[The feed clicks on and we can see an image of a man's face. His bright eyes are wide with something like curiosity, and he's kind of grinning as he turns the device in his hands with a low whistle.]

Man, this is way fancier than any equipment I ever got at work. It's the swankiest walkie-talkie I've ever seen! [He gives an amused laugh, then ( Read more... )

[Who knows all about where ice cream is? This kid, man.]

Oh. Well, if you just got here, I guess you're at the Towers? That's in Sector Four, so the closest ice cream shops to there would be . . . [He lists off probably four or five places. Because . . . ice cream. It's good stuff!]

You guess correctly~ [And then he tilts his head at the map he got, squints, then turns it around so it's ah... right side up this time.] Ah... oh, okay, Sector Four, and... Hm, there's no shop list on here, but if they're all nearby I'm pretty sure I can find 'em now that I know what names to look for.

I appreciate it, kid, I'll keep an eye out. You a connoisseur, too?

[Who needs maps? He just flies everywhere! Exploring the city doesn't take long when you can just zip around like that.] I guess they don't think it's too important to list ice cream shops on a map.

[And you'd think that a kid his age would be confused by a big word like that, but he doesn't even blink.] Definitely. Of . . . just about any kind of food, really.

Man, ice cream shops should be the first thing you put on a map. [And then he chuckles. Hey, food is pretty awesome. Not that Axel looks like he actually gets enough to eat.] Heh, you sound like somebody I could get along with--got a name?

I guess I was really lucky Miss Rinoa brought me some when I first showed up, then.

[Well, does Gohan look like he can eat what would feed a family of four for a week in one sitting?] Well, why wouldn't someone get along with you? You seem pretty nice to me. I'm Gohan.

[He barks a sharp laugh.] Ah ah ah, kiddo, you can't always judge a book by its cover. [Apparently this one never got the Stranger Danger speech. Lucky for him Axel is a fundamentally nice guy most of the time, even if he tries too pretend he's not.] Heh, well, nice to meet you. I'm Axel--commit it to memory.

Been here long, Gohan?

Oh, I know that. Which also means that there's people who like to pretend they're not really nice when they actually are. I know a lot of people like that back home. [Has he got you pegged already or what? Honestly. The first time he met Piccolo, he told him his dad was dead, and if he started to cry, he'd break his neck. Now they're best buds! Axel is making a much less scary first impression.

[And Stranger Danger is kinda moot when you can literally pound the stranger into the ground if he tries something funny.] It's nice to meet you, Axel.

Oh, since February. So . . . about seven months now.

[True, true, but so far as Axel can tell, you're just a normal kid. He's not about to judge books by their covers either--he happens to know a kid who can kick his ass, after all. He's his best friend, at that--but he's still a little surprised that Gohan is so open and congenial.

[He puts a hand on his chin.]

Seven months, huh. So you know the city pretty well, then? [A snort of laughter.] I guess I know who to ask for dinner recommendations.

[Well being open and congenial is what gets grouchy people to like you! Even if it also confuses them. Not that he's conciously trying.]

[He laughs at that last bit.] I guess so. I just always have to be careful not to eat everything at a restaurant.

... Wait, do you mean like there are things at a restaurant that you shouldn't eat, or you mean you are actually potentially capable of consuming... everything? [Hey, he's probably seen stranger things, but... this would make the top ten list.]

Oh, I could eat everything there, easy! I've kinda got a big appetite; got it from my dad.

[A low, impressed whistle.] You must have one helluva metabolism, kid.

Yeah, kinda. [He's not specifically hiding it, but he hasn't really told anyone here that he's not fully human.] Runs in the family.

[A laugh.] Good to know--I'll make sure to place my wagers on you next time the port hosts an eating contest.
