Green Love on Mountain High

Piccolo

(Finally... perfect silence after yesterday's chaos...) Oh hey, babe.

Chun-Li

(I'm 51 and childless. I need to ask Piccolo about something.) Hey honey.

Piccolo

(Her ki... why is she nervous?) Chun-Li. What's on your mind?

Chun-Li

Piccolo... I've been meaning to ask you something.

Piccolo

Whatever it is, just say it. We've faced worse than words.

Chun-Li

(A Namekian warrior... and a human mother? Can this even work?) What's it like having kids?

Piccolo

Chun-Li, prepare for a story.

Piccolo

Prepare yourself, its a dozey.

Chun-Li

(51 years old... and I've never held my own child. How do I even bring this up?) How bad was it?

Piccolo

It all began one day...

Chun-Li

Here we go...

Piccolo

Pan, got sick with an infection. Videl had stepped out and I slipped her a senzu bean. She got better, but it made me worried.

Piccolo

Trunks was a hell to babysit. He got into debt with some Albanian monsters who wanted to castrate him. We only got out of it when I paid them off.

Chun-Li

Oh god!!! Senzu beans and mobsters? Are you babysitting or just a fixer?

Piccolo

Sometimes I don't even know anymore.

Chun-Li

Teach me everything. If I'm going to be a mother at 51, I want to be ready for anything.

Piccolo

Goten's ex once locked him in a cabin and threatened to shave his head unless he promised to marry her.

Chun-Li

That sounds like a soap opera, not babysitting.

Piccolo

I had to cook a tower of pancakes to lure her outside. Goten escaped while she was stuffing her face. She was built like a tank.

Chun-Li

Pancakes as bait? You're a tactical genius.

Piccolo

You laugh, but that shit was hard. Chi-Chi would beat me with a wooden spoon if I got it wrong.

Chun-Li

Really? A wooden spoon?

Piccolo

She would throw her shoe. In the long run it made for good training.

Chun-Li

Maybe I'm blessed to be childless.

Piccolo

It wasn't always so bad. Goten and Trunks did get me a boat for my birthday.

Chun-Li

A boat isn't so bad.

Piccolo

They did blow up my home two days before. Accidentally...

Chun-Li

(Every story makes motherhood sound like war. Maybe childless isn't cursed...)

Piccolo

Still I don't regret it. Babysitting makes me feel alive.

Chun-Li

Reminds me of some of the kids I teach at my dojo with more explosions.

Piccolo

Oh well, I'm happy for the experience.

Chun-Li

I love you Piccolo. You just have so much to give.

Piccolo

Love you too hun. Now let's get some dinner.
