Staking out restaurants: best way to catch a Saiyan.

[zelda_hylia]

Who: Zelda, Rhi'a
Where: One of Vatheon's many fine establishments
When: Before the curse, morning, February 5th
Style: Delicious actionspam
Status: Semi-open, poke one of us first~

[After gathering a little information about Vegeta, Zelda decides to try and find him for herself. She doesn't want to speak with him, just observe him a little. The largest lead she has about him is that he's hitting every restaurant in town. She can be found in one early morning, sitting off to the side with a glass of water and just watching.]

[zelda_hylia]

No, he did not. I know that he can be inappropriate and insulting, but he just doesn't understand a lot of things. He wouldn't hurt anyone purposefully.

[She tilts her head at Rhi'a.]

You know each other?

[gun_symphony]

Yes, actually. He commented on my music post on the network about a week ago.

[zelda_hylia]

Ah, I can see him doing that. He does love music.

[She pauses.]

He... did not bother you about the piano, did he?

[gun_symphony]

[That gets her to crack a smile, before giggling.]

He actually thought I might be evil because of it. It was...interesting. And cute, now that I look back upon it with more information.

[zelda_hylia]

[Zelda attempts to be stern about it before joining in the giggling.]

Oh, I'm sorry. He's really got some strange ideas! Ah, thank you.

[The princess accepts the food as it's brought to them, realizing just how hungry she was once it's before her.]

He is learning quickly, though. Thank you for treating him kindly.

[gun_symphony]

Yes, yes he does. Still, he gave us both a good laugh now~

[And Rhi'a will be extremely glad her food was here. Because trust me, she was starving. However...something was a bit off if you noticed. The dragonkin looked at her plate with an almost...animal-like stare, before picking up her fork and knife and started eating like a normal lady.

The look only lasted a few seconds, but it might give away something off about her. After swallowing her first bite, she continues speaking while cutting her second.]

You are most welcome, Zelda. It was no trouble, really.

[zelda_hylia]

[Rhi'a's lust for her food does not go unnoticed by Zelda. She hasn't ever seen anyone (or thing) look at their dinner quite like that before. It takes her a moment to respond again.]

Ah, yes, did you make any further plans on that musical gathering? I think it would be nice to get together.

[gun_symphony]

[And Rhi'a's powers of observation are just as sharp as Zelda's. Difference being, she's far more blunt.]

Not yet, I'm afraid. However, I completely agree.

[A beat.]

Something wrong, Zelda?

Need a moment? Grab a twix!

[zelda_hylia]

Oh! No, I'm sorry. You just looked rather hungry, that's all.

[Zelda takes a bite of her sandwich so she can avoid having to explain that one further.]

And now I want chocolate. XD (D: Third time's a charm. ;W;)

[gun_symphony]

Really? I suppose I am rather famished. I woke up late today and forgot breakfast, heh.

[And noticing Zelda eating her sandwich instead of talking, she proceeds to eat her own meal. And she tilts her head forward while cutting her steak, perhaps giving Zelda a better view of those horns on her head.]

[zelda_hylia]

[She regards the horns with curiosity as she takes a drink. It was really rude to ask someone else what they were, but in Vatheon a person could hardly be expected to actually know. Maybe she could start small.]

May I ask what world you are from, Rhi'a? I'm from Demari myself, the country of Hyrule.

[gun_symphony]

Truthfully? My world doesn't have a name. We weren't fully aware of other worlds and planets outside our own.

Why do you ask?

[zelda_hylia]

[Oh no, now she has to be frank!]

I was curious about the horns on your head. I don't think I have seen something like that on someone who otherwise appears to be a human, before.

[She smiles sheepishly.]

Not that being something other than a human is a bad thing! I am not human, myself.

[gun_symphony]

My horns?

[She giggles at bit, before answering.]

Oh, that's because I'm a feral. A feral, in case you don't know, is sorta like a human, but with more animal-like features. Each feral is a different one, and I am one of the dragonkin. ...well, the only surviving member, anyway.

[zelda_hylia]

[Zelda looks surprised to hear that Rhi'a is a sort of dragon. Sure, there were legends about good dragons, but the only ones she'd ever known were just rampaging beasts with a taste for treasure.]

How fascinating. My condolences for being the last, though. That must be difficult for you.

[gun_symphony]

[She tries to hold a smile. She really does...but...

But it's not as full as normal. Not because she minds much...but because being the last reminds her her grandfather is dead...]

It's...manageable. I've lived a good portion of my life without my kin.

though...I have a lot of responsibilities to them. But I am confident in myself. I can do it. I have to. Failure is not an option.

[zelda_hylia]

[Zelda nods solemnly. Rhi'a's sense of duty strikes a chord with her.]

You must forge on in their stead. You seem like a strong woman, I have no doubt that you can do so.

[gun_symphony]

...thank you Zelda. Your words of reassurance mean a lot.

[And then next thing you know Zelda, HUG! Rhi'a smiles, wrapping her arms tightly around her new friend. Clearly she's really happy now.]

[zelda_hylia]

[Zelda blushes, looking around uncertainly before returning the hug lightly. She isn't used to being touched all that frequently, having spent the last seven years of her life as a Sheikah and on the run. It's kind of nice, though... She's so completely distracted by the hug that she doesn't even see Vegeta flying by to find another restaurant until it's too late. So much for that!]

A-ahh! There he just went!

[gun_symphony]

R-really!?

[And cue end of hug as she looks up fast enough to see him dart off.]

Should we try and follow him?

[zelda_hylia]

[Zelda pauses, trying to sense for his presence but feeling no magic at all. Strange... how had he been flying, then?]

No, he is too far out of range. How fast...

[gun_symphony]

He was going at an impressive speed.

I wonder how he achieved it.

[zelda_hylia]

It wasn't magic... I've never felt an energy like that before.

[Don't mind Zelda, she's sulking now.]

[gun_symphony]

Neither have I.

Hmmm...perhaps some research is in order.

[zelda_hylia]

That sounds like a good idea.

[Hey, maybe she can injure him and drop him off at the clinic! Muraki would like that, wouldn't he? And hadn't Medic been going about vivisection during the confessions curse? That would qualify as research...]
