Don't Stop and ride upon the wind [OTA]

Who: Goten and OTA
When: August 22-open
Where: Various places
What: Typical Goten things / Catchall

(A) Training – abandoned temples/around

[Be it alone or with Shizuo, Izumo or Hitsu; Goten really does enjoy training. It’s an outlet for all his energy and for a small kid he has a lot of it to spare. He had spent a couple days trying to sneak up on Izumo and it took a lot more effort than he thought. Even with the use of the shinki spell, Umbra, that wasn’t enough to sneak up on the older shinki. So that just meant he needed to train more, right?

This time around he’s trying to work on a little bit of everything. Borderlines for a while, ki Chi blasts, punching through large rocks or broken structures of the abandoned temples. When he isn’t darting around, he’s catching his breath on the ground or chugging down one of the water bottles he brought along.]

(B) New addition - Icarus - Various places

[There has been a new addition to the Forseti household. A purple dragon had shown up in Goten’s room a few days prior and though it was a surprise the two were quick to become friends. If anything, the dragon almost seemed overly friendly like he already knew the younger shinki before but Goten didn’t pay too much mind to it. This wasn’t something appeared in his room randomly anyway. First it was Nimbus, then those weird green beans and now a dragon! Finding a name for the dragon is a bit of an issue since everything Goten comes up with is grunted or snorted at. Who knew dragons could be so moody about names?

Regardless, the pair can keep themselves entertained fairly well. Various games of fetch, to racing around temples or just wrestling around with Goten laughing. The dragon may be nameless but it is ridiculously friendly and quick to perk up to new faces.]

(C) Chickens - Near Aditi's temple

[The chickens, for whatever reason, are one of the charms for Goten of Sharak’s place. He is free to visit almost any time he wants as the barrier surrounding Aditi’s temple does let him come and go. He forgets the barrier is even there half the time. Especially when it comes to running around and chasing a few of the hens or running away from the mean rooster that looks over them.

So, when one hen gets loose and ventures out from the temple, Goten is after it almost instantly. But chasing the poor bird is just getting it further and further from the coop. Already dirty with white feathers sticking out of his hair, Goten dives for the hen just as it hops out of his reach. No matter how fast or strong the young shinki gets, the chickens are just amazing at dodging him. Rubbing his face clean of dirt on the back of his sleeve, Goten continues running after the flightless bird.]

Come back! I don’t think you’re supposed to go this far from Sharak’s temple! You’re gonna get lost!

(D) - Blond is the new black - Forests/Training Grounds/Near Hitsugaya's temple

[Getting use to turning blond has been something that has been at the top of Goten’s priority list. Since the accident with Izumo, he’s been really worried about this form but he does have better control of it now thanks to a certain child-sized white-haired Shinigami.

With the advice, he’s trying to keep up this blonde form for at least the entire day as instructed. It started in the morning and now in the later afternoon he is looking a little tired. Blond spiky hair and bright green eyes replace his usual dark features. Anyone that can sense or feel energy will fill it practically radiating from Goten. He is staying clear of the temples though, staying more towards the forests, abounded temples or a little closer to Hitsugaya’s place just to be safe and not to break anything. But he’s trying to just have fun by looking for frogs or things to do. He had planned to try and study but after accidentally tearing one of the math books in half which is on the ground a few feet away....yeah he doesn’t want to make Yukine or Hakkai mad.]

(E) Water-guns - Various Temples/Places

[The gift from Yona has been one of the best ones he’s ever gotten! Like any kid with a new toy, he must use them! Sneaking around various temples that belong to other gods, Goten keeps an eye out for an unsuspecting target. The only people that are safe from the demi saiyan’s water guns are Sharak and Aymeric, everyone else is free game. Typically taking aim from the sky thanks to his ability to fly or ducking around something quick, he squirts the water gun before running off and trying to stay out of sight.]

(F) - Wildcard
((If none of these work for you or you have something else in mind just throw it here. Goten is pretty active so he literally goes just about everywhere. Feel free to post w/e here or hit me up via plurk

skytied or pm. This also serves as a random catch all for things.))

[Zeno happens to be passing by when Goten uses A borderline.]

Hey!

[For a second, Zeno looks thoughtful. But it passes quickly; he gets right to his point.]

You know so much! What helps you learn best? What makes a teacher good?

[He's been a rather dilatory god...]

[Goten blinks up at him, perking up because he regonizes the blond dragon almost instantly.]

Zeno! Hey!

[He smiles at him. It's been a little while since he's seen the god around though his question does make him thoughtful.]

Hm? Borderlines were hard for me at first but they're sorta easy now. I've had lots of good teachers like Yukine, Hakkai and Izumo helped me. I guess...what makes a good teacher is someone that is willing to keep trying with you no matter how long it takes and give good advice. I betcha you could be a good teacher if you wanted, Zeno.

[who said we were talking about Zeno?! Not that he's offended; he grins and bows at the compliment.]

No, Zeno gives terrible advice~ Tried to teach someone how to ignore hunger pains once...!

[He takes a seat on a particularly soft bit of earth and crosses his legs in front of him attentively.]

Borderlines are what shinki should learn soonest, right? What made them hard at first and what makes them easy now?

[Goten stares at him, eyes widening in horror. Wait, what?]

.....Zeno, I don't think thats a possible thing to do. You should just eat...

[Ignoring hunger pains? That sounds horrible. That is terrible advice. Just eat! Goten could never do that. He'd die.

Shaking his head and moving on...]

Borderlines are imporant cause they can hold off ayakashi. Uh, I donno about other shinki but borderlines sorta feel similar to chi blasts for me. Instead of drawing a line, I was shooting blasts of energy at ayakashi. I had to focus really hard on what I wanted to do or I'd just blast everything. I had practice a lot...

[He closes his hand into a small fist before extending his middle and index finger. With a swift motion, Goten draws a line between Zeno and himself. The transparent blue wall shines brightly. He's not good at this teacher stuff, as much as he wants to be. But he's trying!]

-And I just gotta think that I wanna protect whats on this side of the line and keep the bad stuff on the other side away from me and my friends.

He was a silly boy, but he wanted very much to try....!

[though Zeno won't scare Goten further.]

Chi, hm? Zeno knows of it, the way it's talked about in temples...

[Zeno brings his hands together, then forces them out toward Goten. A gold shield shimmers around the kid briefly, before turning invisible.]

Zeno wonders if this god's power isn't a bit similar to chi or borderline. Maybe Zeno ought to be practicing with Kaya.

[Goten said that he was allowed to visit whenever, and Emizel said that he would. So he finally did.]

[Albeit he probably should have mentioned sooner about looking for Aymeric's temple from the sky again. Hopefully this was the right place... It looks relatively smaller than Emizel's own domain, which also makes it a bit more difficult to land. But he is careful not to smash anything.]

[Luckily, Emizel doesn't have to wonder if he has the right place for too long. Goten is outside crawling through the bushes looking for a certain white fluff ball of a cat. He isn't sure if the dragon had started the feline too much but Goten just wanted to patch things up. Maddragonra wouldn't be replaced no matter how cool the dragon was.

He blinks at the shadow looming over the temple just before Emizel lands and pokes his head out of the bushes. Goten's face lights up and he quickly comes tumbling out and waving to the god]

Emi! Hey! Emiiii!

[Goten lets his own borderline fall as Zeno lifts his hands. He blinks at the shimmering light around him before looking back to Zeno. Whatever that was, it looked coo.!]

Maybe! That would be really neat if you could make borderlines to. If Kaya needs more help, I'll help you whenever you need, Zeno!

[He smiles wholeheartedly at the god.]

[It wasn't just Goten who was surprised; the resident hawks began squawking and crying out and flying across the grounds. But unlike the shinki boy, they were more panicked at the strange person. It's enough to get the attention of Aymeric, who was in his gardening gear and curious about--WHAT IN HALONE'S NAME IS THAT???]

What's going on?

[Today just might be a training day between Hitsu and Goten.

The Captain isn't letting up today either, making sure not to go easy on the shinki. It might have been going on for a while with the god gently coaxing Goten to turn into a Saiyan again as there was no point to hold back in this training session.]

[Um...A giant reaper monster is certainly what it isn't.]

Goten!! [Emizel had to settle with a type of telepathy to speak while he was like this. But he was glad that he found the tiny shinki. Emizel was certain he arrived to the right place now.]

[The way Emizel was sitting on the ground with tail wagging made him appear less scary. As he leaned forward his body was shrinking back to its normal size until he was just right to play with Goten for a second. Not even noticing when Aymeric arrived.] Huh?

[He's getting better each time they train. The blond transformation is practically natural for Goten and he's getting the hang of it at lightening speed. It's like his body knows it but his mind still is adjusting. But each training session he is learning and improving. It's unknown to the young shinki but his saiyan blood is naturally helping with that. Each time they fight and Goten is injured or worn out his body is getting stronger faster thanks to those genetics.

Goten is doing his best to keep up with Hitsugaya. To any outsiders with untrained eyes the two are practically blurs that reappear here and there at certain impacts. Goten moves swiftly and appears behind the god, already charging a blast as he quickly releases it at nearly point blank range.]

[While Goten doesn't seem to notice, Toushirou does. It's always been good to be able to study his opponent and Goten is no different, especially since Toushirou does have more of a sense for this to be able to help Goten get better. So every time that Goten gets stronger, the god can't help but let more of his own power out, nothing too noticeable aside from how he's not holding back bit by bit.

When Goten fires the Ki blast from behind him, Toushirou quickly spins around, his sword unleashing a wave of ice to counter it. It causes a bit of a cloud to appear, but he doesn't let up as he swings his sword again, a dragon of ice flowering from its tip and racing towards the shinki.]

[That giant reaper monster death god is his new friend! Luckily, he's already seen the form before so it just makes the young shinki all the more eager to greet him.

Goten makes a beeline from the bushes over to Emizel, the death god should be grateful he stops just sort of tackling him out of excitement. That's mostly thanks to Aymeric's voice reaching him. He stops next to Emizel, looking between the gods before waving Aymeric over.]

Aymeric! Come over here and met Emi! He's a friend of mine!

[Goten can't remember if they had met, but maybe Emizel mentioned it? Oh well, time for round two if so.]

[Goten frowns at the dragon, he's usually quick to move out of the way and then spend time evading the attack. But not this time. Clenching his fists and gritting his teeth; the golden aura erupts around him, glowing brighter then before. He charges head first at the dragon, flying into the mouth of it. His aura shines bright against the contrast of the ice almost like fire as he focus his ki around himself protectively. It's something he learned from Hakkai a while back but only recently started trying again.

He cups both his hands together as he flies into the dragon.]

Ka....me...Ka...me....HAAAAA!

[That fimilar blue ki swells in his hands as he thrusts the beam forward in hopes of tearing through the ice dragon and going for Hitsugaya. Even if the beam doesn't hit, Goten is following right after it.]

[By the time Goten reaches for where Toushirou is, the god isn't there. In fact, he's somewhere above Goten, a white aura surrounding the god as his own eyes seem to have turned brighter, a tinge of white in teal eyes. But there isn't an abrupt release of reiatsu, not yet, and Toushirou holds out his sword as ice pillars suddenly erupt from around Goten.

The pillars are tall, stretching from the ground and disappearing into the sky.

It spins around the shinki, seemingly a semblance of an ice prison. As Toushirou twists his sword at an angle, the pillars suddenly stop and begin to close in on Goten.]

[Suddenly, the responsible adult is in the way. Sharak, where did you come from? Don't worry about it, she's there now, with her usual frown.]

I could only be so lucky.

[Well, actually, the hens are fairly pleasant when they're not being menaced by monkeys. Sharak kneels down and picks the chicken up as it attempts to run past her, since she's apparently harder to dodge than a Super Saiyan.]

I hope you're all getting along, Goten... Chicken.

[Be friends, both of you.]

[How is she suddenly there!?

Goten blinks, digging his heels into the ground as he has to skid to an abrupt stop in an attempt to not slam into the god. Luckily he manages to lose the speed but stopping does take a slight bump and practically hugging Sharak's waist to steady himself. He probably could have moved to the side or kicked off into the air but who thinks about those things?

Instantly he lets go and raises his head to look up at her.]

Sharak! Whoa, where'd you come from?

[His gaze goes to the chicken as he stares in awe]

You got her!

[Magic grown up powers, Goten.

Sharak tucks the squawking chicken under her arm, upside-down, so she can put one hand on Goten's head when he's suddenly attached to her.]

Wasn't I here the whole time?

[Was she?? Who knows. She looks down at the chicken, still squirming to get free, though there's not much it can do about that in it's current position. It's possible the chickens are used to this kind of treatment from Sharak by now.]

Is that what you were trying to do?

[Goten blinks, staring at the pillars. Turning his head right he looks around for some kind of exit and even tries fly out from between the pillars but that doesn't quite work. Instead, he floats back to the middle, looking at the ice that surrounds him and gritting his teeth. Lifting his head, he looks back up towards Hitsugaya as the pillars do close around him.

Everything goes still for a few moments before Goten's faint shouting can be heard thorugh the ice as one wall of ice starts to crack. The crack extends along the side leaking golden light and sparks of electricity.]

HHHHAAAAAAAAAAHHH!

[The ice prison shatters with large chucks of ice falling away. Goten's aura settles back around him. He floats there, panting a bit but with a small smile tugging on the corner of his mouth.]

That's all you got, Hitsu?

[He's teasing mostly but they are still fighting. Moving, Goten catches one of the large shards of falling ice, its bigger then him, and throws it at Hitsugaya just for good measure.]

Edited 2017-09-11 20:55 (UTC)

[Teach him how you do that. He wants to know about magic grown up powers too!]

You were?

[He might look even more amazed or confused now. He's honestly not sure. Sure they were around her temple but he hadn't seen her around.]

Yeah, I was trying to catch her before she got too far away from your place. Without Mr.Rooster with her, I don't think she'd do good this far away.

[But he might be at fault for startling the poor hen into running away in the first place. Really he just wants to play! It's harmless.]

Not nearly enough, Goten.

[You haven't gotten him to go bankai yet, after all.

He easily slices through the ice before it touches him. However, something does seem to spark in teal eyes and if Goten isn't paying attention enough, there may be snowflake-like patterns formed in a pentagonal shape below him. It gives off a slight glow, enough of a warning for the shinki before ice shoots up from the snowflakes to trap Goten in a pillar of ice.]

Hu-

[The warning does give Goten enough time to move out of the way. All the ice traps is an afterimage of Goten that slowly fades soon after. But it was close! Luckily Goten is fast but it's just further proof that he can't let his guard down for a second with Hitsugaya

Goten isn't out of sight for long, Hitsu can probably sense his energy as it flares up. Above the god, Goten starts raining down a volley of ki blasts.]

[His attention is immediately brought to the volley of ki blasts and before it can hit him, a shield of ice surrounds Toushirou, seemingly connected together like fine threads weaving together. It holds up against the Ki blasts, but he doesn't waste any time.

Instead, he leaves the shield of ice to appear against Goten. Holding his sword out towards the shinki, a ring of ice seems to spread out from the tip before he charges at him.]

[Unfortunately, Emi and Aymeric did not really exchange names during their initial meeting but he's not going sword ho with the strange being shrinking on his yard. Mainly because Goten knows him and that's all Aymeric needs to know. But why is he getting the feeling that he'd seen a style like that before?]

It is nice to see more of Goten's friends come to visit. Pray, do not mind the hawks; they can be easily startled and there is a constant reminder of them having to stay on their toes.

[aka a old grump cat]
