[During his time living at Capsule Castle with Trunks and Bulla, he'd enjoyed luxury he quite frankly wasn't aware even existed. A nice warm bed, regular meals, nothing trying to eat him or tell him to punch someone, it was great. However, he'd also become aware of the concept of television and after seeing a show involving a beach party with a barbeque, the 8 foot tall saiyan got an idea. It looked fun after all, and he'd not been hunting in quite some time. Without saying anything to the residents of Capsule Castle he set out to the Monster Island gate where he quickly killed a purple T-Rex with his bare hands.]

[With the creature dead, he began dragging it by the tail, through the streets of Fayren and into Genessia. He wasn't sure why all the cars were honking at him as the dinosaur carcass clogged up the roads behind him, he was too absorbed in bringing his barbeque to life. Finally, he got to Genessia park, and after finding a suitable clearing, he popped a pair of capsules he'd brought, providing enough rocks and wood to set up a safe bonfire. Before long, the Dinosaur began cooking as Broly watched, more than a bit pleased with himself.]

[la_matrona]

So! It's you whose done it! [she stomps up to him, a shopping basket swinging from her arm and looking incredibly put out] Cabron! What were you thinking? There's blood all over the street!

[and she's slipped in some. There's a darker red patch on her violet dress]

Who taught you how to transport an animal?!

[spacetarzan]

[If she was trying to be intimidating, it wasn't working. Broly just continues ripping chunks of meat off the carcass, before readying it for the flame.]

Then take a different road.

[That's all she's getting out of him for the moment as he chomps down on a large chunk of meat that just came off the flame.]

[la_matrona]

You take a different road! What gives you the right to destroy a main street? Now that thing is probably diseased. Who knows what it may have picked up.

[spacetarzan]

Yeah, if you eat it raw.

[He glances over to the fire, aiming a quick ki blast at the flames to get the heat up a bit.]

Are you going to eat or not?

[la_matrona]

Tonto! [she brushes off her skirts, annoyed] I suppose.

Are you not going to add any seasonings?

[spacetarzan]

[Broly is more than happy to tear a chunk of meat off that ends up being larger than her head and handing it over.]

...seasonings?

[He's been learning about modern cuisine but hasn't gotten as far as that.]

[la_matrona]

Si. Chili, oregano, pepper, onion powder... There are a thousand things you can use to make this taste better. Or of anything other than roasted meat.

[spacetarzan]

Taste... better?

[Sorry but Broly is looking more and more like a confused puppy here. He's never conceived of putting something on food to alter the taste.]

[la_matrona]

Ay. Wait here. I'll be back.

[she takes the meat with her and is gone about forty-five minutes or so. When she returns she is in a different dress and has a couple of burritos on a plate.]

Here. Try it.

[spacetarzan]

[Broly just shrugs and watches her go, happily munching on his meat as she leaves. When she returns, she'll notice a much larger chunk of dino meat is gone. When offered the burrito, he picks one up and sniffs it, not unlike a dog encountering something new before taking a small bite. A half second later and the burrito has vanished and he's half way through the second one.]

[la_matrona]

Well? [evident pride in her voice]

[spacetarzan]

[It takes a good long moment to get a response as after inhaling the burritos he sets to licking the plate like a dog trying to get every last bit of flavor off before remembering his manners. He lowers the plate and offers an awkward hand gesture that he thinks symbolizes gratitude.]

Th-thank you. That was very good.

[la_matrona]

You're welcome. [she beams] If you are hungry for good food, you will know where to look.

[burnt_offering]

[The smell of cooking meat calls to Ace like a siren's song, and he's there quickly. His eyes are wide at the amazing amount of meat, he's gotta have some of that. ] Damn. You take that thing down by yourself? [Not really a surprise, but it's still pretty great all things considered.]

[spacetarzan]

[Broly nods, offering a small smile to the newcomer as he skewers another chunk of meat on a broken off bone.]

Yeah. One hit to the base of the neck. It didn't feel a thing. Wish the Vampan ticks were as easy to take down.

[burnt_offering]

[Ace is trying to use his manners, and talk instead of just drooling or trying to get some of that, but it's hard.] Really? Wow. [He sees how big the thing was, that had to be a crazy hard hit. There are so many strong people, it's kind of amazing to him.] I gotta say, I don't have a clue what a Vampan tick is. Wanna fill me in?

[spacetarzan]

[Broly adds the new piece of meat to the fire while taking another off the flame and offering it to Ace.]

I grew up on a planetoid called Vampa, where the only real thing to eat were ticks about this tall... [He holds out a hand about 5 feet over the ground.]

Aggressive things, and sneaky. They could stab you from a good twenty feet off. They were good enough eating but tasted awful compared to stuff I've found since leaving.

[burnt_offering]

Oh, damn! Thanks! [Ace looks so grateful, what amazing meat! He's just gonna grab it and chomp down with questionable manners while listening to Broly talk about Vampa and giant ticks. Which doesn't sound that odd to him, his world has some messed up animals. But they don't sound like particularly appealing fare.] Yeah? [He's gonna put off his eating for a minute to talk more.] So what's the best thing you've eaten since leaving?

[spacetarzan]

Before coming here... the only other thing I had to eat were these odd... bars. I don't know what they were called, but after years of the ticks it was an eye opening experience.

[He talks as he takes another chunk of meat off the fire, digging in with equal enthusiasm.]

But here, I've been trying everything I can. Did you know there are these things called... what was it... sandwiches here?

[burnt_offering]

Sandwiches? Yeah, they're great. You can put anything in 'em. [He's done with his piece, he really was trying to take his time, but he really isn't one to do anything but chomp and inhale his food. Once he swallows, he gets right back to the best conversation possible, all about food.] You had curry yet? That's good too.

[spacetarzan]

[Broly shakes his head.]

I've heard the word but that's about it. I tend to stick to eating what I can hunt, and I don't know what curry is to hunt it.

[burnt_offering]

Oh man, you should try it. It's meat, with sauce that has spices in it. And you serve it on rice. It makes meat taste even better than it does normally. [It's one of the many foods he enjoys.]

[spacetarzan]

[Broly just listens with a face akin to a little kid hearing a story of an epic adventure.]

I've never heard of such things. On Vampa, all we had were the ticks, and Frieza just had little... bar things that were tasty enough...

[burnt_offering]

[Okay Ace has decided that he absolutely likes Broly. He's getting listened to, and he's been fed. That's enough for him for now to try to build a friendship on. Especially if he can get more to eat.] Life is too short for tasty enough. Give me another piece, and I'll treat you to curry later. Because you gotta try more stuff. Sandwiches only go so far.

[spacetarzan]

[Broly takes another chunk of meat off the fire and tears into it before responding.]

I would like that. [A moment later and Ace will find a rather large piece of meat being offered to him.]

[burnt_offering]

[Ace grabs the meat with a gleeful expression. The best way to his heart is through his stomach. And the best way to his stomach is through meat.] Yes! The deal is sealed. [This is so god. It almost feels like being back home.]

[More often than not, being a Deputy Guardian in Genessia is pretty quiet. Now and then, something interesting happens though.

Nothing like somone approaching to express their concerns about a man who was seen dragging a dinosaur carcass through the streets to really break up the monotony of her day.

She can sense Broly's ki within the city, so while she doesn't know for sure that he's responsible, there's a pretty short list of people capable of dragging something that big along.]

Hey Broly. You had to drag the dinosaur pretty far, huh?

[Action]

[spacetarzan]

[He nods, smiling as he uses a sharpened bone to remove the scales of a piece of meat.]

I thought this might be the best place to draw in hungry people.

[Action]

[fashionably_strong]

Well, you're definitely going to get attention.

[Not necessarily good attention, but fortunately having a deputy on scene means there's no need for anyone to call in law enforcement.]

I think it needs some spices and maybe some barbeque sauce glazed over the meat, though. And we'll have to clean everything up properly.

[She's trying to balance her responsbilities with letting him have his fun. It's ultimately harmless, after all. So reinforcing that it's important to clean up messes is probably the best thing she can do right now.]

[Action]

[spacetarzan]

[Broly just cocks his head a bit. He'd been introduced to the concept of spices by now but he wasn't sure what a sauce was.]

...barbeque... sauce?

[Action]

[fashionably_strong]

Yeah, it tastes good with meat.

[Realizing this is something she'll probably have to demonstrate rather than describe, she checks to make sure she has enough money on her.]

Tell you what. I'll go buy some and be back here in about five to ten minutes.

[Hopefully the line at the grocery store wouldn't be too long.]
