video | post murderworld thoughts

So um... I've been thinking about this for a while. Ever since we left Harrub, actually...

[ He grimaced a bit, pausing for a couple of seconds. Glancing off to the side, before taking a breath, and addressing the camera again. ]

But um, after the whole Murderworld thing... it's kind of become clear that some of us aren't... handling things that well... [ He was thinking about Videl specifically, but the anon meme has also made it clear Videl wasn't the only one. ] I know we all took the oath for various reasons, and we probably all expected different things out of becoming a superhero. But um, some of us probably didn't expect this... so...

... With the whole "Legionnaire Legacies" thing coming around the corner, I think we should... [ Another pause, as he tries to figure out how to phrase this. ] ... um... I guess, share our lives with each other? To make sure we're prepared, in case... in case the news digs up stuff about us, and tries to drag us through the mud with it.

[ This is so weird and strange and against everything Gohan knows. He's usually the most secretive person in the world, but... he's kind of had to cope with having an open identity, so might as well go all in. ]

I guess um, I should go first? My name's Gohan, and... if you have any personal questions for me, I'll be happy to answer them...

So how'd that go? Was it everything you'd thought it would be?

You and the cops get along well? Sure they must've loved having you around and doing their job for them.

Actually, Videl worked with the cops around that time... and she hated me.

[deafleppard]

Wow, that's uh... Really awkward. Why'd she hate you?

[And why doesn't she have popcorn right now.]

... Because she was the one protecting Satan City at the time, and I was moving in on her territory, I guess. She worked really closely with the cops, and I was just... trying to stop crime and making sure no one recognized me.

It was really uncomfortable. And then she found out my identity in a few days and blackmailed me.

[ a pause. ]

... You know, it's really awkward saying that out loud, and realizing that this is how I met my girlfriend.

[deafleppard]

Oh good, I'm glad you said it first and not me.

[Because what the hell, man.]

But I mean, you guys still seem happy together, so what's a little blackmail to find that special someone.

Am I right?

[ He chuckled a bit, but it seemed hollow. ]

Yeah, I guess... I mean, it was awkward, sure, but... I don't regret meeting Videl, or being Saiyaman, or teaching her how to fly...

[ He slumped forward then, arms crossed on the table. His chin resting on his arms, as his demeanor shifted. ]

... Honestly, that's the most normal thing in my life. Being Saiyaman, meeting Videl...

[deafleppard]

Look at you being all in love with your girlfriend and stuff.

[She just sort of grins.]

There might just be hope for you, yet.

[ He chuckles at that. ]

... Videl keeps me grounded.

That's cute.

You two are cute.
