image; advice needed

[ There will be a small but very determined looking child peering into the amulet for a couple moments before he feels like the thing is "on". ]

Uh... hi.

[ This is working right? ]

I want to get myself a sword here but I don't really know what kind to get.

[ .... ]

So, uh, what's the best kind of sword to have here? Or I guess... what kind do you have if you have one? Even better if you can show me or something.

[ He pauses for a moment to scratch at his cheek. ]

Uh, thanks if you can help?

'cause we're friends and you have a really cool sword?

[ Gosh, Zero. ]

[ Friendship and sword ownership doesn't make him a blacksmith, goodness ... ]

... I don't create my own weapons, Trunks.

Well you can create one for me!

[ Solid plan. ]

Maybe we could make it together, heh!

[ EVEN BETTER PLAN. ]

[ Is this boy real. ]

Designing it might be fine ... Leave the crafting to a professional, if you want it to last.

[ He's the realest ever. ]

Well, ok. Do you know a professional that could make it?

There's a metalworking shop here. I've gotten a few commissions done from them already, but they aren't cheap from what I understand.

[ Guess who doesn't have the best concept of What Things Should Cost, no prizes for correct answers. ]

Does this mean you're going to get me a custom weapon?

[ Puppy eyes will work, right? ]

[ Silence for a full five seconds ... then-- ]

Prove to me you know how to use one, and maybe I will.

Heh! That should be easy enough since you've seen me fight and all.

[ PIECE OF CAKE??? ]

[ Good luck, Trunks. Good luck. ]

Don't get cocky. Using a sword is completely different from what I saw you doing.

Ok, ok. You don't have to get all grumpy.

[ But he still comes to laugh a little. ]

So you'll design a sword with me?

Hmph ...

[ Something something kids something. Moving on-- ]

... Yeah, I will. Shouldn't be too hard.

[ He's had a ton of them over the years, even if he always just goes back to his z-saber. Plenty of designs to draw from, it'll probably be fine. ]

You're the best, Zero!

[ Cue little arms being thrown up in the air for some cheering. ]

Let's have a sleepover and work on it!

Another one of those, huh ...

[ Well, whatever. So long as Ciel and Ion were fine with it, he doesn't care that much. At least their guest room was seeing some kind of use. ]

I'll check with the others. In the meantime, figure out what kind of sword you want.

That's easy. One as cool as yours.

[ And yeah, you're getting a thumbs up, Zero. ]

... Don't shoot too high. The tech to make something like the z-saber doesn't exist here.

Well we'll just work with what we've got, right?

[ He's not giving up! ]

[ Well, points for determination, or whatever ... ]

We'll work with whatever's possible.

I'm coming over then!

[ wait what hang on-- ]

Right now ...?

How else are we gonna get started on this?

[ DUH, ZERO. ]

I thought these kinds of things needed more warning.

[ don't humans plan these things out, doesn't this kid have people to explain his absence to, hello ....... ]

[ It's fine, THIS IS FINE, ZERO.

But here Trunks is going to frown. ]

You mean you don't wanna?

[ It's frowning. Why is it frowning. ]

That's not it. I already agreed to it. I ... thought staying over with someone took more planning.

What's to plan? It's just hanging out.
