You stood perfectly still as you waited for the dinosaur to finish approaching you, it was obviously trying to hunt you, and you were in absolutely no danger whatsoever, so you allowed it to get closer and closer to you. It was actually taking too long for your liking, honestly, and you wished that it would just hurry up and attack you already, what the hell was it trying to do? It was as big as a building, when it came to stealth, there were few things that would do as poor a job as this dinosaur, even if you couldn't sense Ki, the racket it was making just by moving around would've been more than enough for you to know where it was.

Finally, just as the dinosaur dashed out of the bushes and attempted to attack you, you just moved out of the way of the attack with great speed, leading the dinosaur to just smash its teeth together on thin air, stunning it for a moment. You looked at the dinosaur for a moment, it had black scales, and was clearly a powerful monster... you kept examining it as it tried to find you again, even using your scouter to determine the strength of the beast, and it wasn't exactly weak, with a natural power level of about 15,000, it was surprisingly powerful. To have a body that strong with no knowledge of Ki whatsoever was incredible! Even accounting for its tremendous size, the physical power of the creature was about two orders of magnitude above what it should actually be! You had no idea how you managed to overlook the relatively high power of the beast, but... well, seeing as its power was entirely invested in physical strength, it was still no threat at all to even people who had a similar level of power to it. It was painfully slow, and without the ability to utilize Ki, it was both incapable of utilizing long-ranged attacks as well as incapable of sensing its enemies. Even Kachi-Kachi, who was still nesting in your hair, hadn't bothered to even wake up from the attack.

"Hmm... you know, I could use something to eat... but..." You jumped on top of the dinosaurs head, and it started to thrash about wildly. Of course, such thrashing about was completely pointless, and it was completely effortless to stay on top of the dinosaur, even though it was desperately trying to throw you off. It was so easy, in fact, that you just crossed your arms as you stayed perfectly still on top of the dinosaur's head, even though it was frantically whipping its head to-and-fro to zero effect. Eventually, the beast began to tire itself out, confused and furious at what was going on, but utterly powerless to change anything. If it were a little more intelligent, it might try to use the nearby trees to knock you off, but if it tried, it would've just done more damage to itself than you.

The beast continued to roar loudly, even as its energy began to dwindle, and if nothing else, it was providing an excellent source of noise and commotion for Schala and her group to investigate. However, just because it was providing a good beacon to attract the attention of your allies didn't mean that you wanted to spend forever trying to calm the beast down to ride it, so... an idea flashed through your head. You knew that it was possible to use telepathy from when you trained with Khive, and though you didn't learn how to use it yourself... the premise behind it didn't seem to be that difficult for you to grasp now. Ki was a highly malleable thing, and it could be used for all sorts of applications, even being converted into Magic Energy. Magic Energy was still an enigma to you, it was seemingly some sort of highly specialized form of the energy that is inherent to all life, and by being so specialized, it was capable of far more than basic Ki. Of course, you wouldn't need to use Magic for what you were about to attempt.

Crouching down and placing your palm against the dinosaur's head, you closed your eyes and began to focus, sending a pulse of your Ki through the body of the creature, and establishing a telepathic contact with the beast... it was imperfect, but... it would do the trick for what you needed right now. You reached out to the creature's mind, which was a roil of rage and confusion, and you exerted your will upon the beast, forcibly attempting to calm the creature by suffusing it with emotions of calm, and... it actually started to work! While actually attempting to use verbal communication with the creature was doomed to failure, it could understand emotions, and... after calming the beast, you started to try to share images with the creature, imagining scenes of you easily defeating the beast. You could feel the fear building in the creature, but then... you shared one last image through the telepathic link you had managed to establish... that of you riding the beast happily, and... unbelievably, a feeling of acceptance emanated from the dinosaur, as if it had agreed to allow you to ride it. While this form of telepathic control wouldn't ever be useful on intelligent life, against a mindless creature like this dinosaur, you had no problem with getting it to agree to allow you to ride it without even needing to lift a finger against it. Of course, the violence was implied through your telepathic contact, but that was necessary against a creature that was as naturally violent as this one was.

With the dinosaur effectively fully subservient to you now, you cut the telepathic contact with the beast, satisfied with your application of Ki. Telepathy alone was tremendously useful, and it would be even more useful if you managed to figure out how to use it over a longer distance, being able to communicate and organize with your allies over great distances would be even more useful. Not only that, if you could do something like that, you wouldn't have even needed to have gone searching for Glenn and Ayla in the first place, you could've just asked the two of them where they were! The telepathic link went both ways as well, so once it was established, they wouldn't have any problems with communicating through it, even if they themselves weren't capable of telepathy!

Happy with your work, you were just about to set off to find everyone else, when you noticed another group of Ki signatures converging on you... this group was way smaller, and... the strongest only managed to reach a reading of about... 50? A disappointing number, though still stronger than pretty much any human in the era... it was then that you noticed just what the creatures were... and it immediately brought a frown to your face.

Clad in animal furs and wielding primitive looking spears... were what appeared to be Reptites... but what's more than that, they had appeared to have degraded quite a great deal from when you had last seen them millions of years into this planet's past. One of the Reptites, one with a fancy hat, pointed their spear at you, and shouted. "Aka! Aka! Tyno!" Before all twenty or so of the group starting running towards you, primitive spears held out in front of them. You scoffed at the charge.

I don't like Godzilla, it makes no sense for Rettace to call him that.
I'd like to give it a plant based name, like Thorn, Root or Stem. Fits the Saiyan vegetable name theme.
Maybe Xylem or Phloem would be good too.

>>5137584

Depends on if our kid is male or female honestly. Orion is a boy's name.
I'd like to teach our dinosaur how to use Ki through Telepathy.
I want it to be stronger than Freeza is.
Sadly that's a long term goal as funny as taking Freeza to Jurassic Park would be on Namek

Yeah, I don't like Godzilla either. I would have proposed that we ask Schala for a suggestion, but
>>5137601
I really like Orion, the hunter, as a name for a T-Rex pet. Much more than I would for a kid. It fits with the name of Magus's cat, Alfador, who was named after the star Alphard. I'm sure Schala would like it.

Maybe some variation of Orion? How about Oranno or something? A combination of Orion and Tyranno, which is the name of the boss in the game, and it kinda sounds like oregano for the Saiyan connection.

>>5137712
Yes, also i love the image i wonder if that is how Little orion looks like?
Also, it will be a funny story when we get back at the castle with it, some guards might get their mind shaken by it

It is imho the best jRPG and one of the best games ever made. You definitely should play it. As for how, it's a game that came out in 1995 and you have plenty of options, but the tl;dr is: Find and play the SNES version on an emulator. It's the original and still the best. All it's missing from later versions that's worth it are the Toriyama cutscenes, but luckily youtube exists. Here they are: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svazl_YkV5w&list=PLLrJ-TiR5k7kEI06vDk7QFRXxBHF8Ts3T

>how bad is it?
>The Good
It has some QoL features and options, maybe Square realizes there's demand for a remake and maybe that remake isn't completely terrible?
>The Bad
I dislike the keyboard controls and some changes they've made to the interface, but those are fairly minor. The upscaled graphics also look worse imho, but there's an option to go back to the original sprites. The major problem is the extra content. The terrible, terrible extra content that you're better off skipping. If you find yourself in something called Lost Sanctum or Dimensional Vortex, run away and don't look back.

>are there games similar to chrono trigger and dragon quest?
If you're asking for games with Toriyama artwork, the only other one I know of is Blue Dragon but I haven't played it. If you want similar games then you can go for other classic jRPGs like Final Fantasy VI or Trials of Mana. And it's a longshot, but if you're looking for games with similar combat to Dragon Quest, you could try wRPG blobbers like Wizardry or Might and Magic.

There was no sense in wasting any of your time with these weakling Reptites, they had obviously degraded a massive amount since you had seen them in the past, and it didn't even appear as if they were capable of properly forming words anymore. They had instead reverted to such a degree that they were doing no more than screaming animalistic grunts at one another, any semblance of truly understanding language had apparently been lost. Deciding that there was absolutely no point in dealing with the Reptites, you quickly sent a telepathic signal to the dinosaur to head in the direction you felt Zeal, Magus and Ayla's Ki from.

The dinosaur roared as it barreled through the Reptites, sending a few of them flying as it just smashed its way through everything in its path, Reptites, trees, boulders... it was strong enough that it was able to just smash anything that dared get in its path. This dinosaur was the most powerful being that lived in this small underground world, that much was clear from just how effortlessly it could tear through absolutely anything in front of it.

Soon enough, after carving a path of destruction through the jungle, you were approaching the Ki you could feel, but before you got too close, you once again gave the dinosaur a command, telling it to stop this time. You didn't want Magus, Ayla or Zeal to get startled by the sudden appearance of the huge beast and attempt to attack it, even if you'd probably be able to effortlessly block their attack before explaining the situation, it was best you didn't let things get to that point, there was no need to do such a thing... not to mention that you were actually thousands of times faster just flying through the air than you were riding on the back of the dinosaur... it would've been way more efficient to have just flown all the way over to them and disregard everything else, but... well, you couldn't deny that it was quite enjoyable to just ride a dinosaur instead of fly yourself sometimes... you needed to think of a name for the dinosaur though, you felt like keeping him.

Leaving the dinosaur behind, you flew through the air at incredible speed, and in the span of a few seconds, you covered the remaining distance between you and your missing group, landing on the ground lightly as you appeared in front of Schala, surprising her, and almost causing her to fall over, but you were fast enough to catch her before she fell. "Rettace? What are you doing here?" Schala asked, confused as to why you had appeared.

"Well... you were taking a long time to return with Ayla, so I figured I'd go check on you. Nothing has gone wrong right?" They all looked fine, at least.

"Oh... it's nothing, really..." Schala looked at Magus for a moment, and then at Zeal before she continued to speak. "After Magus used a tracking spell to find her, it was relatively simple for us to find out where Ayla was, the problem was..."

"That she was hundreds of meters underground, in this utterly bizarre cave." Magus finished his sister's sentence for her. "The amount of those savage lizard creatures that I've had to deal with is quite excessive, violence is the only language that these creatures seem to understand." Schala frowned at Magus' comment, but she didn't say anything. You imagined that the group likely attempted to make peaceful contact initially.

"Reptite... Reptites become like beast." Ayla shook her head sadly. "Azala wrong. Human superior." She nodded to herself, satisfied in her assessment of the situation that the Reptites were actually inferior, well in that the Reptites as they were now were far more savage and incapable of rational thought than Ayla or her tribe were, she wasn't actually wrong. It took millions of years of degradation for them to reach this point, but... the humans of millions of years ago had only grown more intelligent... in fact, the Kingdom of Zeal when it still existed was far more advanced a civilization than even what the current era was capable of... and likely of comparable levels of advancement to the future in which Robo came from. Humanity had shown itself capable of overcoming cataclysms like the fall of Zeal and returning to that same level of civilization, while the Reptites just degraded completely after a single cataclysm.

"I must admit, the creatures in this place are quite strange." Zeal noted. "I can only assume that this cave system has only opened up recently through some tectonic event, I don't recall anything like it existing back when I explored the world... though perhaps it was opened by the fall of the floating kingdom?" Zeal seemed to be trying to theorize as to the origins of the cave, but it didn't really matter. The Reptites were of no concern to you right now, the only threat in this place was that some of the wildlife could cause issues if it escaped... but nothing that Crono and Marle wouldn't be able to effortlessly deal with.

"So... any particular reason that you're still here, and haven't yet returned to the surface?" You decided to ask them, wondering if they were searching for something down here for some reason. Aside from the powerful wildlife, there didn't seem to be of much interest in this jungle cave.

"Not really, and in truth, I'm not even certain how Ayla managed to find this place either. She can't sense energy or find people with magic, so... I can only assume that it was pure dumb luck that she managed to get here... but all the same, Ayla doesn't seem to want to leave." Magus shrugged, clearly not having the faintest idea as to why Ayla wasn't prepared to leave.

"Find Reptite leader." Ayla spoke, as she started prowling around again, was she... trying to use her sense of smell to find this apparent Reptite leader? "Smell of Azala! Smart Reptite... maybe around still." Despite what she had already seen, she clearly believed that there might still be some danger left from the Reptites somehow. Of course, you doubted it.

Get on the floor.
Everybody walk the dinosaur.
I'm kinda wondering how big Lucca's ship is gonna end up being.
Doubtful it'll be Black Omen size but I want at least a large ship to fly around.
At least much bigger than Freuza's gay little frisbee, I want to show up and flex on him.
Wonder if Lucca can create energy shields tough enough to survive Freiza's spergeout.
She's seemingly smarter than Gero, who was behind 17s barriers, so maybe?

we know that the black omen could survive lavos´s crazy powers. and he was pretty strong, not as frieza but few beings compare to pre time eater lavos. Anyways, i want to get gero´s blueprints of the androids, not only to improve robo bro but also to get that sweet perpetual energy so that we can have powerful shields too.

Also, after the fall of frieza the universe becomes pretty chaotic with a bunch of warlords, so are we planning to help the planet patrols? i could see it as a nice way to explore other planets and fulfill lucca´s dream of putting a teleporter in each planet across the galaxy

also, it would be a nice in between saga for us while we await the high end stuff that comes with being the time guardians. god i am hyped for the stuff that will come from having our own toki toki. i expect dragon ball heroes shenanigans but with a spice from chrono trigger (imaginé if we can get for a companion a post death glenn, with his sword and training in the otherworld, if he does wish for that training.) Though i do fear the time when towa,mechi and other villains do appear

>>5139479
Well, that means that Freeza will meed to at least use his third form or final form to even damage the ship if the Durability carries over, and Lucca might be able to route the energy from the sun stone to the shields if we have them.
Getting Gero's blueprints is fairly important, because they are actually more like bio-mechanical enhancements for 17 and 18, sort of the pre-stage to Cell.
16, 19 and 20 are the purely mechanical ones we'll be able to use to upgrade Robo.
17 and 18s augmentations being given to actual fighters could easily make some immensely powerful warriors. It took basic baseline humans to levels beyond Super Saiyans.
17s untrained Power Level was way beyond Freeza, which is why DBS 17 is so powerful, I think.
If 18 worked out, she could've stopped Buu.
I'm looking forward to time shenanigans too, also, we don't even have to grab Glenn from Otherworld if we start the Patrol properly, we can just recruit him from 600AD, right?

>>5139486
don't they also wacht over time shenanigans? Also, good chrono trigger is such a great game, bless the anon who convinced me to play it

>>5139449
It should be pretty large, going by when she revealed the plans:
>and when you saw just how large that Lucca's designs for the ship were making it out to be, it was obvious that landing was going to be incredibly impractical in most situations... unless you find a sufficiently advanced planet with good enough facilities to land a colossal ship at.
She also said that it'll have Sun Stone powered shields able to tank Lavos's blast, they might be strong enough to tank Freeza.

>>5139479
We'll have a few years after Freeza dies and before the Androids become a problem. My ideal post-Namek timeline would have us spend a few months on Earth RnRing and training with the Z Fighters and then a journey across the universe to expand the teleportation network and beat up more bad guys until something important happens and we have to pause the journey, like Schala getting pregnant.

And yeah, I'm really looking forward to the Time stuff as well. Can't wait to build our own Time Nest and establish our own Time Patrol, or for Mechikabura and Towa to take a swing at this Supreme Kai of Time and realize that she and her family aren't as easy a prey as they'd expected.

i don't know. bits just that quest usually take a little more in giving a waifu, but by chapter 6 or 7 we might be already with children. and that just gives me memories of another quests. like i don't dislike the making a family but this is a dragon ball quest, and i want to go around, battle cool characters and do cools stuff. But when anons start talking about wanting kids and waifus, i just feel that we will be filled with kids shenanigans and worse (this might not be fair, since wukong never had the chance to write it, but thanks to the other saiyan quest i am already tired of kids and all that. that quest was only fun when we could do saiyan stuff and it doesn't help that when the mc have children, usually anons never vote to pass the torch so the kids are usually treated like gotens and trunks but more annoying.)
>>5139695
rolling

>>5139860
The less said about other saiyan quests the better, because I've also been extremely disappointed, but I don't really want to talk here about this and invite that kind of quest rivalry drama. I trust Wukong as I trust no other QM, and that's all I'm going to say on the matter.

It being a Dragon Ball quest is precisely why I made that off-handed comment. Namek is one year from now. The Cell games are five years after that. Trunks is born a year before and Goten is born right after. I think this, similar age to these two, is about the right timetable. Delay too much and and it'll be too late to talk about passing the torch (which I would absolutely vote for) because the kid might be too young to matter.

I think you're also vastly underestimating the time we'll spend in the quest before then. We're currently on thread six. We arrived on planet Temperus a bit before thread one ended. I doubt we're even going to get to Namek in this thread, and I also doubt Namek will take much less time than Temperus. Freeza is a more dangerous enemy than Lavos after all. So you're afraid we may have kids by thread 7, but I don't think there's a chance in hell of that happening before thread ten, twelve, or maybe even later. And before that, we'll have two months of space adventures before Namek, Namek itself, and then a few years of space adventures post-Namek. Isn't that enough childless going around, battling cool characters and doing cool stuff?

It's not an unreasonable timeframe by Dragon Ball standards either. Goku and Chi-Chi are a special case for many reasons, but they were married when Goku was 19 and Gohan was born when Goku was 20. Vegeta and Bulma are older but Trunks is born only three years after they meet and they are married only a year later despite Vegeta's saiyan autism. Krillin and Android 18 are married three years after they meet and Marron is born a year later, and Krillin is a pretty normal earthling with no saiyan autism to hinder his emotional development. Gohan and Videl, the most direct comparison to Rettace and Schala imho, are married when they are both 21 years old and Pan is born a year after as well. And if we go by Chrono Trigger, the only example that Rettace is going to know of for the time being, Crono and Marle meet at the beginning of the game and get married in the ending cinematic. The timeframe is unclear, but it can't be that long.

>>5139860
>>5139925
Rettace and Schala just met on top of that. Unless we get timeskips out the wazoo, we're not going to have any children running around. Rettace doesn't even have a house unless he crashes with Schala in the palace. Pretty sure that if it does happen and we do get kids, it'll have been a healthy amount of years in quest where Rettace and Schala can actually get to know eachother as people. And unlike the other guy, Rettace truly has genuinely autistic energy, the exact opposite of chad energy.

>>5139961
>>5139925
yeah sorry. i don't want to invite drama into this quest. it's just that kind of dumb fear i have, but mostly also because whenever people try to waifu schala, they do it in an unsaiyan way (wich to be honest, there is no mating ritual for them. all male saiyans only got mates because the females went after them. which is why rettace being so open about love is weird, since i see it as unsaiyan and anons just trying to waifu schala as fast as possible) and if chat doesn't actually care to pass the torch when the time comes, then i won't reee about it. Also, first born must be male or i riot.

>>5140005
I don't really see Rettace's and Schala's relationship as unsaiyan. No more than, say, Bardock's and Gine's. Rettace is a pretty atypical Saiyan anyway. He's not fighting for a good fight's sake, but to protect what he cares about, and that was true even before we met Schala. And the rest of the squad aren't Saiyan paragons either. Parzlee protecting and helping her sister instead of bullying her, or Scali marrying, living his life in peace and warning his children against what we could do when we woke up aren't typical Saiyan behaviours. Personally, I chalk it up to us all being from almost a century in the past, from when Saiyan society was healthier and before it calcified into the macho bullshit it became in its later years. But just because we're not a walking Saiyan stereotype that doesn't mean we're not a Saiyan. It just means we're a better kind of Saiyan.

>all male saiyans only got mates because the females went after them
You mean Goku and Vegeta? Goku was a literal retard who didn't even know what a girl was until what, age 12? And Vegeta's and Bulma's relationship is weird and mostly off-screen, but it had to have been mutual. Vegeta isn't a retard and they're both pretty stubborn.

>Also, first born must be male or i riot.
My torch is oiled and my pitchfork is sharpened. I'm with you.

>>5140005
>>5140042
I personally dislike kids in quests because they tend to lend to heavy character bloat, though I'm heavily impressed at Wukong's ability to balance so many characters so far so I'm not really all that worried about it.

>>5140005
There's also the fact that Schala is a shit tier waifu only being pushed by one fag. Parzlee and Khive are better.

>>5140092
I wouldn't say it was samefagging per se, but it was pretty weird just how hard Schala got pushed so fast, I don't personally see the appeal but I guess i'll warm up to her

>>5140103
It was literally out of nowhere. Suddenly everything Rettace did revolved around simping for Schala.

>>5140108
If I recall half of it might just be from the sheer eugenical shitposting that would happen from it, but it's not like that wouldn't happen from the other monkeys at this point. I really do think we should cool it though the last thread was a bit too heavy on simping for her proportionate to how little time we've spent together.

>>5140116
You know, I might actually have warmed up to Schala more if the simping wasn't super hard and full force constantly.
Khive and Parzlee still the best though.

>>5140042
Bardock and gine was the most unsaiyan couple, its weird for saiyans to be married, specially low class.
>Rettace is a pretty atypical Saiyan anyway
In the story rettace has followed a pretty saiyan personality, if not, he wouldn't be autistic
>He's not fighting for a good fight's sake
That is what he did with glenn in the last thread
>And the rest of the squad aren't Saiyan paragons either.
Parz and khive are literally descent of the pinacle of the race.one being a god saiyan and the other being an evil saiyan and both have been acting pretty saiyan like since the start
>.Personally, I chalk it up to us all being from almost a century in the past, from when Saiyan society
Saiyan society didnt change, they become worse true, but that is because they ended up killing the other occupants of planet plant but before that, it was stated we came from a training camp since childhood, so still the same
>n Saiyan society was healthier and before it calcified into the macho bullshit it became in its later years
Wait what? i know it was something of a plot point that saiyans women were looked down in this verse, but their society isn't macho, if not there wouldn't be woman warriors and their birth machine
> But just because we're not a walking Saiyan stereotype that doesn't mean we're not a Saiyan. It just means we're a better kind of Saiyan.
But that is want to be, i want to fight and fight for the fun. i also like to socialize and all, but saiyans are genetically ingrained to train and all to become stronger, also from before, rettace has been show as a smart saiyan, kinda like vegeta without an overwhelming pride but aside from that, we have been pretty saiyan till now.

>You mean Goku and Vegeta? Goku was a literal retard who didn't even know what a girl was until what, age 12? And Vegeta's and Bulma's relationship is weird and mostly off-screen, but it had to have been mutual. Vegeta isn't a retard and they're both pretty stubborn.

Still, it doesn't go with what i said, bulma went after vegeta, not the other way around

>My torch is oiled and my pitchfork is sharpened. I'm with you.
Well, we can at least agree in the most important part, the first born must be male

>>5140103
>>5140092
i wouldnt said it was samefagg, i am generally non caring about waifus. i just want to fight and murder frieza, go around space, maybe ruin babidi´s day. those types of things are the things which drew me to this quest. But i would support whatever waifu wins.

>>5140103
>>5140108
>>5140116
>>5140129
You know... We're not exactly routelocked. There hasn't been a date yet, unless I need to reread the entire quest history again. If there's really that many people who want to take a look at other options, there's still a chance I think.

>>5140330
Oh, I would like to look at different options but I didn't want to throw the thread into a waifu war when everyone seemed so sure on Schala, even if she's not my pick I wouldn't throw the thread into a fit over it you know?

>>5140330
>>5140333
I like Schala. I agree that maybe it's been a bit too fast but If there's waifu stuff, I'll pick her.

>>5140344
That's fair, but I think it would be nice just to let the other characters, including Schala, develop a bit before we just commit super hard. If we do end up falling for Schala it'll be a lot more organic and if we don't there'll be less mumblings from the crowd, I think.

>>5140351
Of course we should allow for other characters to develop before any huge commitments. Like in other quests, I prefer to go with what feels right in the flow of the story rather than pursuing any particular option and so far that's been Schala.

>>5140359
I somewhat disagree in the fact that a lot of the Schala interactions have come from the anons spontaneously kinda pushing it, Wukong's writing has certainly made it come naturally but from a meta sense, it feels a bit forced.

>>5140365
That's why I said that it's been a bit too fast, I think the setup in the struggle against Lavos was very good but both some parts of the festival and the characters constantly teasing it is what is making it feel forced, at least in my opinion.

>>5140330
I want to tease that fuckin' nerd Lucca about wanting to get a close look at our genes
She'll get a good look alright

>>5140395
They really are two nerds aren't they.

>>5140330
Shut your trap. Schala best girl.

>>5140400
Hold your horses, Romeo. I didn't say anything about Schala, just suggesting that we expand our options before speedrunning a relationship. Rettace and his squad are still reeling at the fact that their people, along with their home and heritage was erased from existence, along with the fact that they've been frozen in there and that we're out here for 80 years. The last thing I'd expect anyone to do, regardless of alien origin, is to immediately start banging the closest intelligent specimen.

Just sayin, we have priorities and shit, as well as figuring out what the fuck to do after we have Fried Lizard Dinner. And its not like we know exactly down to every detail how that's going to end up.

Also, I feel the thread so far is heavily underestimating Namek given the fact that the restraints of the normal canon timeline went out the window the second we got the time bird, even though we've influenced the events of canon very little there's still a chance that could've rippled out heavily.

>>5140422
>just suggesting that we expand our options before speedrunning a relationship
No. Schala won. Cope.

>>5140432
Ok. I dunno if it's genuine waifufaggotry or false flagging, but keep that energy for when the choice truly matters. Or don't, I don't have a stake in this.
>>5140429
If you discount the amount of time travel rules we broke with the Chrono Trigger gang, Rettace and his squad are living and breathing past their expected expiration date. I'm pretty sure this will have major consequences down the line, especially since goku saw us in otherworld.
I for one eagerly await Rettace's Vegeta-sized slice of humble pie when he gets down to Namek. He's been a right cocky little shit since he got the golden power, and a good ol' fashioned BTFO'ing should fix it real quick.

>>5140456
>spoiler
I'd say we've already got a taste to it given we got our ass handed to us by green Gohan of all people, but I don't think that would preclude a second helping

>>5140432
Either troilling or bad bait, it dosnt matter, but this type of shiet only allienates people from the quest

>>5140485
No. That was bait >>5140092 And you all bit it.

>>5140502
Bait or not the Schala stuff was a genuine talking point and we seemed to come to a fairly reasonable consensus on the matter, so I don't see what the issue is

>>5140502
It's not bait if it's true.

>>5140504
>so I don't see what the issue is
He has to push his waifu as hard as possible constantly to try and "lock them in" because he's scared someone else will get picked.

>>5140103
>>5140286
>samefagging
I wish Wukong would post the tallies of the votes when he starts writing, just so we all can see how overwhelming the support for Schala has been so far. To believe that it's been samefagging, and I'm not saying that you do, you'd have to believe that 3/4 of Awakening's players are a single samefag.

>>5140330
>There hasn't been a date yet, unless I need to reread the entire quest history again
You definitely need to reread the part after we beat Lavos, especially from when we stayed behind of the group to talk to Schala to ending up falling asleep next to her on the grass. And what happened on the next morning as well, especially her comforting us about the loss of our people, the hug, snapping us out of the hate-fuelled rampage we were about to go to. If that's not a routelock then I don't know what is.

>>5140422
I don't know anon. Saving Schala from a fate worse than death, finding comfort in each other after we've both lost so much and all the similarities, from the same kind of magic, to the same kind of loss? I think that's a really good basis for a romance.

>>5140429
That's a very good point. We know Raditz survived before we even met Goku. Who knows what else is going to change in this history?

>>5140504
I hope the consensus you're talking about is seeing the relationship between Rettace and Schala develop of the next years. I'd really hate for this quest to end due to a completely needless waifu war.

>>5140512
He? So you really think that 3/4 of the quest's players are a single samefag? How salty are you anon?

>>5140614
The consensus being was to overall calm down with the Schala waifu stuff, it was happening way too fast way too quickly when we barely know the girl, samefagging or not it was starting to feel a bit forced. No one wants the quest to die over a waifu war and I highly doubt wukong will even let it get to that point, but some people do have a problem with Schala and I think it's fine to air that kinda stuff, it's been pretty civil so far and there's no major hint of waifu warring, so I'd cool it with that.

>>5140619
>it was happening way too fast way too quickly when we barely know the girl, samefagging or not it was starting to feel a bit forced
I disagree, and it looks like I'm not the only one. I wasn't even the one who wrote most of the Schala-related write-ins, but I voted for them, I'm really happy with the direction we're going in that regard, and I will keep voting accordingly.

>there's no major hint of waifu warring, so I'd cool it with that.
Maybe not you, but the anon who first complained about Schala being a shit waifu definitely looks like he wants to start up something like that.

>>5140623
It didn't end up starting much shit, he laid out why he disliked it and it seemed fairly reasonable. No one can force anyone to vote on anything anon, and I'm happy that other people are enjoying parts of the quest but you can at least understand where people are coming from when they say the Schala stuff is happening rather fast, I understand your apprehension to a potential Waifu War but denying any potential like that just increases fervor against your waifu.

>>5140628
I don't really see any fervour against "my" waifu. I saw some reasonable points, which I think I addressed, and some not so reasonable ones. Past that, we're just talking about irreconcilable differences in opinion. I believe the pace of the romance with Schala is just right, but I can see where you're coming from. I won't really be upset if we don't keep voting for the same pace, as long as Schala keeps being the waifu. But an abrupt change to, for example, waifuing Parzlee and Khive together like that one anon wants, WILL trigger a waifu war as far as I'm concerned. And that's something I'd really prefer to avoid.

>>5140641
>I believe the pace of the romance with Schala is just right
Me too. Where is this antiSchala sentiment coming from all of a sudden? There was no pushback against her before.

>>5140614
Could be, theee are worse case of samefagging. Also schala also gets voted because some of us dont care about waifus so they just vote in agreement to the girl wich is being talked to

>>5140614
I think that's a really good basis for a romance.
Saiyans dont do romance

First, before anything else, you decided that you'd try to find any large readings of Ki around the area, going a little more in depth than just readings around the dinosaur's level of 15000. Obviously, with the exception of you and your allies, your dinosaur was the most powerful being in this jungle cavern. But... there were other power levels, ranging from 5000 all the way down to 50. None of those were really impressive enough on their own, even a hundred fighters with a power level of 5000 each would be as easy to defeat for you right now as waving your hand in their direction. No, you weren't really focused on the occasional animal with a higher than average power level, but... the power level that seemed to be fluctuating... if only slightly. As if it were trying to keep itself suppressed... could this be what it's like when somebody tries to forcibly suppress their Ki?

"Hold on... I think I can sense something... strange." It was odd, while it felt like they were trying to hide their Ki, it felt as if there was something else to the signature too, not related to their Ki... or even magic, from how the sensation felt. But what could it be that was hiding down here? "Everyone, follow me, we're gonna take my dinosaur to check it out." You started to walk back towards your dinosaur, prepared to cut a path through the jungle to make it a little easier on Schala to walk without having to be picked up and carried everywhere... it was probably a little embarrassing, to be the one person in the group who wasn't able to freely fly. Even Queen Zeal seemed to have mastered the magical form of flight... but while Schala probably also knew the spell, her relatively inferior reserves of magic energy would mean that it wouldn't be worth using it on herself. The ability to generate and process magic energy was a part of the body, so by that logic, training should be able to increase how much you could handle... though training methods like that were kind of beyond you.

"Your... dinosaur?" Magus asked in disbelief, and you shrugged. Clearly he hadn't been expecting you to have simply tamed one of the beasts. "Then... the source of the roaring we heard earlier... that was you?" He had managed to quickly put things together and worked out something that had probably been bothering him for a while.

"It was, yes. Why are you surprised? It was far weaker than me, and when I made it understand that, it was more than willing to follow whatever orders I gave it." You didn't want to get into the specifics of your telepathic abilities right now, so you gave Magus the condensed version of events. "Before we leave I want to go and check this odd Ki signature I can feel... it seems to be fairly low, but... I think that whoever is out there is trying to conceal themselves from us, and that they might also have... other powers." But if it wasn't magic, what could it have been? It didn't make any sense for it to be technology based either, especially because it was quite impossible to sense energy that didn't originate from a living being... at least for now, anyway. Thankfully, a scouter was able to remedy that somewhat... but after a quick check, you found that your scouter was unable to get any reading on the strange signature.

"A dinosaur is... one of the large beasts that are roaming around this jungle, right? I remember seeing a fossil of one on display in the kingdom at some point." Schala nodded to herself, somehow, the group had managed to avoid any sort of contact with the dinosaurs... either that, or Magus was simply slaughtering any that came close before they could present a threat. Queen Zeal looked similarly bemused about the dinosaurs, creatures that in their time were likely all considered to be extinct. "You managed to tame one?"

"It wasn't exactly difficult, especially not when you're as strong as I am." You boasted, though it wasn't your strength that allowed you to tame your beast, it was in fact your ability to continue to manipulate your Ki in new and unforeseen ways. To replicate telepathy through what effectively amounted to nothing but observation and a little luck on your part, well... it just came naturally to you, strangely enough. You had observed the technique before thanks to Kami, so you were aware of it existing, but... you supposed that you just got lucky in replicating it so quickly. "Anyway, follow me, it's this way." You started to carve a path through the jungle, using a blade of Ki to destroy any overhanging foliage on your way back to the dinosaur.

After a few minutes of brisk movement through the jungle, you had made your way back to your dinosaur, who was as yet still unnamed. It looked at you for a moment as you approached, then at your entourage, before it bowed its head. "My, you really did manage to team the beast, didn't you? It's acting like some sort of tamed house cat!" Zeal remarked as she witnessed the act from the dinosaur, it clearly hadn't lost any of its respect for you, even animalistic as it was. Her gaze then moved to the cat that was clinging onto Magus' shoulder... had he really brought his cat along for this journey? Why? More importantly, why was it so laid back about staring down a gigantic dinosaur?

"That's right, Ayla... would you mind riding on the back with Zeal and Magus? We're going to go find the Reptite Leader, I believe." It was strange to think that even though the Reptites had descended into feral savagery, there was still something that had the mind to not only have access to Ki, but also the knowledge of how to hide it from other people... of course, it wasn't good enough to hide from you.

"OK. Find Reptite leader." Ayla half-agreed and half-commanded you to do... well exactly what you were already doing, and happily climbed onto the dinosaur as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Magus sighed before floating upwards to take a seat on the back of the large beast, and Zeal hesitated for even longer before she followed suit, clearly not used to the idea of traveling on a creature like a dinosaur.

"Schala, would you mind taking a seat on the head with me?" You offered the girl your hand, she quickly took your hand and with a wordless gesture, you told your dinosaur to bring its head to the floor, which was obliged quickly, and you helped her climb the side of the beast's head. While you could've just flown up... you couldn't just continually treat her like a princess... well, ignoring the fact that she technically was a princess... though considering the kingdom she was a princess was didn't exist it... oh never mind.

Regardless, the two of you managed to eventually take a seat on the head of the dinosaur, and with a brief telepathic command issued through placing your palm atop the head of the beast, you directed it towards the strange source of Ki, having it stampede at massive velocity towards your destination, flattening anything in its path. You didn't particularly care about anything else that might be down here, and if a few Reptites get trampled underfoot, that wasn't your problem at all.

As the dinosaur smashed its way through the forest, you could feel that Schala's grip on your hand was tighter than before, obviously this sort of high adrenaline action was still something she wasn't used to at all, though if she was really going to be traveling with you in the future, this level of destruction was absolutely nothing compared to what may come in the future. You didn't know just what sort of enemies you'd face in the future, but... if the universe continued to surprise you, you had no doubt that they'd be even more powerful than Lavos, or even Glenn!

Of course, the dinosaur rampaged far too noisily and quickly for you to have anything even resembling a conversation with Schala, but you sort of expected that was going to happen anyway, you weren't exactly going for a quiet approach here, and the sound of wood rending and branches being obliterated was simply too much to have a conversation over without shouting.

Soon enough though you sensed that the Ki signature was close, so you slowed the dinosaur's charge. "Hold on I think that they're close. I don't know if they're aware of us..." But that massive dinosaur smashing through the forest should probably have given them some idea that something was out there. As you kept proceeding forwards, you eventually came onto a clearing... which contained a single building. It was a fairly large building made out of materials that looked far too complicated for these Reptites to have been behind the creation of.

"What is that place? Why is there a building here?" Schala was just as confused as you were, clearly hoping that you'd have some sort of answer... which you unfortunately didn't. Still... whatever was inside this building, they... probably weren't dangerous, but it might help to be on the safe side.

>>What will Rettace do?
>Approach the house alone.

This is her bonus mission, so it makes sense that we take her.
Also, what's going on with the anti-Schala stuff? Where's it coming from?

>>5140866
>>Have everyone approach the house together.
>>5140882
it's not anti schala. at least not for me, but i am getting tired of anons simping for her, before she appeared, rettace didn't care about relationships. i get hype from the future battle arcs not talking about schala, so i first commented to anon that i found it weird that he was starting talking about marrying her when in the first thread rettace had show a clear discontent with the idea of marriage.
Basically, i am tired of all votes being basically simp for her when i just want to fight in this quest.
>>5140432
>>5140400
And then there are this type of anons wich just annoy me with their waifu faggotery
>>5140092
This one too, i thought it was too negative for an opinion, i also dislike the simping anons did for her when it shouldn't exist.

>>5140900
Yeah, talk of marriage is a little much rn.
We've known her for like a day.
I think when we actually train her into a fighter, it'll be better.
We've got a timeskip coming up.
Did we ever come to a conclusion about what Rettace's silver power was?

>>5140906
never.
Also, i hate it when anons says we had a big connection bc she feels our pain, but they ignore the twins when they are suffering as much as rettace. that is clearly waifufaggotery wich i dislike, the one wich ruins other characters interaction for me.

>>5140912
>the twins
But being Saiyans, their immediate reaction to loss is rage or complete shutdown.
Schala was the only one Rettace can actually talk to about it.
Rettace being as smart and emotionally developed as he is leads me to think his secret is that he's unknowingly half-tuffle.
Baby Vegeta had silver hair when transformed.

>>5140915
not really, there are other people we could talk to. she was the nearest though
>Rettace being as smart and emotionally developed as he is leads me to think his secret is that he's unknowingly half-tuffle.

I hope not

>>5140921
>other people we could talk to
Who?
Edgelord Demon LARPer Magus?
Literal demon Mayonne?
Cavewoman Ayla?
Silent Protagonist Crono?
Genius Autist Lucca?
Literally a robot?
Crono's waifu?
Stoic Knight Glenn?
The Half-Demon twins?
Schala was the one who told us about the vision in the first place, and also (aside from Magus) was the only one with prior experience of losing everything.

>I hope not.
I think Rettace isn't your average Saiyan, too much evidence against it.
I doubt we're a Broly-type super saiyan.

>>5140882
I'm not really anti-schala as much as I was saying just to slow the hey down with all the schala stuff, it came really hard and fast when we barely knew her I didnt want to go for a waifu war or anything just wanted to let things play out for a bit.

>have everyone approach the house together

>>5140866
>>Approach the house with a partner (Who?)
Ayla

>>5140945
>it came really hard and fast when we barely knew her
From the posts we've gotten in response, the schalafags are going to keep simping as hard as possible.We're saiyan simp quest now.

>>5140935
>I think Rettace isn't your average Saiyan, too much evidence against it.

He has show being as smart as vegeta. nothing so outside of it, stop saying he is a mutant or something weird

>>5140956
Even though I agree with your points anon I feel like antagonizing people that like schala will just hurt everyone, I think wukong's writing is endearing me to schala I just dont think I'm at the point everyone else is at yet.

>>5140957
>as smart as Vegeta
Veggie is canonically a genius among Saiyans.
And Rettace is clearly smarter than the Prince of Jobbers.

>>5140957
While comparing retrace to normal sayians is a bad comparison due to the completely different cultural environment he grew up with, it's pretty reasonable to assume we arent a wholly normal specimen past that, hell given we broke history even that is enough to qualify us as abnormal much less the wacky silver stuff.

>>5140956
You're just making yourself look retarded as you attempt to sow the seeds of discord.
Stop trying to cause a waifuwar by being excessively antagonistic, please.
Did you come from that other Saiyan quest looking to cause conflict or something?
Because if so, that's not cool.

>>5140959
See, I wish I could feel like that. If they weren't spergs and took it slow, I feel like I could have warmed up to her.
Instead they pushed full force until the entire quest revolved around her, which makes me hate her.

>>5140972
>Anon, d-did you come from Frieza Simp Quest? Where they suck Frieza's Cock constantly with the force of a thousand suns? T-that's not cool!
And you say I look retarded.

>>5140974
What a weird outlook.
It's only one anon that seems really into Schala, I didn't see much in the way of support for the other girls either.
>>5140976
Guess you just like trying to cause conflict in general.

>>5140978
I think the sayian twins are cool but more in a platonic "I want to build them up and watch them go far" kinda way rather than an actual attraction, as a prior anon has said before relationships would break the cool team dynamic the three have(though I would like to see it explored a bit more since it was on the back burner a bit ever since we started the CT arc due to being split up and the now bigger team, I hope the larger cast doesnt diminish the squad relationship the three have.)

>>5140978
There use to be some. Then the Schala Simping started out of nowhere and was pushed suspiciously hard and fast on every vote in the quest.
Then every update revolved around her. Rettace instantly morphed from a tactical saiyan warrior to spilling his spaghetti constantly as he acts like a bashful schoolgirl and the characters I like and want to interact with get pushed out of the quest almost completely, aside from a moment where they freak out and we spend a few posts calming them down.

>>5140984
I personally just went for the first waifu that popped up as a legitimate candidate in hopes that it would prevent a waifu war.
My personal choice would've been Lucca, but I'm perfectly fine with it being Schala.
I also think that our allies getting those power-ups is the prelude to them being extremely relevant in the next arc.
>>5140978
When we get to space, we'll be able to have Squad Missions again I think.
I don't think anybody is retarded enough to bring the people less suited for fighting into Freeza's death beaming range.

>>5140992
Second part meant for >>5140982

>>5140992
That makes a lot of sense, though my current biggest fear with the whole namek business is the massive unknown that is king cold. Cooler is scary enough but cold is a massive outlier and the possibility of him showing up concerns me slightly.
As an addendum I would like to work on the demon twins from both a meta and in universe sense, the former being that I dont want them to fall into the trap of never being developed because no one interacts with them and no one interacting with them because they're not developed, and they both have a lot of flaws mainly from a lack of team play in quest.

>>5140992
See, I'd like to think that they won't just be benched. But my bet is that they vote to take Schala into the training box so they can simp for her while training off the penalty and that's all the interaction that will exist.
As an addendum I would have preferred Lucca to Schala, honestly.

>I don't think anybody is retarded enough to bring the people less suited for fighting into Freeza's death beaming range.
You have a far more optimistic view of the average /qst/ anon then I've ever seen. Ever.

>>5140997
I'd like to work with the demon twins too. But it feels like they've been relegated to eternal benchwarmer. They've shown up less then Khive and Parzlee.
Honestly, for as much as I like the CT Arc (outside the schalafag simping), it kind of removed Rettace's original crew from the quest and I hate that so damn much.

>>5141001
I wouldnt really say "removed from the quest" as that other anon said spooky shit is happening with the aliyah twins and the demon twins were introduced just last arca it's perfectly fine narratively to wait till a bit later to develop them while rounding out the core cast a bit. Wukong has given us multiple hooks to take and seems fairly knowledgeable about keeping track of what he wants to do with characters so I wouldnt count any of the squad out just yet.

>>5140997
King Cold depends entirely on whether he has a third and forth form if he's a threat or not.
If he does, we're in trouble.
>>5141001
Training with Schala will be giving her the basics before sparring with people who can actually spar with Rettace, hopefully. Schala will be better off practicing magic with Zeal and training with people closer to her level instead of the guy who's so much stronger than her it's not funny.
Training with Spekkio would be good for her though.
I want the demon twins to do more too, seems like they have a lot of potential being wasted.

>>5141003
We have to bite those hooks though, which nobody wants to do because it'll take time away from simping for Schala.

>>5141005
>If he does, we're in trouble.
INB4 Golden Fifth Form King Cold.

>Training with Schala will be giving her the basics
See, I don't even want to give her the basics and just let someone else do it. I am that fucking tired of everything now revolving around Schala. Too bad we can't bring Spekkio with us, honestly.

>I want the demon twins to do more too, seems like they have a lot of potential being wasted.
A lot of characters do.

>>5141013
I mean, I guess it might be better for Parz or Khive to give her the basics.
Rettace sucked at teaching the last time he tried.
Might have something to do with thinking everyone can grasp things as quickly as him.

Getting a little off-topic here.
Personally I'm looking forward to meeting Goku and Gohan on Namek.
And to Lucca meeting Bulma.
I hope Bulma gets her own back on Lucca shit talking her future self's time machine somehow.

>>5141047
Hopefully Lucca and Bulma meeting kind of kicks Bulma into high gear. She kind of lapses into regular rich woman at the end, hopefully a rival sparks her back into the crazy science stuff.

>>5141058
If we go off Super, she literally just keeps the spare time machine in storage and never once bothers to try to fix it or research it properly, despite it being the one of the greatest pieces of technology to exist in the multiverse.

>>5141060
Yeah, she doesn't even try hard for the science competition in Super.

>>5141066
Pretty sure even Pilaf btfos her at one point.

>>5141067
Pilaf btfos everyone in two timelines, which is fucking hilarious. Most based DB villain.
Speaking of, I hope we get the young pilaf crew here, I actually really like them.

>Approach with Ayla.

Let's see.

>>5140866
>Approach the house with a partner (Who?)
Ayla. She's the only one who cares about this, really. We should let everyone else outside, with Magus, Zeal and the dino there to protect Schala if something happens to go wrong.

>>5140842
>>5140882
I'm not really sure where this is coming from either. There certainly wasn't any real opposition when it came to Schala before this thread. There was no contested vote to justify the accusations of samefaggotry. She won all related votes near unanimously, and anyone can go back to check.

>>5140900
>but i am getting tired of anons simping for her
I find this a weird complaint to make right after we sent her along with her family and we had that good fight with Glenn. Where exactly is that simping for Schala? What would you like to have happened differently?
>i found it weird that he was starting talking about marrying her
You asked about our post-Namek plans. Or was it a different anon? No one said anything about marrying her tomorrow, but my post-Namek plans include marrying Schala and having kids in a few years. Or would you prefer Rettace to stay a childless volcel?

>>5140915
Rettace being half-tuffle has been speculated before. Silver energy, hatred, his emotional development, him frequently geeking out over science. I'm not 100% on this theory, but I can't see any other likely alternative at this point.

>>5141003
Pretty much this. And the squad has gotten more character development lately than they did at any time in the past, and that was after Schala came into the picture. This is yet another reason I find the sudden complains about her baffling.

>>5141005
With the gates closing, I don't think we'll have access to Spekkio anymore.

>>5141047
Them and I'm looking forward to meeting Vegeta too.

I'm getting more and more certain you're just trolling at this point and you actually want to cause a waifu war out of nowhere just for the shits and giggles. This quest was surprisingly drama-free until now, I guess it was a matter of time until we attracted our own shitposting autist.

>>5141079
And of course you show up to ruin an otherwise civil discussion so you can go full simp some more. Good job.

>I guess it was a matter of time until we attracted our own shitposting autist.
I mean, you're already here.

And so it begins. We've done it now. GG no re

>>5141076
I was only able to voice my thoughts on the schala stuff now because I only just got caught up with the quest. I wouldnt have brought up my grievances with the speed of it if the other anon didnt anyways, as I've said before I'm completely fine with schala as a character I just dont feel for her as hard as some other anons seem to be just yet.

>>5141085
From the responses in this thread, it feels like a lot of anons don't really feel for her too strongly. They just decided to not fight against the bandwagoning and like you, are only voicing their dissatisfaction now that it's been brought up.

Honestly, my main thought is to deal with the spooky shit with the sayian sisters asap, since we have no idea how long they'll be out or how khive is going to act with her powers, if either of them is unable to learn how to control their powers by the time we get to namek it leaves them a massive liability and I really dont want to bench them since they deserve to fight frieza as much as we do. The main issue is we have very little idea of what we're dealing with aside from vague legends, but I assume time bird can maybe help with that because otherwise I'm not sure who we can go to other than vegeta maybe

>>5141135
I doubt even Vegeta would be able to help. We might have to put a general "Don't use that shit" on them like we did with the silver shit of Rettace's.
The only person I can think of who'd actually be able to help is Chronoa.

>>5141135
I agree anon. We should check up on them the moment we return. As for their powers, I don't see what we can do or how Kachi-Kachi might help. This is unprecedented territory. I think the best thing to do is give them space and let them figure it out on their own as best they can.

>>5141137
The reason I think that wouldnt realy work is if one or the other takes a fatal shot in battle it's highly likely the other will go uncontrollable due to the emotional strain, while that's not q scenario that we would like to happen at all its still something I want us to keep at top priority. I dont think chroanoa will be all that keen on sharing spoilers unless time breakers are involved, which in are case are a FAR greater threat due to the lack of any organized response against them. Though if things get too bad we should be able to force her hand, but I wouldnt want to put that on her given she has her own history to deal with and she has no obligation to help us, only her want to.

>>5141150
Yeah, I know she has her own shit. I'm not even sure if we can contact her anymore, the one time we did seemed to be because we were in Lavos space.
But seeing as it already happened for us, it wouldn't be spoilers anymore at least. So she might be more willing to actually help.

>>5141151
>I'm not even sure if we can contact her anymore
She gave us a single feather from Toki-Toki, to be used in case of emergency. I don't think this counts as an emergency though.

>>5140866
>Have everyone approach the house together.

>>5140970
no, what did he do to show that?

>>5141076
anon, There was an anon already discussing children, even before beating frieza. That is simping

>>5141242
Do you mean actually having children before Freeza? Going to Namek with a baby? I'm pretty sure I've never seen someone say that, or if someone did and I've forgotten, it was nowhere near to the extent of influencing anything.

Or do you mean discussing now, before Freeza, having children in a few years? That has definitely happened, but where's the harm in that? It's Dragon Ball, children are inevitable. Is there any reason not to discuss future plans?

>>5141250
You asked if there was simping done recently, that is simping to me, imagining having babies when we literally MEET her yesterday which is just tiresome to my psyche.

For the Schala thing, I don't mind and i'll probably vote for the majority pick that was already demonstrated in previous threads. It's the speedrunning to a relationship that irks me something fierce. Like damn slow down Rettace just realized he lost his entire race and shit. I want to get to the pressing matters instead of dwelling on waifutism. I can see a huge spergout over choosing or whatever in the future, but that's a problem for the future.

That being said do we kill Frieza quickly or slowly

>>5141299
Try to kill him quickly, fail because overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer, have to kill him slowly over a long and gruelling fight. That seems the most realistic way for the fight to go.

The real question is what to do with his pelt. Coat or rug?

>>5141299
You have to remember it's not just "our" decision, Khive and Parzlee deserve just as much reason to kill Frieza as we do. Also as that other anon said I see zero reasons to be confident about the situation on Namek, We're in an entirely different history here and we can't rely on meta-knowledge for events aside from the broad strokes and even that might change later.

>>5141299
>That being said do we kill Frieza quickly or slowly
Get our ass kicked for 50 episodes and then wait for Goku to save us.

>>5141299
slowly, i want to tan his hide and make a cape

>>5141326
Yeah ofc Khive and Parzlee are getting their kills in. We'll split the lizard skin between the 3 of em.
>>5141299
>>5141331
Hm, all good decisions. Personally I thought that boots would be nice, walking around the galaxy with emperor class designer shoes. As for how to obtain said boots, I think all 3 saiyans should break the lizard bitch at the same time. If he manages to use *that* form, eviscerate him. But I'd prefer a body.
>>5141330
Seeing how Raditz is running around, and Goku still died, he might need OUR help.

"Alright, I want everyone except Ayla to stay here... I don't know what's inside this building, and if we're walking into a trap, I don't want everyone walking into it." You spoke to your allies as you looked at the ramshackle looking building. The very fact that something like this existed down here at all was a cause for concern. The Reptites as they were now didn't even look intelligent enough to construct something like this, so... you had absolutely no idea what exactly you were walking into.

"Right! Ayla go! Beat Reptite!" Ayla pounced off the back of the dinosaur a few moments before you jumped down to the ground yourself. No need endangering everyone for this, you didn't like not knowing what your enemy was, or what they were capable of doing. The scouter was something of a god-send when it came to not being surprised, though there was a limit to what it could record, and required just a small amount more focus than simply using your ability to sense Ki. You remained on your guard as you approached the hut, making sure that there were no traps or anything on the ground, though your precaution seemed unnecessary, the path was clear. Of course, Ayla wasn't exactly being cautious, though she was remaining behind you nonetheless.

When you reached the entrance to the house, you put a blade of Ki around your hand, prepared to deal with any ambush that might've been prepared for you upon entering, but... again, no such ambush occurred. "What is going on here...?" You remarked to yourself as you walked into the center of the room, the floor seemed to be made out of wood, and there was some sort of furry animal pelt covering the majority of the floor... upon walking into the center of the room, you felt the floor give way underneath you and Ayla, and... well, neither of you fell. "OK, this wasn't funny the first time somebody tried to do it to me, but seriously, does everybody in this era think that pitfall traps are the height of an ambush or something?" You were honestly kind of annoyed. "Come on Ayla let's find the joker who thought this was a good idea."

"Reptite trap fail! Hahaha!" Ayla at least found the situation amusing, but you didn't plan on sticking around as you descended down the trap anyway, it was a fairly long chute that opened out into what looked like a large circular chamber of stone... with some sort of ritual altar in the middle of it? What the hell was this place?

A reptilian sounding voice started echoing about the room. "You! You come here, foolsss! Reptite remember you, Ayla!" Oh OK, what the hell was going on now? Why did the mystery voice know who Ayla was. "For millionsss of years... we have sssuffered... thisss life underground, degrading our ssspecies! But... I wasss born!" The voice sounded like they were about to reveal themselves, but they simply didn't... smart.

"Ayla knew Reptite was still threat! Never trust Reptite!" The logic was primitive, but sound.

"How on earth do you know who we are, anyway?" You crossed your arms as you tried to sense the location of the being communicating with you. Annoyingly though, they were better at disguising themselves than you first thought, the entire area was suffused with Ki, any they were hiding themselves somewhere within it... obviously not in this stone chamber though.

"Ah, the first scourge from the ssstars! I remember you too! The beassst that heralded the dessstruction of the Reptitesss!" Huh, guess they didn't get your name, though you were really starting to get annoyed by the existence of Reptites in general now, and were strongly considering just blasting the entire area until nothing but ashes remained.

"Azala... obviously, she never told you foolsss... but the leader of the Reptitesss... they are born with the knowledge of their ancestors! That you two would appear before me... it isss an omen! The Reptites will rissse again... after I defeat you!" Oh brilliant, looks like you're gonna get in a second exercise session today, you've been wanting to reassert your power since you lost to Glenn about an hour or two ago on the top of that mountain, and some uppity Reptite trying to kill you would be just the thing you needed.

"Rise again, huh? From how it looks to me, you're a hermit, and the remaining Reptites in existence are barely more than animals." You insulted the species, and you could actual feel the seething rage that the Reptite was barely holding back. "Also, how exactly are you thinking you're going to defeat either of us if you're just going to hide away like a cowardly little lizard?"

"Like thisss, fool!" Suddenly, a tremendous screaming pain erupted in your head, as if your mind itself was being attacked! You nearly fell to a knee from the sudden burst of pain, but... after a few seconds, the burst of pain disappeared, and you were back on your feet, though Ayla hadn't fared nearly as well as you, having collapsed to the floor. "What?! Why... why are you still on your feet?!" The voice seemed startled that you hadn't been taken out by the attack. A mental assault? What a joke.

"Cheap trick, now how about you come out and fight me, before I lose my temper and decide that this jungle cavern would look better as a magma pool?" You were pissed. You weren't letting it show right now, but... that attack had really pissed you off, having managed to bypass your normal defenses and attempt to attack your mind... you were lucky that you managed to resist it, otherwise you'd have been beaten without a fight!

"Fight you? Now... why would I do that?" The voice regained their confidence, as you heard a noise behind you. "When I can have Ayla crush you for me!? Now, die Scourge from the Stars!" You tried to leap out of the way of the attack that you felt coming, but you were much too slow, and you were smashed into the side of the chamber. "Hahahaha! Yessss! Yesss! Those humans... their natural power! Of course it needed a far greater mind to bring it out of them!" You got back to your feet, and looked at Ayla, her stance was unnatural, her body was strained with power, and a sinister red aura crawled off of her body... what the hell happened to her? She was... well, she was a lot stronger than you were right now, too!

>>What will Rettace do?!

>>5142013
Rettace isn't fucking around today, he's learning his lesson about hubris very quickly.

>>5142136
I feel like every time we've gotten cocky we've eaten shit in some way, good to learn the lesson early lest we get vegeta'd.

"Sorry about this one, Ayla." You sighed as you looked at your rampaging ally. You'd already had to deal with one of your allies going berserk today, and you weren't happy about having to deal with it once again. "Hrah!" A quick shout was all you needed as you brought out the power of a Super Saiyan, and stared at Ayla for a moment. While you normally would've enjoyed the chance to have a battle that pushed you to your normal limits, you weren't so heartless as to use you mind controlled allies as a way to test your strength.

Ayla pounced towards you once again, but it was almost as if she was moving in slow motion to you, and you simply stepped aside from her attack before quickly tapping her on the back of the neck with the side of your hand, with just enough force to send her crashing to the floor, unconscious, but not enough that it would actually cause damage. You frowned as you looked at her, disappointed that you had to resort to taking such actions against the woman. "No...! What... how do you have sssso much power?!" The Reptite who had controlled Ayla demanded an answer from you, and you just remained silent as you used your heightened powers to search for them...

After a few seconds of focus, you got a read on a bizarre abnormality in the surrounding Ki. "There you are." You spoke with a smirk as you dashed forwards, crashing through multiple meters of dirt and rock as you rushed towards the Ki signature that you had locked onto faster than they could react to. Eventually after you had tunneled your way through the obstacles in your way, you found yourself standing in another chamber, smaller than the one you had just 'fought' Ayla in, and backed against a wall you could see your target... a Reptite far more familiar in appearance to the Reptites of this planet's past was clutching a wooden staff of some variety as they looked at you. "Surprised that your little trap didn't work? Where's all your confidence gone? Just a moment you were talking about how you were going to restore the Reptite Race, weren't you?" You took a step towards your target as you gathered Ki around your hand, primed to execute the Reptite.

"Wait! Ssstop! Please!" The Reptite finally spoke as you started to approach them, and they threw down their weapon. "It... I didn't want to attack you either... but... you need to underssstand... I've got... millionsss of yearsss of memories from my ancessstors, and each of them came to resssent Ayla more than the last! I didn't ssseek you out, and..." They were now begging for their life, how predictable. "Do you have any idea what it's like, to watch your entire race sink into becoming nothing more than animals, while all your attempts to resolve things failed... for millions of years!?" They actually seemed to be gaining their confidence back now, and even took a few steps towards you.

"You attacked me unprovoked, and controlled my friend, and tried to have her kill me." You crossed your arms, dismissing the blade of Ki for just a moment. You hadn't decided whether or not you were going to kill this Reptite yet. They had surrendered though, and if they tried something, you'd take off their head the moment they did.

"You came to my home to kill me! I did all I wasss able to defend myssself! For all I knew, you had come to rid the world of the Reptitesss once and for all!" There was no longer any of that bravado or confidence in their voice that they had a minute ago, but a different sort of confidence instead, one that allowed the Reptite to face certain death without flinching back. "Or is that not why you came? To finish what Lavos started?"

>>What will Rettace say?
>"It wasn't the plan, but it's a great idea. Goodbye."
>"You Reptites represent an existential threat to the Humans who live on this planet."
>"I might've spared you, but you made a terrible mistake in controlling one of my friends like that."
>"It's not... but I'll leave your fate up to Ayla to decide on."

"Normally I'd think nothing of blowing you away for controlling my friends and attacking me. But...I know what it's like to lose my race and the rage and frustration that builds up after that. Especially after ages. From what I've seen the rest of your kind of no harm to anyone in their current state, but it has to be infuriating to be the only one here self-aware enough to form sentences. If your hate won't let you exist on this world with the humans, why not come with us. See what the stars hold for the last reptite."

>>5142524
>"It's not... but I'll leave your fate up to Ayla to decide on."

>While you wait for ayla to wake up, try to contact magus´s group to ask for their opinion and if there is a way to help his race
>>5142537
I normally agree but i dont know if it would accept out of resentment and attack the weakest members, if what he did to ayla he did to others, he could take out the weaker members, i say we let him live but ask if magus knows any way to make it so that their specie does not attack humans again? In any case, let us speak with the rest of the members to ask their opinions.

>>5142571
Possibly, but if he does we'll just kill him right there. Especially if we're in Super Saiyan.

>>5142574
i still dont wish to risk lucca. She is the most important of our crew members, in fact her security is as high as schala. since she is the one who can make our ship and repair it and schala is the one we choose to be supreme kai of time. Then there is khive who is a healer and should not be incapacitated or we risk injuries till we get in the ship again

>>5142524
>"It wasn't the plan, but it's a great idea. Goodbye."
It mindcontrolled Ayla with a snap of its fingers. Ayla is the strongest of Crono's group after Glenn. She's the third strongest person we know, after us and Glenn, actually. Even if it behaves for now for fear of us killing it, what happens after we leave in ten months? It'll be able to mind-control Crono and Marle and genocide the humans. This reptite is too dangerous to let live. And we can't bring it with us either, or we'll have to be looking over our shoulders forever. What happens if we trust it, bring it with, and it decides to start mindcontrolling people while we're fighting Freeza? We'll be utterly fucked.

>>5142594
This Reptite seems to be all psychic ability and physically weak though and if Lucca has a prism helm, she should be protected. Not sure what gear the Chrono crew has. Khive is pretty damn strong too, like she's a healer, but she's also a saiyan.
I also just really feel like Rettace would sympathize with the Reptite, since he found out about the destruction of the saiyans recently and the feelings brought about by that and it pretty much has millions of years of the same thing built up.

>>5142609
I agree that rettace would normally be sympathetic, but not after said person tried to mind control him and a close friend, if his plan worked we could have seriously injured or killed several of our party members and thats not something we can just ignore. We're more thoughtful than other sayians but we are not a saint.

>>5142607
Agreed. Can't trust a two-faced mind control wizard. There's no telling what he'll do if his "ancestors" start freaking out again and he tries to kill our friends. As cool as a reptilian ally would be, it can't be this guy. He's an absolute security hazard just waiting to cause grief, and if he gets his grimy voodoo magic on Parzlee, we're all kinds of fucked.

Make it believable next time

Well, my laptop is actually disintegrating as I post this, so if I disappear for a few days, then it's probably just that.
I'll be buying a new one shortly.

"It's not, no. But after this... I feel that Ayla should be the one who gets to decide your fate." You crossed your arms as you looked at the Reptite. You hadn't even bothered to get a name for the cowering reptile, but you didn't exactly care to ask, either. They had already burned any bridges that they could've made with you the moment that they tried to take control of your mind and successfully took control of Ayla's mind. Their reason behind why they acted was at least some sort of justification for the sudden attack, even if it would've made far more sense to ask questions first and attack later. "What was that attack, anyway... where you tried to take control of me?" You were honestly quite intrigued by how they had attacked you, it felt somewhat similar to your own telepathic abilities, but it had obviously been weaponized to a tremendously lethal degree.

"It'sss... I usssed my mental powersss to attempt to take control of you both. Though it ssstilll needsss some work... it was originally created by one of my ancessstors about four hundred years ago..." The Reptite nodded their head as they recalled the events. "They wished to control not the humansss... but the other Reptitesss... they were planning to control the entire remaining Reptite population and attempt to drag them out of the sssavagery our people had descended to... but... it was a failure, jussst the same as it was the lassst thousssand times one of my ancestors attempted to bring salvation." The Reptite seemed upset as they recalled the history that had happened through the eyes of somebody else. "That technique... it works better on those with less... mental capability." That would explain why it failed to control you, but was so successful on Ayla. "The stronger the will of a target, the harder it isss to control them." Unfortunate, because you had never seen Ayla as particularly weak willed at all, though if it were to do with mental aptitude in addition to willpower... you could see why it could have worked on her.

"Why did it fail...? The attempt to use the ability to control minds to save the Reptites race?" It was such a powerful sounding technique, why waste it on something like this?

"Well... the technique isss only sssuccessssful on the... weaker minded, and when it was usssed on the Reptitesss... it wasss hopelesss... the technique requires focusss... and upon it wearing off... the Reptitessss would just tear whatever they had built to ssshreds. But... my memoriesss of that era are incomplete... I only have memories up to the point that my ancestor had their firssstborn... and what happened back then isssss.... a sssecret lost to me... if my ancessstor ever perfected the technique... I do not know."

"So... it's a mostly useless technique, that can only control somebody for...?" You needed to know just how useful this technique actually was at controlling over people, it had only managed to control Ayla, but that didn't mean it was any less dangerous.

"It doesn't really have a limit in how long it works for... but the ussser needs to focusss on keeping it active..." The Reptite answered, and they seemed to be telling the truth. "So I can alssso break the control myssself... but being knocked unconssscious is also enough to free sssomebody under the effect of the ssspell... Ayla will be fine, but... I mussst admit that I was not exsspecting her to have power hidden within her body..." It was odd that Ayla had some pseudo-transformation, but you assumed it must've just been something inherent to the ancient humans of this planet, a primal fighting instinct that was drawn upon only in times of true desperation that brought out the true power of the body.

"Well, we're going back to Ayla now, and if I find that you're lying, I'm going to hit you so hard that your ancestors will feel it." You wondered for a moment if it would be possible to take a quick hop back in time to actually carry out your threat, but soon thought against it. "Follow me, and if I even think you're planning something, you're dead." Just because you were deferring the judgment of the Reptite to Ayla, it didn't mean you were about to show them any mercy if they tried to escape that judgment.

The Reptite followed in silence as you walked back through the tunnel you had bored through the terrain, back to the central stone chamber that you defeated Ayla in. The woman was slowly rising to her feet again, and looked at you and the Reptite following you, her expression turning from one of curiosity to one of regret. "Sorry attack. Didn't mean." Ayla apologized for her being controlled and you shook your head.

"Don't worry, this Reptite here was the one responsible for taking control of you. But I'm going to let them make their case before you and let you decide what we do about them." You had already heard what the Reptite would use in their defense, and it really all hinged on whether Ayla was feeling more merciful than you were. While you didn't care either way whether they lived or died, you understood that even if their ability to control minds wasn't as powerful as you feared it might be, they were still quite a significant threat to the humans of the planet.

"Ok. Say why." Ayla was brief, clearly she wanted to get to the bottom of what had happened, and determine for herself whether this Reptite was a real threat or not..

"My name isss... Azala... I come from a long line of Reptitesss... each of usss inherited the name of our predecessor. I know you from the memoriesss of the firssst Azala..." Ah, so they shared the name of that other Reptite, did they? Made some sense, you guessed... but did that make them male or female? You didn't care enough to ask. "Each sssuccessive member of my line inherited the memoriesss of their parent... and that'sss why I hated you sssoooo much... but how... do you yet live?" Oh right, they would want to know that, considering it's been millions of years from their perspective.

"Long story, we had to kill Lavos, and that led to some weird distortions in time... just don't think about it too much." You doubted that Ayla could give a satisfying explanation as to what had happened, even compared to your massively shortened version.

"Lavosss isss dead? The one who was prophecised to destroy this world... slain?" Azala asked, clearly stunned by the revelation that the monster that the Reptites believed would end the world was dead, though thanks to having become a Super Saiyan, you could kill Lavos any day of the week! Lavos was a powerful foe... and his abilities were powerful, but now, you imagined that Ayla or Glenn would be able to stand against Lavos and potentially defeat him all by themselves... Glenn especially... of course, you doubted any of you would stand a chance against Lavos before you used the Chrono Trigger to stop him, even with the powers you had now.

"Yeah, I killed him yesterday, actually. But we're getting off-topic." You answered in an almost casual manner. "I died during that fight too, but... I got better." You were mostly just talking to confuse Azala at this point.

"Sssso the first ssscourge wasn't a scourge... but a sssavior? What a pity that they were only a sssavior for the humansss, and not for the Reptitesss." Well, what could you say, even if they weren't Saiyans, the humans of this planet did look very much similar to your race... perhaps that was why the Tuffles decided to cooperate with the Saiyans themselves, all those years ago? Had the similarities in appearance lead the Tuffles to empathizing with the Saiyans? "But... as to why I attacked, I believed that you had come to kill me as you had killed me all those millions of years ago."

"Kill you? No. Azala." Ayla crossed her arms as she shook her head. "Before Lavos crash. Try save Azala. Azala say time of Reptite over." Ayla was now speaking of events you weren't actually there for, so you'd just have to take her word for how things ended up going. Though honestly, she was the last person that you expected would lie.

"Ssshe... did?" The Reptite looked away. "My... memories are only complete up to when my ancestor gave birth... so... could this millions of years long grudge... really have been wrong?" Azala sounded absolutely shocked by Ayla's revelation.

"Right. Sorry couldn't save. Azala... you promise not attack humans?" Ayla was seemingly about to offer the Reptite mercy, and you couldn't believe it. How was she so willing to forgive them for taking control of her? You supposed that there was no harm done at all, considering how quickly you resolved things, but at the same time, it was still fairly baffling to you.

"I couldn't mussster the forcesss even if I wanted to." Azala sighed. "I will sssimply continue trying to reverssse the ongoing degradation of my people... alone in these cavesss..." Azala looked up to the roof of the cave. "This microcosssm of our people... perhapsss it will one day flourisssh again..."

"If Reptite promise never attack humans, Ayla let go." Ayla extended her hand out to the Reptite, who looked at it curiously before taking it.

"Then I promissse... but I do not believe that our ssspeciesss will interact with each other much in the future... if the Reptitesss cannot regain their prior mental capacity, we are doomed." The would be ruler of the Reptites was obviously quite upset at the current state of their people, but it was fairly understandable. Being the last intelligent member of their entire species and surrounded by thousands of absolute imbeciles sounded awful.

"OK, so we're letting them live? That's fine." You just shrugged as you crossed your arms. With the long overdue peace between Humans and Reptites forged here, there wasn't much of a reason to stick around. Well... unless you actually wanted to help the Reptites now, the knowledge they had millions of years ago would certainly have led them to a technological space empire had the arrival of Lavos not snuffed out their early civilization... perhaps helping them get re-established could actually help Temperus in the long run? In a way, they were somewhat like the Tuffles. Two species living on the same planet, one that had a great strength and resilience and the other with a great intellect... though in modern times, the strength of Humans had degraded almost to the same degree that the Reptite's intelligence had.

No promises indeed, but I feel bad for them now. The others made peace with the Mystics, they'd want to make peace with the Reptites. And ironically, Ayla may have been the single worst person to have brought against this Azala. I can't see Schala or Magus failing their saves, and Zeal would probably be able to resist it too.

Fantastic!

"OK, Azala. I... kinda feel a little bad for you... despite everything." The Reptites as a race... they might've been the enemies of humans once upon a time, but for a grudge to last so many millions of years over what had seemingly just been a misunderstanding on Azala's part, it was a pretty ridiculous thing. "So I'm gonna see if I can't ask Lucca is she can think of a way that might be able to help you and your people out a little. Who knows, maybe she can think of some way to reverse the ongoing degradation of your people?" If anything could do it, it was Lucca's scientific skill.

"You... really mean it?" Azala tilted their head at you in confusion as you changed your tune. Where before you had wanted to kill the reptite for taking control of Ayla, now you only really felt pity for them... it was a strange emotion for a Saiyan to have, to empathize for those less fortunate than themselves... but the revelation of the destruction of your own species had changed a great deal about you... and not just in that it allowed you to transform into a Super Saiyan, either.

"Of course. I don't have much of a reason to lie about this, do I?" You understood why Azala might've been hesitant to trust your word. You had just threatened to murder them, though a lot of that was their fault. Neither you or Ayla would've been hostile to the Reptite had they just been willing to talk from the start... but at the same time you couldn't fault their caution. If you saw Freeza walking towards you, you absolutely wouldn't respond peacefully... so it was probably a little hypocritical for you to think about things that way.

"I sssuppossse you don't..." The Reptite nodded in agreement. "But do you really think that there'ssss a chance to sssave my people?" Azala sounded skeptical of your idea, of course that would be natural given the fact that the Reptites had been unable to slow their decay for millions of years, but Lucca was clearly more intelligent than any Reptite who ever lived.

"Well, unless we try, we won't find out, will we?" You shrugged as you started to walk away from the woman. "I'll probably be back at some point later in the year." Lucca would be very busy for the next few months, and giving her a side project to restore the Reptite race back to at least some degree of their former intelligence could possibly split her attention away from focusing on creating the ship, and you wanted the ability to take to the stars back as soon as possible. You still needed to make Freeza pay for what he did, and the sooner you did so, the better. Who knows how many other innocent lives he was out destroying at this very moment?

"Very well... then... I hope I ssshalll ssseee you again, and I hope you bring sssalvation for my people with you." Azala still didn't seem entirely convinced you would have any luck at doing what you said, but you weren't going to attempt to convince them any more than you had already. You'd come back with Lucca at some point when the ship was nearer completion, and then you'd see if Lucca had any ideas for reversing the natural degradation of the Reptites... there had to be a cause for it, especially if it continued even with the continued efforts of Azala and all of their ancestors that only ended up in failure. Of course, you weren't even close to being an expert on this matter, so you'd need to leave it for Lucca to figure out.

"Come on, Ayla. Let's go." You took to the air as you looked at the still grounded Ayla, who was still turned towards the Reptite. What could she be thinking about now?

"Azala. Ayla... sorry for what happen. If can help Reptite. Will." Ayla finally turned to leave and took to the sky just as you did, following you out of the underground chamber through the hole the two of you had originally fell through. Leaving the ramshackle looking house, you stretched your limbs, the artificial light of the jungle was fairly uncomfortable compared to the natural light of the surface, but... it was better than the torch lit darkness of the chamber you were just in.

As you left the building, you were quick to spot Schala and the rest of your group waiting close by for you to return… oddly enough, they looked awfully tense.

You walked over to the gathered group, confused as to why they looked so on edge right now, had something happened out here? It didn’t look like there had been any fighting, so… what could it have been?

Schala hurried over to you. “Rettace? Are you OK? We felt the earth shaking, and we wondered if you might’ve gotten into a fight! I wanted to help, but... Magus said that we’d all just get in your way right now…” Schala sounded a little bit disappointed at having to stay behind, and though it was quite an unfortunate thing to admit, Magus was right, pretty much all of your allies right now save Glenn couldn’t compare to you when you got serious, and against a true enemy of similar strength to you, anybody who couldn’t keep up could end up being targeted. In a way, it was somewhat fortunate that your strength wouldn’t rise any further for a few months. You were still a Saiyan, after all, and while growing more powerful was instinctual to a Saiyan, you felt like growing too strong would be a detriment to you, after all, a battle where you were able to win effortlessly wasn’t a battle at all!

“Don’t worry, it wasn’t anything serious. I just had to have a chat with the current leader of the Reptites. Things have been resolved now.” You nodded. “The Reptites aren’t exactly what you’d be able to call anything even closely resembling a threat. Especially not to Crono and Marle.” Even if the Reptites did attempt to form some sort of invasion upon the surface world somehow, they wouldn’t even be a challenge to Crono or Marle.

“Oh… I’m glad.” Schala was worried about you for nothing. Though you had been taught the lesson that you weren’t actually invincible by Parzlee when she went berserk and by Glenn when he wielded the full power of his new blade, you were still strong enough that you weren’t really at threat of anything down here, the closest thing to a threat was Azala’s mind control technique, and that didn’t work on you anyway.

You looked at the large dinosaur that was a short distance away from the group, and you briefly wondered what to do with the creature. Taking it with you would be a challenge, but… you could just blast a hole through to the surface and carry it upwards if it came down to it… it also might be a little impractical to have a giant dinosaur around all the time though.

>>What will Rettace do?

>Take the dinosaur with him and name it.
Can the dino even realistically fit on the ship? and even if it can fit I feel like it'd be somewhat irresponsible to keep a pet near an active war zone and with Lucca's teleportation stuff we could always just visit it here. I don't really have a name in mind so I'll just go with whatever someone else says

>>5151308

The name suggested by another anon. The hunter is a fitting name for our T-Rex, and a constellation keeps to the family theme for pet names, since Magus's cat was named after the star Alphard. Blasting open a sinkhole so close to Truce sounds like a terrible idea too, when we have someone who can probably open a big enough portal right there.

>>5151313
I think the ship will be big enough for it. I don't think the rest will be a problem either, but if worst comes to worst we can set him free before leaving the planet.

Going with Oranno. Cross between Orion and Tyranno. Our dinosaur buddy is a Tyranno, and Orion is the name of the hunter constellation. On top of that, Oranno is a pretty convincing mismatch of the word oregano, a type of herb AND a fitting saiyan-like name.

Oh shit, here have a sad cat and forgive me

You looked at the dinosaur you tamed for a moment, thinking about just what you ought to do with the beast, it was pretty docile around you and your allies right now, so it was clear that it wasn’t just some sort of temporary thing. Your display of power towards the beast had clearly managed to render it your permanent subordinate. But… it didn’t have a name right now.

“Hey, Schala… do you think you can make a portal to get us out of this place?” You could attempt to blast a hole in the roof, but that could cause a collapse, and that wouldn’t be great for the Reptites.

“A portal? Of course.” Schala sounded prideful in her own ability to create openings in space, and you couldn’t blame her for feeling like that, her magic was pretty incredible. If she were to get a little more spare magic energy, the things she could accomplish all by herself would be unreal.

“Do you think you can make it big enough to fit my new dinosaur?” You kinda wanted to take the easy way out, and that was certainly through going through a portal large enough for him instead of trying to physically take him to the surface by flying him up.

A period of silence passed between you and the girl as she stared at you, uncertain if you were actually being serious or not about keeping the beast. Finally, after some time, she opened her mouth again. “Why?”

“Well… he’s one of the strongest beasts I’ve seen, and I think he’d be a useful ally, especially if I train him.” You walked over to the black scaled beast and put a hand on its forehead. “I think I’ll name him… Oranno.” The name just came to you as a good name for the beast, and while you didn’t know how many battles you’d end up riding him into, you couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to have a creature more powerful than any Saiyan alive when you left all those years ago as a mount. Ayla looked at the dinosaur with excitement in her eyes, at least somebody seems to be enthusiastic about your decision.

She looked at the dinosaur for a moment, “Oranno? I like the name, but… are you sure it’s a good idea? No… never mind, I’m sure that you know what you’re doing… if you’re certain the beast is loyal, then it’s fine.” She then paused. “I’m going to need some of your spare energy if you want me to make one large enough for your new dinosaur though.” She held her hand out to you to hold, and you walked forwards in order to grab it. Flowing your Ki into her body in order for her to convert it into the power that she needed in order to create a portal.

Queen Zeal and Magus looked on in silence as Schala held her hand to the sky and started glowing with magical power, sparkles of light emanated off of her body as she started to open a truly massive portal in front of you all, it started off as a disk just slightly bigger than she was, which continued to expand outwards, you could hardly even feel the drain on your energy as Schala finished the portal, creating a glowing blue gateway that would lead you back to somewhere on the surface.

As you looked at the portal, you felt a question come to mind. “Hey… Schala, would it possible for you to move those portals?” She had increased the size of the portal, so you wondered if it was possible to somehow move them when they were already formed, in order to create cutting blades that could slice through anything!

“Hmm? Maybe, but… recalculating the coordinates of translocation at the same time and spending all that magic… isn’t that easy for me.” Schala shook her head. “I could only budge this portal a few steps away from me, for example.” Darn, at least it was theoretically possible, she just sounded like she needed more magic to do it.

“Oh, it’s nothing, I was just thinking of something, but it’s not important.” You offhandedly waved the matter aside, there was no point in talking about things like that any further with Schala until she was a little stronger and more capable of fighting and casting great spells on her own. “Let’s go.” You called to your group as you patted Oranno on the snout, having everyone exit through the massive portal at the same time.

After your vision adjusted to the natural daylight of the outside world, you noticed that you were standing in the Millennium Square, nearby, the sound of a bell ringing could be heard. People started to scream and run away from Oranno and you sighed. You probably should’ve specified Schala not bring the portal to a populated place, but oh well. Schala looked a little bit embarrassed at her minor gaffe, but you decided against bringing it up. It was your plan to bring a dinosaur with you in the first place, so you’d just be a hypocrite.

“It’s been a while since people fled from me in terror, and they’re just running away from your dumb beast.” Magus sighed deeply as he covered his face with one of his hands. “I’ve got to say, being upstaged by a giant lizard is… not what I was expecting.” Magus didn’t sound all too happy at the commotion that you had caused, while Ayla was just scratching her head, confused at why the people were scared of the cool dinosaur.

“Good grief, what a mess…” Zeal didn’t seem to be happy about all the people running from her either, though it seemed that her reasons were… at least a little different to Magus’ own… Schala was staring daggers at her brother for his momentary relapse into pretending he we was still a demon king

“Right, we should probably get going before we cause more a scene.” You agreed with Magus and Zeal. “We need to get Ayla and Glenn back to their proper times now. But…” You looked at Oranno.
