misterbrief | 6th Taunt

[It's been a few days since Father's Day. And he got a really nice surprise from his daughter that he never thought possible. Bulla training and honing her skills and power, it really meant something to him; so he's flipping his journal open now since Luceti played a large part of it. He's not even angry this time.]

It's come to my attention that a good number of you had a hand in the gift I received over the weekend. I will say I'm impressed- the lot of you have done the impossible with my daughter Bulla and it most certainly paid off. So for that...[His voice trails off, since saying these sorts of things isn't exactly natural to him.] For that I am grateful. I know a good portion of the time we are safe inside this barrier, but you must understand that I worry for her safety regardless.

So I suppose this is the part where I ask something else not so specific. The gift I received was for your Earthling holiday Father's Day. I've never put much stock in such things, but this last weekend certainly has changed my mind about it a little. Is this something you also observe in your own worlds? And if so, what is it that you've done or would do that you would consider worthy of your father?

[Well he did help out, and it was sort of fun. But he considers a moment. What would he do for Father Fujimoto? And he feels bad he did nothing here but...]

I guess I'd bring him some stuff for his grave. Maybe some oden. That's his favorite, after all.

I see. [So, his father was dead. Hopefully he'd gone to Heaven, because from experience Vegeta knows Hell is not the place anyone wants to be.]

Even in the afterlife, I'm sure he would appreciate that. Perhaps he might return from the dead for one day to be able to partake of that dish.

[Training Bulla was something she'd promised to do not long after she'd met Vegeta, though when they'd talked about it they'd come up with some complex scheme. Saori had been pretty surprised that Bulla had just so willingly, and oddly touched at the reasons why.]

You're welcome, my friend. Bulla was a wonderful student, and I enjoyed working with her.

[He chuckles lightly, not surprised much by the response.]

I should have known. Which style did you teach her?

-What do you mean return from the dead. Unless you're here, people don't just come back.

I promised I would, didn't I?

[She shakes her head and smiles]

Aikido and Judo. Throws to use your size and strength against you.

Neither do they where I'm from either, but- it's been known to happen a few times. Though the circumstances from what I understand have to be very extreme. If your father was a great man there's a small possibility, depending on how gracious the fool paper pusher in Other World is.

Judge the dead, hah. [Said very under his breath.]

[Cliff smiled, glad that his rounds of paintball with Bulla had helped a little. She was able to dodge the shots, if she focused. It was a treat to work with her.]

You're a real lucky dog, you know. Bulla's a sweet, talented girl, and not many guys who have daughters 'round her age can say that.

So that's why she was tossing me around like a paper bag. I was wondering where she'd learned that technique. [He laughs.] Yes, I suppose you did promise but I didn't think you'd actually get her to give it a go.

Father Fujimoto's the best man there's ever been. He used to be the Paladin, the strongest exorcist, and he's also the coolest guy ever. [But... that still doesn't seem right. Because if that was the case, wouldn't Koneko's parents come back? Or Shiemi's grandmother]

Well, when she put up the request, it make my job a lot easier, now didn't it? I didn't have to somehow convince her it was related to fashion.

You act like I didn't already know that. [He's still grinning over the camera though.] I'm quite proud of her, though I'm interested to know what exactly you did to help her. I hope it was grueling.

The coolest guy ever huh? [He can't help but mock that statement.] So what, your world is plagued with demons if he's an exorcist?

Yeah and yep. I'm an exorcist in training myself.

I'm surprised. There isn't a day that goes by that anything she does outside of the act of sleeping isn't related to fashion. I spoil her far too much.

I don't think so. You're a good father, looking out for her like you do. Besides, girls that age? You can't exactly force them to do anything they don't want.

So, you and Shiemi both. Interesting. [She'd mentioned they could summon demons. Well, just not here.] Then I bet you know an awful lot about Hell if that's the case. Gehn-something or whatever it is you call it.

[It's been a while and he's surprised he remembered that much of the name.]

Don't remind me. Trying to get her out of bed yesterday was a terror on its own. [And he failed miserably at it too.]

Gehenna. ... That's Hell though, like where souls go? I thought that's just where demons came from, and souls go somewhere else. [He'd not really connected the two, and only memorized the one name because Yukio had insisted. Somehow, he'd always figured that the afterlife where souls go can't be the same as the demon world]

Well she's had some training now. You could always...flip the bed.

[An amusing thought, that.]

How would I know? It was mentioned to me but not explained in depth. I didn't know there were two different realms of existence for each. I've never heard of such a thing. Though perhaps if that's the case maybe your father wouldn't come back from the dead.

[Such a proud papa. Cliff couldn't help but feel a touch of envy-- he always wondered how some of the men on the Diplo managed to balance being a 'terrorist' with having a family back in the Klaus system.

Maybe he really was starting to feel his age.]

I dunno. Does paintball without any gear sound grueling to you?

Doesn't matter anyway, 'cus Father Fujimoto wouldn't be going to Hell in the first place! [ . . . ] But you know Shiemi?

You know that's not such a bad idea. Maybe I will. If I'll do it to her brother then I can do it to her too. [Saori what have you done, Bulla is going to be so irritated when her father dumps her out of bed.] Maybe I should ask you for devious ideas more often, Saori.

[She's a big girl...]

Oh I'm not really good at that sort of thing. It's just something I think my father would've done for me when I was younger, that's all.
