Eighteenth Wish -- Video + Text (Dated to about 45 minutes before sirens)

[Gohan's energy is very tighly controlled and pushed down when he returns. Only those particularly adept at sensing such things and also know him very well will be able to detect him that way.

[Overall, Gohan looks rather nonplussed, oddly blank for a kid that usually emotes so obviously. He blinks a little, as if disbelieving his current surroundings for a moment. Oh. So he's really back. Well, he should let people know.]

I guess there wasn't too much of a time discrepency this time, huh? What's it been here, a couple days? [A tight, forced smile that doesn't reach his eyes.] Anyway, I'm back, in case anyone was wondering about me.



Hey, it's Saiyaboy. Just letting you know, I've gotta think about a few things before I can get back in action. If I decide to, I mean.

[He's just not sure he can do this fighting thing, anymore. Not after what's just happened. And added tentatively:]

You wouldn't happen to know anyone who could help get a new level of power under control, would you?

You are well?

[He knew you were gone and he was sad, but again, cannot show. What are emotions?]

[Dangerous things, is what they are. Especially something like anger. Too easy to go off the deep end. Too easy, even for someone like him, to . . .]

I dunno. [Curse his honesty.]

[He raises an eyebrow, surprised by the admission.]

Would you care to join me for tea?

[That's as comforting as he can get, really.]

[He's kind of an emotional open book, and all. He hasn't had time yet to fully process the idea that he just got his dad permanently killed.]

Maybe in a few days, if that's okay.

[It's okay, Bya. His best friend at home is a stoic, what-are-emotions type, too.]

Of course.

[He adds the location of his office at SPU.]

I can be reached there during the week.

[He takes a mental note of the location. Even though he could probably just find him through sense alone.]

I'll probably stop in after one of my classes. [Because school is good. School will keep him busy. Maybe.]

[soul_scatter]

Of course.

[He would expect you to get back to your studies immediately.]
