Catch these hands!
WHO: Goku and open!
WHERE: Training area
WHEN: January 28th-ish
WHAT: Goku is moping and punching his feelings out. It helps a little.
WARNINGS: Bit of violence. Will update as necessary.
[In the training rooms, a young man has been exercising non-stop for the past few days. Bouncing off the walls, punching and kicking the air and seemingly full of limitless energy, Goku greets anyone who he catches watching him with a smile before focusing on his workout again. Honestly, space is boring in Goku's opinion. There haven't been any cool alien fights (that he's been invited to) and he's just been stuck on the spaceship for weeks now. Three weeks. Over three weeks, Goku's pretty sure, though he's never been very good at keeping track of time. Without Sanzo around, it feels like barely any time has passed at all.
Goku shakes his head and refocuses on the punching bag he's been tearing into all morning. Don't think like that. This is different than back then. 'You're not a kid anymore.' He keeps punching and kicking the bag with frightening speed, making it swing around violently. He occasionally jumps and switches sides quickly when it takes too long to swing back at him. He doesn't want to slow down, not when he's finally working up a sweat.
Not like he's been doing anything else worthwhile. Just sitting around waiting for Sanzo and the others to show up, like a pathetic little kid. But what else is he supposed to do? He's too stupid to figure out the anomaly stuff and get back to Shangri'la on his own. He can't even do anything about Ukoku Sanzo- no doubt planning some villainous deeds right now- because he's too weak to fight him on his own. Just a stupid, weak, pathetic monkey, all on his own. The others are all busy figuring out important shit in their world and he's just here doing nothing and- and-
'Right when I finally got to see him again.' The thought makes something inside Goku snap and he strikes the punching bag with far too much force. That's just the last straw for the poor thing that makes it split near in half. Sand spills out onto the floor, the bottom half of the bag hanging by a thread.]
Ah- shit!
[Fuuuuuck... Goku grabs the bag and helplessly tries to put it back together (how he hopes to accomplish that, no one can know), looking around guiltily for anyone who might have seen that.]

...Show me how to throw a punch, then. [not how she wanted to ease into asking for this, but it works. Anger is a good motivator.]
no subject
[No one will suspect him if they're on the opposite side of the room. He's brilliant. Just follow him.]
You don't know howta punch?
no subject
I mean, I know you make a fist and like... Punch. [She knows the basic idea of it okay] But I've never had to fight before-- not a real person or anything, anyhow. Spirits are kind of different.
no subject
Never? [Hmm, he knows normal people don't fight as often as he does but it's still so strange...] Well, fightings easy! You just hit people real hard till they stop movin'!
[Monkey Style]
no subject
That's a little... [Simplistic?? Mio rest her hands on her hips and frowns at him] There's gotta be something more to it than that.
no subject
[Goku is already a Bad Teacher. This is what happens when you talk to someone who finds fighting as natural as breathing. He slips into a cliche martial arts pose, fist at the ready.]
Come on, give it a try! You can have one free hit.
no subject
Are you sure? What if I hurt you? [Somewhere in another universe there's uproarious laughter at this]
no subject
[Not going to assume Mio can't hurt him because if anyone knows that looks can be deceiving, it's Goku! He holds up his fist for her to look at.]
Just like this, it's easy!
no subject
It... it probably doesn't do anything to Goku, honestly, but it has Mio shaking her hand out with a pained noise. Her punch might have hurt herself more than him, honestly.] Ow...
no subject
... Wow, you're really crap at this! [Like... wow!!] You weren't kidding!
no subject
[Mio shoves at him in retaliation, face turning red in embarrassment] But I can't let everyone else protect me forever!
no subject
[Why shoving??? He is an innocent monkey.] ... You can say that all ya want, but it won't help if you don't get any stronger.
no subject
I just don't know how to get stronger. And I know it won't happen fast, but... [But she doesn't want 'slowly but surely' dammit, even if she's aware she has to settle for that.]
no subject
You need to start by building up your strength, I think. [It's hard when Goku doesn't remember how he started- he's been able to fight for as long as he can remember. But he's pretty sure that's right.] You can exercise with me for a bit, if ya want, and then try punching me again.
[He's very well meaning, but an hour trying to lift weights with Goku is probably going to kill Mio.]
