What: Pillow fights in the Gym!! Feel free to make your own toplevels <3
Warnings: N/A


Daia, being unusually bored, has gotten an idea in his head and wants to have some fun with everyone he can find. He leaves Rene in his room and grabs his pillow, then starts running down the hall. If you're in his path, he'll swing out to bonk you with his pillow.

"Pillow war in the Gym! Spread the word!"

And he giggles as he continues running, heading toward the Gym himself. He'll gather any spare pillows he can find and toss them in a pile, too. For anyone who needs a 'weapon'.

"Oh no! I am under attack!" With purposeful bad acting as Trunks turns with a grin to dodge the pillow. He's got a big smile on his face though, and nods his thanks to the 'instigator' of this madness.

Daia slides and almost falls over with the force of his swing. But he turns on his toes and manages to balance himself back up (with only a little difficulty, and a sigh of relief as he manages to not fall).

He returns the grin to Trunks. He fluffs his pillow and holds it out, like an amateur fencer brandishing a sword.

"I'm going to win!" He says, only half seriously. Look, even he's aware of his own weaknesses in the physical department. And Trunks... Definitely looks on the strong side. But he's still here to play.

[light_of_willpower]

"I won't make it easy." Trunks is entirely serious, and holds his own pillow like a sword. At least, as much as one can hold a pillow like a sword.

Still it's brandished in front of him and then he's shoving forward in what should be a charge.

[diamondsfortears]

Daia squeaks and scrambles to the side, narrowly dodging the pillow. Then he swings out to his side as he attempts to glance Trunks with the pillow.

[light_of_willpower]

Trunks could probably dodge it--but why? This was meant to be fun. "Oh you can do better than *that*!" Even as the pillow grazes his leg. Encouragement shining in his eyes and smile.

Trunks-senpai, please teach Daia how to fight xD Even if it *is* only with pillows

[diamondsfortears]

Daia pauses and blinks, not expecting the encouragement. After all, they were mock-enemies on a mock-battlefield.

"I can?"

He looks his pillow over wondering what he could do different. Is there more to pillow fights than swinging wildly?

Hahaha, that was not the icon I meant but it works? Trunks is a good senpai.

[light_of_willpower]

"Of course you can!" Trunks grins. "Truce, and I can show you some pointers?" He meant it too.

Stealth icons sneak into your threads, lol

[diamondsfortears]

Daia's smile brightens at the offer.

"Okay! Truce! I am ready to learn!" He grips his pillow with determination.

Something like that.

[light_of_willpower]

"Okay!" Trunks drops his guard, and moves closer to prepare to show the other. "So, what you want to do is try to make your opponent's target area smaller. Try to cover as much of your guard with your pillow as you can."

Demonstrating by standing with his feet shoulder-width apart, one slightly in front of the other and slightly crouched. One hand held his pillow by a corner, the other was somewhat braced behind it. "This way you can block and shift it, while also striking out."

[diamondsfortears]

Daia listens closely, and then tries to mimic Trunks' stance. But he crouches too far and starts to lose his balance. There's a flap of pillow and arms as he tries not to fall over, with a yelp.

[light_of_willpower]

"Easy there." Trunks murmurs, coming out of the stance and reaching out to help steady the other. "You don't need to crouch quite so deeply. You just want to be ready to move quickly if you have to."
