fashionably_strong | 2nd shopping trip [Video, filtered from Vegeta]

Hey everyone! I've already got Mother's Day covered for celebrating with my mom, but things are a little trickier with my dad. I've been thinking about it and the thing that would make him the happiest would be if I spent the whole day training with him. He's a super strong martial artist and it's his favourite thing to do.

[Which will be a real labour of love. There's no way she'd willingly subject herself to anything close to what her father would consider a good amount of training on a regular basis.]

I've already been getting some training, but I've never gone all out and trained for a whole day straight.

[It's never appealed to her before. Not even remotely. Regular exercise is one thing, and dancing is fun. 8+ consecutive hours of intense training is something she'll need to work herself up to if she's going to be able to move the next day.]

So...I was hoping to find people that would be willing to spar with me. I want to get strong enough to protect little kids that get drafted and I want to make my dad's Father's Day really special. I'm pretty durable and I can fly, so you don't need to worry about me being too fragile to handle it.

[She smiles and waves.]

Thanks a bunch in advance. In return, I'll give makeovers and fashion advice to anyone who wants it.

Sure. I don't know how well I'll do as a teacher, but I'll try!

[And therein lies the difference between how she was at home and how she is here. She's willing to exert effort into something other than shopping or socializing.]

Really?! You're willing to give me a shot there?! [And the further they get from the original spar purpose...]

I don't see why not. I mean, my dad would be better at teaching how to do it, but if you're going to help me train, it's only fair to offer help in return, right?

Yeah, I guess, but I don't wanna take the makeovers away from the girls or anything!

Don't worry. I'll still give them makeovers if they want them. My mom does run a beauty salon, after all.

Whoa-! So you learned your stuff from your mom, huh?

My dad taught me how to use ki to fly, but my mom was the one who started me off making good fashion choices.

[He wonders, briefly, what things might have been like if he had a mom, growing up. It's not something he wonders very often, let alone dwells on, but... well, whatever]

That's cool. [Sincerely] So, when do you wanna do this?

Do late afternoons work for you? Maybe tomorrow or the next day?

[She should probably write all of her sparring appointments down somewhere, though she'll have to be careful of how she phrases it. Hanging out and makeovers are probably the safest bet to avoid her father suspecting anything.]

Sure, I can take some time off from Seventh Heaven if y'give me a time.

[Besides, he deserves a social life]

How about four o'clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow?

So that's 4 on Monday, huh... alright! That's the time we'll go with!

I'll see you then. Thanks again, Rin.

[He gives another bit of agreement! And then he'll be there at the appointed time to be ready for the chance of sparring and stuff]

[Bulla arrives just a couple of minutes before the appointed time. She's punctual, but not one to arrive early, either. Although with all of the training she's lining up, it's no wonder she values her downtime. The best part of training is getting herself cleaned up so that she looks and smells pretty again. A good meal to replenish some of her energy and relaxing activities like doing her nails also help in between.]

[Rin, for his part, is perpetually late. So while I said "appointed time" it's really more like "a minute or two late but who cares" And he shows up, tail wagging and a sword in its scabbard resting on his shoulder. He's looking around for the girl he was talking to the other day. And while there are some people in here, he doesn't immediately connect the glamorous looking girl over there with being Bulla based on the video. ...And then he looks again. Wait, she is?]

[Bulla waves when she spots Rin.]

Hey! Thanks for meeting with me, Rin.

[Oh--- wow. His tail droops a bit, but- no, he can do this!]

Yeah, no problem!

So, how should we start?

[Fortunately, she at least had the sense to wear clothing that's appropriate for exercising, though it's very colour coordinated and about as fashionable as fitness clothing gets.]

W-well, that's up to you. How would work best for you? [And they should probably get into the rooms, or something.]

Hmm....how about whatever you usually do to warm up for a training session?

[One would think she'd know more about regular training, but she doesn't really pay attention to her father and brother's training routines. She's cheered them on at every tournament they've competed in that she's been alive to make an appearance for, though.]
