—what's wrong with Trunks?
rokubro: (‡ 098)

[personal profile] rokubro 2018-10-03 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[What—

Rokurou is still confused, but hearing that Trunks was in danger and something attacked him was all he needed to know. Now on high alert, he looks at Giru.]


Lead the way!

[And he'll be running after the little robot. TAKE HIM TO TIMMY, LASSIE—I MEAN to Trunks, Giru!]

[One Steven Q. Universe was wandering down the market square, when suddenly he witnessed apples rolling all over the place!]

Oh no! Not the apples!! [Anything but the apples! Steven dives forward and then slides a few feet on his belly while trying to grab a bunch of the rolling apples!]
jamminshield: (lurking starry eyes)

[personal profile] jamminshield 2018-10-03 02:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Whoa! [Steven's alright! Mostly, he's impressed by the robot in general and tries to get a look at him from underneath his robotic feet, with stars in his eyes.]

Robot!! [He cheers! And then after a beat, he thinks to add-] Oh, I'm okay! Check out this robot guy!
jamminshield: (Default)

[personal profile] jamminshield 2018-10-05 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Steven pulls himself up to his feet and cradles some apples in one arm while he waves to Giru cheerily.]

Hi there Giru! I'm Steven. I get carried away sometimes too! It happens, even when you're not a super cool robot!

[ Oh joy, the little robotic thief is back. Thought it's harder to be annoyed at the machine when it's decked out in what's either a costume or a housekeeping incident gone awry. The pail might speak to the former. ]

Guess they didn't explain to you that Halloween is only one day, huh?
showyouthesight: (heart you caught)

[personal profile] showyouthesight 2018-10-09 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Not really. I've never seen a robot interested in Halloween before. Too bad I don't carry a lot of metal around with me. Doesn't go well with swimming.
showyouthesight: (I was over)

[personal profile] showyouthesight 2018-10-12 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ Rin frowns, feeling a little bad he doesn't have much to offer the robot. It reminds him too much of a begging pet. ]

Is there anything else he likes other than metal?

ballseeker: (blame the game it's all the same)

coffee shop!

[personal profile] ballseeker 2018-10-08 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)

[ It would seem that the brains part of Trunks brains and brawn won out more than Bulma may have suspected, the more she watches and builds alongside her newly aged-up son. Bulma is by no means complaining - in fact it's just one more tick on her list of reasons she can forever laugh in Vegeta's face about his many speeches about how she shouldn't have too many hopes about her weaker genes coming through.

(Yes, he hadn't given her any of that kind of lip in years, but like a very salty elephant, Bulma will literally never forget Vegeta's particularly shit-headed comments from early on.)

Bulma's grabbed an iced black coffee from the counter before picking her way back through the scattered books to settle back among her own notes and drawings, scribbles more like in some cases. There is zero chance that Bulma is not going to find some way to revive Capsule in some iteration here in Verens, even if that means scavenging parts and bits and pieces out of caves and other parts of the world where available. The workshop space was slowly beginning to build up with projects and drafts, papers with calculations posted all over the walls, though now there's more than one desk in the space for herself, Trunks, and whoever else might drop by to try and work something out in their little group of people.

Bulma stops in her latest line of equation writing, head tipping and a little frown crossing her face before she offers the bit of paper to Trunks. ]


Check that for me. Something seems off.
ballseeker: (you tryna make shit so concrete)

[personal profile] ballseeker 2018-10-09 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)

That's most of the adjustments I've had to make since being here. The difference in available materials and power sources is a real cramp in my style. [ Not that it stops her from working around it at a near fanatical rate. If there's one brain that appreciates challenges it's definitely Bulma's.

After so long of producing without too much in the way of a challenge except her pet projects, this is practically an invigorating step. ]


If I wasn't fairly sure by experience that Space is full of aliens I wouldn't like to run in to I'd say I was probably jealous of your trip, but..

[ Hold on, light bulb moment, Bulma sets her coffee down and scrabbles for a piece of paper to start writing, brows creasing a little in her concentration. ]

Speaking of alien tech.. maybe this bit from Vegeta's scouter... might work..
ballseeker: (Default)

[personal profile] ballseeker 2018-10-10 11:33 am (UTC)(link)

Well I can never be sure, between you and your father. [ Plus.. well. Briefs were often subjects to flights of fancy. She'd gone to Namek both as tech support for her ship and because she was too damn curious for her own good - just like Bulma showing up to see Frieza, or showing up to see the Androids with her infant in toe.

Honestly, if she weren't so sure that Vegeta would be recognized in a bad way nearly everywhere they went, she might insist he come with her on a little space adventure of their own.

Trunks of her time would probably be easy enough to convince. ]


No, not since the shop .. blow up. [ Which.. could have been mediated if Bulma ever learned to stop, but there was no fun in that. ]

For.. older you's sake I'm trying to keep it that way. He deserves a break from having to worry about me, I think.
