Video:

[Hey, look, he's back with another subject that he's getting real sick and tired of explaining to people. That and after all the crap that's happened to him in the past few months, maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea to let people know, especially after a conversation he had with Cliff recently.]

Now I'm only going to explain this to the lot of you once. Now watch.

[He's out next to a sheer cliff, at the base of the mountain range. The camera is set on top of another rock, as to show the Saiyan Prince with his hand raised and aiming toward the rock wall- and as soon as it's raised, a blast of energy decimates the wall with a loud boom, leaving it as a rocky heap, the dust slowly settling. Vegeta hasn't flinched, and is coming back to pick up his journal again. This may also give away exactly who was responsible for all those explosions that were heard from last week, if people are smart enough to put two and two together.]

Now, with enough diligent training and meditation, which you should be doing anyway, any of you can do that. It's a simple matter of controlling your energy, but if you're not physically fit enough you're not going to be able to do it. In fact, I'd be surprised if even one percent of you manage to be able to achieve even a fraction of the same destructive force I possess. Either way, that might be something you'll all want to start aiming for. And if you're too weak to fight? Fix it.

Now don't misunderstand me. I'm not looking to pick up students. But if you think you can handle it? Then come find me. We'll see what you're made of.


Private to Firo:

Boy, you've stayed hidden long enough. I've got someone for you to meet.

Private to Cliff:

I do believe you and I have things to discuss yet. I'll not have you jumping me anymore with those pathetic attacks of yours, we're fixing that.

Private to Saori:

If you want to see how it's done, I'll be in the Battle Dome the rest of the day. Don't be late.



Action:

[As promised, he'll be at the Battle Dome if anyone decides to try to seek him out. He'll be actually in a chamber, training in a complete power suppressed simulation, working on his battōjutsu that he's taken up learning. Otherwise, those who know where to find him at home can find him at House 29.]

And a lot of ways is how it should go. You can create your own techniques with how you use your control on it. But listen. This- [He holds up his own energy ball-] can be expanded on, made into a beam, a bomb, anything you'd like, even a disc. You've got to make it your own. That's what I'm getting at. It's as much concentration as it is physical response.

Just focus on it, until you've got a good grasp upon it mentally and physically. Then do what you will with it. I can't make it a beam for you, you've got to tell it to, after all.

...

[He pulled the energy back and straightened his stance as he took a moment to catch his breath.]

...I see. So we're getting into that sorta thing, are we?

[He knew the basics, but not much more. Going further was treading into territory that was more closely related to Symbology in Cliff's mind. The cool headed focus required for that was something he often forgot about in a fight. He liked the rush too much, and he liked to get lost in it. Keeping his wits and his attention on the battlefield were instinct for him, not something he thought about.

Sighing, he ran a hand through his hair.]

I've gotta hunch that we're gonna end up back in the classroom for this one.

[misterbrief]

I don't see what there is to learn. It's simple. A force of will to create an attack. You've got the tools. What more is there to know?

[Really, he doesn't get it. But then again, he was born with an abundance of this power, a hereditary trait that was easy to master. That and...he's a shitty teacher.]

[aerialassault]

Agh-- I dunno. I'll let ya know when I get there.

[Because, truly, this is something he's going to need to practice.]

...I normally just leave the attack Symbols to Nel. Never really had a brain for them, and this is sounding kinda similar.

[misterbrief]

Symbols? [Dunno what that is.] This isn't that at all. Don't compare this to anything from your world, because it's totally different. I doubt that knowledge will help you in what I've been showing you.

[aerialassault]

It's a science that uses these symbols to channel different kinds of energy into offensive or defensive techniques, but that ain't my point. [He waved his hand before him as if he were clearing the air, for emphasis.] It's got a different kind of focus and control than what I do, kinda like what this might be getting to.

[misterbrief]

Then you do whatever it is that you have to. I still don't think you need to bother, but if that's the case, so be it. [Stiiiiillll don't understand what's so hard about blasting something.]

Other than that, that's all I've got for you. Unless you still want to have at me.

[aerialassault]

[It's hard when your brain doesn't grasp the concept of blasting.]

...I'm gonna need to practice that one, for sure. [Because. Seriously, man.] Later, anyway. Fun as it is fighting ya? Not gonna be something I wanna do every day.

[misterbrief]

Have it your way. I'm going to continue training if we're done here. Up to you.
