Another version of "hope brothers have a conversation", except this time Trunks doesn't feel so hopeful 🥲
I've done so many versions of this conversation that end on a hopeful note, but I wanted to explore the side of Trunks that starts spiraling downwards when everything starts to fall apart during the Cell Games. Like, he probably let himself truly feel like the nightmare was going to be over, and all of a sudden they're on the lookout with no plan and a raging android on the loose. I wonder if he had a feeling of "maybe fate is inevitable".
#dbz#dragon ball z#db#dragon ball#gohan#son gohan#trunks#future trunks#trunks brief#comics#comic#sketch#proud of how this one turned out!#i used like a billion different images plus a video of me sitting on my bed to get that last shot so yay#and looked up manga night scenes because I always struggle to draw characters against the night sky#i think gohan feels a bit stuck and sad that his sparkly shonen speech didnt work#have you ever tried to comfort someone but nothing you say lands and then they say something really dark or sad#its not like your first thought is 'omg i didnt realize im so sorry i really feel your pain'#instead its kind of this sinking feeling that whatever theyre saying or wherever they are is currently too far for you to reach#thats what I think gohan is feeling in the last two panels#hes just kind of speechless#he knows its beyond him#cause it is its all trunks' ptsd
