"Mh- okay." ; He doesn't quite want to fall asleep, tired as he was. Their little escape would be all that closer to ending... But he's out pretty quickly, occasionally nestling closer in his slumber.
"I'd have killed you by now if it wasn't." He's melting into the touch, but he'd never admit that. He feels oddly safe, safer than the last time they did this. Which is dumb. Raditz can't fight, Vegeta should be the one protecting both of them. Weird. "Shut up and close your eyes."
Big spoon seems more logical. He's clinging to his side, snuggling closer. "Is this acceptable?" Not sure why he feels almost shy... Could be the invitation.
Shedding off his armour again! Kinda dumb that he put it all back on only to take it all off again. He judges Raditz for a second before laying down, throwing the big blanket over himself. It's cold! "Hurry up." Raditz can decide if he wishes to be big spoon or small spoon! Pick wisely!
Ditto. He sits so politely with his legs crossed when he's all ready and comfortable, staring up at the other. He's just happy to be here,
Once they land back at camp, he's hanging up his towel so it doesn't get all stinky and heading towards his tent. He expects Raditz to follow, so he doesn't bother telling him to or looking behind him. He can't wait for cuddles ... 🥴
"...Right." 💧 Once everything's on, he puts pressure on his back one last time. The bath helped with his soreness. Should invest in a heating pad maybe...- But then his napping problem would definitely get worse. They're off!
"Tsk. I'm only offering so you can sleep well and train easier tomorrow. You're no good to me if you're too useless to move." He's too proud to admit he wants cuddles :( don't let him fool you!!! he just wants to put his head betwixt those titties.
Stealing a glance while the other emerges. Hate to see him go but love to watch him leave aha- He lingers a second, quite comfortable in the warmth- then stands because he'll be stuck there forever otherwise. "Ah... Thank you." +
They're so eepy! It's been a long day. "Of course I am." He's deciding he's had enough of the water, climbing out and grabbing his towel. "I'm tired. Stay if you want. You can... Hmph... Sleep in my tent tonight. Yours is covered in sticks and plants."
Cringe as hell. Unfortunately he's kinda into it. "You're incredible enough to pull it off, my prince." Aw damn. He's yawning too.
"I'll get all of those bastards. I'll show them Prince Vegeta is the apex predator. Frieza should cower in fear." Yawn... "All I need is a little more time. A catalyst. We'll figure it out."
"But of course. I've been wanting to see those jackasses suffer for a long time." He can't wait to finally witness a little vengeance after so many years!
"Naturally. Annoying ability aside, he's slow and weak. Then I'd probably go for Burter, mainly to anger Jeice. He's fun to laugh at when upset. Then Recoome. Then Jeice. Ginyu last, he'd be the most satisfying." He's got it all planned out! "I assume you'll be there to watch when it happens?"
😵💫 Glancing down at him,, "Mh. Targeting Guldo first, I presume?" Why couldn't HE have such a useful ability! It's so stupid!!!
"If anyone was to achieve it, it'd be me." He's pressing closer to Raditz's side, his leg coming up to brush against Raditz's thigh. "It's not all useless, I suppose. I get to watch and study their weak spots. They're predictable, as expected. I could confidently beat each one."
"Achieving Zenkai through secondhand embarrassment is a new one." He wants to scoop him up. He won't. 😔
Guess... "Tsk. Don't pity me. Pain only makes me stronger. And it was definitely painful to watch." He does lean into Raditz's touch! He's closing his eyes but he's not relaxing, relaxing is a vulnerability he can't afford. "It'll make it all the more fun when I eventually kill them all."
Who the hell is forcing him to sit through their recitals? "You've endured so much," he huffs, faintly squeezing him closer. It's not sarcasm; those losers anger him enough to actively avoid crossing paths with them. All that strength in the hands of jesters... 😒
Going back to normal... "Relax. It wasn't that good. You're almost offending me." Crossing his arms... "I make fun of them a lot. And once you're forced to sit through their dumb recitals, you pick up a few things."
He's so fucking scared. "Guh- is he here-??" Why did the impression actually sound kind of... accurate?! He stares at Vegeta, wondering if he just happened to nail it first try or if he practices. That's,, impossible, right?
He raises an eyebrow and huffs. "What? You're mad at me for being honest? You're different, idiot. You don't spend hours being like..." He clears his throat and does a... bad ... aussie accent. "'Oi mate lewk at me pretty face an stuff lewk at me hair I finally bloody washed it.'"
Not how he would've described it! "Hmph." He only tries because he'd get so gross so fast otherwise. There's the most subtle eye roll before he turns his head to look elsewhere.
He'd rather be shot dead than sit on a lap like a child wishing for presents. "Damn right. If you have to spend that long preening yourself, fussing over your looks instead of training, then perhaps you aren't as attractive as you think." Couldn't be him. He's way too handsome and he knows it.
Slinging an arm around him. 🥴 He could sit on a thigh if he wants higher js-. "There's no need for comparisons. They're hardly the bar for beauty standards, I'd say."
"I should hope not." He's just gonna slide in right next to him! He's trying to look cool too. He's very short... "You're... good-looking compared to the other freaks in Frieza's cult. And Ginyu's pageant group."
"Oh." Bummer! He sits up straighter to stretch his back, twist around and such. The warmth feels good on his (seemingly always) tense muscles. Then he reclines, arms resting on either side of him at the edge. "I won't be laying on the street anytime soon."
He pauses to think for a moment. He genuinely looks like he's considering it. Eventually he shrugs. "I'd stop and stare at you if you were laying on the street, but I wouldn't help you or anything. I'd even feel a flicker of pity." He gotta take a question like that seriously.
He's temporarily blinded when he dunks his own head, pushing aside sooo much hair to be able to look at the other. Smirk. "Am I a sexy rat?" Instant regret but whatever.
He comes back up and pushes his hair back out of his face. He spares a glance over at Raditz. "You look like a rat caught in a storm." Swimming over....
Turns. Stares. . . . Nice. "Uh? It's not cold, no." He's discarding his armor too, submerging himself in the spring to showcase that it's acceptable. Better than the last one he bathed at, but maybe that's because he was being spied on at the time. His hair feels so heavy and flat! ><
He lands behind him, already starting to take off his chest armour and throwing it by the rock. "Well? If it's too cold then don't bother, I'm not catching some dumb illness out here. That's pathetic."
Getting towels first- "It shouldn't burn. If you didn't have skin, maybe." He zooms off to the location. There's enough forest around to make it feel less,, exposed. After landing, he sets their stuff down on a big rock and curiously checks the water temperature, despite already knowing it's fine.
Freak.... "Is it cool enough? If we go and it burns me, I'm pushing you in there and drowning you." Jokes! Maybe. Hopefully. He stands, stretching his legs. "Lead the way, then."
Suddenly he's up! "There is. Towards the north." There was probably more if someone didn't wipe out those mountains.....
Crafting what?!?!? But he's not throwing them away!! He's placing them to the side. If it was his own tent, he'd he pissed. But it's Raditz's so he doesn't care. "You are starting to stink. Not as much as Nappa, though. I could do with one too, I wonder if there's a hot spring around here."
He needed those for crafting wtf??? It feels nice. 🤤 He's resting his eyes. "A bath *does sound appealing..." But then he has to get up. :(
He's picking a few leaves and twigs out of Raditz's hair, that damn tree gave them more than just worm pears. "You need a bath. You'll get fleas soon enough if you keep this bird nest untangled." They're never beating the damn monkey allegations 😔 but hey he's being nicer than usual!
"I-I don't have fleas!!?" It was ONE time, on a filthy planet–– they ALL had parasites!!!! ... >>
It's SO much hair, too much hair. He doesn't even know what to do with his hands. He decides to run one hand through the top of Raditz's hair and place his other hand on Raditz's chest. ". . ." "You look like a damn dream house for fleas. I'm going to shave you." Teasing! Probably!
When it ends, he rolls onto his back with his head in Vegeta's lap. Neither of them are into PDA, so he can't imagine a situation where they get intruded on. Everything is fine! God he has so much hair. He's basically his own bed like this.
Nappa is easy to deal with, he'll probably forget about it in a weeks time. But Gods forbid Ginyu or his improv group find out. It'd go straight to Frieza. Jeice would be jealous probably, that freak is obsessed with him. No blame there, Vegeta is hot.
"I expected as much." Adjusting to lean forward and kiss to seal the deal...? Yes? Aha??
He's never gonna hold back! It's how he shows his love!
"..." Damn it! He was trying to get over it! Stupidly, boldly, he's reaching for Vegeta's hand to grasp with both of his own. "I know it's a foolish notion, but I want to keep pursuing this. It can stay our secret; nobody has to know. I promise I'll behave, a-and..." He trails off uncertainly. +
"I don't want you to be hurt because of my own foolish feelings. My own failings. I want to protect you. I want to keep you safe. Yet that means pushing you away..." He realises he's being TOO nice so he gotta throw in some insults. Balance it out. "... Idiot. Shut up. You're a fool."
"Hn. It's not hard to learn." Looking down at their linked tails,,, whyyyy? 💔 That just makes him want more and he's trying to be strong. "Y-You'll prove that soon enough."
"Probably for the best. Imagine how insufferable these missions would be if we didn't have someone with at least a little cooking experience." Well, since he didn't pull his tail away, he's wrapping his own tail around Raditz's again. "Not so much 'rumours'. I would've been a much better king."
How's he expected to act normal in these conditions?! His tail twitches, unsure of what to do. "...I almost never saw my father. Felt like he was practically only home for minutes at a time... Didn't have time to train. And he didn't talk much, either." +
"My father used to train me until my bones would break. Pushed me to my limits before I could even comprehend what a warrior was. The fool was actually surprised when I surpassed him before I even hit my teens." He scoffs, shaking his head. "He was weak. My whole family was weak. It's pathetic."
"Maybe. If you're still interested by then." He feels sick too. Must've been worm essence. He reluctantly looks over. "...Yeah. My father kept having to bail my mom out of missions often enough that they.. just kept in contact, I suppose. Eventually she changed careers because she wasn't..." +
This sucks. He feels sick. Maybe it was all that stew. ". . ." He opens his eyes and looks at Raditz. "Once... Once we're out of this Hell. Once I've ended that tyrant for good... Maybe it'll be different. It worked out for your parents, right? Love. I remember you telling me about them."
