Miles, Terry and Will had been roommates for at least several years. One thing they had in common, was that all three were big fans of the Dragonball Z universe and avid players of Xenoverse 2. As all three were highly competitive, they were all trying to prove who was the best at the game.

Terry came up with a bet that the one who loses first in a free for all has to be socks for one of the other two for thirty days. The one who beats both opponents gets to wear the one that lost first. Miles and Will agreed to the conditions as well. Terry only made that the bet, because he played the game a little more than the others and thought he would definitely win.

Terry found himself the first one being defeated while using Majin Buu. Miles and Will paused the game to gloat a little since Terry was the one who made the bet. Terry placed his TF Phone down for one of them to pick up once the winner was decided.

Will end up winning their fatal three-way fight using his favorite character, Vegeta, super Saiyan blue form. Terry wanted to back out initially, but a bet was a bet. He had to see it through despite that he was predicting that he would be using his device on one of them.

Will picked up the device and made the settings. "It's only for a month. I am sure you can survive my feet for that long." He spoke laughing while he flashed it at Terry. Terry vanished and in his place on the couch was a brand-new pair of white socks. He picked up the socks and tried them on his bare feet. "These new socks feel great." He said to Miles, not even acknowledging Terry. Terry was a pair of socks for the next thirty days. There was no need to acknowledge his socks. "He or it really feels that good?" Miles asked. He too decided to not acknowledge the sock's former form. "Yup, I think I will wear my new socks every day. I really want to see if this pair can survive my feet without getting a hole in them for the next thirty days. Normally, I have a hole in my sock after two weeks. Maybe this pair might be different." He laughed as both he and Miles started up another game.

Terry instantly knew his bet was a terrible idea. Will's feet had a slight odor to them, but not horribly bad yet. He was just an object on his roommate's feet. The fact that neither of them acknowledged him made his new existence feel even worse. Yet hearing that his socks has a hole in it after two weeks scared him. If he develops a hole, it would be nearly impossible to transform him back to normal. He would be forever trapped as a pair of socks. He mentally pleaded for Will to turn him back to normal before a hole could even develop, but he was a pair of socks with no voice or even movement. The only motion he would get is by his owner's feet. He just hoped that he would be durable enough to serve the thirty days.

THIRTY DAYS LATER....

Will had put his new socks through so much. He literally wore him every day. He wore his new socks to the gym, and every workout session. He wore him to work and just simply hanging out. He slept with his new socks on. The only time he didn't wear them was to bathe, jerk off in them on occasion or as a cum rag. A tiny hole had developed on the sixteenth day of wearing his socks, but they were his possession for thirty days and he was going to keep true to the bet. When it was finally day 30, he took off his socks. He found Terry's human setting and flashed the socks, but nothing happened. He tried it again, yet still nothing happened. He asked Miles what the problem could be, but he didn't know either. They found the manual in Terry's room. There was a warning. If you become clothing, make sure you don't get torn or ruined or you might be forever trapped as that object. Transforming back to human might be impossible. Looking at the large hole in one of the socks, Will realized that Terry was forever trapped this way. He put the socks back on. He felt slightly sorry for what his feet had done to his former roommate, but he did say that socks usually don't survive his feet unharmed. This seemed to be true for even human transformed socks. He decided he would keep his new socks. If they get torn too bad, he could always keep them as his favorite cum rag.

Terry's mind was completely gone by the end of the 30 days. He tried to hold on, but once the hole started to develop, it started to unravel his mind. He lost all sense of free will in his mind. He was just a dumb sock slave serving his master's feet. His only pleasure was being worn by his master. He even forgets that he was once human. He loved being used and worn by his Master Will, even though his existence was one of pain every time being worn and sometime reek of foul foot odor. As long as his master was fine using him, he loved his life of being just socks.

Will was completely unaware of his feet had done a number to his roommate over the course of the 30 days. HIs feet had completely destroyed his mind and turned his former roommate into a dumb sock slave. Even if he could transform him back, Terry would be down at his feet begging to be close to him. Now his fate was sealed, to forever be owned by his former roommate as just an object on his feet.

Requiem for a Bio-Broly

So I looked at the new Sparking Zero lineup, and it's currently at 184 characters, if you count the three DLC guys. And once again, Bio-Broly did not make the cut.

I'm not really surprised, but it is kind of interesting that this guy has never made it into any of these fighting games. He's in Dragon Ball Heroes and Dokkan stuff, and I'm pretty sure that's because those card-based style of games need as much variety as possible, which is why they do all those what-if characters and scenarios.

It only really surprised me when Budokai Tenkaichi 3 skipped him, because that game had a ginormous roster, to the point where it was tough to even guess how they'd fill all the slots. And unsurprisingly, often-overlooked movie villains like Garlic Junior and Dr. Wheelo were on the roster. But not Bio-Broly. I think that's when I first got intrigued about his exclusion from these games, because BT3 was the first game to get all of the other Z movie villains in it, and that made Bio-Broly conspicuous by his absence.

The later games had smaller rosters, but they also seemed eager to add some special attraction, usually a character who hadn't been used before. Raging Blast 2 had Hatchiyack, but also Androids 13 and 14. Battle of Z really touted Beerus and Whis, since I'm pretty sure that was their video game debut. And Xenoverse 2 has been adding DLC characters for the better part of a decade now. You'd think one of them might toss in Bio-Broly, if only for the novelty of it, but no.

I don't want to sound like some kind of Bio-Broly fan. The character sucks, and so does his movie. But he was still a movie villain. Like, that's kind of a special status in these games. They get used as bonus stage bosses or special unlockable guys, or whatever. GT is pretty awful too, but it's still fun to see Omega Shenron and Baby in these games. I would argue the games are the only time GT characters are really handled properly. I'm sure someone could come up with a cool story mode segment involving Bio-Broly. The quality of his movie is irrelevant.

So with this game, Sparking Zero, I figured he was probably going to finally get his spot, if only because there were so many spots to fill, and why not toss him in there, if only to get a complete set of movie baddies? But it looks like he got shafted again. I mean, they could still put him in as DLC, and I would think they'd just about have to. I mean, they probably want to do lots of DLC characters like with Xenoverse 2, but they already put so many characters in the base game, so who's left? They could do Cell Max, and some Daima characters, toss in some OG Dragon Ball and more Tournament of Power guys, but it's weird that we're even talking about this when there's a Z-Movie guy they've never used.

Like, imagine if Metal Cooler never got to be in any of these games. Everybody else, but for some reason Metal Cooler just never shows up. Movie 5 Cooler's there, and so is his final form, but no Metal Cooler, no explanation given. That'd be weird, right? After a while you'd wonder why that is. I mean, Cooler's henchmen have made it into some of the games. There's room for Metal Cooler, so why wouldn't they use it?

I think it's widely understood that Movie 11 is one of the worst, if not the worst of the DBZ movies. But I've never really seen anyone actively hating on it. It's more forgettable than offensive, and yet, Bio-Broly's exclusion from the games makes me wonder if that movie did more damage to the brand than I've ever known. Like, maybe it performed very poorly, or there's a lot of hard feelings over that production, so everyone at Toei just keeps the character as obscure as possible. I mean, they put him in the Dokkan and DBH games, but you never see like ads for that. Maybe they're worried that putting Bio-Broly in one of these roster reveal trailers would be so offensive to fans that it would hurt the sales? That seems pretty far-fetched, but that's where my mind goes on this.

Most likely, they just don't put him in because there's so little interest in the character, and there's always someone else they can stick in the game instead. I think there's a very real case to be made for adding in more Tournament of Power characters. If they put the whole Universe 10 team in a DLC pack before Bio-Broly, I'd be like "Yeah, that makes sense."

I just wonder where the bottom is. How big does the roster have to get before Bio-Broly becomes the next best choice for a new addition? 184 isn't the answer, but what about 200? 250? 300? When does it just get down to Bio-Broly and like... Shu wearing his fake Goku disguise?

I mean, obviously Fake Goku should be added before Bio-Broly. Look at this guy. He's great.

[universe2snumber1fan]

I feel like they should become friends. Although it might get a little awkward...

@romantic-ageru-yo I felt inspired by your k18 works and had an idea (the context for the pairing is on xenoverse 2 pq 171 btw)

(Also @bliss-wily @queerb @sternbagel consider this an apology for the angst)

[halfling-myth-lady]

I’m having a list of fun with reborn,and I thought I might get into more fan games after I’m finished with it.

Note:the only reason rejuv isn’t on here is because I want to wait for it to be finished.

[bliss-wily]

And Zarbon as a partner too. How would he be as a romantic partner?

Gender neutral, SFW and under the cut.

Now I know I’ve definitely written for Zarbon before. This will be more extensive than the ones I’ve written for Dodoria for…reasons. Obvious reasons if you’re even on this account for a mere second. As always I’m sorry if these overlap with anything anyone else has said. I promise it’s coincidental. Official media has given me much of this context so anime, manga, games, etc.

Now I don’t normally write - especially ‘romance’ but I tried.

Now let’s start with some context…

•I imagine his people have romance as a core value. This will be important for some of these headcanons.

•I think his people might also be cold blooded (literally).

•I’m a bit wary of saying this (as I’ve faced some backlash before) but based mostly on Xenoverse 2, I also headcanon that Zarbon is autistic. This might be needed as context for some.

Headcanons for his ‘normal’ form:

•He would love his partner ALMOST as much as he loves himself.

•Just give the man attention, he can be a bit needy.

•His s/o will become one of his favourite topics of conversation. Guess who Dodoria and Frieza will be hearing plenty about?

•A complete flirt and a charmer…maybe unintentionally at times. He’s a little oblivious.

•Flirting back may turn him into a highly flustered mess though. It’s one way to break that stoic exterior of his.

•He is going to vent a lot. He’s very high maintenance.

•Expect fancy dinners and classical ‘romantic’ dates.

•Oh and spa dates of course. He likes being pampered.

•Expensive gifts as the man has more money than sense…or so it may seem.

•He’s more emotionally vulnerable than he seems, be patient. I imagine being a right hand man to Frieza is difficult.

•Be prepared for public displays of affection. The would want everyone to know.

•Probably occasionally gets scolded if he’s being a bit of a drama queen.

•If he isn’t with his partner due to work then expect plenty of communication.

•Play with his hair, sure it’s likely a death sentence for most but not his partner.

•I don’t think he could handle silent treatment. He would grovel.

•He would be very animated when he’s excited or passionate. Especially if he’s talking about his interests.

•Expect this to be more amplified if he’s drunk, only on the finest wines of course.

•A clingy drunk who will absolutely cry over his partner. He strikes me as being very emotional at times.

•Also clingy if it’s cold, he needs heat. His s/o must provide him with heat! (Unless they’re also cold blooded then he’s screwed)

•He’s not going to be monotonous with his partner most of the time. His other half would see the truest version of himself.

•You will be fighting him to use the bathroom though. I expect the shelves would be lined with all his products too. The bathroom is HIS space.

•Don’t touch his scarf collection either, without permission anyway.

Headcanons for his ‘monster’ form:

•Cuddles now.

•He needs some reassurance. After all he feels ugly like this.

•Somedays he might just wake up like this and will absolutely refuse to be seen in public. That doesn’t mean he wants to be alone though. He needs his other half.

•Although the first time this happens he would probably be trying to hide or be very avoidant. He would be quite ashamed of himself for being like this.

•An oversized puppy.

•An oversized overprotective puppy.

•Did I mention cuddles?

Pokemon xenoverse Lech Aspera Tizdayen Astra (arsism AU) dlc pass 5 rewrite (because the old version is too different & sucky):

After the whole chaos in mt. Zodiac, Sorrel went to the apollo tournament as an opportunity to get stronger, he really loved to battle and he also wanted to be the strongest to ensure safety to his loved ones, specially Chrissy (amongst pokemon), he felt like Chrissy needs him the most, he battled through every participant in the apollo tournament, they were all no match for Sorrel and his pokemon, Chrissy, Luxflon, Chirp (Vesperfurm), Suigetsu (Suicune), Bingus (X Mewtwo) and Charry (Charizard with mega X key stone), but then, the final trainer he had to battle, Trey, but, isn’t Trey dead? He battled him anyway and won, after this he saw himself in an event horizon, but a bit different from what he was in the battle of him and Alice against Vakuum, then he saw Vakuum with his own body but fury energy’d, Vakuum said “Sorrel, you pesky lil fucker, it’s about time we meet again, i will destroy you” he took a step closer “you might have beaten me-“ he steps closer again like that scene where Darkai in Cresselia disguise tried to kill the hero & partner (in pmd eos) & said “but im still way above you Sorrel-“ he stepped closer again “its time to say goodbye-“ he took another step towards him “to your friends-“ he stepped towards him “to your pokemon-“ he took another step “to your world-“ at last, he was right in front of his face “to YOUR OWN BODY SORREL, IT IS TIME FOR ME TO EARASE YOU FROM EXISTENCE” he then snapped his fingers, but nothing happened “HOW?!!!” Said Vakuum & tried again, nothing happened Vakuum said “Your alter self… defending you… why? Aren’t you enemies?….” Sorrel then started to get flashbacks from his journey, the places he saw, his friends & pokemon, Gengar, Ruta, Ginger, Nuphar, Abraham, Niva, Henna, Chua, Peyote, Caspar, Luxflon, his own shiny Luxflon, Suigetsu, Charry, X Rapidash of Trey & his own X Rapidash (who was once a Ponyta), Chirp, Chrissy, his cousin Chrissy, Bingus, Alice, Heck even Versil for some reasons, Trey…. Everyone…. Sorrel then feels a strange feeling, a feeling of power, a feeling of control, Vakuum’s eyes widened, he said “Why can’t i possess you nor kill you?!” He then sensed Sorrel’s ability of control, Vakuum said “Wait- don’t tell me-“ Sorrel then smirked a sadistic smirk, which was very rare, he said “Oh, damn right Vakuum! Damn right! Im gonna do it!” & then he transformed himself into a monstrous-thingy-creature, he also powered his pokemon up to an insane amount of power, now that he can bend the event horizon to his will, his pokemon also got new forms btw, Vakuum sent the exact same team as Sorrel, except they weren’t powered up to an insane amount, so Sorrel beat them up, but Vakuum was stubborn, he didn’t give up, so he sent a strange hybrid of X Trishout, X Shulong, X Shyleon & Dragalisk, but Sorrel who was insanely powered up beat the crap out of that monster & even inflicted some damage upon Vakuum, he then transformed to Normal, he stepped closer to Vakuum until he was right in front of him, Vakuum said “Yeah, i know, you’re stronger now! I get it! You’re really angry at me for trying to use you as a puppet & kill your Pokemon & friends! I guess i have no choice now…. Fine, you’re really mad at me, Right? Do it, kill me, erase me from existence!” Vakuum looked at the floor, away from Sorrel & said:

“All i ever wanted was to erase humanity, I thought maybe because you’re a furry and humans hurt you in the past then maybe… just maybe you’ll understand me….” Vakuum took a pause “the reason why Luxflon split off me… in the past, i heard my father & father, the creators of the universe, Cypress and Atlas, speaking about humans, i knew that in Atlas’s past, humans literally abused the crap out of him, shunned him, attacked him, a lot of evil things before he was turned into a god to rule with Cypress, I thought that if in Atlas’s home-dimension humans were that much of a monsters, what will happen if they were to exist in our dimension? A part of me, Dragalisk, agreed with me, wanted them to be destroyed, but another part of me, Luxflon, didn’t agree, he claimed that they are different and that we can’t judge them based off the humans of a completely different dimension, but I didn’t agree with my alter self, Luxflon, and then he splat off me, and thats where the story you know begins, of Luxflon creating the world” he paused again, “i saw what you went through Sorrel, the team dimension stuff, your father…. He literally tried to take away your dearest friend, your Trishout, Chrissy, he even got physical with you so you’d submit & do as he says, and that blue haired guy with the hairstyle that looks like a dick, Aster, we both know what he did to you, you remember damn well how he had anger issues & constantly got raged at you, tell me, How? How do you still accept humans as they are?” He pauses again and now grabbing his hand & sits with him, he speaks again “How were you able to just brush that Versil guy off your brain? Why do you still love Aster even though you literally feared his mere presence before? Why do you still care about humans even though you know they can be very very evil? Are you a masochist or something? Do you like to suffer?…. I don’t get it….” He finally looked into Sorrel’s eyes “I simply care, you know? I just don’t want this world to be ruined…. I don’t want anyone to suffer… i want some justice….”, during his explanation, Sorrel’s expression softened, he felt bad for him, Vakuum wasn’t evil at all, he simply wanted to help, but Sorrel knew how to fix it, he just gotta show him *how* to help, he gotta show him the correct way,

Sorrel said “I get your point of view and your will to help, and no, I really don’t like to suffer, i also don’t like those evil humans out there, but, not everyone is like that, you know? I didn’t just brush Versil off my brain, all this xenoverse incident thing is a trauma for me, it won’t disappear, i just stand up & try to move on, and about Aster, even tho he wasn’t always the nicest person ever, he still is a good person, he simply did a mistake, everyone do mistakes, both pokemon & humans, heck, even furries, not all humans are bad and evil, some are really nice and kind, like Alice, like Trey who’s actually a cyborg but was once a human, like Ginger, like Ruta, like all my friends, Alice was there for me during the whole journey to stop team dimension, she could just ignore me when i needed comfort & mind her own business, but she actually gave a fuck, Aster didn’t had to adopt me & take care of me, yet he did, cuz he’s kind, these are examples of good ones, but, i can tell you what, if you truly want this universe good and un-ruined then you could try and DESTROY the bad ones, they actually deserve that, and no, im not killing you, you don’t deserve that” he said with a calm and soft tone, smiling at him, Vakuum got surprised, he didn’t expect such kindness from the one who he literally hurt & worsened his trauma, but he brushed that off, he said “You… really aren’t gonna kill me?……” Sorrel nodded & said “No, im not planning on killing you, death is only a punishment for bad people or a saviour to those who are hopeless in life, like people with cancer, but you are neither of them, so go on, continue living your life as regular, BUT-“ he grabbed his hand gently “promise me that you’ll change your way” Vakuum smiles to him & said “thanks you… i will keep up this promise to you, and, if you ever need me, just ask for my help, i now owe you” he then vanished away to the place above (where all the gods are), Sorrel’s vision then faded,

He then saw pure blackness, until he saw something, he saw his house, but in a ruined & lonely version, instead of him he saw his Alter self and his X Trishout, it was basically the point of view of Alter Sorrel, Sorrel got Chrissy & got stronger, he got to embark on a journey, he got to access the power of Astral, Terrestrial & xenoversal energy, he got friends, he got everything while Alter Sorrel got nothing and was lonely, after this very sad sight, he saw himself in an event horizon again, he saw his Alter self, Alter Sorrel said “Sorrel, what you just saw was my POV, this is how i felt this entire 13 years, i bet you had a laugh seeing me like this- just kidding, no, this is over, this argument is over, i admit, i DO NOT hate you, in fact, in this sanity-consuming loneliness, you were the only one i had, even though i only threw my anger at you and nothing else, i still feel a little bit less lonely with you, so don’t take it too seriously” and then he vanished, but then Trey appeared behind Sorrel & said “Sorrel, long time no see, you’ve gotten even stronger now, didn’t you? Tbh, i kinda miss you, you know? How has it been all the time without me? I bet you missed clinging to me like a damn Necrozma to a Lunala, haha!” Trey paused but then spoke again “but no, seriously, neither do i know why am i here, although i do feel like we are gonna reunite again”, he paused till he spoke again “but, now you can create everything you want, what will you create? Maybe bring back the xenoverse, to stop the fury energy problem, you know?” Sorrel nods in agreement & then recreates the xenoverse, suddenly, both Trey’s & Sorrel’s vision went blurry, until it all faded, later they then woke up at Stardust beach, Sorrel coughed some water out of his throat, until he heard a familiar voice, “Kinda annoying needing oxygen, doesn’t it?” He looked besides him & saw Trey, Sorrel then got extremely happy, Trey said “yeah, neither did i predict that” he then grabbed Sorrel’s bag & took back his pokemon that he asked Sorrel to keep for him, he then let Sabolt out “Sab!” Sabolt said while being happy, Trey asked “Do you still live with Bitch-sil? Because knowing you, I don’t think you can even look at his 69 years old-looking face without getting trauma triggers” Sorrel said “actually, i live with Aster now, you know, that blue-haired 30 years old guy” Trey said “30? He looks 45” suddenly they heard a voice “Sorrel?! Trey?!” They both looked & saw Aster, Trey, being a cocky bitch, said “Actually, he looks 69” Aster ran to them & asked “Trey?! How are you alive?! Didn’t you die?!” Trey said “I don’t know what happened, but, are you aware i just insulted you??? Are you ignoring me on purpose???” And then Aster ignored him knowing he did it on purpose to spite him off & said “well, glad you’re back, you know, Sorrel really missed you, he sometimes had nightmares without you, he was in real misery” Sorrel asked Trey “Trey, where are you gonna go now? Do you have a house or somewhere to be?” Trey said “no, but i’ll be ok with living in the streets with Sabolt” Sabolt gave Trey a sad look “Sab…” he said with a sad tone, Sorrel, without asking Aster, said “Well! You can come with us!” Aster was shocked but quickly brushed it off, he was pretty rich and he didn’t had problem letting Trey stay, in fact, it might even make Sorrel happier, so he said “yes, you’re free to live with us, no worries about rents, i’ll pay them all” Trey said “hm, really? Ok”, he then went to live with them, everyone then had a much more peaceful life, not really perfect like they say in most stories’s endings, but it was much better, of course Sorrel is traumatised reeeaaaaaaal bad, and theres a lot of things that are unrecoverable, but its still better that way, the end

EPISODE 1: CONSPIRACY

Hello, hello! Welcome back to weekly Dragon Ball commentary- feels good to say that, these posts were my roots on this website.

I would like to thank a friend for sharing their Crunchyroll and to apologize in advance to my roommate who has already caught me mid-ramblings- sorry, bestie, this is going to last several more Fridays.

Anyway, onto our very first episode of Dragon Ball Daima!

Firstly, an amazing "welcome back to Dragon Ball" recap. Since the Power Pole is due to make its comeback, I'm not surprised that they didn't forget to include a reference to the series roots in OG Dragon Ball- and the fade to them growing up AAAAHHH MY HEART

"Saiyans are known for appearing youthful for longer"- OH YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW

And speaking of recapping, we're introduced to the silly little demon clown guy, Gomah, and Shin's out-of-nowhere brother, Degesu, as they do an abridged Mystery Science Theater of the Buu Arc. Apparently, all powerful Demon Not-Kais still rely on pen and paper to take notes.

With no one left to oppose him after the disposal of the Majins and Dabura, Gomah's the king of the Demon Realm. And turns out Shin also has an out-of-nowhere sister too, Dr. Arinsu. Wonder why she has the God of Destruction gold collar? Might be relevant, might just be jewelry.

It's looking like I may have to finally dip my toes in the Xenoverse lore... we're getting suspiciously close to Towa territory.

However, Goku and his friends pose a threat to Gomah's power- because of course they do, it's Goku and friends- so we need a way to nerf them in the way that's not an evil wish. So, let's turn them into kids! GT BUT ON PURPOSE!

The Demon Realm has their own Dragon Balls created by a senile Namekian they picked up off the street, but they're guarded by these figures called the Tagamis- safe bet that they'll be fighting the Tagamis later.

We have a confirmed timeline placement! It's not long after the Buu Saga and Trunks is turning nine. Gohan is conveniently off studying... why the exclusion? We don't know yet.

And now for the two casual lore drop points that I proceeded to ramble about because my roommate had just walked in:

Saiyans get growth spurts at 15

I guess this was a casual excusing of Goten and Trunks still being short in Super and it sort of lines up with Goku in original DB. He grew slightly, but I guess he was a late bloomer because he was still rather petite at the King Piccolo fight where (not counting Minus) he was 16.

But, Gohan! He had a decent amount of height at 11 in the Cell Saga. Perhaps he got a little more of the Ox King genetics than Goten did.

Goku then proceeds to slander Vegeta's height and- "He's right behind me, isn't he?"

THE SECOND POTARA RETCON

Yep, it happened again. We went from "Potara fusion is permanent, we don't know what happened with Vegito" to "Potara fusion is permanent for Supreme Kais, but if it's two mortals, it's a hour" to, now, "it was Buu's stomach acid the whole time!"

So, instead of using the Dragon Balls to separate like in Super, Kibito Kai just had Buu eat them and spit them out.

I guess this helps confirm that Daima's running on its own track and won't lead into Super. Does this mean we have three separate canons now? I'm okay with this. At least this means my fanfics are safe.

Also, looking a bit pale there, Kibito.

Back to the plot:

Seems that all of the Namekians were originally from the Demon Realm! The Demon Gang can tell because of the pointy ears- I'm getting Owl House flashbacks.

Then what does that mean for Mr. Popo?

The old Namekian magnetizes all the Dragon Balls to the lookout- because of course he can- then reactivates them from their stone state- because of course he can.

Shenron's not dealing with any monkey's paws today and he's not going to guess like Ultimate Shenron did in GT- you're going to want to input all the settings you want for your turn people into kids wish. The adult gang are all first graders and the kids are now babies.

THE WISH HITS RIGHT AT THE END OF THE EPISODE

We'll have to deal with the fallout of this next episode. Hope someone fills Gohan in.

---

Feel free to send asks- I'll screenshot them if there's spoilers so I can put the question under a Keep Reading break if need be- or have a discussion in the replies.

Otherwise, stay tuned for more of my ramblings next Friday!

[kxkarot]

I have been slowly picking away at drafts I owe but goku muse has been a bit finicky lately and tumblr being slow is not at all helping me. Mostly playing xenoverse 2 to try and get the motivation to also finish my multimuse. Though I might put a lot more muses as request only because grabbing them is hard.

[gear-project]

So, going by Ishiwatari's interview, STRIVE is going get the Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 treatment where he'll be providing new content for the game for years to come.

It's hard for me to make a comparison to Xenoverse, since I've never actually played that game series.

In terms of DLC content, it's a big Maybe... but they are still fixing bugs that have occurred in the most recent update.

I suspect we will get more DLC in the future, but with that comes situations that may get adjusted as time goes on.

The more characters that get added, the more unique situations will occur between those characters... some of which may result in bugs and errors and glitches we've never even seen before in GG's history.

That's not to say they won't be fixed, but in some instances, some ideas could be born from those situations (like how Combos and Cancels were born from Street Fighter II because of a bug, or concepts like Jump Install or Impossible Dust Combos, or even Faultless Defense Cancels).

Ishiwatari DID establish a planned future for Guilty Gear, but he may not always be there to manage it, so take that thought in to consideration.

Likewise, I might not always be here to discuss these topics, we'll see though...

I have a personal beef with Vegeta from xenoverse 2 because he's such a genuinely mean teacher. He thinks that if he acts LITERALLY AS MEAN AS POSSIBLE that it'll like make us angry enough to be good but it's just discouraging

That's why I hang out with Captain Ginyu, the dude is literally the best, you could get a F rank and he'll be like clapping and cheering for your ass It's great.

That man might unironically be the best leader of a team we see in any anything when it comes to Dragon Ball. Like; he genuinely cares for his team, actually trains with them very often, is amicable on a personal level with them (to the extent that he gets like blood-lusted angry against Goku and Vegeta when they kill the Ginyus).

Cuz like for what it is worth most villains we see are usually just cronies or people who have a goal that they need to get Goku dead for, then, other than like (arguably) Gero, you have Ginyu, one of the only people who is exclusively fighting Goku for a get back (plus being ordered to but like that was secondary atp) no ego involved

Ok so today is soup day. There is soup to make.

Baby Surprise's head might be dry enough to glue her hair in and it might not. I'll have to bring her up and put her on the upright fan either way since this is where I glue.

Um...

I did say I want to break down boxes and get rid of them so I might.

That Guy bought the new Yakuza game last night and it's so. fucking. boring. Wow. It's just as bad at "walk 3 feet watch a cinema" as Xenoverse games. And those scenes are LONG. Might as well have been a show.

Looks nice, though. It's kind of weird how the characters have wrinkles and skin texture etc. but are still cartoony enough to ping as animated and not trigger uncanny valley.

Seller of that dirty, footless doll sent me a low offer. I'd bite if I didn't already have $100 sitting on my card needing paid. I think I have some random feet laying around, even. I don't want that doll, I just like fixing them up when they look that sad.

So I can warp relatively evenly, now.

Now I need to focus on not beating the weft so tightly... I'm making stiff fabric instead of woven yarn.

I know it's an extremely long shot, but if that Third Eye thing Gomah and Debesu mentioned ends up being connected to Tien I'll actually cry tears of joy that my boi is relevant to the story for the first time in ages. We're already primed for new Piccolo and Namekian lore so I'm hoping this show will revisit other elements of the lore.

That makes sense to me. I mean, why call it that if it doesn't have some sort of connection to Tien.

But I do have another theory.

Demigra wears a crown with a jewel that looks a lot like a third eye. What is it? Where'd he get it? Maybe this crown is the Third Eye that King Gomah is after.

I don't expect Demigra to be mentioned in Daima, but when you look at all the Demon Realm lore we've gotten pre-Daima, it all revolves around a conflict between Demigra loyalists and Mechikabura loyalists.

Xenoverse: Towa is doing time shenanigans, and Demigra uses her disruptions to history to escape and carry out his own scheme.

SDBH Manga: Towa restores Mechikabura to power, and Demigra is so opposed to this that he allies his faction with the Time Patrol to stop them.

SDBH Anime: Towa tries to impart Mechikabura's power into her own son, Fu, but Demigra interferes and then claims the power for himself while no one's looking.

Daima Episode 1: The Evil Third Eye was held by the past kings of the Demon Realm until it was lost during the reign of Abura, Dabura's father. I would assume his enemies stole it from him, and if Demigra exists in the Daima continuity, he'd certainly be a prime suspect.

Again, I doubt this is all leading to Demigra specifically, but rather the concept of a rival power base in the Demon Realm. The rival faction might have a different leader, but the premise would be the same. I think they stole the Evil Third Eye to check Abura's dynasty. Gomah wants it back in order to consolidate his power, and that's exactly what they want to prevent.

Of course, that wouldn't explain what it does or how it works. So it may very well end up having some ties with Tien after all.

Heart to Heart: One of the best Dragonknight fics I've read Yet Another Xenoverse: RWBY + JNPR reacting to the Xenogames with them as the main characters (Ruby is Shulk, Jaune is Rex, Blake is Nia, Qrow is Dundan, Ren is Noah, Penny is Kos-Mos, etc). Yet Another Multiverse: Same writer as above RWBY: A Grimm Fate: Beowolf becomes a human/fauns and learns how to balance both. Rider Time Zi-O: Roze from Remnant: Ruby getting sent to the world of Kamen Rider during Zi-O's run and things change for both stories Remnants of Desires: Guy from the real world get's sent to a Remnant where the story of OOO's is part of it and becomes Kamen Rider OOO (the third story is being worked on which covers Vol 7-8) Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: Grimm Eclipse!: The stories of RWBY and Ex-Aid collide. One of the funnier crossovers I've read, which is perusal with these writers. These are just some recommendations. Also, some of these stories have not been updated in a very long while. If you get the time, you might enjoy one of them.

Awesome! I'll have to see about getting to them. And thanks for putting the links in the ask, too!

Also, Heart to Heart sounds very familiar...

What do you hope to see in the upcoming dlc's in xenoverse 2? Me personally I want to see our CaC to come into conflict with Trunks and Chronoa.

That'd be cool! I'd like a good ol fashioned "torn between work and own ideas" sorta thing.

I hope we can get the ability to choose paths again like we did with the Tokipedia DLC. It was such a good step in the right direction.

I REALLY want Heroes content to be added (like characters and certain transformations), especially since Heroes is ending this year, but I think that might be a dead dream. Let alone if they adapted Hearts and Cumber they might not adjust their backstories to be in tune with Fu's less antagonistic xv2 portrayal. OTL a real shame because I REALLY want those two in a game.

Hell, since this is a saga focused on the future now, why not tap hard into Dragon Ball Online? Xv2 is already derived from it, and DBO takes place 200 or so years after the current year Xv2 takes place in. Just say fuck it and throw Cell X in or some shit. I just really wanna see more assets from Online used.
