Adventure Time : A True Journey

Chapter 28: 27. Feelings and Junk,



POV: Finn The Human

" That was some of the best pie I've ever had, " Jake said while patting his full stomach. He licked away the pie remnants from his mouth and belched out loudly.

" I must agree, " Finn said, also lost in thought about the seemingly magical dish. Or was it magic?

That pie was too good.

These past few days, he has noticed a growing trend: that each different food he eats or is made by others is extremely tasty.

Like they were straight from some fantasy recipe book. Was this influenced by the presence of magic in the world? That was most likely. It was even more likely that no food ingredient was going to be normal.

Finn felt his mouth water once again. That sounded like a good idea to add to his growing to-do list. To go on his culinary journey.

" Hey Finn, maybe you should go over so we can have this pie every day. " Jakee said teasingly and immediately burst into laughter soon after. 

It was extremely funny to him how Finn got all embarrassed and went all red. 

" You're annoying," Finn said and looked away already tired of Jake's constant teasing since they left the forest area. He just would not shut up about the unfortunate incident Finn had gone through.

But Finn was not worried. He had zero romantic interest in Tree trunks and at best he knew she would be that sort of annoying good friend that would always flirt with him. At least he hoped so.

" Aren't you going to take your nap? " Finn said and looked at Jake, quickly trying to divert his attention, which worked spectacularly. Jake always had a short attention span.

" That is correct, yell me if you need me. " Jake said and stretched out from the couch upstairs to his bed.

It was not long before Finn could hear snoring.

" Back to work, I guess. " 

Finn said as he picked up the video camera and took it with him to the tree house garage, which he had modified partially to be his new workshop.

Finn had already acquired lots of machine parts which he had not only bought from the farmer's market, but he had also picked them up from the surrounding area. It was all just lying around.

His current purpose was to outfit his temporary workshop with as many things as he could get, and it was only then that he would be able to make anything of value.

 Now, the best he could do was repair broken machines as he had done to the video recorder. Which was very simple.

He quickly moved to the garage, passing by the empty pond, and wondered if the water nymphs would ever be there. 

Finn was also careful with going near the pond. If he remembered correctly, there was a sort of weird world there which Finn preferred not to be in.

Anything that could potentially throw him into another dimension was a definite no for the current him. He liked being alive.

He easily entered the garage and placed the video camera on a desk. Finn quickly inspected all the parts he had gotten so far, and he was satisfied with his progress.

What he was trying to make was a computer, one that could allow him to make a functioning enough A.I for his future endeavors.

Collecting parts was going smooth enough but he had slowed. Finn believed that he would need to expand his search area, maybe go to the candy kingdom's dumping site, or even better Finn was sure if he made a trip to Mo's factory, he could potentially get everything he wanted and even more.

But that line of thinking had its problems, Finn observed both two areas, which were unfortunately based in dangerous areas and even the map given to him by Cornifer highlighted this, a clear red skull on the given areas. 

He could understand why Mo's factory was considered dangerous as it was placed in the badland's region, but what could have possibly made Cornifer add the skull mark on the Candy Kingdom's dump site? Finn could only speculate now.

There were a lot of red skulls throughout the map.

"Huh. "This all came down to his strength in the end. And the fact that the current him had zero connections at all. The best he had in terms of backing was Jake, who Finn could not really 100% follow his desires. 

Jake had his own life... And he was super lazy.

And that was why Finn had made a list. A list of all his objectives and goals and the things he wished to achieve both short term and long term.

[ Finn's Journal 

Short term goal-

1. Acquire the crystal candy apple

2. Build a working computer and A.i

. . .

Long Time goals

5. Learn both ninja magic and the local magic

6. Think of a way to stop Golb!!??

7. Make lots of friends

8. Find a solution to help Simon

9. Time travel

. . . 

Unfortunately, or fortunately, both two lists were extremely long. Either long-term or short-term. And most of the things either required him to be patient or stronger to achieve and Finn was good with either option.

Some of his other objectives might have been impossible or outright mad like the possibility of time traveling but Finn had thought of a possible way to make it possible, a way he recalled that had been used from one of the movies he had watched in his old world, about genes and how they could connect to our past life. 

If that did not work, there was the possibility of using other magical means.

What Finn wanted to do for now was to gain more experience with the nomicon and his Teingu flames as well as his ninja suit.

In fact. "{Shuuaa]" The Comicon appeared beside him and started opening its pages.

Blackish crimson pieces then burst from the pages of the Nomicon and wrapped around his body, enveloping Finn in their tight embrace and wrapping snuggly around Finn. 

The nomicon then slammed into Finn's chest, integrating into the new suit and it started shifting from the chest to an equally long cape that fell on his shoulders, fully covering his body.

The suit was majorly blackish with hints of crimson, and it had an odd red glow running through it. There was the symbol of a cursive nine on the chest region and the most colorful part of the entire suit was the cloak, which had its inner lining decorated with symbolic Kanji letters while the outer layer matched the coloring of the general theme of the suit.

Finn had already been impressed by the new suit. His original suit. He was even sure that he had jumped up and down in joy the first time the transformation happened, and Finn would blame his childish mind no matter what anyone would say.

And what Finn realized made his own suit different from what he knew was what happened next.

" Form change, Arms. "

The suit that had wrapped around him seemed to split from each other, bursting away from his wrapped body and started reforming in his arm, the process quick and happening without lagging.

Finn clenched his fist in contemplation as he felt the tighter ones in his arm. The cursive nine was now located on the back of his palm calmly placed.

As Finn had discovered after some talking to the Nomicon was the fact that his suit had allowed Finn to have a sort of cloth manipulation, and this majorly applied to his ninja suit.

Most would argue that that was a useless ability, but Finn would defer. With his knowledge of anime and different forms of media, how could cloth manipulation be weak if it was overpowered? 

His current form allowed Finn to have enhanced arm strength, enough that Finn could lift a fridge above his head without straining, but the reason for him equipping the suit was different.

In this current form, as Finn had learned, it allowed him to more easily channel the Teing flames which Finn had taken as a form of training where he would equip and unequip the suit and most preferably, with the suit present on his arms, Finn had been able to channel Armament Haki through them, weakly, but it had still been possible.

Something that he still struggled to do with his normal body.

The Nomicon had explained to him that the suit had become what people from the one-piece world would call a black blade, something that had been modified to allow for better Haki channeling into an object.

The Nomicon was only proving to be more useful than Finn had imagined it would be, and he would never forget to offer a thank you to the goddess who had rolled the lucky wheel for him.

" [ Fuff] " A flame appeared above his palm and Finn could only sigh.

It was time to practice his flame control once again today. Finn would continue to practice until he was satisfied with his level.

' Your dedication will bear fruit Finn. ' The Nomicon said in Finn's mind, and he could only agree. 

This was also his wish, nonetheless.

Was he not aiming to have his happy ending?

Cloth manipulation looks like an interesting power and for everyone interested in how the suit looks, I took some inspiration from images from Pinterest of the ninja suit as well as animes such as Bungou Stray Dogs [ the Rashomon] as well as World Trigger [ Black trigger armor].[ PICS BELOW ]
