[torankusu]

[ 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?

...You are much too young to have a sword. You'll poke your eye out.

[torankusu]

What? No way. You're just jealous.

[ HMPF. ]

[innermonologues]

How old are you and how much backlash can you handle?

[finaletea]

Jealous? Why would I be jealous?

[torankusu]

[ Trunks is just going to cross his arms and grin. ]

Old enough to take care of myself. I can take a lot.

[torankusu]

Uh... 'cause swords are the coolest?

[innermonologues]

Hmm...

[ Squall gives him another glance. While he knows deep down this might be a bad idea, he does look strong for a child. ]

[finaletea]

Hmm... I'm more of a fan of guns myself...

[WAIT don't say that to the child-!!]

A-Anyway you shouldn't play around with weapons! They're very dangerous!

[torankusu]

[ Do you want him to punch a tree in half or something? ]

Uh... you still with me?

[torankusu]

What? No way, guns are so slow.

[ For him that is... ]

[healing_wish]

...... maybe they have some in the toy stores. [For someone as young and tiny as him, no????]

[torankusu]

[ No, not you, too! ]

I mean a real one. Not a toy one. Toy ones are for babies.

[ And he's not a baby ok? ]

Maybe you can try out a sword that fits your fighting style?

[In other words, Ven does not see what's wrong with Trunks having a sword, okay. He feels like he should be concerned, but--]

I don't really use a sword myself but the weapon I have helps me fight easier and adjusts to my speed, too.

[innermonologues]

It's not quite a sword but...

[ He holds up a weapon that looks like this. ]

image;

[torankusu]

Oh yeah? What kind of weapon do you have if it's not a sword?

[ It's not a gun is it? That's hardly a weapon. ]

[healing_wish]

Well yes but they're also for.... little kids. [says the 14 year old kid. But so far? This sounds like a conversation that she and her little brother might have one day when he gets older.]

Well, you should probably go with one that you can swing without issue. A really big one might be cool, but it'd be a problem if you had trouble moving it, right?

[Here we have... an idiot.]

[torankusu]

[ Trunks squints a little, even raises a hand over his eyes as if that might somehow help block out the non-existent glare. ]

...are you sure? It looks like a sword to me.

[brokenlight]

[It takes a bit before Ventus shows Trunks his Keyblade. Wayward Wind is unique in the way it's meant for a backhand style like Ven's, slight curved to accommodate his speed.]

Not exactly a sword, I guess. It's called a Keyblade.

[castrationfist]

A sword, hm? I used to have one, a long time ago, but I don't particularly care for it... Swords are rather ugly, aren't they? As my second-in-command once said, "weapons are boorish. A true hero kills with a glare!" Or, something to that effect.

Well, magic is much better than any silly sword, anyway.

image

[torankusu]

[ Isn't this good advice though? ]

Yeah, guess that makes sense. Guess how it looks isn't all that important.

[torankusu]

[ She DID NOT just call him a little kid, did she? ]

Yeah, well I guess that's a good thing it's not for me then.

[ HUFF. ]

[torankusu]

[ Trunks is just going to... blink a couple hundred times because... ]

Wow! That's so cool! Did you get it here?!

[ Yep. ]

image;

[torankusu]

[ How dare you call swords ugly??? ]

Uh, yeah... magic is cool. But what about a magic sword then?
