>>5556540Hehahahahaha.
>>5557560Gohan's still at the same school.
Okay, sorry for the delay. I've been barely conscious for most of the day. I'm up now, and gonna try to run. We're back.
>>5556463‘Understood. Thank you, and sorry for kinda springing this on you, aunt Maple.’ you tell her kindly. ‘I know you’re going through a lot right now.’
‘I’m just glad you’re being cautious about this. Stay in touch, and notify me if anything especially dangerous happens.’
‘Got it.’ Okay. Oooookay. You move the contained Shapeless with you as you slowly continue through the hallway, with it thankfully large enough for you to move through in your mech form. The grub coos again, and you look back at it. Ah hell, why not? “Fine, you can tag along, lil’ guy. But mostly to keep the Shapeless in-line, okay?” The grub’s cooing gets… happier? At least, it sounds happier. Well, it’s not hostile to you. After walking a bit, you decide to ask the little guy, “…Soooo, you one of those ‘Fragments’ that this thing’s been harping on about? I won’t judge if you are.”
‘[Fragment]…’ the Shapeless repeats in your voice, seemingly confirming it.
And the grub just kinda reaches up at the orb containing the Shapeless. It doesn’t get far, you’ve got it hovering above pretty high, but it’s clear it does still want it. Okay, if it’s FragmentS, plural, that means there’s probably more than one. You DO sense some other life forms lurking around the area, which seem to have taken notice of the presence of you and everyone else. Still… this is, what, exactly? A piece of a dead god? Or the attempt to make a god… hrmn. Sensing it carefully, you do get the impression that while there is something ever so slightly off about its Ki, it’s not really malicious. You… kinda get a similar feeling to the one you have around Majin Buu, if anything.
