Monster or Man [Closed]

Who: Android 18 and Krillin
Where: Kame Dojo
Why: Let's just say someone has gone off the deep end due to her own mind and someone else's influence.
When: After this post

That whole post had only proven one thing to her, she couldn't trust anyone but herself in this damn place. That they all pretended everything was fine and okay, that you could make your own path and decisions despite what the past may say otherwise. She'd thought that at one point, had tried to do such a thing and all it had done was alienate her to others that were supposed to be friendly to her. It wasn't worth the effort of continuing in such a path, to allow the nagging at the back of her mind and the yearning in her soul (if she still had one, she's wasn't entirely sure anymore) for destruction that was ingrained in her very being by being who she was.

Even as a human, so many years ago, she'd fought others for her own survival and due to the fun of it. But things had been a little different then, she'd had help in her endeavors and wasn't left to being unable to speak of things to other people. Without that outlet she really was truly alone, even her own husband didn't seem to understand what had happened. That was probably the most frustrating part of it all, how... optimistic he was about everything without having to experience the pain of such a thing.

Closing out the phone app she shoved it into the pocket of her vest, moving from the main part of the dojo to the door that separated it and their tiny apartment. One hand grabbing and opening the door to get him down here. It would be easier than destroying everything in there, after all. Would give her more room if she needed it.

"Krillin, come out here, would you?" She's keeping her voice even, the malice and unrest hidden beneath layers of lies and secrecy she'd learned long before now. He didn't need to know her emotions right now and luckily she could keep her tone and expression absolutely without emotion through that training.

Without another word she moved back to the center of the dojo, arms crossed over her chest as they normally would be. Blue eyes colder than they normally would be, something of a forgotten age, something not seen since she'd been activated, not seen after Cell had become an actual threat to all of them.

She could wait, certainly, but there was only so much patience that could keep her from problems for now. Only so much the darkness would allow her to wait peacefully.

Krillin maintains his stance, but doesn't move otherwise. "I know you well enough to know that you're not as simple as you claim. I know you like fashion and nature. I know you like animals and dancing. As for 'what you did'? If we can give Vegeta a second chance, someone who didn't actually kill anyone definitely deserves a chance at a normal life. Saying this is all there is to you? That's selling yourself criminally short. Do whatever you want, but I'm not giving up on you."

Krillin grimaces for a second as he feels the bones in his shoulder creak dangerously before flashing a smirk back at 18. "I'm pretty good at spotting a liar. You're good at it when you want to be, but I've always been able to tell. As for what's talking? That's me talking. I'm not giving up on you, heart, body, and soul."

He sees the knee, and makes no attempt to move, taking the blow full on, gritting his teeth against the pain. Lesser men would've passed out but Krillin maintains his stance as best he can while pinned. Thank god for balls of steel, huh?

Krillin's tolerance for pain is insanely high, but she will get a couple grunts. But he maintains his defiance in the face of all this.

"Not going to happen. If you hadn't noticed, I'm the team cheerleader. I don't abandon my friends when some cosmic horror shows up, and I damn well am not going to abandon my wife."

He takes a moment to fidget, bracing one foot on the wall behind him before pressing his neck harder against 18's hand.

"If this is really who you are, if all this meant nothing to you, just kill me and get it over with. That's the only way you're going to get rid of me. And even then I have a habit of being persistent."
