[Action/Ice Building, Floor Three, Apartment Thirteen]

GOKU!!!!!!!!!!

[Goddammit... It was bad enough that Kanji was living with the weirdo... okay, so, Goku wasn't that bad as a roommate. He was polite and helpful. He didn't judge Kanji on his hobbies. He was actually kinda supportive, in a weird sort of fashion.

It didn't even bother him too much that the other man liked to walk through the apartment half-dressed.... Okay, that first time totally didn't count! Who does that?

But, the towel on the floor of the bathroom, still damp from the power shower he'd taken? NOT cool.]

GET THIS SHIT UP OFF THE FLOOR! RIGHT NOW!

[Video, Later the same day]

[You can see the blond standing in a clothing shop. He's standing in front of a rack of clothes with a pensive look on his face. It's obvious the journal is open and facing out to film him for a purpose. Kanji adjusts the rack before moving to the side to let anyone curious and paying attention to see a display of knitted stuffed toys.]

Yeah, that's perfect.

[He turns to face the journal and tries to smile, but it's obvious he's nervous.]

So, um, name's Kanji Tatsumi for those who don't know me. I just...Look, here's the deal. My family runs a textile shop back home. Since I got here, I've been feelin' homesick. And, uh, I've been doin' stuff that I would back there. Thanks to Rhyme, I got a place to sell them from. So, if you need somethin' repaired or you're looking for a cute plush toy, I'm your guy.

I'll be here on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and all day Sunday.

That's all.

[Then they were just like her. Is she going to hit him for no reason too?]

That's what friends do, right? Look out for each other?

Yeah, that'd be him. Guy runs around in that orange gi thing and leaves wet towels on the floor.

[He looks up from the bag and blinks before flipping the cover on the back and exposing the motor.]

It's old. But still a good model.

Yeah, that's how I feel too.

[Welcome to his world. Besides, he's got friends who are a little picky. Hard to shop for 'em.]

A tiger? Shouldn't be too hard. Bengal or Siberian though?

[Not now.]

Of course we do!

[Wow rude, Kanji. He's just going to stick his tongue out at you.]

Hm, right. Who knows how many of them might accidentally fly away.

If it's something that takes time like that, they know I was thinking of them all the time I was working to make it. I think that's good for a gift.

He's an old friend of the family. He's been friends with my parents since before I was born!

[And though she cares about Goku, she is so very glad that he's not living in their little house. There's far less likelihood of holes in the walls if her father and Goku aren't living in a small enclosed space with one another.]

How did you guys meet, anyway?

[She just assumes everyone is. Or that they have some ulterior motive.]

Alright.

[She follows after him, holding the doll loosely in one hand as she does so. When they reach his workstation she can't help but peer curiously at everything.]

[Oh there it is. Trunks blushes before looking at the motor, examining it thoroughly.]

Oh this is easy. I can fix it.

[And then he starts diligently working on it.]

Alright, alright, I get it!

[He lets out a sigh. And jeez, on the topic of homework...]

Well, anything would be better than that. Who wants to go to school longer than they have to?

[ She'll immediately skip over to the desk, leaning over to see the pink rabbit. Behind her, through the open door, comes Soren, who lands inside on a chair. ]

Whatcha dooooooooooing?

I certainly think so. Idle hands are never any fun, for certain...

There're people here who like that sorta thing. So, them, probably.

[Ignoring the immature gesture, because, whoops, might deserve that.]

That ain't what I meant. Maybe someone doesn't want their toy to be able to fly away. Like... it's just for decoration or somethin'.

[He's got a sewing machine, a space with needles and thread to sew by hand, tons of yarn for knitting and crocheting, plus extra fabric and extras that he obviously uses for the clothes out in the main area of the shop.]

This ain't nothin' like what Ma has back home, but it'll do.

[Kanji looks up from his hands to see the little girl from the journal standing in behind him.]

Making a new plush to sell. Wanna watch?

Uh, yeah, I guess that's true. If I'm not doin' somethin', I usually get into trouble.

[Like that time he beat up the motorcycle gang by himself.]

[Awkward lull in the conversation. They might be sort of neighbors since they were kids back in Inaba, but Kanji's never been alone with Yukiko and never had a conversation like this for longer than a few seconds.]

So, uh, you'll let me know if there's anythin' I can do for you, right? Anythin' at all.

Oh, so you know him? Is he normally so...happy-go-lucky?

[He was going to say simple, but that wasn't nice.]

Er, we kinda ended up in the same apartment on the same floor one day...

[Kanji's not gonna point out that faux pas, Trunks. Your secret's safe with him, man.]

Yeah, the holes in these clothes aren't gonna be hard either, but these don't look like any kind of rips and stuff I've seen from trainin'.

Er, yeah, I...agree. If it's homemade, it shows you made some effort, not just went to a store and picked it out.

[When Kanji's talking to Trunks, he kind of half listens and just blurts out the first thing on his mind.]

Well they get ripped a lot when I transform into a--

[...Wait a second. Whoops, he almost let it slip out.]

--A totally awesome fighter! Y-Yeah, that's it. That's totally what I meant.

[Times change. Perhaps they'll actually spend time together that will last all day. It could be fun!]

I will, don't worry.
