“Every time I visit the past, there’s always some more forgotten Earth culture things that Mom never taught me! Did you know that they looked up at the stars, chose twelve constellations, and made twelve classifications for people based off of those constellations and the time of year they were born? And here I thought they only looked at the night sky for space travel!”

“I’m going to McDonald’s, y’all want anything?”

[saiyanprincesstrunks]

“Depends. What is McDonald’s?”

[polterxgheist]

“A disappointment. But subpar food is oddly comforting. The hiraeth your tastebuds feel soothes your soul.”

[saiyanprincesstrunks]

Well, there was no point in turning down free food, right?

“Okay, get me one of everything. Disappointment all around.”

[polterxgheist]

“…one of everything?”

He could feel his wallet cringe.

“Did you just want to sample the comfort-garbage, or are you actually hungry?”

[saiyanprincesstrunks]

“Hard to tell anymore.”

So maybe “free-food” was overshooting it when it came to Saiyan appetites...

“...Need me to chip in? I have plenty of zeni.”

TACKLING! PRINCESS!

She senses him coming. Her instincts scream to protect herself.

She ignores them with a smile and relaxes, letting herself get tackles to the floor with a loud "OOF!"

She wheezes, shifting on the floor to prop herself up on her elbows. "Good to see you too, Bakura. Easier on my ribs next time, okay?"

The Muppets (2011)   {Sentence Starters}

“Are we working for the bad guy?“

“Wait, stop the car! I have an idea.“

“Dreams? Those were nightmares!“

“Was there more I could have said?“

“What? Can’t you see that I’m busy?“

“You okay? That was quite a tumble.“

“I always dreamed we’d be back here.“

“This is going to be a really short movie.“

“I’m being held captive by these weirdos!“

“No, I don’t… I don’t think that’s a good idea.“

“A hard, cynical act for a hard, cynical world.“

“What? You kidnapped ______? That’s illegal!”

“Now you know how we’ve felt for the last forty years.“

“Yeah? Well, you ain’t seen the last of me. I’ll be back.“

“Where am I? Why am I so fancy? This is not good for my image!“

“It sounds like you guys aren’t getting back together any time soon.“

“I hope so. Otherwise I would’ve bored half the audience half to death.“

“And if we failed, we failed together… and, to me, that’s not failing at all.”

“That’s what growing up is. It’s becoming who you want to be. You have to try.”

“So I say fine, let’s just start from the bottom and work our way back up to the top.“

“If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you were reciting some sort of important plot point.“

“How come you didn’t use me in the montage? I thought my story was pretty interesting.“

“Wow, that was an expensive looking explosion! I can’t believe we had that in the budget.“

“You always believe in other people, but that’s easy. Sooner or later, you gotta believe in yourself, too.”

“I went to this bad sea food place the other day. Yeah, it was so bad, the catch of the day was salmon-ella!“

“And I don’t care what anybody says, I don’t care if no one believes in us because… I believe. I believe in you.“

Trunks discovered the trans flag on one of her future visits and was amazed to find that so many flags and queer history existed that were pretty much snuffed out in her timeline. Bulma didn’t know a great deal about all the flags before everything went up in flames, but with a reference from Trunks, she embroidered a trans flag patch onto Trunks’ jacket, on the right side opposite the Capsule Corp logo.

Trunks knows that not everyone will understand, but it’s a piece of human history and pride for her to carry around.

“Hey, it’s been a while. For me at least... Time is pretty relative when you live outside of it.”

[saiyanprincesstrunks]

So uh... It’s been a while.

I have a little spark for Trunks so we’ll see how it goes!

Guess who’s gonna get tested for sleep apnea.

[saiyanprincesstrunks]

Guess who has mild sleep apnea.

[saiyanprincesstrunks]

As Trunks awoke from her mandated nap. There was a note for her along with some water. 'Hope this makes you feel better Love.'

She drank greedily, every sip feeling like life returning to her body, like a senzu bean for her soul. She gasped heavily afterwards; she had took the water in a bit too quickly.

As for the note... She folded it up and tucked it into her jacket pocket before she left to get back to work, tracing the edge absentmindedly with her finger as a small smile made its way subconsciously to her lips.

“I don’t trust peace and quiet. It’s just a matter of time before–”

BOOM!

“AT LEAST LET ME FINISH MY SENTENCE!”

[saiyanprincesstrunks]

“Anyway, here’s Careless Whisper.”

[saiyanprincesstrunks]

“I don’t trust peace and quiet. It’s just a matter of time before--”

BOOM!

“AT LEAST LET ME FINISH MY SENTENCE!”

“Sometimes, Conton City feels like the future, my home, but not in a good way. I keep wondering if I’ll see any of the faces I remember... or if it’s best if I don’t try to go looking.”

“Where’s my hug”

[saiyanprincesstrunks]

She was strong. It was always a good reminder of that. When she set him down, he jumped back up and wrapped his legs around her hips to keep himself propped up. He didn’t want down just yet.

“Nothing that you don’t already deal with. But if it didn’t keep me alive with a job, I’d have more room to complain about Her Timeliness not doing anything.”

Oh right, there was something he’s been wanting to say for awhile.

“And I think we’re getting our second Future Warrior soon. Trunks said it was someone I knew… but if it’s that fucking pharaoh, I’ll be shitting bricks.”

“Oh?” Now that was interesting. “Another person from your past?”

Trunks knew a thing or two about seeing people again. People who, by all means, she never should have met. People who she would have rather stayed dead and gone. Bakura’s own past was just as messy as many others, perhaps more so in several respects. She could only imagine the trepidation he could be feeling.

“Sounds like it could get messy. I know that if Shadow ever got someone back from his past, it could really mess with his mind. Then again, it feels like we get a brand new hero every week. Everyone is so gung-ho about being the best around.”

A good thing, she knew. If anything ever were to happen to her, there would be countless others ready to jump in. But in all honesty, the thought was far from comforting.
