  1. Sucked in indeed! Every now and then I come back to reread, can’t believe it’s been more than a year.

    You did this to me against my fucking will and you have to ask that question–”

    “Beerus was already going to do it, he just never got the chance–”

    “I didn’t love Beerus!” Vegeta turned, and shoved Kakarot viciously, rage bled into his auras. The other man’s confused non-reaction was even more infuriating, all he did was stumble back a step, looking confused. “I didn’t trust him! I told you to stop and you fucking did it anyways!”

    “Vegeta–!” Kakarot’s face twisted in pain, and Vegeta realized he had never said those words out loud to him before. “What was I supposed to do?! Just stand around and watch you die?!”

    “It was what I wanted, so yes!”

    “Well it wasn’t what I wanted!”

    “You’re more powerful than me so you can do whatever you want!?” Vegeta snarled the words out. “I’m a toy you can play with and discard as it pleases you!?”

    “Vegeta, wait, you don’t think that, do you?”

    “I think you fucking abandoned me!”

    “You wouldn’t come with me!” Kakarot cried out, hotly. “I begged you to and you wanted to stay on Earth! You loved Bulma more!”

    This is still the most raw part of the story so far. Vegeta sounds so broken, like he’s projecting what someone might have done to him badly (the exact wording of what he says can easily be swapped out for those who have been SA-ed/ abused/ had their trust betrayed before). Meanwhile Goku is being Goku, but also hurting.
