He and Rhona were not so different I without telling him she secretly worried about if she would be welcomed home. She did commit a huge crime before leaving. No matter who it was, she still killed someone if the tournaments came around and she was stuck in prison... what would she do?
She might even have the thought of wondering how any prison would possibly hold her if Bana was right and she would be one of the strongest of her planet. They would not be prepared for it. but if she did that... then there really would be no going home. If anything they would both have to follow rules and laws in order to have homes to come back to.
But more so Rhona saw the emotion in his face and she knew he could not come back until he found something for Namek. To her was very hard to know what he felt or was thinking... but right now he might have given her just the clue. "Well I was going to save this for the day you made lift off but that face calls for one now." she'd slip her arms around his sides and wrap around. "I know you will one day come back and amaze the Namekians with whatever you find."

Familiar with this custom now he would wrap his arms around her, giving her a squeeze like she was the one that needed comfort and not him. But the fact of the matter was he appreciated the sentiment of the hug, even if the act did not do anything for him. He understood what it represented to her, and that she herself may need one as well.
She had left her home for her own reasons. And without a family to call her own she may lack ties to her home. Or find it hard to face. Many Namekian's would leave their village to find another in similar situations. So it was something that he could understand and relate to, even if he himself had never experienced that particular situation.
"Thank you. I will do my best to uphold the pride of my people... and the faith you put into me."

She felt his sincerity. As dry as it might be he was not absolutely devoid of emotion. He was a warrior with a duty, anything else would not get in that way. She also felt comforted and decided to let go.
"You are welcome then..." But then she had a thought that made her chuckle. "I guess the final thing is at least one of us will be able to miss Wasabi thinking everyone is getting girlfriends."

"I have been thinking about that."
Ever since he learned what a girlfriend was, and why Wasabi may have jumped to that conclusion. And it had very little to do with either Atlanti or himself. Rather he believed it might have everything to do with Wasabi himself! He had been alone in the universe, looking for even the name of his own kind. Lost in a sea of people unlike him. It had occurred to him that it was a lonely existence before, but he hadn't considered it in that way until they had explained what a girlfriend really was.
"Perhaps it was his projecting his desire to find a mate of his own."

Rhona looked up at him and arched a brow. Her mouth opened about to say how that sounded kind of crazy but then again... It settled in a moment. Maybe it was not that far out there. Her hands rested on her hips and her head tilted to the side.
'Well that is some backwards psychology stuff... I thought he was just being funny, but the more I think about it the more it makes some sense." It was rather funny when she thought about how it made sense but didn't.
"Stuff like that is not easy for me to get. Well at one point it might have but I just stopped with it." There were just other things Rhona devoted her time to and it seemed different from the rest which might have caused her to lose connection with the emotional parts of her that had yet developed fully. Finally she shrugged. "Eh... maybe one day some will tell me they like me and I might give them a chance or something. Until then I am going to keep going my own way, and it looks like you might have a lot of work to do here. I'll see you...when I see you." She gave a wave.
She might have looked somber about it but at least this was a conclusion if there ever was going to be one. She could wait until the next galactic tournament or she could spend the rest of her days never seeing him again and this would be fine with her. She knew she'd have a friend amongst the cosmos and if their paths ever crossed again it will be a good time.

He blinked as Rhona rambled on about what the future might bring her. About the possibility of someone telling her that they liked her, in what he assumed was a romantic or sexual fashion given the topic of discussion. He'd honestly never considered that Rhona herself may be lonely, or wish to be desired that way. At least until this very moment.
"Do you want someone to like you in that manner?"

Rhona chuckled. "I mean... most human's do... Yeah I suppose sometimes, but like I said I fill my head with other things." she shrugged. "As a teenager I had my crushes... but I stopped because, it never worked out. So I just thought if someone thinks of me romantically... then I don't know maybe? Until then I just don't develop romantic feelings for people, it's just turned off, locked up, and stowed away."
She scratched the fuzz at the side of her head. She was so wrapped up in learning martial arts that before she knew it she was just not considered one of the girls. Guys just didn't fall for her and it was something she came to accept with out there being any pain to it. It was no problem if there was a chance for it then she'd have no doubt it will happen. No matter how awkward it was to talk about.

"So you gave up?"
He asked, just to clarify. Because it sounded like she had given up experiencing that. Which was actually very interesting. He didn't know that Human's had the ability to turn off their emotions and biological functions like that! He wondered if that was a mental trick of theirs, or if it was a biological function that allowed them to change their hormones and brain chemistry.

She rolled her shoulders. "Not really gave up on hoping... but gave up on trying? Yes... that is accurate."
Though hearing him say that might have come off strangely. Rhona doesn't like the idea that she just gave up on anything. but as a matter of fact she really did, she was not going to deny that at all.

"Why?"
He was the first to admit that there was a lot about Human culture that he didn't understand. But from what he did understand, such things were a big part of Human culture. It seemed odd that one would simply choose to give up on that whole aspect of their life and culture.

She smiled. "Someone wise once said... "Good things come to those who wait." I am in no hurry to find a mate or lover or anything. It might happen eventually or it might not. Feelings are hard to shut off once they have already started so... if you don't allow yourself to get those feelings from the get-go then it is easy to just let them go. Love at first sight is a physical attraction, but mentally I take my focus away from that so it doesn't reach the emotional connection." Her arms folded across her chest.
"Humans can be complicated... none of us work the same, some are similar, but no one is the same." She sheepishly admitted.

He nodded, but in truth a lot of it didn't resonate with him. She described feelings that he'd never experienced. He could understand the concept of finding something aesthetically pleasing, and to a degree even someone. But the differences in their race were great enough that he didn't have a real grasp on just what it was like to feel that attraction to someone, or experience love at first sight.
"Well, whatever path life leads you on, I will wish for you to find happiness."
Of whatever sort she may desire.

she looked up to the tall Namekian. "Yeah you too big guy."
She clapped her hands, "Well you look like you still have a lot of work here... and before I start leaking from my eyes again like the little pansy that I am. I will leave you to it." she joked and smiled while hesitating on just leaving before hearing what he will say.

He offered her a final bow to bid her farewell. Bringing a hand over his heart fluidly with the movement.
"Until we meet again Rhona Hall."

"Till we meet again Limax."
She then mirrored his movements. She'd stay there a minute before rising up and stepping back a couple of paces. Giving him a wave good bye she lifted from the ground and shot off.
