grasshopper fifteen, video from standard coach to all

[blitzcheer]

Heya everyone! Last mission got me thinking about supplies some more, and what'd help to have beyond just healing. Plus, things we could be doing before a mission comes up to be prepared, you know?

So food's good to take, plus having some containers to take it in. Water bottles or somethin'--I know we can buy those from the train shop, but newbies can't get them with just three points.

What else do you guys think'd be good? And maybe some of us can prepare food for a mission before it comes up too? Or we can buy somethin' in too that keeps. [ He waves a hand. ]

I know some feel like they're not doing much 'cause they can't fight, so maybe we can come up with some ideas! Plus, you know--these missions aren't just 'bout fighting either. Soo, I just thought it'd be good to talk about.

Well--see ya around!

What, you mean when they suddenly go dim? What about the rest of the time? The days aren't short, [ whatever exactly counts on the train as a day. ]

You can't plan anything like this! It's just, 'yeah, we'll do this thing later', or 'this day'.

[adregem]

[ He is silent for a while again, because you know what kid? He likes you enough to actually go do that. Roland sighs inwardly, looking way too amused, and starts typing down feedback for Tidus. ]

...That's a good point, and I like to support ideas that help more than one person. I hope the train listens.

[ Is all he's going to say. Punkkkkkk. ]

[blitzcheer]

[ See, see! Look at how Tidus's expression brightens now. ]

Thanks! See? I want people to run activities easier, and classes! And I was thinking a long time ago 'bout helping get some sports classes going. Or just learning new games or something, you know?

[adregem]

[ HE LOVES TO SEE THAT ENERGY, SON ]

Alright, all good ideas! Sounds like you're about to run a school with all your plans lined up. Teacher Tidus does have a nice ring to it.

[blitzcheer]

Where'd you get that? [ Pfft, honestly Roland! ] I just wanna help people learn some ways to burn time, and with sports, you need more than one person to have a good time!

I'll even teach you something, if you want. You already know any ball games?

[adregem]

[ He chuckles under his breath. ] Okay then. Not a teacher. A coach. Coach Tidus. Sounds even better.

[ Roland shakes his head, smile fading as he recalls experiences in the First World. ] Afraid not. I know of ball games from back home, maybe played one or two as a requirement for school, but I never played just for leisure. [ A pause. He feels like Tidus might poke fun at him again for this, but Roland doesn't really care. ] I had different hobbies, as you can imagine. But hey, I'm a willing student and this body can take what training you can dish out. [ Why bother hiding it? IT's true! ]

[blitzcheer]

[ Oh, Tidus remembers some of those different hobbies. Still got to know if he really collected toy robots, however...! ]

Then I'll get you to help me test out a few of them! There's a few different ones, but not all of them seem that great for the gymnasium we have, so I wanna pick the best ones. Plus I'll ask what people already like here too, [ he adds, since that's important as well. ]

So far I'm thinking badminton, tennis, and volleyball. I'll show you them later. Might even get a couple other friends to help too.

forgive the heavy use of headcanon now, this was not covered in ghibli school

[adregem]

[ He liked movies, and he liked toys. Don't come for his geekery!! ]

I used to watch a lot of badminton, when I was still lobbying for office. [ He may have even taken a date or two to a game. You don't know his life! His youth! Not so dazzling now, but it's a fond memory, distant as it is... ] Looks like I'm volunteering for more than just one thing today.

it is ok, it is the roleplayer life suffering

[blitzcheer]

Well hey! If you know the game already, that's great! You can help me teach people and show them how it's played!

[ You know, he's been rather ugghh about doing any sports or training since it's still so soon after the mission, but this is giving him an itch. ]

I should ask people to help me ask for clocks. Hey, you ask your friends too! And you should look at the ICP in the gymnasium and see what games you like the sound of!

[ Someone is getting carried away right now... ]

[adregem]

I can't believe this train has shuttlecocks for badminton...It sure knows its priorities. [ He quips that really dryly. He lets Tidus slowly build up to that excitement, because Roland is supportive, and truly enjoys enthusiasm in the Youth. Ya'll are the future! ]

Heh. Okay, okay. Clocks, feedback, then check the gym for games. Looks like you really are cut out for leadership after all, Tidus!

[ HE HE HE HE responsibility is delicious ]

[blitzcheer]

You really got some thing about me being a leader, don't you! Why? I just wanna have fun!

[ It's not a serious question, easy to dismiss, but at the same time...!! Stop trying to make him do paperwork!! ]

[adregem]

Leadership can be fun. I sure had fun!

[ Let him just pour some gasoline on this campfire - ]

I can see it now. Lead Coach Tidus, head teacher for all ball games and sports classes on the Voidtrecker Express!

[blitzcheer]

[ Okay, now he's just being dumb about it!! ]

Don't you have something better to do? People to monologue at? An evil wizard or five to defeat?

If you love being a leader so much, how about you go take on Tony in a fist fight and take his place?

get them bonus points

[adregem]

[ He laughs quietly, softly. Ah, this is too EASY. Also Tidus, a fist fight??? That's not how that works!!! SHOULD WE BE CONCERNED ]

Alright, alright. I'll get out of your hair. Maybe I'll go find a princess to woo since you didn't do the job right. [ He wiggles his eyebrow once. He loves embarrassing kids, who knew. ]

nice let's get 500

[blitzcheer]

[ His huff is more of a scoff. ]

Tell her all about your auditing hobby, old man.

UGH

[adregem]

[ He shakes his head in amusement. ]

Heh. See you around, Tidus. Stay sharp.

[ His usual salutation! Before he goes offline. ]</small
