Witty Repartee

Within the capsule corporation side banquet hall, within the headquarters building, Scallio sat at the banquet table alongside both Hakurei and Bulma. Scallio was trying to be diplomatic in his own way, though perhaps would seem awkward to those not used to Saiyans. Scallio casually thought of how if Bulma wasn't with Hakurei, that he would be willing to take her as his fourth wife thinking about how ingenious she was in the manga and anime but how powerless she would be in such a 'cruel universe' as he thought it.

The red-head Hakurei smiled and continued to consume great food, only upon having eloquently finished off his plate of ham with macaroni and cheese casserole and green bean casserole and after wiping his mouth, would the red-haired mutant then look to his fiancee' then to Scalio, then speaks up. "So, Scallio. I know you're here to reunite brothers, but is there any other reason as to your visit to our wonderful Terra? Perhaps you can make use of training facilities while you are here on-world?"

"I had a feeling that Raditz would muck it up if he came alone, and might even get himself killed. There are too few Saiyans left in the universe after the destruction of planet Vegeta." he glanced to Bulma, then spoke inn a soothing tone that could be said particularly was meant for Bulma. "Your partner is quite fortunate to have a woman like yourself, though the same could be said for your luck. Out among the stars the universe is pretty cruel. A beautiful woman with little individual strength is likely to fall prey to those stronger." 

He was not done speaking however, instead continuing this line of speech as Scallio smugly faced Hakurei with a playful demeanor drawn upon his face and once again choosing to speak in romantic tone though this time speaking specifically to Hakurei and not also to Bulma as this matter regarded the male and not his fiancee'. "If she were not already taken then I might try to take her as my fourth wife, because her mind, at least, is extraordinarily strong. Treasure her, that's my advice to you."

With Bulma flushed in the face slightly at that comment, Hakurei grinned as he examined the midborn saiyan and sensed out his energy. He didn't truly want to take advantage of their guest in order to save face in front of Bulma as that would result in a fight, instead choosing to respond diplomatically albeit with a sharp tongue. "Oh, I certainly do treasure my dear, every single day that we are alive. So you have three wives? Is that not enough to appease you? I'm sure your wives would be remiss to hear as much, were they here and not in orbit in your spaceship."

"Well, unlike you people it seems, saiyans will probably come across as unusual to the people of this world", Scallio surmised, "We're culturally much more practical and open when it comes to love, for example there's not really any stigma against poligamy for us, with stronger males being able to attract more mates, like beasts. I love all of my wives and we train together to get stronger continuously. We tend to put a lot of emphasis on strength, though there are various types of strength besides just combat strength."

While Scallio knew his individual power was good, he hadn't solely relied on physical strength to court his three wives. Not only had they gone on many missions together, but he'd taken care of them when things got rough. Scallio also thought himself personality-wise better than any average saiyan. "Setting aside cultural differences, my main reason for coming here is seeking new opportunities for my wives and I to become stronger. And seeing if anything or anyone interesting could be found here, like yourself."

Lucian, unlike anyone that was speaking, was simply eating, enjoying the food that was being served, Why? She could speak and decide to socialize with people, but she felt... 'Tired', Closing her eyes, She decided to simply taste the food within her mouth - Once she noticed the lack of taste, She looked around... Ah- No more food. Saddening. "A-" Before she could speak, more food was served, at this point she wasn't going to fight it, taking another large bite of what seems to be a turkey leg, devouring at her stomach's content.

Thinking about whether or not to reveal that he himself was a reincarnator then deciding 'why not?'. Hakurei smiled at that last comment, a smirk shined at Lucian as she focused on food before his eyes returned to the Saiyan, and he spoke to Scallio. "Well, I know that Raditz was ordered here to seek allies against Lord Frieza in canon, does that still apply? Also, if you are looking to become stronger, then perhaps we should have a friendly spar of our own, that way you can witness just how much stronger those possibilities are hmm?"

At the mention of the word 'canon', Scallio realized that his speculation about Hakurai was basically confirmed "Of course. And I also didn't want anyone sloppily mentioning the Dragon Balls. I don't want to trust just anyone with that knowledge. It's better if Frieza never learns of their existence. Admittedly I'd love to collect them myself, but it isn't feasible to linger here too long without raising suspicion." Scallio started finally filling his plate as well "Sparring sounds good, but first I should stop figuratively sitting on my hands and enjoy this delicious-smelling meal." He sometimes felt a bit like a failure when it came to his eating habits.
