4th shopping trip [Voice] Backdated to August 13th
[Though she typically prefers video communication, Bulla deliberately selects voice. It's difficult to tell whether she sounds a little off because she's tired, depressed, or sick, but she's definitely not her usual upbeat and sociable self.]
Hi, everyone. I could use some suggestions for a distraction or three. Preferably something where you don't have to move around much.
[Truthfully, she's tired, depressed, and not feeling well, though it's due to an injury rather than illness. Her mother has vanished from Luceti, and she's recovering from the worst injury she's ever had in her life courtesy of a cultist.]
...and if you're suggesting reading, please suggest a specific book, because I've already read everything I have here in the house.

[She counts herself very fortunate that she hasn't had any run-ins with him since.]
...oh, that's just gross. The worst my brother ever did to mess up his relationships was bore his girlfriends with technology talk.
[Action]
It was. I'd rather have a guy talk my ear off about football or cars than wear stained clothing! Even if I don't care about football and I just want a car to drive places in, not go under the hood!
[Action]
[She shakes her head. Hopefully she won't run into Neji in the near future. Even if she can separate the real memories from the fake ones, it's still going to be very, very awkward.]
I'd be okay with a guy talking about cars to me...but I might know more about them than he would. My family's company makes mostly transportation technology like cars, scooters, and planes.

[Bulla knows he'd balk at being called a superhero, even if he does use his abilities to protect the world when threats arise.]

[Action] Ironically, Trunks IS in game now. Mwahaha.
[A more serious thought occurs to her.]
...hey Quinn? When I get better, want me to teach you some self-defense moves?
[Action] Hahahaha!
[Action]
[She'd suggest learning a weapon, but it's probably best to just start with how to throw a proper punch, a good kick, and how to use an opponent's force against them.]
I started training at first because I heard they even draft little kids sometimes.
[Action]
[Action]
[She'd have to talk to someone who Quinn wouldn't mind being around, though. Ino might be a good choice. Ino likes fashion, and she's a ninja.]
[Action]
[Action]
Must have been one super-awful English class if you're comparing it to a draft.

I can sort of understand why they teach that, but what I don't get is why they don't just have a computer version of the dissection, or fake rubber frogs. It would smell better and then they wouldn't have to use real frogs. Like, it's good to understand how bodies work and what animals have in common with human bodies, but...yuck.
[Action]
[Action]
[That was almost as bad as the dissection itself.]
[Action]
[Action]
[Because that sounds like it could be vile. Kitchen sinks were meant for dish suds and the like, after all.]
[Action]
[Action]
That sounds absolutely vile. Would it hurt your dad's feelings if you got him cooking lessons? Sounds like he could use them.
