When: Horseshoe 17
What: Inigo and Tidus are handing out free stuff because Tidus is the train's official sugar daddy.
Warnings: Probably nothing, will edit if necessary.

Hey guys, forget about that public breakdown the other day. Today Inigo is on the ICP with a big smile, seeming as cheerful as ever. It's fine. It's cool.
"Good day, everyone! Tidus and I brought some things back with us from Irivar to share with everyone. So why not come over to the standard coach and see if there's anything you'd like to take with you, hm? We have quite the selection! Oh, and.. erm, Taiki, Roland, Bryn and Della.. If you could make sure to come see us, we'd appreciate it! Otherwise I might have to send Ti--"
Before Inigo can even finish the sentence, there's an offscreen obviously very Tidus-y voice calling out, "Inigo! Ask for Sakura too!"
Inigo huffs, turning his gaze to the off screen source. "I was getting to that!" (No he wasn't.) Apparently he accidentally pulled his ticket off the ICP as he starts moving away from it too, because the feed just cuts out. Just come get some sweet stuff.

Their set-up in the standard car is a simple, if messy, one. They have a few of their offered freebies on the same table they occupy, each guy facing the other, sat by the wall. From the immediate front, fragrant bags sit no bigger than a palm, a variety of scents better to tell when held to the nose. Whetstones sit stacked mostly on top of one another, and then a cluster of hair ribbons and circular hair ties behind them. Behind the bags are a few scent oils--basically, perfumes, if not very big. There's a few to choose from, but...
...not as many as there are the soaps, which take up a half of the table in their choice. It's like a lush shop here of choice, different colours and sizes.
And Inigo and Tidus? Sit there, either playing cards or fiddling through the paper craft book available from the art supplies where the old library used to be.
A chalkboard sits balanced, with the words 'FREE 2 TAKE' written in big letters. In case you missed the public announcement.
1:
Come up, and have a look. Ask about what they've got.
2:
Or while you're here, maybe you can help Tidus, who pipes up to ask-
"Hey, quick question. How long 'til you're comfortable hugging someone?"
(ooc: as a note, all threads on this will be threeways! please enjoy trying to handle both teens at once. you can't seperate them.)

2.
He didn't manage to make it out of the carriage though before Tidus caught him off guard with the question. After the initial surprise on his face his expression turned into a hard flat line of non-amusement.
"No."
That was it. That was his answer.
no subject
What is up with this guy? Is it just Inigo, or did it just somehow get colder in here? He awkwardly glances between Piccolo and Tidus for a few moments, wondering if there's some sort of weird rivalry going on here or something.. Or does this guy just always talk this way? Not like Inigo would know.
So rather than speaking up and saying anything to Piccolo, Inigo just glances over at Tidus, mouthing an uncertain but silent 'what's up??' at him. Is Inigo missing something here?
no subject
That may have been a consideration, before he decided to throw out the blitzball of a question Piccolo's way. 'Cause why not?
And while Inigo is sitting there feeling a strange tension out of nowhere, Tidus is oblivious. Because Piccolo answers 'no', and he may have seen a certain scene not that long ago that lifts the edges of his mouth. Tidus looks at Inigo and gives him the smallest tip of the head, a signal to 'hold up', while he returns back to the green pal.
"Not even if you're a cute lil' girl with pink hair and a cute smile...?" he asks, innocently. I n n o c e n t l y.
Some people do not understand the forces they be messing with.
1/2
"That was....one time! And she--!"
She was most definitely the one to initiate it! He never would have thought of doing such a gesture. Ugh, Tidus had hit a weak spot. How to refute a thing that clearly had happened?
2/2
"..............don't ever expect one, all right? You're not that cute."
no subject
.. except it somehow works. The big guy starts blushing. Inigo's eyes grow wider, evidently impressed by Tidus's power.
Until Piccolo speaks up. Inigo slams his hand on the table, standing up and pointing dramatically.
"Hey! Tidus is plenty cute!"
He probably thinks he's just defending his bro's honour, while - as usually - not really thinking about what he's really saying here. Other than just echoing the word Piccolo used, without his brain processing said word.
no subject
Well this just means Tidus has to stand up too, his fists pumped.
"Yeah! I'm cute enough for a hug! Come on, Piccolo, I wanna give you a hug!"
COME ON P-GREEN IT'S HUGGING TIME.
no subject
More concerning, however, was Tidus's follow-up to this. Piccolo's face contorted into something beyond mere surprise, heavily implying he was horrified by the teen's sudden interest in hugging. It was, in all honestly, more comical than anything else.
"Wh-what? Why--!" He actually took a step back. "What did I just say!? No. Absolutely not!"
no subject
And maybe this is the ideal moment to back down. But something about Tidus going along with these dumb antics is just driving the idea that no, this is a good idea somehow even further home in Inigo's mind.
"Why, are you saying there's something wrong with Tidus? Look at him!" He's just going to hold out an arm. Like he's presenting Tidus. Look at his bestie, he's a total superstar!
no subject
"It's just a hug! What's the worse that can happen?" Tidus pauses, leans slightly forward for effect.
"You're not scared of a hug...are you, Piccolo?"
no subject
He pointed a finger at Tidus. "Especially not from you."
He's going to keep pretending that if he just keeps teasing Tidus with slightly mean but no real venom to his words that maybe he can get out of this without succumbing to the embarrassment of an actual hug. Seriously, why was this even a topic of discussion. And how did he manage to get into this position of being on the potential end of receiving one??
no subject
This is dumb. All so dumb. Yet something about what Piccolo says makes Inigo move out of the booth too until he’s standing in front of Tidus, between the two. Not to hug Piccolo though - he really doesn’t look like he’s about to. Instead there’s something weirdly defensive about his stance.
“Nothing about hugs is dumb! And more importantly—- why would Tidus need an especially there, huh?” Most normal people might figure Piccolo just doesn’t want hugs from just about anyone. But Inigo is both dumb and also can’t help but feel a bit more protective over his friend with how much of a hard time Tidus has had lately - even in this case that protectiveness is used in absolutely the least useful situation.
“You aren’t being mean to my friend, are you? I won’t stand for that!”
That might have been a tad more impressive if Inigo didn’t look like a pouty toddler as he says it.
no subject
"I've got this, Inigo," he says assuredly; with a resolve that is absolutely misplaced in this situation. Cue the shounen friendship track anyway. "A hug isn't something you need, but that doesn't make it stupid. Sometimes it says a lot! And you know what Piccolo? You've helped me out a bunch and this whole train, and I've never been able to give you anything for it."
He's been slooowly walking up to Piccolo...! "But you know what I wanna give to you for it?"
Arms. Opening. Up.
"My thanks."
HERE HE COMES PICCOLO, GET READY FOR THE HUUUUUG.
no subject
However, he had other concerns for the moment.
His eyes flicked to Tidus and slowly grew wide as he figured out where the blond was going with this. He took an automatic step back but he was determined to save face. He couldn't just run away from such a silly thing without a good reason.
He froze in place and cringed as Tidus moved towards him.
"..you really don't have to..."
no subject
Then Inigo will just sit down again. Though still a tad pouty - he won't just forget this!
But he'll stay quiet for a few moments to instead watch this spectacle unfold. It's too bad he doesn't have a camera like Prompto had or something to capture this moment for eternity.
