#Two Ron Swansons sitting in a room fndndn

we've both been stuck in DragonBall brainrot for months now and I've been so tempted to bait you into some comic RPs like we've done before for other fandoms, but seeing as your fave is Vegeta and mine is 18 and they both FUCKING HATE EACH OTHER I'm not sure how well that would work out xD

aaaAA our comic rps were so fun and gooood!!

Idk how Geets is toward her in the anime but in the manga/Toriyama movies he doesn’t really interact with her much, and doesn’t seem to have a strong opinion about … anyone in the group jdjsjs I know he’s super confrontational in the anime, but in the manga he behaves like he really doesn’t have any room to be a hater toward anyone but Freeza, who is Demonstrably Worse than he is jfjdj

I’ve never personally HC’d that he hates 18 outside of the 15 minutes of shame getting (deservedly) dog walked by her, but he’s not really in any position to judge how anybody else behaved in that era of his life, having been The Worst, which he does (at least in the manga) seem to regret by the end of that arc (if not by the end of his fight with Perfect Cell fjdj).

I can absolutely see why she might hate him though, or at least harbor resentment, considering his initial insults and then being the reason Cell Did That.

Granted, I don’t think Vegeta assumes anyone in the crew particularly likes him anyway, outside of his own family and Goku’s (Piccolo included), and I guess I always assumed 18 didn’t have enough Give-A-Damn in her body to think about Vegeta, haha. BUT I did always assume Vegeta had sort of a grudging respect for her by the end of it all, since Saiyans are all about carrying your own strength (and are 🤟 about strong women). Maybe some conflicting feelings about how that strength was achieved if you were to grill him about it, but he doesn’t seem uncomfortable with her at all in the manga after the Cell saga.

18 and Bulma seem to get along well, though, so I always imagined 18 and Vegeta had a ‘nod at each other when they pass in the hallway’, ‘former villains reshaped by the doki dokis 🤝 let’s never bond over this’ kind of relationship, haha. In that sense she’s probably his favorite, next to Piccolo, among the Z-Fighters just because he knows they’re never gonna try to have a Get to Know You conversation with him .

I am very /chinhands to hear your thoughts though 👀
