❝  I do agree, it’s a lot nicer now that you’re here. Brings back memories of the past..❞

                                              ❝  We  got  two  months  to  get  it–too  early  &  that  thing  is  gonna  die  &  the  house  is  gonna  reek  of  pine.  I  say  we  go  tree  hunting  towards  the  ending  of  the  month—or  I  can  get  it  myself.  ❞ @acceldriver

❝  You’re not going by yourself Eighteen. The last thing I need is you doing that and then you saying I don’t help around the house.❞

@acceldriver liked x for a lyrical starter!

           “if you don’t want me to stay i can leave..i’d rather you not be uncomfortable.”

❝  What is that in your forehead?❞

Seventeen had seen that object before, but it seemed different? The moment he laid eyes on this person his attention was soon grabbed, but more importantly, he was now extremely cautious.

❛ But aren’t you already human, just with a few tweaks? ❜ Hearing that his brother did a good job watching over the island and its animals made Gohan feel proud of Goten. But a part of him knew that his brother would have little to no trouble protecting the island, if anything Gohan was worried for the ones who chose to attack the island… However something felt off when Seventeen brought up Sixteen, did he get to personal when asking about his profession?

❛ Well I think Sixteen would be happy to see you take such a liking to nature. Still feels weird that the tournament was our first time really meeting each other, even though I know about you & Eighteen. ❜

 ❝ Somewhat, however.. You wouldn’t understand being taken , and experimented on, While I am still somewhat human, I don’t feel it. ❞

A few tweaks was putting it lightly. Honestly, he wondered if Gohan truly knew what he had gone through, he severely doubted it, and he doubted Eighteen talked about it either. Gohan also probably remembered Sixteen... For very, very obvious reasons.

❝ . . . Thank you  Gohan.  ❞

                                                ❝  When  you  give  me  my  own  card,  I  won’t  drag  your  ass  out  anywhere.  ❞  Oh!  &  a  swing  for  a  swing!  As  if  he  was  going  to  try  &  pin  this  on  her.  When  you  make  an  offer  like  that,  one  can  easily  assume  you’re  gonna  go  all  out.  Then  again  he  knew  how  to  keep  her  happy–that  meant  it’d  be  easier  for  him  to  get  what  he  wanted.

                                             ❝  I  tell  you  that,  you’re  gonna  clench  your  wallet.  ❞   cwthe  surprise  in  her  giving  it  away?  Nah.  Seventeen  signed  up  for  this  nonsense  &  now  he’d  have  to  deal.  Hope  he  brought  reading  material.

    ❝  We can get you a card, I don’t know why you don’t have one yet. ❞

Seventeen shrugs his shoulders lightly. Honestly he was more than happy to do whatever helps her out, but at the same time, he did want to visit her on trips to the town more often than not. Regardless, if she wanted her own card, then he could get that.

❛ Cell huh? You know, with how often Frieza kept coming back I wouldn’t be shocked if he somehow resurfaced & started causing trouble. ❜ In truth Gohan didn’t know much about Seventeen or anything prior to the tournament, and even though everything returned to normal in the end ( thanks to Seventeen’s wish ) the fact that Gohan was personally responsible for hundreds of millions of people dying due to the harsh rules of the tournament still didn’t set well with him.

❛ No problem, hopefully my brother didn’t cause any trouble while you left him and Trunks to look after the place… Though I do have a question, why a park ranger? ❜

If he managed to somehow come back, Seventeen would certainly be ready for it, he wouldn’t be caught off guard like he was before.. Though knowing how he had worked, he wouldn’t need to absorb them.. At the question about his job choice though ,this would be the time at which he’d feel a tug at his heart strings.

❛ Oh Seventeen. Things are good, I mean as good as good can get for the most part. As for my dad, there’s no helping it. You know he loves a good fight and if anything he’s even more eager to fight Jiren or even someone above his caliber. I just hope we don’t have another tournament that puts our very lives on the line… But how are things with you and protecting the animals? ❜

   ❝  I would much rather deal with Cell, than see him come back, as great of a fight as it was, I do admit peace and quiet is much preferred.❞

This meant that Seventeen could finally focus on what he loved most of all. Nature, tending to the land, and doing what surely would make Sixteen proud of him. His hands slid into his own pockets now as he looked at Gohan, remembering the stories he was told of Cell..

    ❝  Now that the tournament is over, I have to ask, how have things been. With you, and the others? I hope your father isn’t getting too wild with trying to get Jiren  to come back. ❞
