[First, the ICP comes on with Trunks visible, in the training gym.]

We've gotten a lot of new people lately, and I know I did one of these a few weeks ago, but this is just a reminder. Fight Club still happens. What is Fight Club? It's a place where you can come and find people to train with, or to learn from. It's meant to help people learn combat safely. Anyone's welcome. We're in the training Gym for the next few hours. My name's Trunks, and I'll hopefully see you there.]

~~~~~~

In the Training Gym, Trunks is indeed there, and has set up a few training dummies, along with cordoning off areas for sparring and for target practice of ranged weapons. He's gathered what practice weapons he can, along with some basic first aid items. Sometimes they were lucky enough to have a healer present too, just in case.

"Hey, come on in." Greeting anyone who showed up. "Any questions?"

"Got any plans tonight? Because I was thinking we could catch a movie, share some popcorn..."

She's got a practice dummy cradled beneath one arm even as she continues to smirk at him.

As with many things, she's here to help. Once she's set up, she'll be on the other side of the gym, ready to give her own lessons and lead her own workouts. After that will come her session with Trunks. But anyone looking for instruction will find not one, but at least two able instructors to guide them along.

"Trunks?" Bulma, of course, enters with a loud announcement that she's there. It isn't all that hard to spot him out normally, what with the hair just like her father's, but amongst all of the other people around it can be a little difficult. Especially if he's training or just soaked in to something else altogether.

She's brought along a tool this time at least - the scouter that the train had gifted her that used to belong to Vegeta, for a couple little tests and things that they had talked about before. Of course, she spots Trunks easily, waving as she approaches.

"I brought something to try out. I forgot I had it until your father reminded me."

[light_of_willpower]

Trunks would have to be unconscious or dead to not recognize her ki, or the shout of his name. Disengaging from where he was, he headed over to greet her. The waving makes him smile, and he's pleased, if surprised, to see her here. "Mother." In greeting, still with that smile, and then he's tilting his head to the side while listening. "What is it?" It looked like an older version of Devero's eye-piece.

[ballseeker]

"It's your father's old scouter. The train brought it for me as a gift." She presents it for Trunks to take a look at with all the pride in the world. No, Vegeta hadn't been the best person in the world when he had first come to Earth, or anything close.. but she fondly remembers repairing and reverse engineering it overnight in order to see what exactly the little machine did.

"I thought it might be useful to either me or you depending. It's been fairly useful in helping with illusions before, so." A shrug. She takes a look around, trying to figure out a place where they might be able to practice.

"Where do you think it might be good to work on sensing today?"

[light_of_willpower]

Trunks takes it, and examines it with some care. He can understand her pride, and honestly he's glad and honored to be trusted with anything of his Father's. "So it's a bit like Dev's interface? That is useful."

Handing it back to her for now, and with a bright smile Trunks put his hands on his hips. "Honestly, right here if you want. I feel like you'll do better with movement than with sitting down, and even if that doesn't work, I can teach you some moves to help you focus anyways. Meditation will be a part of this, but I don't think you wanted to start with that."

[ballseeker]

"A bit, yes. Before he learned how to sense power levels, this is what your dad used." Back when he was a little, newly landed on Earth troll doll, basically. Of course, that time was so far behind them both, which is probably how Bulma is able to look at it in any bit fondly.

"If we start with the meditation part I'm going to lose my gourd." If there is one thing that Bulma is very, very bad at, it's keeping still or slowing her mind down. She's been bad at it ever since she was a child, and nothing has really changed with time and experience. If anything, she's even less patient than she used to be these days.

"So what are you thinking other than that to help with focus?"

[light_of_willpower]

"I figured. So, instead I was going to teach you a simple kata. It'll help you be aware of your body, because we'll be doing it SLOWLY. I want you aware of every micro-movement you make, and how your energy flows through you." Trunks said proudly. "I also have a tool that'll help you track your progress."

[ballseeker]

Bulma... well. She's not good at this kind of thing. She's fine if she working in her own little tornado of things, her own workshop, her own projects where she can jump back and forth and work furiously for no reason other than she's on a roll. Taking a moment and slowing down... isn't really her thing. Even more not her thing is paying attention to movements or energy or any of this, which probably explains how she's managed to not learn a damn thing despite how many years she and Vegeta have been married now.

She sighs at the thought, in fact, but nods anyway.

"Okay. I'm not guaranteeing I'll be brilliant at it but.. we can give it a shot."

[light_of_willpower]

"Well, like I said--I have a tool that'll help." Hand held over his Arms Band, he summons the hand-held scanner Entrapta had gotten him. "When she was here, I helped Entrapta with Claudette the dinobot. One of the ways was tracking how energy is used, so I know this can scan you at your base level, and possibly more. I'm still learning all it can do." Offering the device to his mother. "We could probably hook it up/interface it with the scouter too maybe, and track in real time how you're doing?"

[ballseeker]

As soon as the scanner is in his hands, Bulma has an eager hand out to take Trunks' gadget and play with it. He is probably hardly surprised with how quickly she's only after playing with it, and so she eagerly accepts it once Trunks offers the scanner to her. She's clicking away at it soon enough, nodding slightly.

"I think we should be able to!" Bulma is, of course, thrilled to get her hands on something to play with, already grinning at his mention. "Good way to see if I'm any good at this at the end of the day, too."
