Summary
[90% of this was written something like eight years ago with minor updates literally made hours before posting, so if the writing style feels ever so slightly off, it is the time difference]
Unfortunately one side effect of the super saiyan form was static, Even more unfortunately for Goku super saiyan three was even worse for it.
Leading to Chi Chi, who was sick of it, Insisting that if he INSISTS on stating that way for periods of time, Leading to her being fed up enough with it all to try to get him to stay in one spot long enough to brush the static out, Because, If one more random household object leads to her getting zapped again she is going to loose her shit because yesterday she brushed up against something while putting dishes away leading to, Well, You can put two and two together about that mess, An mess the culprit of who has been filling the air with so much static to begin was tasked with cleaning up out of exasperation.
[Unfortunately not as complete as i would of ever liked it to be, But eight years of being stuck in w.i.p hell is five years too long, And after an rough polish, It is begrudgingly being posted]

Summary
A series of snippets, Written in no specific order.
Interpret them how you will, Order is intentionally left vague as it started as a mess of disjointed scenes, Adding more scenes was reliant on deciding which of my Merfolk AU's to attach this fic to so here it is on an as-is basis in all it's vague glory. (One day if i ever get around to posting the others i might do an extended AU specific version)Cumber, An ancient and disgruntled merfolk of dubious origins is stuck dealing with a lap full of stubborn and needy saiyan.
He wonders if ever humouring the surface dweller in the first place was a mistake, Though in the here and now it is endearing in it's own way.
Even if he feels the saiyan is a danger to himself he admits he does look awfully tempting when filled with his eggs.
--
The details of the OG draft were nebulous and flexible on purpose, Even if solely so i did not end up 404'ing my own train of thought thinking about the particulars. (and subsequently wither away from embarrassment)

Summary
This is for the Radship Week 2022 Day 6 Sci Fi prompt.
Its the SFW version because i was too embarassed to write the full on NSFW version.
Anyway this is based in a Space AU very different from my other one, Vegeta is a drifter from an age long past, A former saiyan who got caught up in some kind of mishap and wound up a very-much-not flesh and blood being but after puling himself back together clings to his old visage and identity like glue despite going off the grid completely afterwards, Cutting himself off from everyone he once knew and striking it out on his own.Raditz however is the kid of a mechanic and a butcher who lusted for adventure and put his skills and wanderlust to good use by digging up old tuffletech amongst other things -A scavenger- who makes his living primarily off the re-homing of lost tuffle tech and fixing up antiquated centuries old tech.
This covers portions of one morning and one evening in a day in the lives of this particular pair, A day where Vegeta's nature was put on display and Raditz is reminded that Vegeta -while he still looks the part- isn't actually a saiyan any more and it gave him ideas.
2024 Update: The missing smut. To some effect.

Summary
Started off as slice if life fluff and ended as an thinking introspective heavy piece on Bulma's part less than a full week into the situation.
Sheds light on a few of the other aspects of the AU, A few headcanons, But it i mostly Bulma thinking and dealing with thoughts about the situation.
Maybe it would be easier if she did not have a dead weight of a saiyan using her as a living pillow, lying awake at some ungodly hour of the morning and too tired to muster up the motivation to move anyway.
The tags and type of situation it is should offer enough insight into the topics that may be covered, it is not what i would call 'no rock left unturned' but it does cover things like loss, grief, dealing with someone eerily similar in ways but isn't that you know is going to become more of his own person over time and less and less the people that he is basically replacing and touching a little upon the consequences thereof.
If your feeling or are exceptionally touchy about such topics there will be no judgement for not reading this, or saving it for a day you feel less vulnerable. I cannot imagine it to be a the easy read at times for some.

Summary
One afternoon while deciding to help with the Son family farm, While ever grateful he isn't doing it alone as the presence of others helps keep him grounded more than the tedium...
This afternoon it didn't stop the two boys from getting distracted over their usual friendly competition -the goading was how Goten had roped Trunks into regularly helping in the first place- by one of then having unearthed a unusually long earth worm.
While it was mundane enough and a source of excitement for Goten...
Vegito finds himself a little less than enthused by the revelation that of all things a simple earthworm is something that makes his skin crawl.
[Written all in one go, Vaguely proof read. Writer can't vouch for quality due to being sick at the time of writing but its a complete self contained piece of an much larger setting. Honestly i debated using this scene at all due to the cliche 'Vegeta worm phobia' thing but this thing has been kicking around in my brain forever so i rolled with the notion of Vegito while not ending up with a full blown phobia is perhaps on some level deeply unsettled due to Vegeta's influence]

Summary
An AU i have had kicking around for a long time in my head.
Plenty of slice of life day to day drudgery of an setting where the potara fusion didn't defuse, Other have to grieve, And Vegito has to come to grips with existing now that mundane day to day life is unavoidable as he finds his footing.
While he is his own person there is enough influence from the two who fused to create him that the line is muddied and has to come to grips with existing as a person, He is here to stay and there is nothing anybody can do about it.
While others are grieving and trying to deal with the aftermath, Vegito is struggling to find a sense of self as he trudges through the process of developing a sense of self which at times feels easier said than done with just how much Goku and Vegeta made up of the core of him and how as time passes he is less them and more...whatever he is even if their influence isnt ever going to entirely go away.
Nor does he feel like he can fill the gap they left behind.
Will probably rarely update.
Often will be thematic snippets, Some more mundane than others while others will be far more heavy on the existential themes and grieving. Its a mixed bag.- Words:

Summary
To commemorate the end of a decade and finding more unfinished W.I.P's than i thought i had, I'm taking the scraps, Especially the ones that don't fit anywhere OR i don't recall much to to do anything bigger with and polishing them up to the best of my ability and posting them because i know that if i don't it's going to haunt me forever.
At least i'm doing something with them rather than nothing.
Some of the pieces here are going to be more 'complete' whereas others might end a bit more abruptly due to lack of context given for me to do more with.
There is likely more on paper than there ever was put to type. If i ever do find the paper pieces they'll likely get updated...But dont hold your breath as the chances aren't too great.
Most of theese were started and thought out during a very very bad time when i was using thinking up and continuing stories as a means to distract myself.

Summary
Bulma is convinced that the Saiya-jin are either crazy or trolling her. Chichi is amused. Goku and Vegeta just think humans are weird.

Weirdly enough, There isn't much for this four as a pairing, That said, I am glad this fic exists. Sweet with a dash of humour with a slice of how things roll in the presented time frame.
Pretty glad this piece exists, It's a lovely little thing. Its nice that pieces like this exist for this quad, Especially in the few frills uncomplicated smooth sailing sense making it all the better.

Finally getting around to bookmarking this gem!
As it is -even if intended to be part of a theoretical larger piece that never will be- is pretty stellar, Amusing, A lot of neat lines and a (in my opinion at least, Pretty god sense pf humour.
It might only be a premise to a fic that never will be but it stands on it's own quite wonderfully as is.
If i was chosen to pick a favourite scene i would probably have to start drawing straws, But that might just be me being rekatively easy to please with a narrative that was presented like this one.

Summary
Everyone knew Shiganshina was home to some truly gigantic examples of spiderkind. None more so than the residents of the district itself. By the time they were five, every child in the district had become so inured to the sight of gigantic spiders that a tiny little spider was barely something worth noticing.
Of course what Shiganshinans called "a tiny little spider" did not match the rest of humanity's definition.

It's so cute and fluffy it made my cheeks hurt.
It was a joy to read, And i wish i could say something that could do it justice but i probably can't.

Bookmarker's Notes
I'm not sure what to say. But, The bantering in this fic was perfect, Amusing to no end. Poor Vaughn though, Being subjected to all that sap, Yet Yvette does him no favours either with her verbal observations. However it is nice to see stuff like this floating about because as much as i am partial to 'darker' fic's, I do enjoy seeing one's like this about...Because to be honest i am far less picky with theese types of fic.
Overall i wish i could give this fic more kudos than i am able to, Because i really think it deserves it.
I also wish knew how better to put my thoughts to words because i don't think that really put my thoughts on the fic that well, But i tried i guess (even if it ended with me mostly rambling as usual)
