It's early morning in the quiet enclosure that will someday become Luceti. The sun is rising, birds are chirping in that annoyingly cheery way that makes you want to shoot them out of the trees, and the residents are beginning to wake up. Most of them are heading to work, either to farm, or to build, or to work the shops, or even just to prepare a nice breakfast for their families and neighbours. Everyone has something to do.

And then, out of nowhere, a couple hundred strangers show up in the middle of the woods.

At first there is confusion, and no shortage of caution, from the neighbours; newcomers are common enough, but usually they are announced beforehand, and never in such great numbers. The leaders of the town are called in to ask questions. The newcomers are free to explore, but any aggression will be met in kind; if need be, the Filial of the past will defend their homes. They're hoping it won't come to that, however. You're stuck with one another for a long time, after all.

Thankfully, there is one man who might be able to bring the natives and newcomers together: Tyr.

...And the other guy, maybe. We'll see.

[... Oh god why.]

They wouldn't be that cruel.

[Hey lady, weren't you just being a pessimist or...?]

[Oh no he's not training with her no fukckckkc that]

Yes, they would, but they're not getting what they want. [HE. WILL. NOT.]

Of course they're not getting what they want. I have enough problems without having you complaining at me.

Me, complain?! What are you trying to get at?!

I didn't stutter, did I? You complain.

I've got every reason to be dissatisfied with our situation here, thank you very much.

[Probably not exactly what she's referring to is it]

You complain about everything. This situation may be your first reasonable complaint.

[It isn't but she's unhappy and starting shit with him makes her slightly less unhappy.]

I do no such thing. Give me one good example

[Vegeta is an adult]

One? Open your journal to any of your posts, I could probably point out twenty by the end of one!

[No she couldn't.]

[He points a finger at her. Argument commenced.]

I'll have you know that anything I've said on the journals was worth the time to say, they were not just petty complaints!

[Some of them were.]

[Fists balled up against her hips.]

Oh like some of them weren't. Don't act so high and mighty!

[This is reminding him of their arguments back at home. Does that mean Eighteen is getting mentally older]

How would you like it if you had miscreants running amok and causing you problems left and right, huh??!!!

[NOW he's complaning]

[Oh sure, sure she is. A ton. Which is why she's standing here picking a fight.]

Like I don't?? I don't exactly call you less of a miscreant because of your age or anything!

What are you trying to get at!!!!!!????? What's my age got to do with it???!!!!

[HIS AGE]

I'm not just some teenager hooligan because you're so much older than me, you know!!! It's not like putting on a few years somehow makes you that much wiser!!!

Everyone around here are children that have nothing better to do than waste my time! [It really isn't just her. In fact, she's annoyed him less than a lot of other people around here.]

And I'll have you know I know a lot more about just about everything than you do, so if you were smart you'd take a moment and listen for a change! [SENILE OLD MAN TALKING RIGHT HERE]

Just because you lived to some ripe old age doesn't make you full of wisdom or anything. Do you ever stop and think that everyone seems to be wasting your time because that's how you perceive it?

[Boy if this ain't the pot and the kettle.]

If you call pulling pranks on me during my training as a valuable use of time, then you've lost your mind.

[Yeeeep]

But it was such a nice song.

Hardly. Which one did you hear.

[There was like, three. And he hated all of them.]

None of them actually. But hey, if it annoys you, it must be good.

[She quirks a bit of a smirk at that. There's this impression that she's less taking a dig at him and more just being teasingly amused.]

[He sighs a frustrated sigh at her.] Some things never change with you, you know.

When we return, you can go ahead and find that atrocious music. See for yourself. I don't think you'll be saying the same after you get a taste of it.

When we return and if we do.

[But the argument has died back and that brings her to a point.]

So. You realize it's either replace the Battle Dome or deal with sparring each other, right?

[There's a noise of surprise and disgust at the idea coming from him. No. No, he does not want that.]

You're out of your mind. I'm not training with you. [Ugh she's got a point though....]

...But how? The amount of metal we would require... [It would be a lot.]

Then we'll have to skip the metal for now. You've been to a regular gym before, right?
