I just realized that Yon-Rogg is basically Vegeta from Dragonball Z, and I don't know what to do with that.
I realized this mostly in thinking of him in terms of
a mundane AU - mindfuck Matrix edition, and realized that what I'm basically thinking of is the part of DBZ that originally made me want to write reams of fanfic about Vegeta, where he's basically stuck in a suburban AU on Earth and hates it but can't do anything about it.
He's not the exact same character, but I think a lot of the points of appeal are similar. I guess my general tastes haven't changed that much in the last 20 years after all.
The most hilarious part of this is how much they would both hate the comparison.
