001st Meatbun ☼ Action

[justonename]

[Have a child running around the streets, Luceti. He's barefoot -which isn't new to him-, only dressed in the white New Feathers pants -not that different from what he's used to though he misses his shirt-, wearing shackles on his wrists, ankles and neck with the short chains on them clinging loudly as he moves -he's used to them now but they are

[Wha-?! Who turned the lights off? Oh, wait, it's just a cloak thrown over him.

A warm cloak. A nicely warm cloak.

It doesn't take longer than a second for Goku to cuddle on it and hold it around himself, popping his head out to look around, trying to find who threw that to him. There's a hopeful spark in his eyes.]

Konzen?

[Hey, maybe it was one of his friends who did it... Maybe not. Probably not, but this kid doesn't know that.]

[justonename]

[Yeah, definitively not Konzen, though the golden hair calls his attention so despite the obvious disappointment in his face the kid doesn't get down too much. He moves closer to Sheik and reaches back for his hand.]

Your hair glows like the sun, just like Konzen's! Do you know him?

[shrikestrikes]

[... When he left the house this morning, Jale has not planned on being accosted by random children. Brooding, yes. Occasionally being bothered, yes. Children, no. Which is probably why he'll be staring blankly at the little brunette before him.]

... It's called snow.

[justonename]

Snow.

[Goku repeats the word blankly, rolling it on his tongue. He wasn't at mount Kaka long enough to see winter so this is his first time seeing it.]

The snow is cold.

[His point still holds, even knowing what this stuff is.]

Have you seen Konzen, Ken-niichan or Ten-chan?

[Whom you obviously know. Everyone knows them, totally.]

[shrikestrikes]

[Konzen? Ken-niichan? Ten-chan? The Company may have had a lot of weird people with even weirder names, but...]

Never heard of 'em.

[justonename]

No? But everyone always knows them... Ah! Of course, we are all new here! Uhm...

[Thinking.]

Maybe you'll know if I describe them? Konzen has a very pretty face but is always in a sour mood and has long blond hair, it shines like the sun! And Ken-niichan has short black hair and is always smoking and likes to drink. And Ten-chan smokes too but he prefers books to sake...

[amber_arcangel]

[Alright...random child in the library? Have a random floating angel behind you in a few moments.]

I haven't met anyone with those names yet.

[justonename]

[Blinking at you...]

Hey, you're an angel!

[Flash news in case you didn't know, he points too, it's rude but, hey, he never was good with manners.]

Why are you here? I looked all around Heaven but I couldn't see any angel, shouldn't you be up there instead of down here?

[Mission: Finding friends... Put on halt because ohai shiny and distracting thing.]

[amber_arcangel]

[...Blinking right back. WELL, this has never happened before...and she has no idea how to respond to it for a few moments.]

I-I should, yes...but how could you go around Heaven and not see an angel?

[Nevermind the fact that only angels can go to Heaven.]

[justonename]

I don't know. There were only lots of gods there, though they didn't even look that special. Konzen looked different though, and his hair glowed like the sun, it's really pretty... But I saw no angels at all. Why?

[You're an angel, don't you know why you aren't in Heaven?]

[Action]

[eternallysinned]

[Why did this situation all feel a little familiar to him? This was a way too uncomfortable and Hakkai didn't like it. Luceti was a unnatural place.]

G-goku. What are you doing? Aren't you cold? [Why was he so tiny?]

[Action] 1/3

[justonename]

[The voice makes the child freeze, slowly turning around to look at the person talking. It takes a bit, he had been clinging to hope, to the idea that his friends were there as well, even if a small part of him doubted it, even if all the people he met said they weren't. Maybe he was starting to give up hope without realizing it.]

[Action]

[justonename]

[His appearance has changed a bit. The glasses are gone, so is most of the hair, now he has it short... But it's the same brown color and style. And the face is the same as always, full of easy smiles for him but so scary and serious when he had to be. There's no way Goku wouldn't recognize him, even if his appearance changes, he will always recognize his friends.]

[Action]

[justonename]

Ten-chan!! I knew it! I knew you guys were here! Everyone said you weren't but I knew it!

[Glomp, almost a desperate cling. He had began to fear that he was all alone after all.]

if you don't mind someone being so late? ; ;

[screwthegods]

[Homura would never fail to miss the familiar form, though the boy is much younger than he last remembers. Never the less, that presence is unmistakable, and he'll watch Goku run about briefly before approaching. It truly is terrible, the things the Malnosso do to the people they choose to bring to their prison.]

Son Goku.

[Homura speaks the name softly, almost reverently. This truly is the innocent child from over five centuries ago.]

I DO, I totally do not mind it :p /sets this after Goku meets Hakkai if that's ok

[justonename]

[Hearing his name initially cheers the kid up, thinking that it may be another one of his friends after all, but, even if the face somehow feels familiar it's definitively not Konzen or Kenren. Still the face is familiar so...]

Hello! Have we meet before?

[Well, the other knows his name and the face is familiar, even if the kid can't pinpoint a name for it, it's quite obvious that they have met. So the kid smiles brightly, hopefully the other won't get angry with him for not recalling his name.]

perfectly so! also, uh. [action] I forgot that before.

[screwthegods]

In a manner of speaking, yes.

[Though that day was centuries ago for Homura, and little more than a chance encounter at best. Anything more recently will clearly be from the boy's future, and nothing Homura thinks he needs to know.

Besides, this is a unique opportunity, with neither Konzen to act as Goku's sun, nor the gods to interfere--at least, none that they are familiar with.]

I am Homura.

[action] I supposed so :p

[justonename]

Nice to meet you, Homura!

[For Goku that day would be quite recent, but with the latest events he went through not many can blame him for not remember clearly anyway.]

Ne, do you know of a good place to find pebbles? I need them for a snowman I'm making!
