And here we go!

[Goku has turned out surprisingly sane in the last ten years, all things considered. He got his diadem back during that time and, at the prompting of many people, has worn it every day. Not that he minds. There's very little he minds.

Over the years he's calmed down. Growing up does that to you. He still drops by Sanzo's place and lets him sleep

... you skipped out on work again for too long, didn't you?

[mini_meatbun]

DARN IT! I KNEW I WAS FORGETTING TO DO SOMETHING!!!

[stop_it_tewi]

Maybe you should have some kind of reminder put up somewhere for yourself.

[mini_meatbun]

Well, I was gonna do that, but.... I forgot. [Sheepish laugh. Ohgod, he can already hear several people reprimanding him again for this!]

[stop_it_tewi]

... you should do it now while you're thinking about it, then, Goku-san.

[mini_meatbun]

But I'm huuuuungry! I barely eat whenever I'm droned! [Lies! He still has his appetite when droned.... it's just a normal healthy appetite as opposed to his usual 'eat everything in sight' attitude towards food.]

[stop_it_tewi]

... you'll forget about it by the time you're finished eating. It'll probably take you five or ten minutes at the most to make some kind of reminder for yourself.

[mini_meatbun]

But the lady [His "wife"--he's never called the drone women they're assigned anything but "ladies" "kids" or "guys"] is making ham! It smells good!

[stop_it_tewi]

It'll still be there when you're finished.

[mini_meatbun]

Well, I guess you're--

Dear! Dinner!

Gottagobye!

[Dialtone. Goku's gone to eat!]

[stop_it_tewi]

...

...

Maybe I should start calling him to remind him to go to work...
