Russé PL: 30,000
Russé decided to leave the house and went to one of the known populated places Central City in trying to be more open in making new friends. Indeed Tysco and Morticia will always be among the closest to him, it doesn't hurt to expand his circle of friendship with other people and it will be a helpful asset if he is going to be a pride trooper. There was a fellow saiyan he grew attached to rather quickly a month ago and the man owns a bar, his easy-going personality is what lead to Russé becoming a regular costumer every weekend, and it never gets boring due to the unpredictability of drunk people. The half-sayain also wanted to ask him something personality and he figured it was best to talk to him about it now than to forget about it later. Upon depending on the planets ground surface, the blue haired primate pushed open the entrance and sat upon his favorite stool on the counter, he found it odd nobody sits there whenever he shows up, perhaps people do and he wasn't around for it, there wasn't a point to think too much about it when the seat allows him to have a conversation with Dion without interruption. "Yo Dion! Hand me a bottle of sake will ya" smiling then handing the young adult the appropriate amount of Zeni, he debated if he should wait until after he got his drink to bring up the topic in question, or say something now. "Can I ask you something? I've noticed you've been flirting with Kuma every time you saw her, are you two a thing or what? You sly dog he somehow resisted the urge to chuckle from his amusement, but his smile growing larger left the same message regardless. There was nothing to sugarcoat his teasing when Dion's action lacked any subtlety, he wondered if this man had too many booze to realize what he's saying or he wasn't the mild mannered bartender like he thought he was. |

"First time I've ever served royalty before...nice to meet you, Queen Nashua."
Well, there had been many a change since the last time Russe or anyone's actually paid a visit to Dion at one of his own personal bars. In the time in which he had no visits planned or visitors at all that he knew on a more personal level, Dion had begun to try and build up his bar chain a little bit. He had gotten the courage and drive needed to start building on his business empire in drink when a certain Majin named Patrona recently had begun to work under him as a waitress, and after a little guidance offered by her (she owned her own establishment in the form of a bakery not too far from the cities his bars have been known to frequent) Dion finally went and bought out two or three bar locations that he had taken a liking to and slammed his (trademarked mind you) brand name onto it- Diono's! Not to be confused with DiGiorno's or anything of the like, Dionos's was to be his new bar and restaurant fusion chain as a means to keep him afloat in terms of money as well as to be able to fund any other escapades he might have in the future. Dion had made it both a bar and restaurant kinda gig as he wanted to appeal to a larger audience, figured it would be the smarter thing long term to do. As for what he might spend the money he'd gain from this steady influx of currency, the bartender was thinking of putting a sort of team together or something, like a, how would you put it- like one of those superhero teams you see in the Earth movies all the time. But that was a budding idea for way into the future, for now, Dion was quite satisfied with nurturing his growing business.
Today he had chosen to work in the location he had bought out in Central City. No real specific reason, just that Central City seemed to have a nice balance of everything and today he was craving some sort of balance. Though, as he would eventually see as events came to play out, today would be anything but just another balanced day. An hour or so before Russe's arrival, Dion had been setting up for the evening- placing out napkins, talking with the kitchen staff, checking his wide range of drink selections to make sure he wouldn't run out of anything, etc etc. Eventually, they did open their doors, and people began to flow in at a steady pace. Soon it had been a full house, both the main dining area and the bar being filled out. The young Saiyan bartender was quite happy with the turnout, though he wasn't exactly surprised- he had spent time building his reputation for a reason, and so it seemed only natural people would associate his name with dining and drink of the finest quality, and thus want to try it out for themselves.
As he began to talk the evening away with several patrons at the bar, sharing a few laughs and even taking a shot or two with his clientele (Saiyan metabolism burnt through Earthling alcoholic drinks quite quickly, thus it didn't leave him tipsy at all after just one or two), Dion had settled himself in for an entire night of bartending. However, he was a little surprised to once more sense a familiar power signature standing outside of his door, and the young pureblooded Saiyan found himself once more greeting his hybrid Saiyan friend Russe as he approached the bar as soon as an open seat made way for him, saying, "Ah, good to see ya once again Russe. I guess I do my job well then, eh-? I mean, you do seem to like frequenting my bars often. Or maybe you're just here for a quick history lesson or two-? I'm only teasing ya, I'll grab you that sake real quick alrighty-?"
Once Dion had ducked under the counter to grab him a fresh and cold bottle of sake, he had made an audibly loud scoff at Russes teasing of his relationship with Kuma, quickly standing back up with sake in hand and playfully hitting him on the head with it, saying, "It's flirting you goof, nothing more- we're just friends right now, and I'd like to keep it that way without you pointing it out. I only do it because I know she finds it quaint. Anyways, are ya here just to tease me or-"
Suddenly, Dions head snapped toward the entrance of Diono's, a dumbfounded look on his face as he felt one of the strongest power signatures he's ever come to lay his senses upon. I mean, it literally dwarfed both Dions and Russes currently as it was, and even he was at a point in his fighting career in which he'd be proud to say that he was stronger than the average batch of fighter. It was insane. But, then again, it felt oddly familiar- as if he had felt the same kinda vibe or energy from someone else he knew...
Tapping Russes shoulder and gesturing toward the door, Dion asked, "Hey- do you sense that? That crazy high power level just outside? I mean, it doesn't feel overly sinister or anything, but it is slightly unnerving to feel such a presence and not know the face in front of it.."
Dion waited, in strained silence after addressing his concerns with Russe, allowing his chin to rest on the backs of his hands as he leaned his elbows on the counter, wondering who exactly was outside his door.

Nashua needed a drink. And not just something flat and bubbly like soda, she wanted something more... 'Adult'. Liquor was something that she had done a pretty decent job at avoiding, for the most part, mostly out of a want of not wanting to do something less than responsible while under the influence, but all of the things going on lately, but on Earth and on Arcose, something a bit stronger to kill some brain cells for a bit sounded amazing. The Saiyan wandered the streets of Central City, keeping both an ear and an eye out for any sign of a decent place to grab a bite and a drink. Wandering around the streets in full battle armor and a cape seemed... Unwise, so Nashua elected to put on some 'Earthling' clothes as she walked through the town. A plain, white t-shirt and a purple hoodie, couples with some jeans and boots. They felt both much looser yet far more restrictive than the armor she'd grown used to.
Either way, she was noticing significantly less eyes on her as she walked down the sidewalk, so that was probably a good thing. A few people did eye her tail, though, towards which she gently swished it back and forth and gave them a small smile. She supposed a tail would still be something out of the ordinary to most Earthlings, but that wasn't something she was willing to tuck away - it was a part of her body, after all. Why hide it? Either way, she could hear her own stomach start to growl with hunger as she rounded another corner without spotting a place that caught her eyes. And she was feeling a serious thirst at the bottom of her throat, to top it all off. That was when a place just a bit down the road finally managed to get her attention. "Diono's", the sign out front read. Like dinos? Did they serve dinosaur cuisine? Nashua had to say she was curious as she stopped outside and wondered whether or not she should enter.
After a couple seconds of meandering, the hunger in her stomach won the battle of wills, and she stepped inside the restaurant. It looked pretty nice, she supposed. It slightly reminded her of a couple places on Vegeta as she took a seat at the bar, spinning slightly in the stool as her rear end shifted to find a comfortable spot to settle in. "Hi, can I see a menu, please?" she chipperly asked the bartender, who looked like he must have been a Saiyan as well, if that hair was any indication. Her hands rested on her knees as she awaited his reply.

Russé's carefree attitude didn't waver one bit, shaking his head "I'm just here to pay a buddy a visit, grabbing a drink and here all kinds of crazy drunken stories from everyone one around here" the half saiyan enjoyed listening to people ramble silly things or doing strange activities like hopping on a table and dancing, some stories sound wicked awesome to hear, some things were unusual to downright creepy at times. Russé usually would get a drink or two to prevent ending up like everyone else but the thought of his mind being clouded by a beverage still lingers to this day. What kind of person he would turn out to be under the influence of alcohol? For now those thoughts are pushed in the back of his mind, there is still the matter of Dions flirting with Kuma and he isn't gonna be off the hook from this. The bartender returned with his sake and bopped him on the head playfully, like would friends normally do. Dion insists him and Kuma are just friend prompting Russé to shrug her shoulders "Sure, I'll believe it, if you keep that up, her and I are gonna assume you have a crush on her" smirking, he can deny it all he wants but love will always find a way. Soon an enormous amount of energy has gotten the attention of both Russé and the bartender, like Dion his head is snapped towards the entrance, its so grand it managed to sweep away any trance of amusement under the rug, and yet the hybrid couldn't detect any malicious aura from this incoming customer. "Yeah, I've never felt anything like this before, be on your guard, they could be trouble.." replying then shutting his mouth in silence anticipating this customer's arrival. An attractive woman who looks to be around his age entered the complex causing the half saiyan's eyebrow to furrow in confusion and disbelief, he couldn't fathom how can anyone exist be THIS powerful? What kind of training she's done to accomplish such a feat? If he didn't speak within her sudden presence, he sure as hell wouldn't be able to say anything now that she is heading for a stood on his direction. What could he say to her without looking like a stuttering train wreck? Not wanting to be caught staring at the woman, he picked up a menu pretending to search for a meal to order, though he didn't have to fake it when he hasn't eaten a lot of food today. His eye remained glued on the menu listening to her request a meal, perhaps drinking some sake will cast away this uncertainty and boost up his confidence again. Russé sat down the menu and opened his bottle to guzzle down half of his beverage, he then picked up his menu again to search for something to eat. "Your energy level is off the charts, much higher than anyone I've encountered so far" referring to Nashua while laying his eyes on a hamburger meal. [UT]Energy Sense activated

'Huh, kinda reminds me of Kuma, honestly,' Dion thought to himself as the door finally opened after a period of what seemed like skepticism finally passed, revealing to Russe and he a Saiyan- and female as well. The Saiyan male hasn't really seen a lot of female Saiyans overall during his time on Earth, however, it seemed as though there was an influx of them as he had met already three (counting this one) just recently. His eyes cast over her a calculative gaze, his bartenders intuition beginning to go straight to work as he tried to deduce just what made her tick. Or at least, if she was truly someone to be reckoned with like how he and Russe originally had thought. Honestly, his gut feeling told him that she didn't at all seem that bad, and so his body language soon shifted from being tense and on edge to more relaxed and lighthearted, gesturing to her a seat that was open just in front of him. While she didn't seem like trouble, might as well keep an eye on her himself just to be safe. Dion was just about to introduce himself and attempt to set the stage just as Russe burst in first- forcing the bartender to stifle a fit of laughter at how brazen and blunt the hybrid Saiyan was in addressing the elephant in the room. That being this woman's abnormal strength of course. He meant no harm toward Russe, but goodness, he couldn't have been more to the point now couldn't he?
After he quickly regained his bearings, Dion allowed himself a bit of a chuckle and a shake of the head as he turned to address Russe first, saying, "Hey now, let's not interrogate the gal so soon- we did just meet the lovely lady afterall. Besides, she doesn't seem like the type to cause any trouble, now does she?" Yes, of course, he really did want to know how in the HFIL this random Saiyan girl was able to outclass even his now sizable power level, perhaps even more than Russe did, but it seemed rude and out of pace to try and ask her about it so outright. Again, nothing against his hybrid friend, but there was a time and a place for all things, and this was an example of not being at the right place nor springing such a question at the right time.
Once he had dealt with Russe's inquisitive nature, Dion turned back toward, unbeknownst to him, the current and reigning Queen of Arcose, saying in a friendly and welcoming tone, "Anyways, I do apologize for my good friend Russe's overzealous nature. He truly doesn't mean any harm, just a bit curious is all. Perhaps a strange way of saying you're simply an engrossing person from the get-go-?"
Pulling out a glass from down below, and after beginning to spin it in his hand on his pointer finger, using his opposite hand to pass her a menu, Dion flashed Nashua a quick grin as he said, "The name's Dion, a pleasure to meetcha, wonderful to see a pretty face like yours make their way into my own humble establishment. Take your time, no rush at all, or at least I assume you've got some time on your hands-?"

The bar Nashua had walked into felt suspiciously quiet, and she found herself glancing around with furrowed brows. Was it just her, or were there a lot of eyes on her? She supposed the tail sticking out her rear end might have attracted some attention, but it didn't seem like that was quite what the focus was on. Oh, well. Maybe it was just her imagination. However, just as the words towards the bartender had left her mouth, a patron with an interesting hair color spoke up right next to her, and got right to what she assumed the meat of the issue was. "Oh, right," she replied after a brief pause, "I forgot you Earthlings tend to be able to sense energy. Here, let me just..." It took only a moment for Nashua's power level to suddenly drop dramatically - all the way down until it was parallel with your average Earthling's: a meager five power level.
"There, is that less distracting?" she asked with a smile. Still, the bartender was quick to jump in and chastise his other customer for his potentially somewhat invasive question, which prompted a giggle from Nashua. She could quite clearly tell that these two must have been old friends, with how they bantered. So the blue haired man's name was Russe, and the bartender's name was Dion? She supposed that must have been where the restaurant got its name, huh? "Well, I think the pleasure is mine for bumping into such a hospitable place," she replied to his comment with a smile. The Saiyan then took her time to peruse the menu in her hands, her head tilting slightly as she read over some of the different options, until she settled on one that sounded pretty good.
"I think I'll have the triple deluxe bacon cheeseburger," she stated as she handed the menu back to Dion. "And, and a pint of... Well, whatever you think goes well with that." She didn't know her alcohol very well, if that wasn't abundantly clear. But from what she'd seen and heard of it, a bit of the demon drink sounded like something she could use right about then. Nashua settled into her seat a git more comfortably, her tail swishing back and forth a bit behind her as she glanced over at Russe. "Don't worry, by the way," she added, giving him a smile. "I'm quite good at moderating my strength, if I say so myself, so you don't have to worry about me accidentally crunching the bar counter or anything. If anything, I'm pretty weak when I'm like this compared to what I can do as a Super Saiyan. ...You guys know what those are, right?"

He sat his menu down to give that playboy bartender an eye roll over being chastised from the bartender about his "rude" behavior towards the new customer. The half saiyan KNEW there was a bigger reason behind it and Dion can't pretend he wasn't using him as a scapegoat to flirt with another woman. "Oh brother, you're only saying all of that stuff because she's pretty" raising an eyebrow and teasing him for his amusement, granted he figured Dion needed to show his costumers the charismatic side of him if he's running a business.
Thankfully this woman doesn't appear to be offended by his straight-to-the-point approach, she lowered her energy levels to a scale comparable to an average earthling, a trick he recognized from people he encountered a while ago. "Much better, so you can suppress your energy too eh? Someone by the name of Ramen showed me how to do that long ago" good thing she reminded him of such an ability, he could imagine how the other costumers felt about sensing his power, and thus his moderately strong energy is reduced to matching with other civilians in the bar eating establishment
Their new acquaintance ordered her food from the menu, and Russe took it as his cue to order something as well, like hell he is gonna sit here starving from someone else eating. "And I'll order four double-stacked cheeseburgers and a side of steak fries and a bottle of beer" putting a request for Dion and placing down more money in the jar. He's already had his fill of sake but another beverage couldn't hurt. The woman next to him began a conversation with Russe, assuring him she wouldn't destroy the counter with her strength, stating she is weak like this compared to herself going Super Saiyan.
Wait...
What did she say!?
Russé snapped his head towards her, showing her eyes of surprise and confusion. Not only did he discover she is a saiyan by catching a glimpse of her tail but she can turn into a super saiyan!? No..No way that's possible, its just a myth right? "Huh!? You can become a super saiyan?" his voice raised slightly with excitement.
"I've heard of the folk tales about the form but I've never seen the form in person before, Dion and I were talking about it recently and I've been searching for other saiyans to figure out how can we get the form, so far I ran into some saiyans called Scallio and Okra but they didn't know how to transform either" explaining his quest to her. He didn't know why he told her what he was up to, something about the way she carries herself and how powerful she is, kinda reminds him of Kuma. Unlike the arcade-destroying troublemaker, this woman's attitude did not trigger any skepticism about her, it's almost like he can talk to her about anything like a friend would do.
"Hold on.." Russé placed a hand on his chin, observing this woman's face for a bit and noticing her brown hair."Kuma mentioned she was related to a half saiyan and Dion here told me she is related to someone called Nashua, the Queen of Arcose, and I should find her.." furrowing his eyes before they lose their sharpness again. "Are you..Nashua?"putting two and two together, that would explain why this woman is really powerful, she musted gained years of battle experience to be worthy of a throne.

"Earthling? Hold on a minute miss, I think ya got my race confused there," Dion said in a matter-of-fact tone as he let his own tail slowly rise up in a dramatic fashion, for a more comedic effect, from below the bar counter. After allowing enough time to get a good look at it, Dion sneaked it back under, saying, "I'm a Saiyan just as much as you are, uh, hm, I don't believe I caught your name, so if you don't mind me asking for it, may I-? I like to know at least some of the pretty faces I get to serve yknow-?" Continuing on, he took silent note of the fact that she was able to manipulate her power level at will- sometime that he had never seen before in action, but from Russes own reaction, he has seemingly seen the trick before. Tucking that away as an inquiry for later, Dion then said, "I appreciate the compliments m'dear-! Truly flattering coming from someone like you, always nice to hear that I'm doing something right you know? Since Saiyans aren't exactly known for their business-person skills as much as they are known for their martial arts prowess. That order of yours sounds great, good choice, I like the burgers here myself- nice little cooldown meal for after I get done with a hard training session, so I'm sure you'll like it-!" As for the choice of drink, Dion looked at her intently for a couple moments before snapping his fingers and saying, "Aha, I think I know what you'd like- a classic apple cider sound alright to you?"
Quickly writing down her order in a notepad, Dion then looked back over to Russe to copy down his order as well- saying to him, "Honest, Russe, I don't say these things to every pretty girl I see. I'm just simply a man with manners is all-! Don't you trust lil' ol me? I would've thought you'd have, well, thought more of me than just a simple flirt." Once done with speedily taking down his order as well, he ripped off the page he had written them on and passed it over to a waiter not too far off from the bar counter, just in time to hear Nashua mention a comparison of some sorts between her and when she's in the Super Saiyan State.
Oh my.
A Super Saiyan? In his bar?
Dion quickly returned his attention back toward Nashua, looking the girl up and down as he listened to Russe rattle off in an ecstatic tone. Once the half and half buddy of his cooled down a bit, the interested Saiyan male leaned forward toward her, chin placed on the backs of his hands as his elbows leaned against the counter for support as he asked in an inquisitive tone, "Honestly, not too surprised that you are one. You seem to fill out all the necessary prerequisites, yeah? Incredible base power, pure of heart, and, well, you're a Saiyan on top of all that of course. Huh. Now that I think of it, you would look good in blonde, so I suppose that' s another reason why it seems not too out of the blue."
"But yeah, if I am to be a bit more serious, Russe and I have discussed the tale of the Golden Warrior once or twice, although it seems that my friend here has taken the search a bit more seriously than I have. I, while interested, am unsure of where to start, so it would be a bit of a godsend if you were to so kindly tell us a bit about the form itself. If it isn't opening up past wounds though- I've heard at least the strong factor of emotional strain that is required in order to achieve such a state, so I assume you went through Hell to get such power, right?"
Once Russe had mentioned Kuma, his eyes glanced back in his direction, and as he began to connect the dots, so did Dion- and a large smile came upon him as he did.
"So, you're Kuma's cousin, Queen Nashua of Arcose. I knew there was a reason why you seemed so familiar. She's had quite a bit to say aboutcha yknow."

Nashua smiled and glanced down as the blue haired man teased that the bartender was only being so kind because he thought she was attractive. Nashua had certainly started getting more comments about that kind of thing since her mother and Ramen had helped with that makeover, so maybe those two had known what they were doing, after all. Although, she did kind of miss being able to use her ponytail like a weapon. That had been fun. Oh, and the bartender was actually a Saiyan himself - her mistake. Then Ramen's name came up in their conversation, which prompted Nashua's attention. "Oh, you know Ramen?" she asked in slight surprise. "She's actually my best friend! We've known each other for a long time, now." It was neat to see her name getting around among Earthlings. She truly was the best of them, after all: both in strength and in character.
The encounter continued quite leisurely, until Nashua offhandedly mentioned that she was a Super Saiyan. That sure got their attention in a way she hadn't been expecting. While Russe's reaction was one of more genuine surprise, the bartender didn't seem quite as flabbergasted, instead commenting that she both seemed like she would be one, and that she'd 'look good in blonde'. "I don't think I've ever actually looked myself in the mirror while Super Saiyan," she idly commented, now a bit curious about how she did look. She liked her current hair, of course, but did it look better all bright like that? She'd only really seen the parts that hung over her chest and back. While Nashua had been fussing over her Super Saiyan hair, though, her attention perked back towards the conversation at hand when the pair mentioned her identity.
"You guys know Kuma, too?" she asked with furrowed eyebrows. Sometimes, despite the fact that there were trillions of people in the galaxy, it felt like there were maybe only a hundred or so that got around. "Yeah, she's my cousin on my dad's side. I haven't seen her around, lately, though. Oh, and, yes, I'm technically the Queen of Arcose, but, uh," she glanced around to make sure no one was listening, then leaned in and hushed her tone of voice. "I'm kind of trying to keep a low profile around here so I don't get harassed, you know? This Arcosian who's not too happy with me just up and attacked me while I was sitting in the park the other day. Of course, I'm strong enough to defend myself, but I'd rather not have to, if you get what I mean." She hoped the two boys were friendly and considerate enough to respect her want for privacy.

Russé PL: 45,000 (suppressed to 1337)
Russé shook his head, he can already smell the odor of desperation from Dion's bullshit, furthering his teasing on the bartender, that shit-eating grin on Russé's face never waved one bit "Pfft Trust you? About as far as I can throw you, don't worry buddy, love will be kind enough to hook you up with someone" there was a silver lining from his snark, he isn't against the idea of Dion getting himself a girlfriend. Nashua's revelation about Ramen pulled the hybrid in to continue their interaction, sparking a combination of surprise and intrigued about how that friendship came to be, "Oh Really? You learn something new every day" first he discovered Kuma is her cousin and now he found out the redhead woman is her best friend, funny how life works out. "I don't know Ramen very well but she seems to be a nice lady, I ran into her talking with this scary, squid-looking guy out in West City" the hybrid placed his thumb and index finger on the chin, trying to recall his name. "Now what was his name again..Crackers?...Cactus?...Kraktus? He's really strong, I don't know much about him either aside from his name, he mentioned something about a world trade fleet" shrugging shoulders. Dion being a playboy flirt about Nashua looking good with blond hair and the latter told them she never saw herself in a mirror in super saiyan form, a slightly surprised young blue-haired man, blinked his eyes twice. "Seriously? You never noticed what you look like as a super saiyan? Not even once at home?" He would ask about her carrying around a mirror to check herself out but his quarry would be moot. "Fair enough, I never saw myself as a great ape before, the only thing I noticed is I'm taller than everyone in that form, it hurts like hell transforming into that beast despite me gaining control over it, do you ever experience pain turning into a super saiyan every time?" wondering if such a thing happened for anyone else whenever they transform. Nashua confirmed her identity and about Kuma being her cousin from her father's side, the mere mentioning of that woman's name brings back memories. "Yeah, Kuma was certainly a handful, Dion and I first met her at a local arcade in Central City, she was playing Serpent Master and destroyed the ENTIRE back wall of the building from rage quitting, it was crazy" grinning about the incident, admittedly he was pissed off that day because of what she did but he found it amusing looking back. "Dion went to cover the damages before we got in trouble with the police, and we all became good pals after that, the funny thing about that whole thing, this isn't the first incident I experienced at the arcade" recalling a similar case happened with someone else. Nashua leaned in and told them the real reason why she's in a place like this and confirming her identity to be true. Getting the message to do the same, the hybrid leaned in for a private talk as well. "So that's why you came here dressing so casual, mind if I call you just Nashua then?" hushing his tone of voice to match Nashua's volume, he isn't sure if she is the kind of queen to demand formalities, hopefully, she doesn't mind if she is keeping a low profile. The woman explained an arcosian attacked her at the park and she wishing to not be harassed by, anyone, though she has the strength to fight, she would rather avoid conflict if necessary instead of being forced to defend herself. "I get ya, no reason to get into pointless conflict if you can help it, this arcosian sounds like they have a bone to pick with you, do you know why they attacked you?" puzzled about their actions. |

Honestly, it was not surprising at all when Nashua requested that her identity be kept a secret. He understood it completely- while it wasn't entirely the same, Dion had his fair share of bouts with the press, what with his bar and pub chain gaining rapid popularity for its high quality brews and food to boot, and it was incredibly draining at times to have to deal with the constant questionings and picture-takings. If the bartender believed the paparazzi for him to be pretty bad, he wondered exactly how engulfing of a flame Nashua's own crowd was. She just so happened to be Queen of an entire planet! Not only that, but a planet of which she had taken control of personally. That part of the story he remembered clearly from Kuma. Dion assumed not everyone was entirely, well, open, to having their own homeworld taken over by someone of the Saiyan race, considering again that it was Arcose that she had taken control over. He wondered how the Arcosians off-world were looking at it. He also wondered if Aurora held any hard feelings toward such a sort of militaristic taking over of her entire planet. Or at least he assumed she was of Arcose descent. It was entirely possible she was from a different planet entirely, but, sometimes assumptions were easier than trying to find the absolute truth.
So, yes, to reestablish, Dion was completely fine with keeping Nashua's royal status a secret with himself, raising both hands upward in a casual manner as he said, "No problem, really- I assume it isn't just the press that're after a couple interviews that you're worried about, nor just some rando Arcosian or two trying to start something physical in public, you did take control of an entire planet whose race is already on shaky terms with our own proud people, so I completely get it. A helluva lot more messy too, in more than one way, I assume, if you were to let your presence known. I don't really gain anything from ratting you out anyways, in fact, I think I'd be worse for wear if I were to snitch on ya honestly, what with your Super Saiyan power up your sleeves." The fact that she hadn't seen Kuma for a bit though did slightly disappoint him. Dion was planning on meeting her again somehow, but, he had no way of finding where she was, so he was slightly banking on the hope that Nashua knew something of her location. Albeit a bit deflated once she proved otherwise, Dion still managed to shrug it off and remain within a steady state of mind.
Ignoring that whole, Ramen, business- if that was an actual person, he was very interested as to how they got THAT name, Dions interest in Russes words perked as he mentioned Kraktus. Turning his eyes over to him for a second, he said in a slightly surprised tone, "You know Kraktus of all people? He's, not exactly an angel when it comes to what he's done, Russe, I hope you know that. Strong yet definitely of villainous intent, the opposite of our company here I guess you could say." Turning back to said company, Dion then asked in a more inquisitive tone, "I mean, I'd like to assume, but, do you know Kraktus by any chance? He seems, well-known, from what I gathered from our first meeting. Wasn't anything nefarious, don't get me wrong- just, wrong place, wrong time, for me I suppose. He was strangely polite for someone who's supposedly quite the bad guy."
While waiting on the next topic of conversation, or for one of his questions to be answered, Dion motioned for one of the waiters to come on over- speaking with him about the twos' orders for a couple moments before sending him back off toward the kitchen. He then turned back toward the two and waited, his face a content expression as he changed glances between Nashua and Russe.

These two sure seemed like a pair of good pals, Nashua thought with a smile as she watched the two go back and forth. She'd never seen a Saiyan with blue hair like Russe's before - though it'd probably be rude to ask, she assumed that the man must use some especially strong hair dye to keep up that color. She furrowed her brows when Russe brought up who he'd seen Ramen meeting with, though. "Ramen was meeting with Kraktus?" she asked. "I hope things did not become too tense or violent. I've fought with Kraktus more than once, and he can be quite a fierce opponent." The last time she'd fought with him was back on Arcose during the battle to stop Aizu from destroying it, as far as she could remember. He'd been smart enough to flee when he realized he was outmatched by Nashua and Kayen, though. Something told Nashua it wouldn't be the last time they'd ever come to blows, either.
And she nodded as well to Dion, though frowned slightly when he mentioned the squid seemed like a polite man. "I wouldn't let his politeness fool you," she added, "He's probably killed more people than you've met. He's a very dangerous man, so I'd stay away from him whenever possible." Nashua paused for a moment, and then her face softened back into a smile. "Although, you won't need to worry about that as long as I'm around. Earth has a lot of my closest friends on it, so I'll be sure to show up to defend it whenever it needs help. You two can sleep easily." She hadn't meant to get so serious there, Nashua thought to herself - besides, these two seemed rather nice, and simple. Not the kind of people who'd get too involved with Super Saiyans or politics. It was a refreshing change of pace.
That was enough about Kraktus, anyway. Nashua would deal with him some other time. "So, tell me about yourselves," she asked, leaning forward onto the counter, her elbows pressing against the wood as the palms of her hands propped her head up against her cheeks, with her tail idly swishing back and forth behind her. "This seems like a nice place, is it family owned? I don't think I've seen any around before, but I guess I don't usually pay attention to the names of restaurants or bars I don't go into." She then glanced over at the blue haired one, and asked, "And what about you, do you work here? You guys seem like good friends, at least - how'd you meet?" She hoped she didn't seem like she was prying, too much, but she did genuinely enjoy sitting back and hearing people talk about themselves from time to time.

PL: 30,000 (Energy Supression PL: 1337)
Both his friend and the queen spoke of Kraktus's true colors, turns out he is a villainous fellow who has killed a lot of people, Dion initially assumed he was a polite fellow but it was far from the truth, and he knew it. Nashua also warned to stay away from him, claimed she fought him more than once and is said to be a fierce opponent, Kratus packing all of that power solidifies her claims, someday he will find him and challenge him to a duel. "Man..so squid-man turned out to be a bad guy? I had a hunch he was ominous but I didn't account on him being a murderer..well actually I could see it but I didn't want to judge a book by its cover yanno?" guess his dangerous appearance isn't just for show. His eyes looked at Nashua who is expressing worry her friend came into contact with Kraktus and rightfully so "no worries, it wasn't anything violent at all" reassuring her. If things escalated back then he wouldn't be alive to share his story. There is some concern over Ramen's friendly chatter with Kraktus, if he is a bad guy and Ramen didn't appear to emit hostility during their conversation, then it could be a red flag. Either something happened between them to warrant a civil discussion or he suspects she is also a villain, for Nashua's sake he will keep this baseless accusation for himself. The royal hybrid reassure the both of them, she has close friends to guard the earth and the queen herself will be around to protect it, allowing them to rest easy. "Heh, good to know you're on our side, the bad guys will be running scared when you or your friends show up to stop them" sprouting a side smile, he doubted anyone would pose a threat to earth if heroes had her kind of power. The queen wanted to know the origin of the friendship between himself and Dion, and wanted to know more about them in general. She asked Russé if he works her, prompting him to shake his head. "Nah I don't work here, I met Dion at the arcade in Central City I was telling you about. After he bailed me out of trouble with the cops I felt I owe him a huge debt for helping me so I became a regular customer here, In a way, I'm repaying back the money as long as I keep ordering meals. We also found out we had some things in common so we became fast friends from that." it's the least he can do for him, plus the food and alcohol are mouth-watering marvelous, it's a win-win. Russé then began to talk about himself. "I'm an easy-going person who is pretty outgoing at times, I enjoy watching TV, especially shows about superheroes and I love playing video games. I indulge in comic books and reading books in general, I love to go outside and explore unknown territory for the thrill of adventure, there is still a lot of the world I haven't seen yet but I will get there eventually." sharing his hobbies and interest with the pair and revealing he is a huge nerd. He continued "I love to fight and train to better my skills, I would often watch and sometimes participate in martial arts tournaments, for the purpose of survival and I just find it fun, Oh! and I love to eat food...LOTS of food" he finished. It's nice to be able to get to know more people, you never know who can be your allies as you build trust. "How about you? What do you do aside from sitting on a throne?" asking Nashua in return. |
