Who: Bulma and YOU(!!)
Where: Plaza areaish?
When: TODAY MORNING 'O CLOCKNOON?? (Mid-morning more like)
Style: [Brackets]
Status: Opeeeen

[Of course it didn't take Bulma long to figure out how the SFC worked. She even made time to criticize how obsolete the design and features were despite being profoundly confused about where she was at the moment. It certainly wasn't where she was a few seconds ago, nobody that she knew was around and she was...soaking wet. Her initial shock and shouts of "REALLY? REALLY?!" aside, she has to consider more practical options. Panic? Well yes that was an option, she could do that once she got more information, for now Bulma is sitting in the Plaza sending out a message to the network at large.]

Krillin,

You think you can get away from telling Chichi about Gohan and Goku?

When I find you, you're going to pay for ditching me.

<3

[Never mind that Krillin's number doesn't show up no matter how many different ways she tries to sort the directory out, she still attributes it to the technology being flawed. Being a super genius, however, has its perks and she knows very well she can fix it up.

But first, she'll pocket the thing and wander off to find an open space to put her capsule house. She needs a warm bath and a change of clothes, stat. ...And to get away from the weird greeters; it's nice of them to offer her towels and everything, but a girl has to assert her personal space!]

No thank you, I REALLY don't want a towel, I'm fine!

[He smiles slightly--yup definitely has his stepford smile on.]

Ah, no. My mother does.

[Yay for telling the truth in such a way that it might hopefully not trip too many alarms?]

I'm Trunks.

Nice to meet you, Trunks! [...Even though she's soaking wet and in a strange place?] Well...not here, anyway, but at least there's some familiarity.

[She's still not certain if she was referring to the logo or the boy himself. This was going to bother her for a while.]

Do you have any idea where we are?

[You have no idea.]

It's a city called Vatheon. We're in a different world entirely, and people from different worlds and times are all brought here.

Great, so we've got temporal and dimensional complications going on. That's just what I needed right now.

Yeah, I'm from Age 784.

[He fully expects that to be some 25 or so years in the future for you. Trying to sneakily gauge how much the 'temporal complication' is.]

[Please hold, Bulma's having an internal freakout.]

[Please continue to hold, she's processing the information and preparing to scream.]

...WHAT?! That's--WHAT?!

[She can't, she can't wrap her mind around it. So she'll just shake her head and pull at her hair instead.]

Nonononono that can't be! That's more than twenty years from now! What's even happened in the future?? What happened to me?

[Besides grow ancient.]

[EARS. RINGING. ow mom geeze.]

Calm down!

[STOP YELLING I'LL GO DEAF. :C also really don't want to get into the whole 'half the world is destroyed most of your friends and mine are dead and everything sucks' thing right now okay]

I'M PERFECTLY CALM!

OR AT LEAST I'M AS CALM AS I CAN BE WHEN I'M MEETING A KID FROM THE FUTURE!

[Breathe. Breathe. Okay, Bulma, pull yourself together.]

On the upside, though, obviously the Saiyans didn't destroy earth in that time.

Ah, no, they didn't.

[Wait should he let on that he knows about that oh well it's out of his mouth now.

...and no the Saiyans didn't destroy it, but it got pretty messed up all the same.]

Meeting people from the future or the past isn't exactly uncommon here.

I'm starting to see that. Maybe someone from my time will show up eventually.

[...He knows about the Saiyans. Perhaps he knows more than she initially assumed, was he related to one of them? A thought crosses her mind that maybe he looks so familiar because she's being reminded of one of her friends, though she's not sure which combination would make someone that looked like the boy.

Maybe Tien and Launch finally hooked up.]

But why are we here? Is it some anomaly about this city that they haven't corrected or is there a reason for us specifically?

It seems likely. I'm the furthest out, so far.

[lalala he hadn't met Bulla yet at this point...]

I'm not exactly sure. Our energy is drawn by the coral to keep the barrier active, the one that keeps the water out, but that can't be the only reason. If there are others we know of, I haven't been told about them.

Wow, you need to work on your detective skills, kid. Don't worry about it, I'll find out what's really going on with this bubble and let you know!

[She's on the case and all of that rot!!]

So, Trunks, you know about the Saiyans, do you know Goku and the rest of them too?

It hasn't been much of a concern of mine, I'll admit that.

[It...probably should be, but eh.]

I can't say I know everyone, but Gohan is a good friend.

[Everyone else he can't really say. He's heard all the stories though.]

Well, that's okay! I'm a friend of Gohan's too and you seem like a good kid, so obviously we can be friends! See? That's one more of our group that you know now.

[She'll figure out why he looks so familiar yet. :|]

[come on Bulma you're a smart lady you can do it.

Also he's really glad that you're not asking why he only knows Gohan and not anybody else, sob.]

Maybe some of the others will show up too.

Yeah, and then you can meet the rest of them! Goku would probably like you. Then again, he likes everyone unless you really give him a reason not to.

So I've heard.

[Between you and Gohan man, he heard aaaaaaall the stories.]

I just haven't had the chance to meet him myself.

[Lies. But it's easier to say that than go 'oh yeah I met him after traveling 20 years into the past because he's kinda dead in my timeline and REALLY HE SEEMS LIKE AN AWESOME GUY but...']
