WHO: Yusuke Urameshi and Troy Bolton!
WHERE: The park!
WHEN: Afternoonish!
WARNINGS: None!
SUMMARY: Singing! Maybe some dancing!
FORMAT: I'll start with a paragraph, then conform to whatever because I am a lemming.

Accomadating Puu would have been so much easier if Puu had stayed travel-sized. As it was, Puu was obnoxiously huge, and had to roost on the roof. It wasn't ideal, not when Puu was used to being indoors and pampering by Genkai and Keiko, so Yusuke took him to the park to make up for it.

They wound up by the little lake at the far end of the park. Puu was soaring around it, skimming his wings in the water on ever other turn, and Yusuke was sprawled out on the grass listening to his iPod. Yes, the Spice Girls. He couldn't help it; their songs were actually sort of catchy.

/fails forever so sorry

There is only a few places Troy can ever be found around this city when he's alone and if it's not at home playing on his Xbox or whatever else, he's undoubtedly going to be at the park. He's an outdoor kid by nature and nothing keeps him happier than running riot around the grass, shooting hoops off at the courts, climbing trees, steaming past on his skateboard and whatever else he can find to do.

For today he's got his baseball bat and seems content on just playing a game of fetch with himself, smacking the ball as far as he can and then bounding after it to go retrieve it.

So... sorry if his latest hit seems to be heading straight for Yusuke...

/pfft no worries bb

Yusuke's got his eyes closed, and he may or may not be singing along. So the baseball goes unnoticed until it lands on his stomach. Yusuke inhales sharply and promptly chokes on his own spit. He sits bolt upright, coughing, and is entirely unimpressed with finding out that his attacker is only a baseball.

"What the fuck?"

Within seconds, Troy is sprinting full pelt for the ball, skidding to a stop right near where it's landed- but not too close, self preservation and all- baseball bat still in hand.

"Oh my gosh! Dude, I am so sorry-- Is that a giant bird?!" The kid appears to have some strong form of ADHD, you'll have to forgive him if he gets distracted a little too easily.

Yusuke is torn between whipping the baseball back at him--that had hurt, and nevermind that people who'd been beaten up as much as Yusuke had shouldn't mind a baseball to the stomach, he was off-duty, goddamnit--and you know, showing off Puu. He wasn't exactly left with much choice in the matter. Puu had come soaring over to investigate and was now making clicking sounds with his beak, as if asking for an introduction.

"Traitor." Yusuke accuses. Stupid spirit beasts. He got to his feet, flipping the baseball lightly at Troy. "Yeah, he's a giant pheonix. It's supposed to be symbolic or something."

"Oh, dude, that is super sweet! Is he friendly? He doesn't like... kill people or anything, right?" Troy's catching the ball easily, eyes still transfixed on the giant birdie with a mix of pure excitement and interest while more than a little hesitation there.

It's not that he doesn't trust giant birds or anything, it's just that... he doesn't trust them.

[spiritgun]

Are you casting aspersions on his spirit beast, child?

"No, he doesn't kill stuff." Yusuke's in charge of that, actually. "He's pretty friendly, most of the time."

Yusuke will leave out all that garbage about Puu being his other half, reflection of himself, blah blah blah. He's content to just stand under Puu and pet his stomach feathers while Puu leans his beak down to get a better look at this new person.

"Most the time? Heh." Still, Troy assumes if the big birdy is out in public and hasn't mauled him yet, it can't be too bad, right? Or maybe he just has too much faith in everything ever.

"Where can I get me a giant bird?" Already there's mental images of him flying on one around the city.

And while he talks he's sloooowly reaching out a hand towards Puu.

"Uh. It's kinda complicated, actually. You gotta die first. I think." That was how Yusuke'd first got the egg, after all. Yusuke had no idea how one got a spirit beast without knowing Koenma.

Puu just dips his head down, as if demanding to be petted. Yusuke suspects that he's been spoiled, but hey, he's partly responsible for it, so it's all good.
