There was a few days before the first Bruteball game of the season and it wasn't too far-fetched an idea for Petro to want to get in some last minute practice, was it? Of course he couldn't very well practice by himself, could he? And because the horse boil needed someone to practice with, he managed to convince a teammate to join him! And by convince, the scenario went something like so:
Petro had tracked down the room of a certain, red-haired monster. Having seen the half-beast's true form during tryouts, Petro had been... itching to see how much tougher or faster Bul had become. His chance to witness Bul's enhanced physical prowess had been... compromised at the time (namely, the horse boil had gone into a blind-rage and wasn't really aware of anything beyond the fact that someone was on his back, riding him). And so, the tikbalang gave Bul's door a series of hearty knocks before he gave a rather formal, "'Scuse me, Bul? 'S me, Petro from Bruteball. Y' in?"

At the first formal practice of bruteball Bul had gotten a good taste of his wild and reckless teammates and how vicious the injuries may end up being throughout the season. This wasn't just a case of wearing in gear and building callouses. This was about needing FEAR healing and having to be in Cricket's office at any given time.
When answering the door to the large tikalbang Bul could not be any more satisfied and offered the boil a couple fist pounds before even speaking. "Yea I'm in. What's up? Needed something?"

The fist pounds were answered accordingly and accompanied by a wide, wild grin on the monster horse's features. "Game's coming up soon. Didn't do so well during practice," he gestured to himself with a disappointed shake of his head, "Y' don't mind practicing throwing the ball with me some?" he asked, going straight to point. Tro was lightly bouncing on his heels in anxious excitement, he was visibly hoping that Bul would be available.

"Me neither I didn't throw for s**t. The one I did manage to connect was all sorts of a fluke man." Bul shrugged following the other boil's remarks. "But yea, sure I'm up for it!" he replied and gave the enthusiastic monster a nod before grabbing a sweater. "Just incase-" he said then flicked the lights off and shut and locked his door. "Aight let's go."
When they arrived down at the field Bul was already beginning to stretch his legs and arms and even his tail some for better balance. Bruteball rules could be flexed as far as he knew and if he couldn't throw for s**t with his arms he knew he was able to launch objects with the vast appendage. Though snotballs were a whole different chemistry and a bite from a bruteball to the tail would likely bring tears to the boil's eyes.
"Wanna grab us a couple?"

Petro only gave Bul's sweater a curious quirk of his brow but said nothing. Ah well, why spoil the surprise of Tro wanting to see Bul's real form? The tikbalang's own form stopped being a surprise to anyone who had been with him during Christmas. And on the field when a certain hound boil ended up on his back and clinging to his neck, setting off the horse monster's instincts.
Arriving at the field, Tro was slowly rolling his shoulders and was about to go into the motions of limbering up when Bul suggested he get them a couple. Brown eyes stared blankly at his teammate for a few moments. "Couple what?"
Better be clear about things before he went off and got them something Bul wasn't asking for. Tro had promised his momma that he'd force himself to stop and think or at least ask before he went off all half-cocked and full of assumptions.

Bul hadn't even calculated into his plans that his sweater would get ripped to shreds by the end of their escapade. Then again, Bul also underestimated the other boil's bronco tendencies despite having seen him at practice. Hey, maybe it wouldn't be too terribly cold out?
And... of course it was. Bul shivered a bit when Tro failed to respond the way he expected. "Oh I meant a couple- nevermind haha. I'll get it!" he smirked and trucked off to the outdoor storage where the bruteballs were and started immediately pelting two or three from over the shed and arbitrarily onto the grass. "HEADSUP-"
The last one was exceptionally angry to be disturbed from its slumber with its leather wrapped brethren.
"Alright Tro. ARE YOU READY. GO LONG!" Bul shouted and flung the thing off without much hesitation. (After all it was ready to bite.)
((just rolling like practice! xD))

Ooooh! A couple of Bruteballs! Huh. That made sense since they were there to practice throwing and passing and things. Tro was really going to have to be more on the ball it seemed. Ah well, the half-beast didn't seem to mind the tikbalang's lack of immediate pick up. Because Bul looked about ready to let one rip!
The horse monster shot down the field the instant he heard the call, and as he charged, he glanced over his shoulder towards the sky. But. Where was the ball? He slowed down his pace, to find he had overshot the throw and immediately did an about face to try and catch it. "Augh!" he grunted as he dove forward, fingers reaching but failing to catch it, instead getting a mouthful of dirt and grass.
"Oks lang, oks lang!" He yelled, getting to his knees while picking up the bruteball, making sure to stay clear of the teeth. "Stay where y' are, Bul!" His arm was pulled back by the time he finished the instruction.

"That one was my bad.." Bul snorted out to the stallion. "I'll have you know there is definitely a reason I'm hurling this around. I suck royally at throws..." he sighed.
Watching Tro's toss gave him a wee moment's lack of confidence. The boil threw better than he did as far as he was concerned but there was still room to improve. "Damn, just a tad short on that one. Still better than mine though!"
Grabbing the displeased object and enduring a small bite he swung his arm down into the ground with the ball traveling literally zero distance.
Hmphing at the damned thing, he kicked it in Tro's general direction so he'd have something to throw back.

Petro cringed at the bite, recalling his own encounter with the ball's teeth. "'S why we're here, yeah?" he called back in encouragement, trotting towards the ball as Bul kicked it his way. "'Sides, mebbe we can ask the cap'ns if we can kick these things 'stead!" he laughed. Tro didn't have a tail to swipe the ball into the air with, instead he used his bare feet. His toes sliding deftly under the ball and bouncing it up into his arms thanks to his instep.
"Plant y'r feet, Bul!" he hollered as he hurled the ball. Well, it may not have reached the other boil but something has to be said for the tikbalang's consistency.

((Nice Double roll! xD... pepin gtfo))
"Yea, not gonna get any better by picking daisies that's for sure," Bul smirked back. "I would much rather give them a kick than let them chew up my hands. Got so many callouses on my feet I wouldn't feel a thing!"
Following the other boil's instruction, Bul knelt in a prepared stance then gripped his sharp nails into the dirt. "Aw man, come on bro," he teased before grabbing the thing a couple feet ahead of him and pulling it close even as the thing snipped at his toes he didn't appear bothered by it. "Alright you, gonna do this right got it?"
As he kicked the thing up to catch in his hands he over shot it and the thing came falling back down and hit him in the head before rolling off.
"FUUUUUUUUCK!" he growled, flicking into natural form for a brief moment before kneeling back down. "Stupid.. thing.."

The horse boil let out a whoop at the sight of Bul and his natural form. Awwww yeeaaaaaah!!! "Haw! 'S a better throw y' got there!" he laughed, "Shame 'bout y'r clothes though." No, the tikbalang was not at all sorry about the fate of the shredded sweater but then again, he wasn't sorry for the fate of clothing in general. His own loincloth aside (but only because his momma made it for him).
"Time to take things seriously eh? See if y' can catch this!" The tikbalang's arm pulled back and threw the bruteball straight at the half-beast.

"Meh-" Bul grumbled as he looked down at his clothes. That always happened, he was never really good about keeping things in tact. "It happens. I probably won't do that again.." he sighed, though he'd be sadly mistaken before their practice was up; he would likely be in natural form again.
This time Tro threw a clean shot his way and the half beast was able to catch it without fumbling or stumbling. "That was nice!" he smiled. "Let's see if I can pull it off this time."
The next thing he knew, Bul had tossed it into the ground yet again and the half beast let out a frustrated groan before throwing himself into natural form for good this time and huffing angrily.

The tikbalang was openly laughing now. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to do so because it was now affecting his own throws. The bruteball fell short of Bul, but maybe throwing the bruteball around wasn't the only thing the horse monster was hoping they could practice for.

Oh if that bruteball had made it any further with Bul failing his tosses he would just- Oh wait.
Too late again.
This time the black, spiney beast let out a roar and even as Tro might've been anticipating a return throw he'd be getting nothing but a return charging lizard creature coming his direction. Things were about to get dirty!

Whether or not Tro was expecting a return throw seemed irrelevant now. Especially with the sight of the spiny half-beast charging right at him! But rather than turn tail and run, Petro only pawed at the ground before shifting into his own natural form. Hooves kicked off as the tikbalang ran straight towards Bul with a roar of his own.
