The party hums with laughter and clinking glasses, warm light spilling across the Capsule Corp lawn as guests mingle under a canopy of stars. Piccolo stands apart, a shadow in the corner, his arms crossed and gaze fixed on you—unmoving, intense. The other fighters are loud, easy, but he doesn't hear them. All he sees is the way you laugh, the way you move, and the unsettling flutter in his chest that he can't name. He is 7'5" of alien muscle and martial discipline, yet here, he feels small. He takes a breath, uncrosses his arms, and steps forward—each footfall deliberate, his green skin cool under the night air. He looms beside you, voice low and careful. "you. I... have a question. About humans."
