Who: Daia and OPEN
Where: Ultimately the Gym
When: Month of Horseshoe, Day 4
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'.

"Who said you have to play just with me?" Trunks tilted his head, then let his eyes roam over the others in the gym. "And I'm sure you're smart enough to find other ways to use what strengths you do have. Even if you can't go toe-to-toe with me."

"It is statistically unlikely that I will be able to keep up with anyone." Senku responded with a bit of a shrug. "I'm the guy who sits around and plans battles, not the guy with the sword."

"It is impossible for me to win on my own, I'm aware of that." He was aware of that, but he'd wanted to try anyway. He'd enjoyed it, fleeting fun that that was.

"It's possible other people will be..." He pressed his lips together, looking at Trunks as he considered what his expression could mean. "Equally annoyed with me." He wasn't confident, exactly, that that was how Trunks felt. Close enough, he figured.

Trunks raised an eyebrow. "I'm annoyed at you giving up so easily, even if I understand it. But only a bit. And you plan battles? Great. Try teaming up with some others and plan strategy that way."

"Wouldn't it annoy you more if I didn't?" Senku responded.

He hummed. "Yeah. The kind of battles to minimize the number of casualties, preferably to zero. That's not to say I don't go, I do, but I'm typically support."

He glanced away at the suggestion and shrugged lightly.

"You were giving up entirely, or so it seemed." Trunks clarified, or so he hoped. "Support is important, and a good strategist and tactician can be invaluable. My mom isn't physically a fighter the way a lot of her friends, or my father, were. She's the 'support'--but so many battles would've been lost without her."

"I was." He confirmed.

"Yeah, but that's not much help in something like this because I can't fall back on some kind of skill."

[light_of_willpower]

"Says who? You could team up with someone to take on a better opponent. You could make a fort and figure out how to defend it." Trunks shrugged. "If you're really not having fun, then you don't have to stay. I just...I didn't mean to make you give up entirely." And there was that annoyance at himself too.

Senku sighed, and glanced away briefly, shifting his weight from foot to foot slightly.

"I'm frustrated. I was having fun, yeah, but I'm frustrated." He murmured like he wasn't used to addressing how he felt, no matter how minor that feeling was.

"And I probably should've just stuck to what I know."

[light_of_willpower]

Trunks sighed a himself, and raked a hand through his bangs. "I'm sorry I added to your frustration." Because he was sure he did. "Even if it was getting a bit too one-sided, I started out enjoying it."

[10billionpercent]

Senku shrugged and offered a kind of grunt in response. "Not your fault." It was how things were, after all.

"Sure." He glanced away, he found himself unsure what to say. "I'm still going to bed." He decided. "See you later."

[light_of_willpower]

"Sleep well. I'll see you around, Senku." Trunks still felt slightly guilty.
