El learned his lesson. After the summit, he'd seen so many people with strength far and away above his own. He couldn't treat these people like he would those on Mythos- tearing off arms and shit. So, in order to more accurately represent his people, he would be in town shopping. He stepped out of a store now, wearing black jeans and a gray T shirt. He had a little chain on his side, and a slight smirk on his face. Alright. Operation "fit in" was underway. OOC: :

Rhona had on something other than her usual too. She decided to give this day a rest and ponder some time for herself. In a pair of boots and some blue jeans, with a casual graphic tee. She'd be sitting at a cafe table drinking a tall tea, watching others pass by. She almost did not recognized the wide set scruffy El walk by with out his armor but even so it was no denying it was him... should she say something? She was unsure of him as far as what she knew thus far. He might be an absolute ass or he might be a noble warrior. Those things go hand in hand with some people. Maybe she needs a better understanding...
"Oi, El." Her hand would raise and give a small wave as he passed if he hadn't noticed her already. She was not terribly shy of a person by any means she would give a smile.

He would stop, rather hawkish eyes searching the crowd of Namekians to find the blonde who spoke. He gave a little smile, slowing before shifting to step her way through the group. " Hello, Roenuh." He seemed to slightly overpronounce her name, unsure of it's actual pronunciation. " I see you too have taken to this rather....interesting culture. I bought these clothes at a human store. How do I look, hm?" He'd hold out his hands to his sides, giving her the view to make sure he was in shape. He didn't have a ton of personal interactions with the blonde, aside from finding the swaying of her hips dreamy. She was an honorable warrior, however, and such women in his culture were to be respected. Along with his clothes he wore a bracelet, dark blue in color and made of beads, and a necklace with feathers. " What you think? I fit in now, right?"

She was not sure if she should correct him after feeling charmed that he would go out and buy human clothing and try to fit in.
"Well I am human after all. But yes... Take it from me, I think you look like you'd fit in well." She placed her fingers and her thumbs to make a square so to view a picture. "I particularly think the necklace sets you to fit in on a coast with sand and vast waves moving to gentle winds."
She let go of her finger picture frame and grabbed her tea. "Ah... do you have anywhere you have to be or are you having a casual day as well?" took a drink.

He grinned, bringing a hand up and running it through his hair.
"Thank you. I thought I looked adequate. I do not find these Namekian wares particularly comfortable. Too much room, too windy on the inside, you know?"
His dangly bits got cold!
He'd gesture at the chair, and assuming she let him sit he would take a cup of water and shrug.
"I do not see why I should not enjoy myself, while I am here. While I could train, I do not see one or two training's bringing me up to your level. You must do serious squats, no?"
He laughed, giving a little slap to the table.

She'd eye him, her blue eyes comfortably at rest listening to him, his voice had an accent and it was quite warm.
She smiled. "I mostly brought my own clothes and other than a set or two of casual things like this, they are mostly adequate clothes for my workouts and competitions. But yes I find anything too billowy getting in the way of how I need to move."
She'd nod allowing him to sit with her. She'd feel flattered with his compliment but just pause for a moment after questioning her doing squats. Complimenting her legs and butt? He was being quite forward. She never thought of someone saying something like that to her, she could not help but momentarily shift in her seat as her cheeks grew warm.
With his laugh she'd chuckle to try and brush of the original shock with an eye brow raised. "Ahaha... yeah among other things... however if you would like I can show you sometime, I am pretty decent after learning all I know from my Father."

On Mythos, that's what you did. Complementing a woman on her figure, while not doing so insultingly was considered high praise. But since he'd been here, and after seeing her blush...he cleared his throat.
"Oh...ah, excuse me. I did not- it was not meant to be crass- I am merely direct. My people find compliments on figure to be of the highest regard, for females especially. It means you have the ability to have strong children, and that capability for the bloodline is extremely appealing."
He'd take a drink, then bring up both brows.
"Show me? Your squats? I would love nothing more! Perhaps we can train too- fighting a goddess of your caliber would be a thing of poetry, no?"
He did not mince words when it came to flirting. He was overt, but not egotistical. He didn't mean to come across as forward, but again he spoke his mind. He gave a broad grin, eyes sparkling a little as he chuckled, eyes not leaving hers. He didn't really care if nobody else treated her a certain way.
Their loss.

She raised both hands and disregard his apology. "Oh no no... I think I understand, I don't know anything about where you come from. But even as I am and where I come from... people don't normally talk to me like that. Ah... Earth prefer softer and slender women. I just choose something else. There are those like me but they are far and fewer between."
She'd scratch the shaved fuzz on the side of her head. Her grin was a bit more awkward as she was trying to act natural, still after more flattering words her heart paced like she was jogging for miles.
"Ah I was thinking training as a whole. But... if that is what motivates you, then sure why not." She laughed. "I think listening to your idea of poetry would be something new to experience."

He would smile, giving his bottom lip a little bite before leaning forward, trying his hardest not to get extremely excited at the prospect of watching this fine specimen do squats....WITH PERMISSION!? What.....WHAT !?THEYNEEDEDTOGETMARRIEDRIGHTNOW-
He took another little drink.
"Fuck slender women. Fuck the men who look for slender women. If a lady can't put her foot to my ass, why waste your time?"
He raised his glass to her a little, indicating she was what he was talking about.
"My planet would find you quite exotic. And our poetry, while some verbal, is often retold through action. It's a far more...primal poetry than most would be comfortable with."
He drank again, holding his cup up to the bar keep.
"Another, my good Namekian!"

She'd start laughing at that out burst starting to feel a bit more natural. In a way she could see that he has a special way of being sweet. While it was a bit extreme, she wouldn't mind.
"Well we have a saying on Earth that Action's speak louder than words. I too would agree with it, still that is quite nice to hear." She'd finish her tea as well and raise a hand to get her own refill with his. "Primal can very amongst meaning, not all considered bad. Sometimes giving into your instincts is the only way to live."
It has been so long since she have someone flirt with her. She was enjoying this moment.

He would nod and accept the drink as he got it, before taking another swig. He didn't usually like beer, but he was feeling rather happy now, and turning down drinks might seem....rude.
"Well. Like most we play to politics- our true nature, primal or not, can not just be let go. I am not that type of man. Pretending to be a certain way, or like certain things...all in the name of culture? It just does not makes sense to me."
He would gesture at her.
"Take this, for instance. While were we on my world, I would ask you to date with me since I find you quite physically appealing. But here, I see how people treat each other, and nobody simply speaks their mind for fear of offense. Nobody does what they want for fun, out of some necessity for duty, honor or responsibility. I do not claim that our people don't have culture or honor or respect...but we understand it's role as beneath that of sheer desire. Of our personal drive. Does that make sense?"
He took another drink, feeling he smoothly included his desire to date her. He would smile, chuckling a little to himself.
"That was...rather long winded of me. I believe the alcohol must be getting to me."
He'd had 1.5 beers.

She absolutely agreed.
"Now Earth is not so different from here, I think it might have something to do with the difference in cultures all in one place. Earth has an unknown number of cultures in the single planet. it was like the Tournament was like here but we are all... human. The way we get to know each other is by making multiple interactions, but the first word is always the hardest. You never know how they'll take it... sometimes my words offend even so I mean the best."
In a sense to herself she had made the first word. Going out on that limb was something she decided to do.
"At some point I just decided to stop trying... Once I was a was a teen girl who crushed on boys, boys who I would spar with and mostly beat up." she snickered. "But asking them out was... eh... it didn't work. That and I can have a bad temper. That was an end to a relationship or two." She would regrettably admit while receiving her refill of tea. It was not alcoholic but she has gotten comfortable enough to do some of her own rambling

"Ouu, A feisty one, eh? Well, I too have a short temper. I actually...ripped off a Namekians arm after I first got here. I knew they had regenerative abilities and I felt I had to send a message. Then this fuckin' guy....Truffle from planet Bana, or something like that....came in and laid down the law on me."
He would lean forward, taking another drink.
"But....if all it takes to earn your affections is to kick my ass, I'd be happy to oblige."
He grinned.

She remembered that day, it was that day she laid her first impression of El. Which made her think he could be an absolute ass. Then he said his second part and she thought otherwise, because that was rather nice. Maybe it was just her hoping for the best. "Yeah Bana's got talent. He will be quite the pride of his people someday he kept me at bay recently with the drones he favors. Granted I was not giving it my all but even if I was they were incredibly annoying and I kept loosing my focus." She rambled and waved that away.
"Anyway you felt you had to send a message? A big guy like you seems to be just a walking message... certainly you have big plans of your own?" She wanted to see what his ambitions are. Still he really was tall, might actually be taller than Limax and Dahveid. Which just seemed crazy to see.

He shrugged.
"Sorta. Same thing every warrior wants. Status. Peace. A crown. But even if I don't earn any of that stuff, I want to protect my people. Right now, I'm like a bug among giants. Not even pesky enough to swat."
He would down his second drink.
"I am big, true. But my people avoid fights by make sure people know we know how to throw down. Tearing off one namekians arm would have meant the rest of their people would have left me well enough alone. Before Bana smashed my face into the terra, anyway."
He set down the glass, not asking for a refill this time.
"You...beat Bana? shit. Well, guess you're one of them giants, eh?"
