#referencing to how much beerus would STARE at him

[littlepissbabee]

I loveee birushin but in the way that beerus absolutely worships shin and the ground he walks on and is super clingy but does NOT like making all that obvious. He will absolutely deny it if Whis tries to say anything but everyone knows. Everybody knows this bitch is SMITTEN wit his life link. Hes like....a cat bro. Deadass. Shin like, totally eats this shit up too. He loves it, he loves being loved like this its AWESOME. It makes him giggle when he picks up on beerus being too touchy, being subtly sweet with his words, staring an AWFUL lot.....Shins got a whole god of destruction wrapped around his finger and he doesnt know what to do about it.

I ended up breaking it up into two parts because it was getting out of hand xD

◄ Part One | Part Two ►

You look lonely. I can fix that.

Raditz would like to think he's seen his fair share of strange and new places, but the home of a God of Destruction was by far one of the most unique. It amused him to think his once weaker sibling was being trained here, making a name for himself and saiyan eminence in the realm of the Gods. His own path to achieving great avenues of power beyond anything they have ever seen before was much different, a forced open mind to possibilities helped him to better understand the grand scheme of the universe. If he wanted to make an impact in it and define his place outside the shadow of those once stronger than himself— his prince, his own brother, and even his nephew— then he would do what was necessary.

The death of Cell turned out to be a blessing in disguise for him, having retreated to the stars following Goku's sacrifice. Circumstances that allowed him to encounter the Time Patrol was just what he needed to distract from his self-placed irrelevance on Earth. And he didn't need to be trained by gods or angels to achieve his new power. Raditz did plan on returning to Earth one day, but saw more potential for himself remaining in the Time Patrol for a little while longer, and everything that followed his Earth's history was a mystery to him until now.

"So then, where is Lord Beerus?" Raditz turned to his fellow saiyans and towering Angel, more cautious than curious of the God of Destruction's whereabouts. He is met with a peculiar look from Whis.

"Who's that?" Goku asked in the middle of stretching, preparing for his training. Raditz squinted his eyes at him in response, then scoffed.

"Don't joke around, obviously you have been training here long enough to know who this place belongs to." Goku's stare with an arch brow further showing his confusion about his implication, standing up from his stretches with a thoughtful hum. Of course he knows who it belongs to but what did that have to do with the name Raditz gave? Goku turned to both Vegeta and Whis for clarification if he missed something, the larger saiyan looked at him more annoyed in suspicions of some trick being played on him.

"I don't know about any Lord Beerus, but this is Lady (Y/n)'s place. Our universe's God of Destruction." Vegeta adds to remedy the confusion before it got on his nerves. If he gathered correctly what the Time Patrol was about from Raditz's explanation on the way, then it shouldn't be a surprise a different thread in time would have a different God of Destruction.

"Yeah, you should know that. Didn't you meet some different timeline person or somethin' of our universe's God of Destruction?" Goku adds on in retaliation to his brother's glare at him. The thought of another God of Destruction of their universe fazed both the saiyans a little. Goku saw an opportunity to gauge if there would be a difference in power between the two, but Vegeta would truly hate to have to deal with another one.

So there was more catching up to do in his own timeline than he thought. Raditz discerned some differences were more clear than others such as himself even being alive to see this world from his initial arrival on Earth, but identities never changed in history and when they did it meant something was wrong. But not here? Now he was actually curious to see the Destroyer of this time.

"Then...where are they?" He asks, breaking away from his thoughts.

Whis then smiles to himself, lifting his staff and tilting it directly at Raditz making the saiyan look oddly at him. "Lady (Y/n), nice of you to finally join us. I hope your own little adventure was to your liking."

"Well enough," punctuated a yawn behind the tall saiyan, quickly reacting with surprise as he whipped around at the sound. Raditz felt like everything had slown to a crawl and his entire body cease, disconnected from his own will at the piercing stare that locked onto him. Exactly the cold, overbearing sensation that got to him when he first encounter Beerus. How frozen he became allowed him to at least take in the Hakaishin attire and accessories, how they matched the main timelines Destroyer with some personal alterations.

Your steps come to a stop before completely passing him by, a scrutinizing glare narrowing on the petrified saiyan. You then roll your eyes with a sigh. "Oh, joy..." You grumped, monotone, then turned towards the more familiar pair. "You found yet another saiyan and brought him here. Don't you have any other places to train? I won't be having any of your noise today."

"It will just be for a little while, I promise!" Goku casually addresses with a plead, hands pressed together with a humbled smile. "We just wanted to show off where we trained a bit for Raditz."

"-Leave me out of this, it was all your idea to bring him here!" Vegeta interjects in a snap, diverting the blame away from himself to keep off your radar. You let out an annoyed groan as Whis shook his head and Raditz managed to cautiously compose himself. Whis moves to approach you, standing next to Raditz with a gesturing hand.

"Like Goku was saying, this one here is called Raditz, My Lady. Goku's older brother if you can believe it, isn't that something?" Stage fright struck the large saiyan again with your eyes turning back onto him.

"Uh-...A pleasure to make your acquaintance, G-God of Destruction (Y/n)!" Raditz quickly folded his right arm against his chest and the other behind his back, dropping his torso in a formal bow, avoiding your gaze at all costs. Your eyes immediately discovered the erect tail behind him with a hint of intrigue, not only further proof of his race, but something you realized had been missing from those you were shamelessly already acquainted with. Vegeta and Goku carried evidence of once having tails of course but after looking upon saiyans with a new perspective, your eyes peruse the tail as one would look upon an adorable small creature. An itch to touch it, pet it, feel it curl in your grasp. Certainly, this one was rarer than his counterparts these days.

"...Goku's brother, huh? Well, that's a little interesting. Goku never mentioned having a brother." You immediately shrug off the spark of excitement to not display distraction from your overall annoyance.

Whis lets out a laugh behind his hand, tilting slightly towards Raditz. "You must possess the same capacity of fighting as he does. As well as his endearing faults. Well hopefully not all of them." His last words muttered to himself but not out of earshot, a lightly offended Goku turning his way.

"So another dirty fighting saiyan, then. How uncouth." Your brows lowered with a distasteful frown at the bowed mass of hair. "Not only uninvited, but he shows up here empty-handed expecting to be trained like these other imbeciles." You lean down closer to bed of spiky hair joined by your hand finding the shape of his skull in a sudden grip, malice laced in your lowered tone. "You coming to challenge me, too? To become a God of Destruction? I don't think I should stand for that, mortal." Raditz dared not move an inch under the pressure. No amount of fighting he has endured over the years would prepare him to defend himself against a Destroyer God.

Vegeta, ever diligent to pick up on your shifts in mood by now, breaks away from his standoffish pose with a huff and approaches you and Raditz, reaching into his armor. A colored wrapper appears in your eyeshot bidding your attention and succeeding, your glare softening up as you read the sweet and attractive name on the candy bar. You take it without a second thought and eagerly tear into it to explore the flavor it would have. "Don't waste your time with Raditz, My Lady. He's just another low-class bred saiyan like Kakarot. Not likely to be able to keep up with a god, let alone become one." The Prince follows up, Raditz visibly flinching at the statement and lifting his freed head at Vegeta.

"Hey, we've come a long way from that Vegeta. Even Raditz has gotten stronger since we've last seen him." Goku quickly steps in, taking his brother's side while you ate away at the delightful treat. "You can sense it, too. There's no need for that kind of talk anymore." The younger saiyan's hand on his shoulder encouraged Raditz to stand taller and relax, Vegeta turning his nose up with a grump and folding his arms against his chest. Goku looks up to his brother with delight at the discovery of power within him. They did come a long way from Cell and even Majin Buu. "Whatever you've been doin' with the Time Patrol has really been good to your power. We could have used that kind of fight on our side in the Tournament." Such affirmation gave Raditz such mixed feelings, he may never get used to them where he isn't standing as the dominant presence. Let alone from his little brother.

Time did well for their brotherly bond, but not enough to mend that which was branded into Raditz for years. He was quick to react with a faint glower and snatching his arm away before the comforting feeling could set in. But nothing more after Goku playfully nudged him.

"There is one way to test that and I am sure you will enjoy it. How about a spar to show off the extent of your capabilities, Raditz? Certainly, we are eager to see what this power is Goku has been going on about." Whis invites to take place, turning a knowing eye to you as you finished off the candy bar. "Is that alright with you, Lady (Y/n)?"

You return from your decadent plane of existence to all their eyes awaiting your response. Played again. But the earthly treats are always worth it when they're so delicious and readily available to eat. You recompose and softly huff. "...Just keep it down this time."

Fine then, Raditz thought, he is more than willing to prove his strength. The inability to harness and control God ki wouldn't matter then- in fact, it may give him the upper hand regardless of his opponent-

"Perhaps you would like to participate this time? It's been a while since you have joined in on training."

Oh no.

Whis had a point, but you had your reasons for avoiding training with the saiyans, mainly their childish back and forth. Yet you look up more thoughtfully, considering, then your eyes return to Raditz and his poorly withheld shock. The corner of your mouth stretched into a playfully wicked grin. Meeting this new saiyan strikes up a feeling of nostalgia for the first time you meet Goku and encountered Vegeta again. How convenient it has been for them that you chose not to destroy them, and how entertaining it has been for you that they have become just strong enough to not be pests. But they make up for that as often as you desire and it has become an acquired taste of yours. You don't expect yourself to be open to that for another, in fact it seemed unlikely, yet already there are some things about Raditz that inspired your imagination.

That tail, for starters. An indulgence you never knew you wanted, robbed from you between your two tailless lackeys. You wanted a reason to get your hands on it. And one cannot ignore how much larger his stature is compared to Goku and Vegeta, how his body armor stretched to cover his physique and cling to compliment the exposed muscles. It doesn't hurt to be a little curious about what that implies. He has a genuine fear of you, and that is always flattering.

But more importantly, you caught a whiff of the power inside of him and it is completely different from what Goku and Vegeta exhibit, Something that isn't just a lack of god ki, and even more unlike Gohan's power. Compared to them, it was indeed strong for a mortal to wield. Where was this when Grand Zeno orchestrated the Tournament of Power? You can't overlook the pattern of a saiyan's power and how it tends to surprise you with how it develops.

You are eager to see what exactly Raditz has to offer.

"Why not?" You shrugged, agreeing to participate for a bit. "It's like a right of passage for you saiyans at this point."

No, no, no! The larger saiyan internalized until it reflected in his face.

You discard the empty candy wrapper between The Prince's folded arms and stroll out from the group. "Come, let us battle."

"Don't worry, you're not expected to win anything. It's just an exhibition of what you can do." Whis reassured Raditz as Goku tried to get his brother moving after you.

"And between you and me, I wouldn't hold back if I were you." You added, that smirk once again creeping into your features.

Exhibition or not, Raditz wasn't stupid enough to go so far as to fight a God of Destruction. His own well-being was and remains his priority and he could feel it in his bones that that was far from your intent. Potential humiliation aside, there was no guarantee you wouldn't just finish him off to flex your own might. He's seen what Beerus could do and it has left a dreadful chill in his spine ever since. Couldn't he just fight Kakarot or even Vegeta?

Preferably Vegeta. The Prince's words replayed in his head and added to the other distasteful insults uttered his way as far back as he could remember, all seeming to loop over all at once over the pounding in his chest. The gall he had to speak of him like that now as if they haven't struggled against similar enemies for a time. He doesn't miss that from being away. Raditz isn't assured by the impression you or Whis was looking for, but he breaks out of his daze to speak for himself for a change.

"No." He stated firmly, swatting Goku away from him. "-Respectfully! N-No, Lady (Y/n) -Forgive me, but I have... nothing to prove to you."

"I know." You answered simply and promptly to Raditz's surprise, motioning for him to come over. "Give me your best shot anyways."
