Feel free to ignore this if you are busy but may I pls request a part 2? For Lord Beerus X God of Life Male Reader?? Just sweet domestic and romantic stuff, maybe the Z Fighters accidentally finding out about the relationship and shenanigans ensures??
Beerus x M. God of Life Reader pt. 2
Tumblr media
And here I am. Making a part 2. I kinda lost my flow but wanted to continue xD
Leh goooo!
Want more from me? Masterlist, baby
☆*: .。. .。.:*☆☆*: .。. .。.:*☆
🥢Chaos & Love🥢 (DBS or Dragon ball Super)
Warning(s): Fluffy as a pillow, Mxm (but duh bc the title), I DID not edit 😭😭
You just want to be with Beerus in peace, why must these earthlings bother your peace yet again?
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
It's a little ironic that you're the God of Life, but never found domestic behavior something you wanted to experience.
Well, until you met him.
The God of Destruction.
Something else ironic that you never thought you'd like.
Just this morning, you woke up to another body draped over yours.
It still takes a little getting used to after centuries of being alone, too busy to have an actual relationship.
And when you tried to get up to make a stop at your house, those arms weren't letting you go anywhere.
"Beerus. I need to go to my realm-" "-No. You're warm," he muttered in his sleep. You didn't want to be rude and make him cold with your absence...wow, he's making you too soft.
Not that you really cared.
You simply made a compromise. You took him with you.
His legs were wrapped around your hips, chin tucked into your shoulder, arms wrapped tightly around you as you navigated through your house. Grabbing what you needed with one hand.
"My clingy little baby," you mutter after a while, smiling to yourself. "Shut up."
He couldn't help that you were so warm and comfy.
"Hey [Name], can you grab my shirt?" Beerus half-heartedly mumbled, lazily pointing in a direction. "That's my shirt." "Same difference, I wear it more than you do anymore. Grab it, please. I want it," he whined with grabby hands.
At some point, he finally decides to wake up...
...only to hug your waist as you make lunch
You don't question his clingy-ness, usually, when you leave for your job for a while, he's extra clingy when you come back.
But you jump when his stationary hands begin to move.
"Beerus! D-don't do that when I have a knife in my hand."
"Lose it, then," he purrs.
Later that day, after those activities and lunch, Whis approaches you both in the woods.
You hardly looked over from Beerus's lap and he didn't bother to open his eyes from their relaxed state.
"Yes, Whis?"
"It seems Bulma has invited us to try Earth delicacies again. Would you like to accept her invitation?"
"Depends on what it is."
It was a good enough offer for Beerus to go.
Well, that, and you mentioned a curiosity about Earth food.
Beerus told you about it the whole way, quite pleased to feel like an expert.
Although the meeting was a little awkward.
Upon arriving, Beerus and Whis went ahead.
And when you caught up with them, you met eyes with Goku first.
Considering the last time you met, you weren't surprised he was suddenly tense.
Which made his other friends tense, one even rose their power level a bit.
Which made you laugh, loudly, "How adorable."
"L-Lord [Name]!"
You titled your head at the Saiyan a little shorter than him, "Ah, you know my commonly known title, young Saiyan?"
"Lord Beerus, look behind you!"
"You idiots, he's not a threat. He's with me!"
"I will not hurt you, earthlings, not unless you give me a reason to—Now, where is this pudding, Beerus spoke of?"
You tried a few dishes of Earth, though your speed of eating was much slower than the other non-humans. You preferred to savor your food.
And because Beerus kept feeding you some of his food.
"Here, try this, [Name]," he offered a...something.
"Sweetheart, let me try one thing at a time, okay?" but because you were whipped, you opened your mouth to try it.
"'Sweetheart'? Lord Beerus, I didn't know were with someone," Bulma hummed as she brought more food.
"Why do you sound like you're in such disbelief?!" Beerus growled.
"Wait-you both are together?"
"Goku, who asked you to snoop into our conversation?" Bulma barked across the room.
And after that...all hell broke loose.
"How did you guys...?" "When did you guys...?"
Beerus just yawned.
"I don't see Beerus being the date type."
"What even is a date?" He asked you. A shrug.
Cue the gasps from the ones who cared And now they were planning a date, great.
While they were busy planning some date, Beerus dozed off of you while you read a book.
It was peaceful until voices started to rise.
"You can't just ask the God of Life to spar with you, Kakarot!"
"But you said he's more powerful than Lord Beerus! I want to see that power for myself!" he whined.
"All you men want to do is fight!"
"But it'd be so cool!"
Your gaze flickered down when Beerus shifted, then up to the group ahead of you.
"Hey."
Their heads snapped over to you, the calmest voice of all, yet the most intimidating.
"Beerus is taking a nap. Stop all that yelling for no reason. If you wake him up I'm going to be pissed. And you don't want that. Even Beerus couldn't stop me if that happened."
"Someone's protective," Whis teased behind a hand.
"S-shut up," you scoffed, focusing on your book again.
Until you heard the words.
"We set up a date for you, two..."

What sort of relationship hangups do you think Krillin might have had? A lot of people talk about 18 and what hers might be, but what about his? I mean, he was abused as a child, he was 30 years old and hadn't had a single romantic interest, shucks he'd probably never even been kissed let alone been intimate before which can be very embarrassing for a man, he died a virgin twice... you have to think he's got some hangups after all that.
I would have to say that Krillin had to fight off low self-esteem from bullying since he was a kid, depression from Goku recently dying a second time, & intense trauma from dying twice and almost dying multiple times and from seeing his friends & bystanders suffer/die.
So, when starting their relationship, 18 would initiate it just as she did with the famous kiss.
Tumblr media
Despite all of Krillin's hangups that we both mentioned, he would try to mask his insecurities and pain with comedy while being genuinely compassionate towards 18. But Krillin would be neglecting himself in different ways. He's the kind of guy who will do for others he loves at the cost of his own well being (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual). And I believe 18, in her own way, would do things to show compassion for Krillin & how much she appreciates him and everything he does for her. Krillin would be that listening ear and comforting shoulder for 18 to cry on or hold her in his arms. And 18 isn't as cold as ppl think she is as innacurate depictions of her in GT and by Toyotaro make her to be. She puts up a tough exterior, but lets her gaurd down around Krillin. She would also show physical actions of affection by listening to him intently, kissing him, rubbing his head, & hugging him.
Tumblr media
Sidenote... I love this little reference in DBS EP 76 to Krillin & 18's first encounter! 💕
Tumblr media
And regarding intimacy, even though Krillin died a virgin twice, 18 has no recollection of her past to know if she was a virgin or not. So, regardless if she was or wasn't, their first intimate moment was something special. (I actually wrote part of a fic about this years ago & forgot about it... 😓)
So, despite both of their traumas & insecurities, they would build each other up due to being what the other person needs. They are in a way reflections of each other who both want the best for the other. Krillin's selflessness & genuine kindness gets 18 to open up more who in turn gives Krillin the affection he needed.
Tumblr media
I know it was mainly supposed to be about Krillin, but K18 reflect each other so well that I had to mention her side of things a bit too!

Top 7 WORST Dragon Ball Transformations
Honorable mention: Beast Zarbon
Because they turned my muscle twink into a bear...
Tumblr media
Super Saiyan God
Tumblr media
This fucker. As much as I like Battle of Gods, this redhead continued a trend that started with a green tinged Broly and ended with orange fucking Piccolo and a cast of otter pop flavored Super Saiyans.
At least Super Saiyan 4 wasn't just a recolor of a recolor...
Tumblr media
Orange Piccolo
Speaking of lazy, visually unappealing, late stage capitalism embodying recolors, Piccolo is orange now. Yes I know he hasn't been relevant in a fight since his introduction in the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament and briefly when Toriyama remembered against Second Form Frieza and Imperfect Cell, but it's ok, don't worry kids, HE'S ORANGE.
Tumblr media
Super Android 13
How is there still downhill from a trucker hat? Do you like this? Leave a comment on this webzone if you like this? Explain why you like his Vegeta hair and 90s earrings if you like this. Detail your obsession with blue skinned gingers if you like this.
Tumblr media
Third Form Frieza
Why is he a xenomorph? Why is he a xenomorph?! I guess I wasn't expecting him to be a xenomorph, which is typical for Toriyama, but WHY IS HE A XENOMORPH??? Like it's weird he's the alien from Alien, right? And it's weirder that he's almost 1:1 the pirate robot Goku fought in OG Dragon Ball
Tumblr media
Fifth Form Cooler
Oh fuck you. You fucking piece of shit. Fifth form? You're so non-canon it hurts. This couldn't just be his second form or idk his third form, since Frieza's second form was already Cooler. But it's his fifth! And Goku has to be there, because it's filler, so the threat needs to be bigger. It's not like the Frieza race are shapeshifters. Of course they're not dipshit, they all follow the same template. They're like the evolution chart detailing prehistoric ape to cromagnon man to blond guy. And this is his fifth form!
Imagine if this had been a Piccolo movie set while Goku was on Yardrat. We have Frieza's bro, who's not just miraculous stronger despite never doing anything about it, but he's still more powerful than the second form Frieza Piccolo fought. Idk. Fuck Coola
Tumblr media
Super Buu
This one is basically a Dragon Ball IQ test. At first glance he looks ok, maybe even cool. However, those with sufficient gray matter can easily ascertain that he's actually garbage, and that Fat Buu was the best design all along. He's just so generic looking, which is almost impressive for a guy so pink and sponge-y looking. Oh. And his transformation includes raiding people's wardrobe without realizing that shit don't even match
Tumblr media
Super Saiyan 3
See, a bad transformation isn't just about aesthetics. And don't get me wrong, the aesthetics are also awful. That caveman brow, the Raditz hair, those obscene spikes. But no, the worst part about Super Saiyan 3, the thing that I truly absolutely despise, is how effortlessly it cheapens Super Saiyan and Gohan's feat of going Beyond Super Saiyan
Because everyone had that thought the second Trunks arrived and went blond. That they could do it. Gohan, Vegeta, Ghost of Nappa, and any other Saiyan that might be out there. All of them could go Super Saiyan now, it's not prophecy after all. And that leads to the question of escalation. What next?
Well the Cell Saga answered this. Gohan was next. He went Beyond Super Saiyan. The boy did what his dad don't, he fucking mastered that shit. Then out comes Super Saiyan 3 like a baaaaad fart. But it only gets worse. It's a flawed, incomplete transformation that only works if you're dead. It's strong, but burns through energy faster than the body can collect it. And that's that. Dragon Ball ends, Goku saving the day without even using his new form. Dragon Ball GT introduces SS4 and DBS provides a crayon box of recolors for you to shove up your nose, all the while Super Saiyan 3 is left in the dust. It came, we all saw it, it sucked.

My Thoughts on OMNI-MAN VS BARDOCK
Tumblr media
Death Battle made its triumphant return today, and I've decided I'm gonna start posting short reviews of each new episode that comes out.
This isn't gonna be a long-winded review, just me sharing my basic thoughts.
And I'll be putting all of my stuff under the cut so that I don't spoil it for anybody. Please, make sure, if you're interested, that you watch the episode first, and don't read on so that you don't get spoiled.
To start off with, the matchup itself did really interest me. I remember around the time that Omni-Man vs Homelander came out that people were trying to come up with ideas for who would be a better opponent for Nolan, because frankly, Homelander was an absolute piece of piss for him.
And everyone, including the companies that own both Invincible and The Boys, knew that going in. So it wasn't really a hyped episode for who would win or not, but more so what was actually going to happen during the fight itself. Creating a spectacle was more important than creating a fight.
Not that Omni-Man Vs Homelander was bad. It is actually one of my favourite DB's from its execution, but the fact was it was not a difficult fight for Omni-Man AT ALL.
So when people started to think of who would be a much fairer fight for him, and one that had a lot of connections, Bardock was a big one, and it wasn't hard to see why:
Both are powerful alien warriors who are known for...kind of being dicks. Nolan is a Viltrumite, a race of highly advanced, powerful beings who conquer and dominate other planets. His mission on Earth is initially hidden but later revealed to be part of this expansionist agenda. Bardock is a Saiyan warrior, a race known for their battle prowess and ability to get stronger after every fight. The Saiyans, under Frieza's rule, conquer planets, wiping out their inhabitants for Frieza’s empire.
Both are the blood-related fathers of their series protagonists, Mark, AKA Invincible, and Kakarot, AKA Son Goku, respectively.
Both characters suffered conflict with their own people. Omni-Man's conflict comes from the fact that he is torn between his Viltrumite duties and the love he develops for his family and Earth, and eventually, he decides to defy the Viltrumite empire to some extent after being confronted by Mark’s humanity. Bardock becomes disillusioned with Frieza and attempts to fight back after learning about Frieza's plan to annihilate the Saiyan race. While his resistance is ultimately futile, he still stands against his ruler in an effort to protect his people.
Both characters are initially presented as being ruthless, unforgiving, and bloodthirsty, but this changes over time (across multiple iterations in Bardock's case) Initially, Omni-Man is ruthless in his mission, killing thousands to assert Viltrumite dominance, showing little regard for human life. However, as he develops a bond with his family, especially Mark, he begins to reconsider his values.And while Bardock begins as a battle-hardened warrior who cares little for the planets he conquers, he undergoes a transformation when he learns of Frieza’s betrayal and seeks to protect his home and his son.
And a few more on top of that, but I'm not sure I need to go through all the connections myself.
So, I start this off with the analysis portions of the episode, and I immediately noticed something when I went through Nolan's analysis.
I know this probably has to do with Death Battle trying to preserve their budget and keep their independence up, but unfortunately, it seems that we no longer have any cutaway scenes showing Wiz and Boomstick. They host the show as always, but we don't actually physically see them at all, not even during the post-analysis.
This is kind of a shame because, while yeah, the cutaways are normally hit or miss, the jokes they try to make land a lot better with them.
But on the other hand, it does make retaining the information a lot better. And to the credit, the analysis really made it clear where each characters strengths lay.
Going into this, I was under the impression that Bardock held an advantage, because I know the Dragon Ball scaling goes way above the scaling of Invincible. However, when I actually saw some of the feats Nolan achieves in the comics, compared to Bardock's...honestly kind of messy timeline, I started to change my tune.
I still held out for hope for Bardock, but when the fight ended and Omni-Man took the win...I understood why.
So yeah, the analysis and post-analysis were good because it really made me understand how the fight went the way it did.
With that being said, this was, to no one's surprise, a much harder fight for Nolan than Homelander was. Saiyan's just ARE stupid powerful aliens, and Omni-Man would actually have to put in the work for a win as opposed to completely stunting on the guy.
Okay, so now for the fight. If I had to rank it on a scale of 1 to 10, I think I'd give it a solid 7.
That's no fault of DevilArtimis, or Death Battle themselves though. Unfortunately, with the respective abilities these guys are known for, there's a severe limit to what you can have them do in the span of a 5 or so minute fight.
Besides Bardock's ki blasts, neither really have any powers of their own that don't just involve beating the shit out of people, tearing them apart, and just sheer brutality, so ultimately, what you are left with is a battle that just shows these two evil daddies pounding each other.
And no, I'm not taking back my phrasing there.
However, while that does limit my enjoyment of the fight, it doesn't do so severely. There's still a lot to love about the clash.
I always like to talk about my thoughts on the voice acting, and in this case, Omni-Man was reprised by Tom Schalk (also previously voicing Kool-Aid Man, Dio, Spongebob, and Megatron) and Bardock was voiced by Kamran Nikhad (previously having voiced Sephiroth, Mario, Boba Fett, Black Adam, and Martian Manhunter)
Schalk is one of the best voice actors that Death Battle have in their cast. He killed it as a sinister, condescending, and stern Omni-Man in Omni-Man Vs Homelander, and though he doesn't speak nearly as much in this one, he does equally well as a despaired, enraged, protective Omni-Man too. He killed it once again. As for Nikhad, he was fine, but definitely not the same sort of inflections that Sonny Strait gives Bardock that make his voice so iconic. Just a minor complaint.
Another minor complaint I have is Bardock's model looks a little weird, at least the mouth movements do, especially when shown from the side, and Nolan's model is kind of uncanny because it's weird seeing Omni-Man in 3D. Sure, he's 3D in Mortal Kombat, but that's also a realistic art style that would have clashed with Bardock, so I'm glad they didn't go that route. Still cool though.
And props to DevilArtemis for doing what he could to keep you engaged with this fight, and capturing both characters behavior, transformations, attacks, and inflections really well with the movements.
Considering, as I already mentioned, this fight would not go as easily as the fight with Homelander did, Omni-Man's attacks feel a lot more damaging, and ferocious than they did in his previous episode. My favourite part of the fight is when he grabs Bardock's tail, brutally tears it off, and then just whip slaps him with it. Definitely in line with the Viltrumites knack for tearing people to bloody chunks.
And for Bardock, considering he's an early Dragon Ball guy, it's really good to see some more recent recontextualization and coverage for classic feats. Also, for some reason, this is the first time we're ever seeing an Oozaru in Death Battle.
If I have any complaints for the fight, Bardock's Death was...kind of flat. It was brutal, but I didn't expect it, nor want it, to be so graceful. But that's all I really have to say about it. The sequence itself was really solid.
And in case I didn't make it clear, while I DO like Bardock more than Nolan as a character, the result did not dissatisfy me because, like I said, it was explained very thoroughly, and very well, in a way that made me understand.
Also, two little side notes, I want to address my take on a few arguments that I kept on seeing in the build up to this episode, and when the episode dropped. The first being whether or not Bardock should have been allowed Super Saiyan, and how it was kind of unfair for Bardock to be given a composite version of his character. To that, I say this.
First of all, if Bardock wasn't given all of his abilities across his iterations, this fight wouldn't have been nearly as cool. If you have the choice between seeing Bardock go Super Saiyan, or not seeing Bardock power up and go gold, why would you ever choose the latter? Death Battle tried to justify their decision, but for me at least, they didn't really need to.
What I wanted to know, in regards to Super Saiyan's conclusion, is this: Would Bardock having Super Saiyan be the edge he needs to win the fight? And would he lose if he didn't have it?
If the answer is yes, then I take issue. Because I don't like it when characters in this series win all because of one minor feat they have, especially if that feat is only semi-canon, like Super Saiyan Bardock is. However, in this case, the answer is no.
Super Saiyan definitely gave Bardock a boost that put Nolan on the ropes, but it wasn't enough to net him a win. So there's no real issue because having Super Saiyan ultimately didn't affect the results, so I'm fine with it.
The second argument I keep seeing is that Omni-Man wouldn't have been able to take down that giant planet without the 2 other characters that were with him. In the comics, he needed the assistance of those two, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to do it.
However, I want to note that the point that DB were trying to make was that Nolan, even if he was a third of the power required to take down that planet, is still VERY CAPABLE of wiping out entire planets on his own, and far more efficiently than Bardock would be. Bardock's own planet-busting feats weren't even his; he was scaled off of King Vegeta, so that's honestly more of a loose connection than Nolan smashing the planet.
And it's not as if that feat alone is what gave Nolan the edge in the fight. He still had all the other stuff like smart atoms on his side.
I will quickly remind everyone that this was not a stomp for Omni-Man. Death Battles usually aren't stomps, and they show off what both characters are capable of by pushing them to the brink. The aforementioned Omni-Man Vs Homelander is only one of few examples of unfair stomp fights.
And the last thing I want to talk about is the music track, though I don't have much to say on it. I know that Brandon kind of struggled with this track, but he did a great job, as he always does. With that being said, I still like Diabolical Invincible Me more than Solid State Invincible, not because SSI is a bad track, but because DIM is just...SOOO good, by a large margin. In fact, SSI even takes lyrics and beats from DIM.
So that's about it...A REALLY solid comeback for Death Battle. Not one of my top fights, but definitely a super strong opener.
...
...Although I feel like I'm forgetting something...There was one other thing that I really liked but I can't quite remember-

Top 3 DB Female Characters?
Chichi
Tumblr media
Bulma (DBZ, GT and S)
Tumblr media
Pan (everything except GTSeries)
Tumblr media
It wasn't easy here either because I don't know all the female characters, but it wasn't that difficult.
Chichi is in third place because I like her, but she exaggerates in some things, but she is a mother and wants her family to have a safe life, so I can understand it to some extent. I'm not a mother myself, but I'm glad there is a mother like Chichi who always gets her children to study and cares after them. Because some mothers are real idiots!
Bulma is in second place because she has developed into a nice character. I hated her in Dragon Ball classic because she was stingy and seemed to not care about almost anything, but the older she got the more I liked her and later in Dragon Ball Z she even became a mother and became even nicer. A part of Classic is still there but at least she is not so annoying anymore and hey she is married to the prince of the Saiyans and I don't want to hear anything bad about it! 😅
But I like Pan more. It was great to have a new female Son family member and I liked her as a baby and toddler too, it was funny to see her and how she annoyed others, for example Trunks. But in GT she was just annoying, she was almost never good except in one episode where she wanted to help Goku remember after he turned into a yellow oozaru. The exception was in the GT Special Son Goku Junior, then I liked her again.

I need a Dragon Ball actors AU where the original series began filming in the mid-'80s and from there the franchise became a world-class phenomenon. In my mind it would be sonething like this:
- The og series were filmed very quickly (only a couple of years) which explains the little change in some actors despite the time-skips of the series (Goku at 10 and 15 looks almost the same lol).
Tumblr media
- The actors of Goku, Krillin and Chi-Chi were around 10 years old when they started filming and with that iconic 3 year time jump for the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai they were replaced by older actors.
- Bulma's actress was 16 when she started filming the series, but she was not replaced after the timeskip because they made her look older with makeup.
Tumblr media
- DBZ filming lasted several years and the show won several Emmys and Golden Globes, including an Lifetime Achievement Award for Master Roshi actor.
Tumblr media
- By the time DBZ ended and GT was being planned, a large part of the cast did not want to be part of the series for fear of being trap in their characters.
- As a consequence many changes were made (also a problem with Toriyama no longer being the director/writer of the series) and it ended in GT not being considered canon by half of the fandom, but also being loved by the other half.
Tumblr media
- By the time it is decided to make DBS, the entire original cast of DBZ decides to return and the franchise renews its glory.
- Vegeta's actor is the funniest on set and he loves to put on his "Serious saiyan face" when fans ask him for a photo on the street.
Tumblr media
- Goku and Chi-Chi actors got married in real life and the fandom went crazy when they found out.
Tumblr media
- While filming DBZ, Gohan's actor was asked to bring his homework and school books to the set, so every time we see him on screen studying it's because he really was doing that.
Tumblr media
- Piccolo actor has said that he loves being a green alien because he is the only one of the entire cast who can still go out without being recognized by everyone.

Friends with benefits Broly x Reader?
Tumblr media
BROLY (DBS) X READER
☆☆ Content: ( au: post - super hero, friends with benefits, implied size difference, oral - male receiving ) ☆☆ Warning: ( M / 18+. MINORS DNI. explicit language )
☆☆ A/N: I can't believe I haven't written spicy broly since November, now he out here getting "foodie calls"
You don’t know how you got roped into this cycle of feeding saiyans. There was no obligation for you to do it like Bulma and Chi Chi, but it quickly became a regular thing and at least twice a month you had the three showing up at your home after training waiting to be fed. It all started with their new addition and your new mutual friend, Broly. You quickly became acquainted and whatever you chose to label your loose commitment, you grew more familiar with him than any other man you’ve known as “just a friend”. Regardless, you accepted this cook role for what it was if it meant you got to see more of Broly. Certainly, this was his excuse to see more of you. You even found yourself planning out meals for their next visit to flex your cooking skills. 
There was a language of love in cooking for others who enjoyed it, and it shined in your determination to awe them for the next time. Delving into recipes from the common modern cuisine to some from your cultural background. Sometimes comparing your own meals to the others often made you hesitant to try bolder recipes, however. Bulma can produce high-quality and multi-course meals at the snap of her finger, enough to feed them for months at a time. And Chi Chi’s a virtuoso with creating unique, hearty, and delicious home cooking from scratch, able to use all her resources to satisfy the hungriest of warriors. They’ve also been doing this longer, you have to remind yourself. 
But you’ve never gotten criticism from either one of the saiyans intending to bash your skills, only from how quickly certain portions can disappear without a ready refill from Vegeta and Goku. 
Broly never complained, he accepted everything you could give him with quiet contentment and simply ate his share of the large portions. It’s hard not to notice when the other two are so vocal about wanting more, so you just made sure to give Broly a little extra here and there. A polite thanks is given in return when you refill his plate before it empties. You don’t know exactly where he came from, other than Goku describing it as “repugnant”, but it was nice to know that someone capable of such frightful powers still came with his manners. He may have been the biggest saiyan you’ve ever seen, but he was without a doubt the most soft-spoken and polite, an amusing change from Goku’s free-and-easy demeanor and Vegeta’s snobbish persona.
You used to think the sex would help bring Broly out of his shell (it did wonders for Vegeta’s personality), knowing he is locked in this mundane routine of physical and mental training, but it may have just made him more docile. Perhaps he mistook it as more training for his emotions. It did make it easier to talk about with him, at least.
You eventually left the three to finish chatting up about their day and finish up the last of the food, returning to the kitchen to start cleaning the dishes. The only downside to their company was being left alone to clean up the mess so you figured you’d get a headstart. You weren’t left alone for long, however, a sudden large hand on your shoulder almost jolting you out of your skin from Broly’s quiet approach. You laugh off your scare and quickly take notice of the timid, yet distressed frown in his features, realizing it was there before he accidentally surprised you. Did you miss something over their mealtime?
“Oh, hey. What’s the matter?” You asked, concerned about the reason behind this change from his normal demeanor. Based on what you did tune into from their chatting, you could think of one reason this may be. “Bad training session?”
“No.” Broly paused, then looked further disappointed by his answer. “Not…really.” He corrected. They couldn’t stop talking about Goku and Vegeta’s exhibition while they ate, but Broly and Goku sparred too. Along with its abrupt end, it never came up for conversation. Had he not almost lost control, maybe things would have ended differently today. He would have a nice story to share with you on his progress instead.
It was truly an experience to be on the spectator side of a fight for once and Broly was moved to try to emulate the other two saiyans’ ability to maintain their power as they fought, however he couldn't overlook his lack of dominance over his strength and be ashamed. Being unable to control his power even after a couple of years of training with Goku made him feel like he was missing something in his lessons. He's improved dramatically, but still so much is left to learn.
“Did you…lose focus again?” You asked, halting your cleaning entirely to look at him. Broly nods softly.
“Only for a moment.” He admitted. Even for just a brief instance of a slip-up where he caught himself, he wanted it to sound better than it was, how it made him feel. In search of that relief, you were more than receptive to his troubles and willing to help.
"Do you need help with ‘focusing’ again?" You inquired further, a sincere concern with a suggestive undertone he did not miss. In fact, he hoped for it. With nerves building in the base of his chest, Broly swallowed the lump in his throat and nodded at you again.
You smiled at him, charmed by his ability to say so much with his actions than words. And still so careful and shy about approaching you for your “help” after doing this a couple of times already. You quickly felt your insides come alive, motivated by the decadent impulses that would consume you from here on. Indulging saiyans is truly a delight you never thought you wanted until you had it.
Calmly drying your hands, you close the space between the two of you and hold up your hands invitingly. At the ready, Broly follows along. His larger hands press into yours where your fingers interlock. He watches you close your eyes and take a deep breath, doing the same.
“Where am I?” You asked him and you feel the little squeeze of his hands around yours.
“You’re here.” He says, his heart skipping a beat but another deep breath eases its rhythm. Your smile grows hearing him do so and you reopen your eyes to look up at him.
“Where are you?” You follow up, giving his hands a squeeze in return.
“Here..” Spoken gently, Broly opening his eyes, finding himself lulled to the familiar relaxed state of being with a floaty sensation, yet his senses were so keen and sparked by the body before him. Then his eyes locked onto yours and he allowed himself to fall into his urges. Giving in only to those that could desire the warmth of your body, all others drowned out in the placid state of his mind. A shade of pink rises in his tan cheeks remembering the acute sensations of you, leaning down to kiss your lips the way he learned. He moved more confidently than he has before, more controlled, which you appreciated.
It’s not exactly the place you want to do this, but you doubt the other two would be in a hurry to move after putting away all that food. Urgency was the key still as Broly would have to return to Lord Beerus’ planet after this. You freed one of your hands to cup his chin, basking in the sweet kisses heating up between you as he fills his hand with your face as well. Deepening the kiss. His unspoken neediness reared itself quickly when you found your backside bumped against the counter, bound in the small space with his body pressing closer to you. A mess waiting to happen if you knock over the stack of dishes. So you opt for something else.
His pelt brushes over your nose when you got on your knees in front of him, the mixed scent of his musk from training and the last time you cleaned it for him filling the air around your head. Alluring and rugged, you couldn’t help taking a moment to let it intoxicate you. Half of your face disappeared beneath his pelt as you kissed along the tent on his formfitting pants, feeling it flinch in return. Your eyes peer up at him, checking in. Broly is slightly hunched over to watch you, eyes darkened and face glowing with his desire.
"I'm here." He reassures you, encouraging you to continue for more. He sees your eyes smile back at him and it felt like his heart was flipping in his chest in anticipation of what was coming next. You pulled the purple fabric free of Ba’s ear and down the bulge before you, freeing his hard cock as it hung erect above your face.
The size of it never failed to impress you, the mere fullness of his girth and its strong length bearing its weight. One could easily be lost in staring at it just by how intense it looked and only the brave like yourself could find how sensitive it truly was. That had to be your favorite part. You give the exposed head a kiss before you grab him at the base of his length and rub your flattened tongue across the tip. Broly took in a sharp, deep breath once your lips wrapped around him, falling past his lips with the shaky heat from his chest. His eyes softened at the touch, fighting his instincts to close them so he can keep them on you. This was where he needed his control the most, when you trusted him to hold his focus. He’d bite his lip bloody and bury his nails into the palm of his hand before he would let himself hurt you.
But it felt so good, the warmth of your mouth wrapped around the head of his cock, suckling around the sensitive glans and working your way further down the length with your hand coming the opposite way. It sent a shiver all the way up his spine as he leaned his hips into you, his voice creeping out of his slacked jaw. You truly enjoyed the way your mouth felt opening up to his size. It was easier for now, but you knew the further this went the more trouble it would be to hold it in your mouth as you were, let alone slide it as deep as you could.
Broly came with a little trick you never seen before and made you curious if all saiyans did it, but as fully erect as he was, he was far from his true size. With a strong hand cupping the end of the counter and the other on the nearby wall, you feel him buck against your opened mouth and your eyes look up to him, relaxing your jaw so he would slip free. His cock twitches more excitedly, missing the sensation of you.
"I-I'm here…" Broly breathed heavily. Practically pleading in his lust for you to go on, licking the dryness from his lips.
He does let his eyes close this time when you draw him back past your lips and his head lulls back as a moral vocal groan leaves him. As you picked up your pace, you started to feel his girth swell, expanding your jaw to a more discomforting stretch and you knew he was about to cum. Your one hand and lips couldn’t quite meet in the middle any longer, so you brought your second to add to his pleasure. Slick with your saliva, you switched to pumping the swollen length while you continue to suck only on the sensitive head of his cock, motivated to keep this pace by the lively twitches under your ministrations.

Note
How would you feel if Toriyama made Yamcha a fighter again and was actually stronger this time? I'll always be thinking how when he smacked Beerus in the back he made a face. What if he wasn't taken just by surprise that he did it but by the power behind it?
Like what if Toriyama did Yamcha dirty and decided he's not strong unless he does not want to fight?
Good question. Yamcha is still a fighter, for me. He never really gave up, even though what DBS showed us seems to say otherwise. I can't accept the fact that he threw in the towel, that was never like him. Yamcha always shows to us, in his own way, that he still has a passion for martial arts. Get it? Martial arts. That thing that long ago in Dragon Ball was the leitmotif of the whole story.
Tumblr media
However, I don't think Yamcha has really stopped believing in his potential. It is virtually impossible to do so after reaching such a power level that makes him literally one of the strongest human beings in the world. Plus if we consider the fact that, between him, Tien and Kuririn, Yamcha's features are the most "normal" (he's got a nose and only two eyes) we can also safely say that Yamcha is the strongest human being in the world.
Okay, this is a bit of nonsense that I sometimes like to bring up.... But think about it, it might as well be so if we have to be really precise.
Tumblr media
«JUST LOOK HOW SERIOUS HUMAN MY FACE IS!»
So, I would just be happy if his warrior attitude, that was never really buried, was put on display again. Even a little sentence, a hint, a tiny scene where he is seen fighting or training with one of his friends... That would be enough for me.
Tumblr media
Yeah, something like that... Dragon Buddies.
For example, I am so glad that he made his return in Moro Arc as a Z-Fighter; I would like to see the animated version of his moment. Unfortunately, I think this is not the beginning of his rebirth. I have always thought that Yamcha's only enemy is Yamcha himself, and partly so, but the truth is that the real villain of his story is Akira Toriyama himself. It pains me to admit it, but it is so. I can't understand why he is pandering so much to the idiocy of the DB fandom making fun of Yamcha.
Tumblr media
Yamcha laughing at memes about Yamcha knowing that he could destroy everyone with one finger.
The hell, even in Majin Buu Arc he was amazing. All right, I know, they're fillers, but you want me to be honest? The fillers took better care of him than the canon episodes and the manga. I mean, at the beginning he was presented to us as a 40-year-old man who had now given up martial arts for good, wearing a banana yellow suit, expensive and sadly unsuitable for battles. He just doesn't seem to want to hear about it. But then, after several episodes of him goofing off or being a fanboy in the stands, like everyone else Yamcha dies, and it is in the afterlife that his will to fight is reawakened after so long. As it was with King Kai before. For those who have followed him from the beginning of Dragon Ball, to be able to see Yamcha again happy, excited and strong, with his uniform on like the old days, is a joy to behold.
Relative joy.
Tumblr media
Guys, I can't accept the fact that Yamcha has to be dead to feel even more alive, or even worse that his existence depends only on fillers. Yes, I know, it's still better than nothing, though...
Another good job was also done by the OVA Dragon Ball: The Return of Son Goku and Friends!, probably the last work that remembers that Yamcha also exists and especially treats him as a very valuable fighter. I'll talk about it.
Tumblr media
This moment is still one of my favorite. It is one of the most badass things about Yamcha, plus it reminds me so much of a scene where Tarzan does the same...
Tumblr media
Look! On one side we have the ape man (no, not a saiyan), on the other side the wolf man... Damn, I love it! Well, maybe I'm digressing, but it is curious to notice how the act of undressing is cathartic for both characters. They both strip off a garment that does not really belong to them and wildly bring out their true nature, their animal instincts, but most of all their desire to protect those they love. That's Yamcha. After all, who says Yamcha has to save the world to redeem himself as a character? He can also do so by protecting someone. That is something he can do very well, and I will prove it to you. Anyway, I sincerely hope that his role in the world of Dragon Ball will also be recognized in DBS. I also hope he can use again even his sword, but unfortunately he became a meme and, apart from the Moro Arc, we only saw him slaughtered and humiliated even by his own friends. This is the saddest thing that could have happened, also because in OG Dragon Ball it would NEVER have happened. There is no more demeaning thing than seeing Goku completely ignore one of his close friends, one of the first, and treat him as if he were worth less than zero. Seriously... WTF?! The Goku I love would never have done that.
Tumblr media
Alright, that's the real Goku! Thank you!
I mean, maybe Goku wouldn't have invited him to the Tournament anyway, but at least he would have stopped in front of him to say a few comfortably words. As he once did.
Tumblr media
Because, you know, that's what you do with friends and those who have been there for you in the good and in the worst of times. Let us remember that Yamcha took care of Goku together with Chichi when the virus struck him in the heart...
Well, I try hard to think that this is all a joke, though I doubt it. I strive to think that the whole attitude that the characters have had in DBS toward Yamcha is just the result of a studied plan to piss him off and spur him to undress again and howl like he used to. But... I know it's not.
Therefore, even though Moro Arc slightly brought our Z warrior back to the forefront and confirmed that Yamcha is still very strong, I still do not consider myself satisfied. What I would like more than anything else is just a confrontation between him and the protagonist, Goku, in which the saiyan helps him believe in himself again. And if it is not Goku, someone else is fine as long as Yamcha is reconsidered with dignity.
I don't think I'm asking for that much. Goku has helped so many people, dinosaurs, mice, monkeys, strangers he has met only once in his life, even bad guys... So why not help the first character who consciously believed in his abilities?
Tumblr media
...Guess I have started a new topic. I will definitely talk about the relationship between Yamcha and Goku as soon as I can. Being the main character, a positive assessment of Yamcha by Goku could change the current idea of this character and make him much stronger as a result. I mean, Goku is the Mr. Satan of the real world. What he says is the truth, so it is only up to him to make sure that Yamcha can come back stronger than before.
Thanks for asking! 💕

Whenever I spent the summer with my cousins, my older cousin turned on the TV to watch Dragon Ball while his sister and I were playing with our dolls and we always came together to tease him and drive him away. It wasn't until I watched the series after school on my own that I started paying attention. One of the first scenes I watched by myself was when Trunks told Goku that Vegeta and Bulma were his parents, and that's when I got hooked. It was fun before but now I was invested. My mom was watching telenovelas downstairs and I was in my room watching Dragon Ball because I wanted to know if Trunks was going to make it. I got to watch until the Buu saga and I ended up loving all of it
I'm Mexican, and we love Dragon Ball here. It's part of our culture to the point I didn't realize it was Japanese for the longest time. Unlike many people, DBZ wasn't what made me a weeb, but in the last couple of years I started watching again, and I got to love it more than I did as a child
I saw the movies with my friends, and like the nerd I am I even started to look into Sun Wukong because of Goku
As far as Kpop goes, I liked Seventeen but Super was the first song I really latched on to, because it's a Sun Wukong reference and the choreography is a huge DB reference. If I'm a Carat now it's because of that song
I was so happy when it was announced that Daima would have a simulcast with the Latin American dub, because that's the one I saw as a child and the one I love. It's so engrained in my mind that as much as I respect Masako Nozawa I can't watch the Japanese version
Even if I didn't like it I still owe Dragon Ball because most, if not all manga I love wouldn't be what they are without it. The Big 3 (One Piece, Naruto and Bleach) exist the way they do because of Dragon Ball, and they in turn inspired so many more artists, and they have all inspired me too. It's artists inspiring other artists and it's beautiful
I just love Dragon Ball so much, and I can't believe Toriyama is gone

"ZENKAI-BOOSTS" EXPLAINED
Tumblr media
Saiyans have an innate ability that helps them get stronger during & after combat. I categorize them as "Zenkai-Boosts" & "Saiyan-Power." In this post, we'll look at how Zenkai Boosts function based off of what the series has shown us.
For more about Saiyan-Power, here's this link.
HOW ZENKAI-BOOSTS FUNCTION:
Zenkai-Boost are a way for a Saiyan to quickly increase in power after recovering from combat so that they reach their full potential. That potential varies for all Saiyans & most Saiyans were weaker than Raditz. But, once a Saiyan reaches their physical limit and push themselves past that point, a Saiyan will transform into a Super Saiyan IF they are strong enough and IF they capable of the transformation (& nearly every Saiyan was incapable of turning Super Saiyan). Most Saiyans could only turn into an Oozaru during a full moon. And very few knew how to increase their battle power on command (like the Saiyan Elite Nappa & the Super Elite Vegeta).
It's also important to mention that Vegeta surpassed his father while he was still a child and that Saiyans weren't even supposed to capable of reaching the level of power that Namek Saga Goku (who was trained by "low-tier" gods) & Namek Saga Vegeta (who is a Super Elite prodigy).
Tumblr media
ZENKAI-BOOSTS ARE LIMITED:
The series has never stated nor shown that Zenkai-Boosts are infinite. On the contrary, the opposite is revealed within the series.
Tumblr media
Zenkai-Boosts appear to apply for every Saiyan form. Each form can be pushed to their limit by Zenkai-Boosts until the Saiyan can no longer acquire a Zenkai Boost in those forms anymore. The current Saiyan transformation limit for Goku & Vegeta is Super Saiyan Blue with there currently being no Saiyan transformation beyond Blue. Both the anime & manga have relayed to us that Goku & Vegeta have reached their Zenkai-Boost limit for SSB.
Tumblr media
In a similar way, Vegeta reached his Super Saiyan transformation limit with SSJ2 before he learned god ki. However, he did manage to get his SSJ2 form to surpass Goku's SSJ3 form (which was Goku's transformation limit before he learned god ki). But... how do Goku & Vegeta surpass their Super Saiyan Blue limit without Zenkai-Boosts?
Goku uses Kai-o-Ken on top of Super Saiyan Blue. (DBS anime continuity)
Vegeta evolved the power of Super Saiyan Blue. (DBS anime continuity)
(SSBKK & SSBE are different in the DBS manga continuity.)
Tumblr media
However, both SSBKK & SSBE are still Super Saiyan Blue. All they did was find ways to amplify the power of their highest transformation through a technique or through evolution.
The other way for Goku & Vegeta to surpass their Super Saiyan transformation limit was to use non-Saiyan transformations that are techniques of the gods;
Goku uses Ultra Instinct (anime & manga)
Vegeta uses Ultra Ego (manga exclusive)
Tumblr media
Another way for Saiyans to surpass their limits is through Saiyan-Power; the Saiyan ability to get stronger during combat. But, this is not a process that quickly grants a huge leap in power.
WHO STILL GET ZENKAI-BOOSTS? 🤔
DO GOKU & VEGETA STILL GET ZENKAI-BOOSTS?
Tumblr media
From what we are shown, they do not get them anymore after they pushed Super Saiyan Blue to it's limit. They now have to level up like how Earthlings and Piccolo do by having better control if their ki in order to increase their strength. So, back to basics in a way for Goku. Having further mastery of your ki to increase your strength is something Vegeta has realized is necessary in DBS: Super Hero since he has reached a wall he cannot overcome (this differs in the DBS manga continuity quite a bit).
However, Goku & Vegeta still have their "Saiyan-Power" ability (the ability to get stronger during combat) to get themselves stronger when they spar against each other or are in serious fights.
DOES GOHAN STILL GET ZENKAI-BOOSTS?
Tumblr media
Regarding Gohan's Super Saiyan forms and his Ultimate form, he cannot get Zenkai-Boosts anymore. He has to rely on ki control in order to get stronger as well as his Saiyan-Power ability. However, Gohan can get Zenkai-Boosts while in his Beast form. He just hasn't faced anyone who can injure him in that form.
Similar can be said of Future Trunks with his Super Saiyan Rage form from the DBS Anime Continuity. Those forms can still get stronger from Zenkai-Boosts & such was shown for Super Saiyan Rage Trunks when he fought Goku Black & Zamasu.
DO TRUNKS & GOTEN STILL GET ZENKAI-BOOSTS?
Tumblr media
Yes, but they aren't really fighters nor are they proper martial artists. However, their SSJ form can eventually get pushed to the next transformation with enough Zenkai-Boosts & an emotional trigger. But, as shown with Vegeta, SSJ2 may be the highest form that they can get (without god ki). SSJ3 was only attained by Goku when training with a spirit body in Other World and by Gotenks through magic from Metamorian Fusion. So, SSJ3 is possible for them. But, Goten & Trunks individually haven't even gotten SSJ2 yet after 10 years.
Although Present Trunks & Goten have more potential than Goku & Vegeta, they don't have the same potential Gohan has. And like Gohan, they aren't obsessed with fighting like Goku & Vegeta are. They could be capable of a unique SSJ transformation like Future Trunks' Super Saiyan Rage, but they don't have any drive to get stronger nor anything drastic to push them to get stronger.
DOES BROLY STILL GET ZENKAI-BOOSTS?
Tumblr media
Possibly. But, since he awakened his full potential with his Full Power Super Saiyan form (Legendary SSJ), he may not get Zenkai-Boosts anymore or only has a few more left that he can get. I believe Broly's Zenkai-Boosts won't aid him much if any since his "Saiyan-Power" ability already brought out his potential without needing a Zenkai-Boost to do so. Due to Broly being born as an amazingly powerful mutant amongst the Saiyan race, his inborn Saiyan-Power ability is FAR beyond what even a natural born prodigy like Vegeta can do.
Tumblr media
While Vegeta & Goku required the use of god ki to reach their current level of power, Broly did not need to do so & was on par with their Super Saiyan God forms within minutes before he even turned into a normal Super Saiyan. Broly's "Saiyan-Power" ability is beyond insane.
DO CABBA, CAULIFLA, & KALE STILL GET ZENKAI-BOOSTS?
Tumblr media
More than likely. Although, SSJ2 was the max for the prodigy Vegeta. In the DBS Manga Continuity, Cabba & Caulifla haven't reached SSJ2 yet. But in the DBS Anime Continuity, Cabba & Caulifla may have maxed out with Zenkai-Boosts at SSJ2 despite Caulifla wanting to reach SSJ3. Then again, Universe 6 Saiyans appear to have more potential than Universe 7 Saiyans, so they may be able to reach SSJ3 or some other form.
Regarding Kale in both continuities, she may not have a need for Zenkai-Boosts anymore with her own unique SSJ form. If she can still get Zenkai-Boosts, she probably doesn't have many left.
DO PAN & BRA STILL GET ZENKAI-BOOSTS?
Tumblr media
Of course! Pan is 1/4 Saiyan, but still has Saiyan abilities & practices martial arts. Bra is 1/2 Saiyan, but we don't know if she will become a combatant in the main timeline or not. We just saw her as a kid cheering Pan on at the End of Z & she wasn't a combatant in GT. Bra might end up like her Uncle Tarble and just not be a fighter. Who knows. All I know is that they have the Zenkai-Boost ability due to having enough Saiyan blood in them.
According to the video game Dragon Ball Online that Toriyama helped create, future descendants of Goku & Vegeta lost their Saiyan abilities due to having so little Saiyan blood. They were mostly Earthling at that point. And they were only able to access their Saiyan abilities by making a wish to Shenron to unlock their abilities. Toriyama has repurposed some ideas from DBO like the Freeza Force returning when Goku & Vegeta are gone, a new Red Ribbon Army resurfacing, & Tien creating a dojo. So, if Toriyama wishes to use that idea about descendants of Saiyans that he had for DBO & implement it for the main continuity, future descendants of Goku & Vegeta won't be able to use Saiyan abilities (Zenkai-Boosts, Saiyan-Power, Super Saiyan) unless they have that power unlocked for them. However, the GT continuity differs as shown with Goku Jr. & Vegeta Jr being able to turn SSJ rather easily & without having the ability to transform unlocked for them. But, this is nothing new for GT. It has taken liberties with a many other things that end up contradicting Toriyama's established ideas.
➕ EXTRA ABOUT ZENKAI-BOOSTS:
Tumblr media
I DO NOT believe that Saiyans get Zenkai-Boosts that put them on par with the stronger opponent they face or an opponent they sense as some ppl believe (99.9% of Saiyans couldn't even sense ki). If this was the case, Vegeta would have recovered and immediately been on par with #18 without training for a year in the RoSaT to acquire a power beyond SSJ. Or Vegeta would've been on par with Perfect Cell after eating a senzu, or even on par with Beerus after being defeated by him.
Pertaining Goku, he would have been on par with Final Form Freeza when he was recovering in a Healing Chamber while the others fought Freeza. However, Goku wasn't even on the same level of power as Freeza even with the Kaio-Ken ×20 & Freeza was holding back. There are too many flaws in that theory for it to be a solid explanation.
I simply believe that Saiyans gradually increase in strength as they fight (Saiyan-Power) while also drastically increasing in strength after near death (Zenkai-Boosts). A prolonged fight gets a Saiyan closer to the level of a stronger opponent while healing after defeat increases their power even more. And there is no garuntee they will be on par with their opponent unless their opponent is slightly stronger than themselves like Vegeta vs Zarbon Round 2. However, as I mentioned before, these Zenkai-Boosts keep happening until they hit their limit. And that limit varies depending on the Saiyan. However, Saiyan-Power comes into play to help push a Saiyan to their limit, then slowly beyond said limit in order to get them to transform IF they are capable of a form higher than Oozaru. And as stated prior, majority of Saiyans were not capable of such.

🌏🪐 SUPREME KAIS, GUIDE ANGELS, GODS OF DESTRUCTION, ETC. ;
Within this blog, I pretty much am willing to write as and about all Supreme Kais, Guide Angels, and Gods of Destruction! + Any other DB character upon request! As long if they kind of fit the setting.
♥ Favorite Supreme Kais (no order!): Shin, Eyre, Zamasu, Khai, Anato. ♥
✑ The setting is pretty much post-DBXV2/(S)DBH. Based on canon, but with my own twist for my own comfort.
✑ Every once in a while, the Supreme Kais gather and meet up in The Multiverse's Sacred World of Kai. This is the "global" sacred world, not just "a" sacred world. Which is the blog is named after; 界王神界 (Kaioshin Kai!) Sometimes, the Supreme Kais would take their God of Destruction and Guide Angel with them. Or, their Attendants, ... or even just their friend(s). There are no strict rules surrounding these meetings. Kai Law in general isn't as strict as mortals would typically assume.
✑ My (base!)Zamasu is a redeeming portrayal. This version specifically, killed Goku Black together with Trunks. Despite my fondness for Blamasu, and gay jokes aside; this specific portrayal of Zamasu hates Goku Black. And is not interested in the Zero Mortals Plan. He still isn't keen with mortals... gods.. anyone. Zamasu is Zamasu, he's narcissistic, manipulative and unfriendly. He generally likes to be alone with his flying pet pig which I named "Daisy".
✑ There are some OC's present within this blog. Most important ones being Rubis (Anato's attendant), Solune (Khai's attendant) and Beadle (Eyre's attendant).
✑ Even though I don't really plan to focus much on ships. This is still a multiship blog! Ships may be present sometimes. This includes OC x Canon. Mute the tag "OC x Canon" and (other ship tags) if you don't wish to see it!!
I will add links soon for headcanons/dabbles/fics/information/etc. (content).
Current WIP's:
-- Fic: Zamasu's Origin (65%!)
-- Fic: Zamasu's Redemption (5%)
-- Backgrounds of Rubis, Solune, Beadle
-- Fic: Eyre's Origin story (0%)

OOc;; From DB? I have two. There was a very slim period where I tried to write Turles and Goku Black.
Turles never happened because I just- never felt myself connect with him or be able to write him beyond basic gremlin behavior. No matter how much I watched The Tree of Might, I never picked anything up beyond "get fruit, eat fruit, lemme smash." Even when I tried to get all of the content from him in Xenoverse 2, which there was a good amount to work with, it still didn't feel like I could get his character down. I also pressured myself to incorporate him into Mirin's backstory more effectively and honestly, I think I've just come to accept that he is a dead-beat space pirate dad who will never know his child and leave it at that.
For Goku black, in that same slim period, I tried to write an extremely canon-divergent version of him who went by Rose (pronounced like the wine). His whole premise was that his universe had been destroyed by his plan actually working out. But, he ended up destroying everything and now there just was nothing to rule over because.. you cannot create something from nothing. So he had an ego-death after several failed attempts to do the same thing and failing for one reason or another and just decided to try and fuck off into the ether. Only to be bothered in his isolation cave for shenanigans.
There was more material here, but I didn't have any interest in writing him. The few threads and interactions felt really hollow to me whenever I tried.
