So it's welcome and get to work, hm.

[The video shows a woman with short blonde hair, bright blue eyes and an expression set and calmly cool. She waves the stack of red bills bound in their white ribbon in her free hand.]

Well that's quick and handy, isn't it.

[There is a distinct air of icy amusement to her tone, coupled with the faint smirk.]

I don't mind jobs really but there better be entertaining ones here. I don't like being bored.

[That said, she has little else she needs from the network. Now it's all about exploration and figuring out the lay of the land. If she's not at home and won't be getting back, she's going to make damn sure she thrives here.

First though:]

If any of you see a man just a little shorter than me? Don't touch him. He's mine.

[Said with conviction and matter-of-fact ease as she switches off her communicator in the next beat.]

[Once he does land, Eighteen does the most sensible thing. She plants her hand right atop his head and ruffles what bit of fuzz he has.]

You've been here a while.

[She doesn't sound angry or accusatory, more curious.]

[He makes a face at the fuzz ruffling, but doesn't back away. On the contrary, that only drives him closer.]

Yeah, I've been here a couple weeks. You're not mad? I... was kinda worried you would be if I just... vanished for a couple weeks so soon after our wedding...

Mad? Not really.

[The ruffling turns slowly into a more firm grip.]

After all it's not like you would want to run from me at this point. Right?

Me? Run away from you?

[He's just gonna chuckle and loop an arm around her waist.]

I might run away with you maybe.

[She makes an amused sound at that.]

Good. I'd hate to start this whole marriage business wrong.

[Now she nudges her head in the direction of the area around them.]

So what's the deal with this place? Beyond what the guides say.

[Krillin just shrugs.]

I'm not too sure myself. I mean, the guides pretty much cover it. No Dragon Balls either, so there's no easy out of just wishing our way home. I've been staying in a hotel nearby, but according to everything I've seen we're probably going to be here a while. Might be worth looking into a more permanent place.

A place away from the old man, huh.

[That... actually sounds nice. No, she could really get to like that. Master Roshi was harmless but damn if she wasn't tired of needing to kick him in the face every so often to remind him why peeping on her wasn't the brightest of ideas.]

It couldn't hurt anyhow, at least until we figure out a way back.

[At this point Roshi was more of a father to him than anyone else ever had been and he loves the old coot but... he was a perv. Heck, he had weaponized that perviness back in the day at Baba's. And a hotel room, just the two of them? No world-breaking threats breathing down their necks, and no tournaments to train for? Sounding pretty damn good right about now.]

[...Of course all these thoughts aren't helping him avoid blushing.]

Yeah, it's a pretty nice room, queen sized bed, balcony and everything. S-shall we... uh... go inspect it?

[For a moment Eighteen doesn't seem to get the precise connotation. It's not the first time he's flushed around her and it certainly won't be the last, though the expression rises less often now than it may have at first.

She looks down on him with one hand still perched atop his head. And then when it does dawn on her, it arrives with the quick creep of heat in her own cheeks.]

... May as well.

[Krillin just grins and chuckles like he'd just found the last Dragon Ball and Vegeta was on the other side of the galaxy. He took a couple steps away, shifting his arm from her waist to take her hand as he started floating upward.]

Come on, it's not far, and I have a feeling you'll like it.

[It's easy enough to follow along with him then.]

I don't doubt it. You do have good taste.

[Egocentric much?]
