A/N: I know you're so tired of author notes but, this is to let you know that... I've been having a hard time writing. It's not writer's block this time, it's real life problems; I am being needed constantly to do things in real and I hardly have time to write. Someone had just gotten out of the hospital and is now a home recovering, so please be patient...
Here are some more of her words in her tongue :D
Tisa (Pronunciation: Tea-Suh) Means :So
Homowah (Pronunciation: Home-mow-wah) Means: Cute

"Here we are, I do hope you can come visit again. It was quite enjoyable.~" Whis mused, as the scene shown a sky view of Bulma's home. The birds could be heard chirping from a distance, murmurs of vehicles driving echoed faintly and the scene was zooming in slowly on the Capsule Corporation building.
"You didn't disappoint, that's for sure." Beerus spoke up, soon having the view of him, his attendant and Bulma all in a room. It held sofas, soft chairs, a television and much more. It seemed to appear like a living room, having all the necessities that a living room would have. The feline was standing next to Whis with his arms up against his back. The said teal man also had the same posture, his purple irises were glued to the Aeronan the entire time of their conversation. The cat's slits viewed the blue haired woman, who was just a foot away in front of them.
Akasma blushed at their words, she fidgeted in her spot and looked off to the side in embarrassment. "T-Thank...you..." She managed to spit out, she was wearing her dress and her hands were clasped together just below her stomach. Hearing a small chuckle from the tall man next to her, she peered up at him in wonder and blinked her only big innocent marble.
"Bulma, you MUST hear her play the violin! It is very beautiful, she stated that her mother taught her how to play.~" Whis mentioned and made the cat look over at him with a smirk.
"I have heard her, no one else has though! Well, Piccolo has...but everyone else hasn't. Hey, Akasma?" Mrs. Briefs asked in the end, earning the said woman's attention and had a pleasant smile on her lips.
"Yes...?" The Aeronan tilted her head slightly, I swear...she looks like a cute little puppy doing that...
"Would you like to play for us, when I set up another party sometime? I'm sure you're skills will put many people in awe!" She had a bit of excite on her features, when she asked her that. Both her and Whis looked at the woman with interest, causing her heart to race and her blue pupils to shrink.
"If I wish to be a violinist...I must over come my stage fright... How...how am I supposed to do that though?" She mentally panicked and the grip with her hands together tightened, she couldn't decide.. "Wait... I remember what Whis said a few days ago... Close my eyes..." She spoke once more, then gulped soon after. Hesitantly she nodded, her pupils still small in fear.
"Great! I already can't wait! Oh and also, I have a surprise for you! I found the little thing in a cardboard box, just sitting out under the rain yesterday! When I seen it, it instantly reminded me of you!~ I couldn't just let the poor thing starve." Bulma chirped happily and faced the other direction. She trotted off, ran into some random room and came back out not long after with a small box in her hand. She came up to the woman and had her hand on top of the entrance, having the biggest smile on her face. "This poor thing needed some love but, no one seemed to pay it any attention. So I decided to bring it to you, it's so sweet, lovable and playful for it's age.~" She said and made the Aeronan bat her eye lashes once in confusion, she wanted to know what in fiijishara she was talking about. (lol instead of 'what on earth' xD)
Whis and Beerus both had risen brows at this, until...a cute little noise resonated from the tiny box. "Mew!~" A meow cried out and a tiny fluffy paw poked out from the crack of Bulma's fingers; It sounded hungry and desperate. Hearing that sound though...made Beerus's ears perk up a bit and Akasma's lids to widen. "Are you ready, Akasma?" She asked and held the box out a bit more, closer to the said woman. Seeing her nod slowly, she gradually lifted her hand off the top and she peered into the cardboard container. Inside...was a cute...tiny... fluffy kitten with a purring resonance that rumbled like a motor... It looked up at her with a tilted head and had big, round and innocent blue eyes. It had light gray fur, almost to the point of it being silver and was shiny. It got up on its hind legs, placed its little paws on the edge and looked deeply into the Aeronan's orbs. Her face lit up like a tomato, as she inched her hands towards it.
She was in awe, her wide lids and mouth agape was evident when she seen the tiny thing. Picking it up gently, it was so small...that it was the same size as the palm of her hand. It sat in both her hands, which were cupped and securely holding the innocent fluff ball. Both Whis and Beerus gawked at how adorable it was, but seeing it rub against her fingers...reaaallyy made them fanboy on the inside.
She was still stunned, her small pupils and frozen features still present. Though, her blue orbs went back to normal and she smiled happily at the sight. Her red features changed to a dusted pink over her face, with small and soft giggled emitting from her. "Tisa homowah~" She softly said to herself and rubbed her cheek on it's head, listening to its purr while doing so. It backed its head up and began licking her cheek. Feeling its delicate tongue scrap against her cheek tickled, she giggled at the feeling and nuzzled more against it. She looked so cute to the two next to her, cuddle the kitten and blushing happily.
"Awww, it likes you! Did you know that animals can sense if a person is bad or not? Well you're clearly acceptable!~" Bulma announced and laughed at the scene, though Akasma didn't even notice...she was too busy nuzzling the fluff ball. "I'll have you know, I haven't found out about its gender so... Would you like me to check?" She asked and still got no answer... Akasma was in chibi form now, cuddle the fluffertins that was curled up in a ball in her hands. Bulma laughed under her breath, pulled the woman's hands down and picked the kitten up. That caused the silver skinned woman to look up in horror, seeming upset that it was take from her. "Don't worry, I'm just checking its gender.~" She reassured and did exactly that, blinking at the discovery. "It's a little girl! I'm sure there's a lot of cute names for baby girls on your planet!" She was excited over the cute little girl, wanting to know what name she would pick for it.
Akasma looked down at it, after the blue haired woman gave it back. The fluff ball of cuteness just sat in the palm of her hands, looking up at her innocently. Her turquoise orbs wavered in awe at the kitten, with many names soaring through her mind. The said kitten before...had gray fur, it looked so soft and silver like. She had dark gray tiger stripes on her head, down her backside and on her limbs. "Silvia would be suiting...but so would Chrola...hmmmm... Chime..." She mentally contemplated and soon smiled sweetly to the kitten. "I shall call her 'Chime'... On my planet, the name 'Chime' means, melody. When she meows, her voice sounds so small and cute, yet I can see her singing with it as in a chorus of Tokimawahs." She answered, not even noticing the blushing blue haired woman who was cooing over the name and its meaning.
"It certainly is suiting! Hmm...what does 'Tokimawahs' mean?" She asked her and tilted her head to one side, she was lost as to what she just said.
"It's the name of a species that's on my planet, they are similar to 'cats'. Toki is like an older cat and Tokimawah is the baby version of their species." She explained with her attention on the other woman, smiling softly and her lids were closed.
"That's neat.~ Hey, would you like me to buy 'Chime' some supplies? I can get a toy, some formula and a proper bed for her." Bulma asked and yearned for a reply, she would not mind at all helping the Aeronan and providing advice on how to take care of the kitten.
"Yes! I-I would like that, thank you!" The entire time of their conversation, both Whis and Beerus were playing with Chime. Beerus's finger had the kitten's paws wrapped around it and biting it, while Whis was petting it gently with two fingers. The God of Destruction had an amused smirk plastered, while his teacher was giggling and had a content smile on his lips. Akasma didn't mind them playing with her, in fact she thought it was adorable! Just seeing the little thing fuss at times, meow, poof up its fur, gently gnaw on Beerus's finger and playfully swipe at Whis's hand made her giggle.
After what felt like an hour or so, the two had left and Bulma was with her family in her yard. Akasma was still cuddling the fluffertins, sitting in the guest room that Bulma allowed her to stay in. "Are you hungry, Chime?~" She asked, giggling right after the said kitten flopped on to her side and rolled over. "Not yet? I suppose, Bulma did feed you earlier for me. I am grateful.~" She mused. She was laying on the bed on her stomach, her feet up behind her swinging up and down past each other. Her jaw rested in the palm of one of her hands, while the other had a finger tickling the kitten's tummy.
Chime clamped her claws lightly around her finger, whilst her back feet kicked at it. She was so hyper, her ears were folded down and her tail was swatting all over the place. "Hahahahahahaha!~" Her laughter made the flufertins jump and arch her back, slowly pacing towards her in attempt to look 'bigger and scarier'. She couldn't help but laugh even more, her voice caught a pair of green ears that wasn't too far from her window.
Piccolo was next to the window pane, talking with Gohan and Goku. His ears twitched at hearing cute laughter, though no one else heard it. He looked over in the corner of his eyes, then they widened at the sight of Akasma playing with a kitten on the bed. Her sweet and happy open smile, narrowed amused orbs and pink on her cheeks surprised him. "What's wrong Piccolo?" Goku asked and walked closer, yet he didn't get an answer. Gohan rose a brow and he too inched closer, soon following the green man's irises and finding what caught his attention.
"Akasma?" The man asked, who stood next to the full blooded saiyan. All three men blinked in curiosity, except Piccolo of course...he was shocked. "Is that a kitten?" He added to his question, then smiled at the scene. "Well what do you know, she got a cat." He stated and watched in amusement, even Goku watched.
"She seems to have warmed up a lot. Hey, Vegeta told me that she had this interesting power. He claims that she's strong with Ki but, he has yet to see her actually fight. I wonder if she'd spar with me." He thought, not really stating it as question.
"I doubt it..she doesn't seem like the type to just spar with anyone... I remember when she flew up and tried to stop Lord Beerus from throwing a tantrum; With my ears, I could hear her mention that she would stop him if he refused to listen to reason..." Piccolo...who's name is that of an instrument, pointed out and folded his arms. His expression went stoic after averting his gaze from the scene.
"Yeah I know. It's still hard to believe that she managed to catch him off guard, I mean you'd think he'd sense the attack coming at him!" Gohan stated and peered over at the said green bean.
"We could ask her later if you want, I'm sure she'd answer!" Goku spoke up, then turned his attention back to Piccolo and smiled.
"Yeah...if she doesn't freak out. If someone new approaches her or if she's still a little uncomfortable, she'll stutter and shy away..." The instrument man stated and shut his lids, not very happy at how afraid she acted all the time. Regardless though, he thought she was kind and very soft; Someone he'd probably be able to talk to everyday if he wished, simple small talk seemed nice to him. Looking past her phobia, him and her would probably be great friends.
"Well, you and I have already met her so...she should be a lot less shy than before." Gohan spoke and rubbed the back of his neck, his other hand got stuffed into his pocket.
"Yeah...that is true." Twas his simple reply, before lifting into the air using his ki.
"Where you going, aren't we gonna go see her and ask her about that?" The same man questioned and watched him hover higher into the sky.
"We will later, right now...she's enjoying the presence of that kitten." His words was all he received before he took off, leaving just Goku and Gohan there.
