This post is an IC post for getting a hold of this jerk @

luceti. Why you'd want to do that, I have no idea.
Leave a date in the subject line.

[Because contrary to you, Bulma talks to people when she meets them and gets to know them, unlike you who only get to know them after the third or fourth time you meet them and they survive the encounter. Also bonding over shopping and fashion is a powerful magic, specially between mothers and daughters.]

Oh? Not even to trim your hair?

[She's totally not serious there, no offense but she doesn't want Vegeta at the beauty salon even if it was to drag her out there before the place exploded. The same goes for Goku as well, so it's definitively not something personal.]

Honestly, I've been wondering about that. Was it Bulla? Did she say your hair was too long or something?

[She's also pointedly ignoring everything else he has said because whatever, everyone has things they aren't completely happy with their living place in Luceti. Starting from the fact that it is in Luceti and ending with things like how small all the houses are. Of course Bulma got herself the biggest room in the house, which she guesses now she will have to share with Vegeta-...]

Uh... Are you going to want to share a bed while we're here?

[Yes, she's actually asking it. And for once she means literally that, no innuendo -though with the way she normally is it wouldn't be strange to think there is some innuendo-.]

[He gets a little red and looks away at Bulma's correct guess that Bulla did her sassy hair flip and told him he looked nerdy with that hair of his. It looked weird and very unlike any men on Earth. So needless to say...well, Bulla wants her dad looking good and she made sure to tell him so. He stays silent on the matter but it's pretty obvious that the answer was yes.]

Yes, why wouldn't we? What kind of question is that? [Seriously, because why wouldn't he want to sleep with her? Didn't he already get it through her head that they were married? Duh?

What is it with Earthling women and not listening to anything he ever says? It's so irritating! It almost makes him want to punch a hole in the wall, for the love of the galaxy! The look on his face is of utter angry confusion as to why she'd even ask that.]

Why, were you expecting something else? I'm not going to go sleep in the gravity chambers at the Battle Dome you know!

Because last time we were here together and you were ahead of time from me, you didn't want to share a bed. I just wanted to make sure of how to organize our room's wardrobe.

[And last time she checked you had no problems sleeping in gravity chambers, Vegeta.]

Ah, also, do you have condoms or should I add those to the groceries list?

Edited 2013-04-07 22:14 (UTC)

Do I look like I'm from that time? Need I remind you yet again that you're my wife? [He rolls his eyes at her. He hasn't slept in the gravity chamber in years.]

C-...condoms? Could you be any more crude? [He kinda doesn't want to tell her whether he's got some or not, because he doesn't want her to think he's been sleeping around or something...it makes masturbation a lot cleaner after all... probably best to just say no and deal with the jokes instead.] No, of course not, you just arrived today, what use would I have for them otherwise. So go ahead, put them on your grocery list. We'll see if I even use them anyway. [He doesn't mind using that line though to try to get her goat.]

Do I need to remind you that I don't know how you are now?!

[Seriously, Vegeta, can't you get that she is going to have to relearn her way around you on many things?

And yes, condoms. Not that she plans to jump him but if they are together and are going to sleep together she wants to be ready. She has always been a sexually active girl ever since she got together with Yamcha, which shouldn't be surprising coming from someone that claims that a planet without sex must be terribly boring for the people on it.]

Well, even if you don't sleep around you could masturbate, though with the way you guys are I suppose you don't have many of those urges so you can fight for longer or something like that, right? I'll get some, even if we won't need them... Now I wonder if they would be even of any use, what if your sperm breaks through them?

[One has to wonder what kind of idea she is getting about saiyans in bed.]

Guess it's really better if we don't do anything after all.

[It's a bit troubling but doable. Yeah, despite everything she seems pretty settled on the idea that you're not going to touch her in that way ever while being here.]

[Fine. She has a point, she wouldn't have any clue how he is now. So he won't argue that point, at least. He's also going to ignore the sperm comment. What a dirty mind, at least she developed a little more tact on the matter when she got older. But that surely isn't helping him now, and he's not looking forward to all the comments in the near future he's going to have to endure from her. It's a good thing he's had a lot of practice up to this point dealing with her mouth. Well, in more ways then one huh?]

[He almost loses his cool at the very idea of abstinence, he's not gotten any in almost three months now, and coming from a time where he was used to having it much more often than that. His face only twitches slightly- calm down Vegeta, this is Bulma we're talking about. She says that now but let's see how long she lasts, especially since she's not protesting sleeping together. He manages to calm himself and relaxes.]

So, you don't want to ever find out how great our sex life is huh? [He just grins and sets a hand on his hip.] Right. [Yeah, he doesn't buy that for a minute.] I'm not sure how long you'd last even with your attitude of not wanting to have a child while we're here. [Which is fine with him.] So if you want a little more information about how I am from my time, let me put it to you this way; I have years of experience. And you don't protest.

[Vegeta, prince of saiyans, conqueror of planets, killer of many and a complete prude about sex. She doesn't know that yet, but once she does she's not going to be able to believe it. Then again Bulma is really extreme in that department, probably consequence of her parents and the biggest reason why she could never mount on Goku's cloud. Pure was never a word attached to her at all.

She rolls her eyes and shakes her head at his comments, of course she wants to find out. Actually it's nice to hear him say that, means they probably have a healthy sexual life even with two grown up children, but he is forgetting when she's from and her history record as of then. Sure, whenever they were together she and Yamcha actually were pretty active, but the periods of time in which they fought and she was on her own were larger than the time they spent together. And the idea of a child really worries her, not that she doesn't want one, but having one in Luceti is just crazy in her opinion and what if it causes some changes back home when she returns? Also as far as she knows Vegeta and her only had a one-night-stand and she got pregnant from it, so in her mind Vegeta has some sort of super sperm or something that can get her pregnant with just one go.

She turns, about to retort that she didn't protest about Yamcha either in that regard, but the words die short in her mouth as she looks at him. No. That's a bad think to say and even to think. The man standing before her is her future husband, has been married to her more than she can imagine at the moment. He doesn't need nor deserve to hear stupid comments like that. There's really no point in doing that, not even in pointing out how alone she has been for most of those years despite supposedly having been with Yamcha. She sighs and turns around once more, wandering until she finds the kitchen and starts to... Search around for some coffee, the water was good but she needs something with a stronger taste at the moment. Coffee always helped her remain focused on her work no matter how tired or emotionally scarred she was at the moment.

And no, she says nothing in the whole time, take that as you wish, Vegeta.]

[Was it something he said?

The sass doesn't come, the retort, nothing taking a jab at him at all. He keeps forgetting. This isn't the Bulma that's not but a year younger than him, it's the Bulma from when all he did was yell at her. He can't just make comments like that. He didn't see anything wrong with it but it struck something in her to not say a word to him. He knows from being with her for so long that things only work with sacrifices, both of them had to do that to make it work out in the end. But now he's got to prove to her he'd made those sacrifices for her all over again.

It was hard not to stand there and just tell her to get over it, whatever it was. He really wanted to. But he's got to use his logic over his stubbornness and pride sometimes. He's not sure if she's showering herself in another pity party this time or if whatever bothered her was legitimate. Vegeta's not seeing how she would get a 'woe is Bulma' attitude out of that. And whatever it was it was making her upset and he really isn't taking a liking to it.

He follows her into the kitchen, to come up behind her while she's looking for whatever it is she wanted out of the cupboards, and wrap his arms around her, resting his head on her shoulder. If she decides to yell at him, or punch him in the face, then fine, he can take it. He closes his eyes and breathes out, his way of apologizing for whatever it was that made her feel like that and almost to tell her to stop it, stop feeling the way she did. He knows it's not that simple but he can at least try.]

[She tenses when he does that but only for a second, the motion wasn't one she expected or could have ever predicted but after the initial surprise fades she just accepts it. She stops searching and lets her hands find him, one falling over his arms, the other reaching behind to craress his face and hair. A small amused smile comes to her lips, did he think it was his fault? That it was something he had done? For once she couldn't really say it was anyone's fault but her own.]

It's okay, I'm sorry. I just remembered things I shouldn't, it's not you.

[Had he been the Vegeta she knew... Well, that conversation wouldn't have happened most probably, but even if it did she wouldn't have hesitated to say whatever came to her mind. He didn't care about her feelings so why should she care about his? Now it was different, the man holding her didn't deserve to be told those things, no matter if they were true or not. It was just wrong. Throwing back at him whatever past mistakes he could have done was one thing, but that was too cruel, specially when all he had done since she called him was try to show her that he cared for her. Or at least that's the idea she had ended getting.

It was just her fault for remembering those things in the past, except that for her they weren't so much in the past. It was hard to not remember something that happened less than a week ago when Yamcha and her fought once more and she decided that this time it was finally over.]

Ne, Vegeta, do you remember that time when you made the spaceship in which you were training explode? And had to spend a few days in bed due the injuries and exhaustion? That... It hasn't been even a week for me since then. You scared me a lot, I really thought that you were going to die, if not then later on with the way you insisted to train.

[The hand over his arms tightens hold slightly, remembering the sight of his wounded body coming out of the rumble stubbornly. For a second she had been about to yell at him for what he had done, sure that he was fine despite appearances, because saiyans were stubborn like that. But then he had fallen and no matter what he wouldn't wake up.

She frowns as she continues, not really caring if he listens or not. She just wants to say it, maybe that way it will stop coming back to her mind.]

I've never been so worried over someone before. Not even when Goku died and you were coming to Earth. Not even when Piccolo threatened to destroy my city. Yamcha noticed it too, like everyone probably, but he had to say something.

I don't really think he actually thinks the things he said, I mean, I have never given him reasons to think that, contrary to what he has done to me. But it hurt, that he would accuse me of that and of how I was housing the man who had killed my friends, who still wanted to kill Son-kun. We argued, of course, because I didn't want to accept that but... Now I'm here, talking with you and discussing about sharing a bed or our sexual life. It makes me wonder if it's because I really love you even if back there I still don't realize it, or if I'm just that bad as he said.

[Her voice doesn't sound sad, just hurt and despite everything it's clear that she has no plans of moving away from him or pushing him away again. She wants to be there, wants to have and enjoy even for a little bit what she will have in the future. But some things are still too recent for her and she can't help but wonder what is driving her to this, even if in the future the answer will clearly be one, that doesn't mean it's the same now. She will get over it, over the things Yamcha said, over the things he did and so will he, they will go back to get along well as friends which is probably all they should have ever been in the first place. But now for her? The wound is too fresh, and she just expects Vegeta to just shrug it off and not get it and get angry but, whatever, at least she has gotten that out of her chest for a while.]

Besides, I almost said something horrible to you. Maybe the you in my time would deserve to hear it, but you don't. And that set me back to think of all that... Sorry.

[He feels her tense up then relax; he'll pull her in a little tighter when her hand comes up on his arms. He lets her caress his face and play with his hair. Vegeta's head moves against her hand when she runs her fingers though, because he honestly likes that a lot- and she's the only person who is allowed to touch it. This is good, he thinks to himself, this is good that she's not pushing him away or freaking out on him about touching her or anything of the like. Not that she freaked out before when he'd kissed her, in fact she'd leaned against him first but he still has to keep in mind that this was probably shattering everything she knew to be truth from her time. If anything, she's taken it probably better than he should have expected, but then she was already informed about their son, dealing with him from a different future of hers already, but still. Having your reality shifted so drastically couldn't be easy. His own life changing the way it did was hard enough, but he had several years to go through that change, and she's doing it all in one day.

Her apology is really unneeded, but he'll take it. He silently presses his cheek against hers to let her know that it was fine, he wasn't offended and she shouldn't worry herself over it.]

[But above all he listens to her. He won't tell her but he's already heard this before, her worry for him, the fight she had with her feelings. Yamcha, he wishes so much she'd never mention that name around him. It doesn't infuriate him the way it used to but it's still not a pleasant name to hear. He never liked that weak idiot, and he honestly could never blame Bulma for wanting something better than that piece of roadside trash. Granted, he knows Bulma isn't exactly a shining example of innocence, but Vegeta honestly doesn't mind being part of the reason for their breakup. If anything at all it made him feel pretty good right now, because that loser suffered and he got the girl in the end, even though it was rocky to start.]

I remember that. [He chuckles softly.] I woke up after a nightmare and found you asleep at that table next to me. It was so strange to me at the time, why this gorgeous girl decided to stay and take care of me when all I'd done was ignore her and berate her to build training devices for me. I thought I was doing a pretty good job of letting her know I didn't want her around. But someone was persistent. [His tone is that sarcastic one he uses to make fun of his enemies- but playful, because he's talking to her, not someone he planned on destroying. And to further reinforce that he kisses her cheek lightly before continuing.]

I know you were worried, but don't you remember what I told you? I'm a Saiyan, I can take a little pain, it means nothing to me. Isn't that what I said? [Except now he's using that to try to lighten her mood a little bit. He's ok now, right?]

[He can appreciate her concern now at least, back then he couldn't of cared less and didn't want her pity. Back then he also didn't care about being responsible for the deaths of almost all her friends also. Now? He'd not even think to harm them unless they started a fight or got in the way of killing off a problem, then in which he'd be more than happy to oblige. He still didn't want anyone to end Goku's existence except for him, but he had no intention of doing that now, despite the fact that he did still want that fight he owed him. So it made sense that Yamcha would say something? He doesn't say anything against that. In fact he's going to leave that alone and try to put that in the past for her, since it didn't even apply to his character now.]

And furthermore I find it very hard to believe it's because you're "that bad". If that were the case then you and I wouldn't of lasted nearly as long as we have. And as you can probably already tell it's quite a while. Besides, I can't say that I don't enjoy the thought of being quite the homewrecker for the two of you. [He grins and kisses her cheek again, not afraid of displaying his cocky attitude about it.] But you're better off now anyway if you ask me.

[He also won't say anything about her second apology either- he appreciates that she thought about it before she unleashed whatever she had to say on him. He's not angry at you Bulma, in fact he's happy enough now that his response to your apology for everything is going to be a sly smile as he goes to turn her around to face her, keeping her in his arms as one hand pulls her in at the small of her back and the other snakes up behind her head.]

So why don't you stop worrying about that for now? I'm going to make sure you forget all about that sorry load of garbage while you're here. There will be no more talk of him anymore either, understand? Now quit it with all the apologies. [Because he's going to kiss you again Bulma, leaning in once more because he has really missed you these past couple of months despite all that boasting he does. He leans in and locks his lips on hers, if not more passionately than previously to assuage those doubts of hers.]
