"Good to meet you Megis," Celerous nodded as the Majin offered his hand to Tysco, "as long as we can all agree to get along, I'd be happy to show you the fields."

He really didn't have beans, of any kind. Not even pinto. But it seemed to him that Megis wouldn't leave the issue be until he'd seen the lack of beans for himself. So be it: Celerous took pride in his work anyways, so he didn't mind giving a tour. It would serve as a decent enough break from the day's work. Then after that, they could get back to what Tysco was looking for.

"Alright. We'll take a quick tour, and then we can track down your creature, Tysco. Does that sound amenable to everyone? Nobody threatens anyone, and Tysco has already agreed to keep his drone off of you, Megis. So I reckon we're all good here?"

Celerous figured walking the fields really wouldn't take that much time. Sure, there was quite a bit of land, and Tysco couldn't fly, but they were three reasonably young individuals. Plus, it wasn't like they were going to investigate every crop of every field. Celerous had already done that earlier in the morning. So, the young hybrid thought they'd walk the perimeter of the fencing and call it good.

He just hoped Megis wouldn't fuss about it.

Tysco asked Megis a question, about why he was so interested in beans, and Celerous had to admit that he was quite interested in the answer. What use did a bubblegum monster have with beans? Was he looking for black beans, or chickpeas? Because Celerous knew a neighboor a few miles down that ought to have something like that. Maybe they could solve this bean shortage after all.

Except, Celerous didn't want to send Megis to someone's door, only for the Majin to threaten them like he'd tried to threaten him.

Thankfully this Celerous was quick to forgive his former rude behavior, though he was annoyed that he seemingly wanted to walk to his crops. Was it not common for people to know how to fly? Though he liked to roll he did have to admit that you got a much better view from in the air. He had to be respectful here however, so for the moment he kept his mouth shut. Tysco asked as to why Megis was so interested in beans, to which he figured there was no harm in finally explaining things.

"I've heard for a long time about powerful beans you can find in places like this. Some call them Senzu beans, though I don't think anyone has asked the beans themselves. They say that if you eat them while being hurt they will bring you back to full strength. I hope that I can use this power for... things."

He didn't imagine they would much like to hear about his actual plans, so he left that bit out. "If you are truly a skilled farmer then you must posses the most powerful beans of all; else I must deem you lacking." Megis could have gone to a supermarket as Tysco pointed out, but he figured it was easier to rob a single farmer. "The beans they produce for the shops are insufficient in quality and overrated in price; I must get mine from the ground itself."

This creature that Celerous mentioned was unknown to him. What is it that this little fellow could be after? "You don't look like a hunter; where do you store your weapons?"

Tysco gave Celerous’ suggestion a little shrug. “I don’t mind, I’ve got eyes where I need ‘em to be anyway.” He casually followed along wherever the group agreed to walk under Celerous’ guidance, looking at the camera feed on his phone connected to the drone that was far off and out of sight. Nothing exciting was really going on on the camera feed anyway, and in some sense that was perfectly fine, it meant nobody would really question what was going on all that much. Plus, if there was anything interesting happening, Tysco could just keep it to himself.

Megis finally admitted his interest in beans— it wasn’t a matter of lima beans or cannellini beans, it was vastly more interesting! No, it was in regard to Senzu Beans. The Majin being all the way out here made more sense at this point. Most stores sold things like Healthy Beans, a Senzu Bean derivative. “Oh cool.” Tysco didn’t really say much else, but he did take note of what Megis didn’t say, or didn’t specify— the why. That in itself was pretty suspicious. Tysco figured Celerous would also pick up on it, but to be sure, Tysco tried to reach out to Celerous with telepathy to let the farmer know what he thought about that.

As for Megis’ inquiry about the creature being sought, Tysco brought a hand up behind one of his ears and inexplicably, somehow, he brought out a comically massive sword, which he held upwards with ease. “Behind my ears, where else would I keep ‘em?” Tysco said with a toothy grin before putting the oh so whacky weapon away back where it seemingly appeared from. It was safe to say that Tysco could take care of himself if he could do something as wild as that so casually.

"I don't seed magical wound healing beans, sorry to disappoint."

Celerous pointedly chose not to rise to the Majin's bait. Not planting senzu beans didn't make him a faulty farmer. Farming was about producing a crop to be used to feed the masses. Senzu beans might have made you feel full, but they were hard for rural farmers to mass produce. And even when they were mass produced, they tended to lose their nutritional value, and magical healing properties.

Celerous was a simple man. He'd stick to simple vegetables. Nobody could mess up planting carrots.

Celerous walked them along the fence line, introducing them to his fields. He grew cabbage, carrots, potatoes, corn, and a little bit of wheat, all sequestered in their own fenced off fields. But no beans, and no, no celery either. People always thought they were clever when they asked him if he grew celery. They weren't.

"We don't keep weapons on the farm," Celerous answered Megis' question easily, "I reckon we've never needed them: we have better ways of keeping our property safe."

Gramps was an alien who could launch blasts of energy from his hands. Celerous was a half alien who could launch blasts of energy from his hands. And Ma was a home grown Earthling who could launch- well, point was, they had it covered without firearms.

Tysco, however, produced a comically sized sword from thin air. Cel merely blinked at its materialization, surprised, but not really phased. Not much phased him these days. The sword was still pretty cool, though. His stretchy new friend returned the sword to... from whence it came, he supposed. Celerous would have to ask after it later, because he was a little interested in seeing it up close.

"That's a neat sword," he tried to strike up conversation, "where'd you get it?"

The farmer Celerous showed off his crops to the two of them. Although there was a large variety he seemed to be telling the truth when he exclaimed that there was no Senzu Beans being grown throughout his land. He temporarily considering breaking into the land and tearing the crops from the ground so that he could more personally examine them, as he was unfamiliar with the exact growing mechanics of the Beans, and it was possible they may have been hidden underground.

But remembering the power of Celerous in comparison to himself he decided that it was probably best not to continue down that line of though, and instead he decided that his efforts would be better spent elsewhere, as there were still plenty more farms to be explored. "A fine weapon, but I prefer my fists, or my mouth if the occasion calls for it."

He turned away from the two of them and rolled himself back up into a ball. "I'm afraid you're not much use to me anymore. I shall have to find another farm with pure beans for my tastes. You should consider adding some to your menu, else you're missing out on business from those such as myself." With those parting words Megis took off, rolling away to back from whence he came.

Celerous was evidently the collected and self assured sort, and it became increasingly obvious the more this interaction went on. Megis tried a few times to get a rise out of Celerous and nothing seemed to work. The farmland’s crops were showcased by the man, and there was a nice selection; and the noticeable lack of celery. It made sense, people would probably go ahead and make a joke out of it. Hell, they probably did anyway. Still, it was a bold statement of Celerous to not grow celery, and Tysco respected that.

“I mean, with the level of strength you’ve got you hardly need a weapon, a single hair on your head could outdo any run of the mill gun as is.” Tysco chuckled, it was a funny image, he had to admit.

Speaking of weapons though, both Celerous and Megis took note of the comically ridiculous weapon that Tysco produced. “Oh, I didn’t get it anywhere, I made it up.” He answered Celerous.

Meanwhile, Megis simply rolled up into a ball and abruptly made his leave. “Oh, uh, bye?” The Majin evidently got the hint that he wasn’t going to get much out of sticking around for beans that weren’t here. Either way, with that rather literal odd ball of a guy gone, Tysco turned back to Celerous. “I uh... I guess that’s that?” At least they could get back to searching for that mythical creature Tysco was still wanting to find.

Speaking of, a notification pinged on Tysco’s phone, alerting him to the presence of the creature he had just thought about! “Oh sweet, I knew it was smart to send a drone out.” With that, Tysco hurried off to where he believed this elusive creature to be, whether or not he was followed didn’t really matter— he was a professional in the field of magic studies, he would be fine by himself too.
