"Hard-core" Training. [Open-to-all.]
Who: (Future) Trunks and whoever is interested! Open to all.
When: October 22nd.
Where: Open Grounds (and Sky) near Caireen's Temple.
What: An open area and invitation for some harder-training than is usually done during the intro-events.
Bishamon was always kind enough every month to open part of her temple and its grounds for new shinki and gods, and Trunks was grateful for that. But he was also pretty sure he, and a few others he could think of, would appreciate a training session or two that wasn't geared towards most of the new arrivals. (Not that there was anything wrong with new arrivals, or those who weren't as skilled as others. They all had to learn.) Fortunately, he also had an understanding Goddess, who had decent space around her temple-grounds, and who knew he'd take care of clean-up and everything else.
Especially since some of the platforms and structure's they'd used from the game of hide-and-seek were still placed around. Celestia'd been kind enough to help Trunks with forming clouds into various loops and shapes to provide some obstacles there too. Clearly marking the space closest to Caireen's temple as off-limits, just in case as well.
It still left them lots of open ground on the edge of the forest, the beach-area, and the sky. Perfect, as far as he was concerned. Word-of-mouth, mostly making sure to stop by and visit friends he knew would be interested (like Snow and Goten) the date he was planning this, and then just setting things up.
He didn't have animated straw-dummies, but then--most of the people he was expecting were far beyond straw-dummy level.]

No, I can imagine that's a bit unsettling. I can't say he doesn't have good taste though--I think I've looked at a cow or sheep that way myself when hungry.
no subject
[ She chuckles as well. ]
I had to just let him though. It's..not exactly easy finding meals for a dragon. Thankfully I could just call him into his vessel form to eat too.
no subject
[A broader grin, with a hint of impishness in it.]
Not to a Dragon's level, but definitely more than most. I imagine his vessel form was also easier for you to deal with, on the near shore.
no subject
[ She could think of some in her head right now. ]
It was. Though I have to say, it really is amazing how no one noticed him as a dragon either..
[ It was quite the sight, having a dragon waiting outside a convenience store. ]
no subject
I've been lead to believe some of it is related to being a shinki--but despite that, I still seem to be one of a number that are...big eaters.
Actually, mortals not noticing him is also related to his being a shinki. Most of them down on the Near Shore don't seem to really notice us unless they're super-perceptive. Usually it's little kids more than anything, and sometimes animals.
no subject
[ It tended to be the little ones that looked up at him in awe. It was adorable though. ]
You seem to balance your eating just fine though.
[ Considering how fit he was. Many would probably envy him for that. ]
no subject
I...try to. I've been learning sort of how to do some basic cooking. Mai and I both have, after the one ball. Mostly because we really liked some of the food, and it's a way for us to do stuff besides watching for ayakashi and answering prayers.
