Fandom: Dragonball Z
Pairing: Goku x ChiChi
Theme set: Alpha
Rating: PG-R rating
Warnings: 41, 45

1. Comfort

During years of training, days of defending Earth, and months of healing in bed, he never fails to be at her dinner table at meal times.

2. Kiss

When Goku kisses her, it's just love and careless joy at the knowledge that she's his; when ChiChi kisses him, she's begging him to come back in one piece.

3. Soft

ChiChi is obsessed with her boys' hair (they are all the same texture), and snuggles them close if even one of them is missing (this trick works sometimes).

4. Pain

None of the solid blows or blistering waves of energy could ever equal the pain of dying (again) and leaving her behind.

5. Potatoes

"ChiChiam I done yet?"

"They are your friends, so you get to help with dinner; and I need 20 more potatoes for this stew."

6. Rain

No matter how long ChiChi keeps the sheets hanging outside, his scent never leaves; she's still debating weather this is a blessing or a curse.

7. Chocolate

After the fact, Goku thought it was pretty cool that Buu could turn almost anything into candy.

8. Happiness

Having Gohan at his desk and Goku doing his 647th circuit of 'two-fingered-hand-stand' push ups in the living room while she fillets their latest catch is home-sweet-home for ChiChi.

9. Telephone

The telephone would always remain a mystery to Goku, much to ChiChi's dismay; it's awkward to be in public with a husband who talks to disembodied voices and teleports everywhere.

10. Ears

After discovering that ChiChi had the most sensitive ears, Goku took every opportunity to tuck a loose, midnight strand behind a curved shell.

11. Name

The Son Family seemed extremely partial to "G" names.

12. Sensual

After Gohan is tucked in bed, he likes to take his wife on a midnight ride on Nimbus.

13. Death

ChiChi starts to shiver uncontrollably every time she sees the Dragonballs; she wishes she knew why.

14. Sex

Thankfully, Goku knew the concept of "making love" despite confusing marriage as a type of food.

15. Touch

When Goku watches Vegita and Bulma, he wonders how they keep so far apart all the time.

16. Weakness

Goku never felt the weight of weakness until he came home to find Gohan missing and Chichi motionless on the grass.

17. Tears

ChiChi made a point to never cry in front of anyone, but that didn't mean that Goku couldn't see.

18. Speed

"Goku . . . you have one second to get in here and explain to me why your son's brand new school uniform is covered in EGG YOLK!!"

19. Wind

No force of nature can keep him from keeping Earth safe, and protecting her.

20. Freedom

ChiChi likes to let her hair down when Goku drives them to the grocery store.

21. Life

Reunions at Capsule Corp. with Piccolo, Krillen, Tien, Yamcha, Vegita, Gohan and all their families are monumental in their lives of death and uncertainty.

22. Jealousy

When Goku comes to bed to find ChiChi curled up and completely focused on a book, an odd emotion grumbles in his chest (an physical action is usually required to sate the strange monster).

23. Hands

A lifetime of training has given Goku the most skilled touch in the world, and ChiChi will take that secret with her to the grave.

24. Taste

Every time she prepares a meal of fish and spaghetti, she thinks of her husband; they will always be his favorite comfort foods.

25. Devotion

Despite ChiChi's mood, Goku always accompanies her on her "shopping-therapy" sprees.

26. Forever

ChiChi nearly had a heartattack on their wedding anniversary, when Goku revealeda tattoo of her name in Chinese characters on his chest: over his heart.

27. Blood

Gohan had to accompany Goku to the tattoo parlor, doing his part to keep his brave father's mind off of the needle.

28. Sickness

Who knew that ChiChi in bed with a fever could bring out the mother-hen in a 200 pound martial artist?

29. Melody
On his way out to train, Goku over heard ChiChi humming in the kitchen; Vegeta had to physically beat the tune out of his head later that day.

30. Star
Sayians never notice stars.

31. Home
Goku knows well enough that ChiChi is the head of the household.

32. Confusion
The doctor was beyond baffled when he first saw the ultrasound and wondered if the young couple's child had an honest-to-God tail.

33. Fear
When vaccination season comes around, ChiChi makes sure to make a little more food at dinner time (he works up an appetite after battling it out with half the hospital staff).

34. Lightning/Thunder
When ChiChi first saw Goku fight, she believed that he really did control the elements.

35. Bonds
The fact that he is an alien with the ability to destroy planets and she is a human princess has little consequence regarding their relationship.

36. Market
People tend to stare when ChiChi, Bulma, and Videl leave the marketplace with carts of first-aid supplies.

37. Technology
"You don't shove bacon in a toaster, Goku."

38. Gift
Goku's first thought when he glimpsed at the lacy--pink--gift Bulma gave ChiChi on her birthday, was cotton candy; ChiChi nearly died of embarrassment.

39. Smile
Her husband is in the smiles of both her sons (especially that troublemaker Goten).

40. Innocence
Goku is quick to see the good in all people (and aliens); ChiChi protects him from everything else.

41. Completion
Alone, together, in their room, they heal all their broken pieces with kisses, sweat, friction, and waves.

42. Clouds
Watching her family play, fight, and laugh among the clouds, ChiChi wonders why the ground beneath her won't let her join them.

43. Sky
After landing a good-natured punch in Goten's gut, Goku dives down and sweeps ChiChi off her feet; her laughter lifting them higher.

44. Heaven
Goku has gone to heaven too many times to see it's perks (food on Earth tastes better anyway).

45. Hell
Sometimes, Goku gets sent down to Hell to keep the assholes in line; he doesn't mind the exercise.

46. Sun
A full day at the beach usually leads to a night of aloe vera and warm skin (clothes just irritate the burns...not that they are needed).

47. Moon
On nights when the moon is full, Goku keeps the curtains closed and holds onto ChiChi just a little bit tighter.

48. Waves
The pressures of being "Mr. Reliable" gets to Goku sometimes, so he, in turn, relies on his wife to keep the tsunami from sweeping him away.

49. Hair
Despite speculation, the Son family does not use gel or hairspray.

50. Supernova
"Show me what it's like, Goku; Show me what it's like to have power," ChiChi whispers; then Goku proceeds to take her over the edge of the universe with him.
