"That's enough for now boys!" Whis said with a cheerful voice. "Well done. You both did an amazingly average job. If you keep this up you might be able to challenge Lord Beerus' grandchildren in a few million years." Goku stretched his arms over his head and gave a big yawn, while the older saiyan crossed his arms and huffed. "Anyway, you two will continue this routine after a rest and a meal. You are dismissed for the time being." Both men nodded, powered down from blue to their base forms and flew over to their living quarters for their much needed break.

Goku plopped down on the floor in the middle of their shared bedroom with his legs stretched in front of him and his wrists planted behind his hips. He lolled his head back and released a content sigh. His signature goofy smile plastered on his face. "Wooo boy am I sore! That was some goood training! Right Vegeta?" Vegeta reluctantly followed Goku into the room and merely grunted, trying to discourage the younger saiyan from talking to him. He walked over to his nightstand and chugged down the contents of his water bottle while staring out the window. He leaned one shoulder against the wall and gave a soft sigh, allowing himself to relax. He knows the training is worth it, but the constant forced happiness and poorly disguised insults towards his effort annoyed him to no end.

Vegeta's mind started to wander while staring at the peaceful blue grass, soft orange sky and purple vegetation. Beerus' world is quiet and beautiful. Even though it's home to only a handful of beings, the tree-like structure in the centre of the world is littered with various buildings and facilities. Despite the vast architecture there is only one guest room available, which he was forced to share with an overly excited buffoon. Fortunately there was enough room on the planet to get away from the nuisance and get some much needed me-time every now and then. He gave another sigh while his mind wandered to his newly pregnant wife and his pre-teen son back home. A soft smile formed on his lips. Unfortunately his moment of peace was cut short when Goku roughly interrupted his train of thought with one of his pointless questions.

"Hey Vegeta, what did you mean back then?"

Vegeta turned his head slightly to look at Goku from the corners of his eyes and raised a questioning eyebrow. "Mean what back where Kakarot?"

Goku looked up at Vegeta with an uncharacteristically brooding look on his face. "What does being married and having kids have to do with mouth kissing? I don't get it."

Vegeta's eyes went wide and his head snapped to Goku. Almost crushing his water bottle in the process. "Wha- what?" He stammered, feeling caught off-guard. It took him a few seconds to process what his training partner was talking about, when he recalled the awkward situation in his future son's timeline a while ago. Is he referring to that? When Trunks fed his girlfriend a senzu bean through a tongue kiss? Kakarot thought it was weird for a couple to kiss and said he'd never done it before despite having a wife and two children that are definitely his. It didn't seem to bother him to tell the whole group either. Tch, weirdo.

The prince rolled his eyes and gave an annoyed sigh. "I'm impressed you managed to remember that Karakot."

Realizing that he'd just been insulted, Goku scowled at Vegeta and put on a pouty face that could rival a four year old. "Well that's not very nice."

Vegeta chuckled at his victory and went back to staring out the window.

Feeling ignored, Goku persisted and asked again. "What does being married with kids have to do with mouth kissing Vegeta? Ya seemed really confused by it."

"Confused?" A slight blush started forming on Vegeta's cheeks while he looked down to his fellow saiyan. "I'm not confused by anything, idiot, and I'm not going to answer your stupid question. Now drop it." He felt his cheeks burning and went back to staring out the window for the third time. All hope of a relaxing break rapidly disappearing.

Goku exhaled and noticed the slight discomfort in the older saiyan's demeanor. Something is upsetting his roommate about this topic, so he decided to keep pushing. He put on the cockiest grin he could muster and simply replied with a sharp "no".

This elicited an audible growl from Vegeta who now fully turned towards Goku. His face flustered and angry with a vein popping on his forehead. "If you don't understand, then that's your problem, not mine." He pointed his finger towards Goku to emphasize his words. "Now stop bugging me about it!"

Goku's grin widened to a toothy smile while he put both of his palms up. "Ok ok I'm sorry." He chuckled and scratched the back of his neck. "It seems like something is really bothering ya though!"

Vegeta's growl turned into a snarl. He pushed himself off the wall he was leaning on and strutted past Goku towards the door. "Yes clown, you are!" He left the room to finish his ruined break in solitude.

Later that same day...

Panting and exhausted, both men laid back on their beds after completing Whis' post-break combat routine. "Phew! Whis really put us through the singer today!" Goku exclaimed with a big smile on his face. Receiving a grunt for his attempt at metaphors. "Can ya imagine how strong we will be if we keep training like this? I can't wait to fight someone strong and go all out!" He hit his fist into the palm of his other hand. "Man I wish there was a tournament or sumthing. Like that time when we battled Universe 6. Or like the Cell games. That would be great, don't cha think? Or the Martial Arts Tournament back home! Can't go all out there tho..."

Vegeta wiped his forehead with his lower arm while his roommate rambled on. He slowly sat up, drank some water and hopped off his bed. He took off his armor and gloves, kicked off his boots and walked over to his wardrobe to get himself a fresh set of clothes before he made his way towards their shared bathroom. Before he closed the door behind him he answered Goku's "right Vegeta?" with another grunt. He locked the door and exhaled. He could train with Whis for eternity, but being around Kakarot all the time did a number on his patience. Over the years he learned to tolerate the younger saiyan and he found himself agreeing with him more and more often. He genuinelyenjoyed sparring with him and he'd be lying if he said he hated the challenges Kakarot kept bringing to his doorstep. However, the idiot seems to be oblivious to many things in life. He often wondered how Karakot manages to sustain himself and the people around him with barely any casualties. He took off his dirty combat suit, stripped out of his boxers and turned on the water. He stepped in and closed his eyes. It's moments like this that keep him sane.

On the other side of the bathroom door Goku heard the water running. He stared at the high ceiling while waiting for his turn to shower. Today's training was great. He could feel himself getting stronger with every move and he feels more in control of his ki after every training routine. Plus he enjoys Vegeta's company and considers him a good friend. Although their conversations are usually short on the prince's end, they have a lot in common. It's nice to have a fellow saiyan around who understands his urge for improvement and battle. Plus it's comforting to have someone near with a similar crazy appetite and a weird alien hairdo just like himself. It gives him a strange but pleasant feeling. A connection to his unfamiliar home.

The bathroom door swung open and a freshly showered Vegeta appeared wearing a pair of gray sweatpants and a plain black t-shirt. Goku got up, dropped his gi next to his bed and entered the bathroom. Happy to wash off today's work.

He reappeared ten minutes later wearing nothing but his birthday suit. He hummed a cheerful tune while he walked over to his messy wardrobe to look for a fresh set of light blue shorts.

"Kakarot, have some dignity!" He saw Vegeta reclining on his bed with his palm on his eyes and a blush on his cheeks.

"He he he. Awww come on!" Goku smiled while he slipped on a fresh pair. Oblivious to his apparently offensive nudity. He stretched his neck while he walked over to his bed, killed the lights and laid down on his stomach. Resting one cheek on the backs of his hands. He snickered.

"What is it now?" His comrade asked, clearly tired.

"For such a smart guy ya surely are confused by a lot of things Vegeta."

"Urg, I'm not -!" He noticed himself getting worked up and chose to exhale instead, remembering Whis' lesson to relax more often. "Ok. Go on. Humor me."

"Well ya act really weird when I'm naked."

"I'm not acting weird. You are. It's inappropriate to walk around with your dick out."

"Why?"

Vegeta felt the pressure building up in his head. He swallowed. "It's common courtesy. Nobody is interested in your parts, so cover them up!"

"Sheesh ok..." This guy... Talk about being stuck up. Goku lifted his upper body off the bed and cradled his head in his palms. Losing himself in his thoughts for a few minutes before he continued. "Ya still haven't told me what mouth kissing has to do with marriage and having kids. Is that something that people do? Is that 'common courtesy' as well?"

Vegeta who started dozing off slowly opened his eyes again. "Kakarot, it's –"

"Do you do that? With Bulma?" Goku interrupted.

"I, I –" Vegeta, now very much awake from the rush of adrenaline that the question invoked, sat up halfway resting on his lower arms. Unbelievable, he won't let this go. He glanced sideways at the younger warrior, while trying to gather his thoughts. "Yes, I do Kakarot." He answered after a few uncomfortable seconds. Maybe that will shut him up.

Goku's eyes grew visibly larger. Not expecting that answer. "Oh... Ew really"?

"Tch. How old are you? Twelve?" He spat in response. "Seriously, how did you even have your children?" He asked rhetorically.

"Chi-Chi grew them!" Goku cheerfully answered, much to Vegeta's dismay.

"What?"

"I said Chi-Chi grew them!"

"Yes I heard you moron. What I mean is –"

"She grew them in her belly. At least she did with Gohan. Not sure about Goten, I was dead back then." Goku grinned.

Vegeta's eyes twitched in disbelief while he stared blankly at his rival. He can't be serious. "Right. And do you know how the child got inside her stomach?" Vegeta asked, dreading the answer.

Goku stroked his chin, seriously pondering Vegeta's question. "Hmm I'm not sure."

"You're not sure? The process is very hard to miss clown." Vegeta let out a low groan, regretting letting himself get dragged into this conversation. A thought suddenly struck him and his signature grin formed on his lips. "Tell me something Karakot. Did your food taste funny about nine months before Gohan and Goten were born?" He asked mockingly.

"Huh why?" Goku blinked in confusion. What's he on about? Chi-Chi's food is the best!

Vegeta let out a loud laugh and turned his head to the wall, away from Goku. "You poor fool."

Goku continued to blink. Clearly missing the point. If he doesn't seem to get it, maybe Vegeta can explain it to him. "So how did Bulma get Trunks in her belly then? You're the dad so you must've helped her, right?"

Vegeta's head snapped back to Goku. Shit. "Are you toying with me Kakarot?" He spat. "Because if you think I'm going to give you the talk, then think again!"

"Talk? What talk?" Goku now had a very confused look on his face. This conversation doesn't make sense to him at all anymore. "What does all this have to do with mouth kissing and being married!?" He turned to lie on his side facing Vegeta. His confusion slowly turned into frustration.

Vegeta sighed and reclined back down on his bed, folding his arms behind his head and closing his eyes. "Nevermind, just drop it. Tch, idiot..."

Goku's inner frustration turned into a scowl. "No, I'm not gonna drop it. You're confusing me on purpose."

Vegeta frowned. "I'm not confusing you on purpose Kakarot. You don't appear to understand the basics of intimate relationships and reproduction and that is neither my problem nor am I interested in solving it for you. Now go to sleep before I punch you so hard you won't wake up for the next three days."

Goku went quiet for a few minutes to mull over what his comrade just said. Intimate relationships? That's a long word for having a wife right? And I think res-pro-suction means making more animals of the same kind.I know what animals do to do that! He inwardly giggled. Wait a sec. Goku's eyes went wide. An epiphany just hit him.

Vegeta took the silence as a sign that the conversation was finally over. He started focussing on his breath to prepare himself for his well deserved sleep.

Goku was still on his side, supporting his head with one hand while fidgeting with his blankets with the other. "I think I do know how we made Gohan and Goten." He said in a quiet, sheepish voice. Not looking at the older saiyan.

Vegeta kept his eyes closed. He detected a rare serious tone in Goku's voice and mentally prepared himself for whatever he was about to hear.

"We... eh... mated a few times." Goku stammered. Followed by a chuckle. He felt awkward to talk about it. This is weird. I hope I'm right about this! If he doesn't understand I dunno what to do. I hope I didn't screw this up.

Vegeta opened his eyes and raised one of his eyebrows. He kept his gaze towards the ceiling. "What? Mated? That's what animals do. You don't use that word for the likes of us."

Goku still wasn't sure whether Vegeta understood what he was talking about or not, so he continued to quietly explain. "You should try it sometimes. It's really fun actually and great training too." Getting excited, Goku continued with enthusiasm. "It goes like this Vegeta. Ya grab your wife and you both get naked. Then ya get behind her while she goes on all fours and you get on your knees. Then you grab your –"

The prince sat up, pinched the bridge of his nose and gave a loud groan. No no no this can't be happening! "That's enough of that! I know how that works dumbass."

Goku nodded in happy understanding. Yes! I got it right!

Vegeta felt the blood flow to his face, silently thanking the gods for the darkness to hide his embarrassment. Fortunately Goku kept quiet and just stared at him. He could barely make out the big relaxed smile on his roommate's face. He appeared to be relieved and waiting for the older warrior to continu. Vegeta made eye contact with Goku and blinked a couple of times while mulling over his response. "And you never kissed your wife before or during the act?" He squinted his eyes, already anticipating the answer.

"No, of course not. Why should I? It's not like my mouth is close to hers anyway. I just told ya, you need to be behind her, ya dummy."

Vegeta's eyes went wide in shock. The corners of his mouth dropped down in disbelief. He looked like he just swallowed an anvil and regretted it. A few seconds later, he started to chuckle. "Unbelievable." His chuckles slowly turned into laughter and before he knew it he was wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes. "Can you believe it!? Innocent, naïve Kakarot..." More laughter. "A saiyan god walking amongst mere mortals. The savior of the universe." He was roaring now and confusion overtook Goku again. Vegeta continued. "The Great Kakarot conceived his children by... by bending over his wife..." Now gasping for air. "... and going in dry! No foreplay, just get in there and start pounding." He was still laughing while picturing the situation this clown apparently put his poor human wife in at least a couple of times. "That's brutal! You've got to be kidding me. I didn't know you had it in you." Vegeta was now on his side facing Goku, grabbing his stomach with one arm and resting his head on the other. He was shaking with laughter. Goku felt extremely awkward and confused. He was sure he got it right, but apparently he was wrong again? Or at least he did it wrong? What's so funny? Mating makes babies right!?

"Don't get me wrong Kakarot, I like it rough too. But I at least prepare my woman before I get in there and start thrusting." His face froze, he stopped laughing and he clamped one hand over his mouth and palmed his eyes with the other a few seconds later. "Fuck, nevermind." He mumbled. The last of his giggles quickly subduing.

Goku watched the display with confusion and disbelief while scratching his temple with two fingers. He still had no idea what was so funny. Fortunately Goku being Goku, he just smiled and rolled with it for now. He still wanted to get one thing straight though so he continued to question his friend. "So you and Bulma mated as well to make Trunks?"

The prince dropped both hands to his bed in front of his face. "Yes Kakarot." Vegeta sighed. Staring at his feet. "We did and still do. We call it having sex or fucking. Not mating." He scoffed.

The younger warrior sighed a big sigh of relief. He was right about that at least. "But how do you kiss her then? And why? I still don't understand."

Vegeta rolled back onto his back, folded his hands behind his head again and kept staring at his feet before answering dryly. "You kiss before the act to get ready for sex or during the act if the eh... position... allows it. People do it because it's pleasant and arousing. It's common courtesy and displays some level of respect for your partner, unlike just going in and having at it." Vegeta squinted during the last sentence. Goku was nodding at him, listening with genuine curiosity. "I'll put it in a way you'll understand moron. Compare kissing on the mouth to being naked around people you're not intimate with or who aren't your doctor. It's indecent. Nudity is private and not something for the rest of the world to see, so you're not exposed to it all the time. But the fact that people don't display it in public, does not mean it's not there." Vegeta felt himself relax a bit, but continued in his typical harsh tone. "It's the same with kissing or sex. Everyone does it, but it's indecent to do in public. That's why I was surprised you've never kissed your wife on her mouth before, despite being married with children."

Goku blinked. "Ah I see. It's like pooping. Everyone does it, but you never see it. And if someone tells ya they don't do it, ya think they're weird."

Vegeta sniffed at the analogy. "Yes Kakarot, that's right. I answered your stupid question. Can we go to sleep now and never talk about this again?"

"Yea. Thanks Vegeta. You're a great friend! Imma try that mouth kissing thing next time I see Chi-Chi. It still sounds a little bit yucky, but if a grumpy, stuck up guy like you likes it, it can't be that bad. Hehe."

Vegeta flinched at the insult, but had no intention to escalate the conversation again. "Tch, you do that. Idiot." He closed his eyes and welcomed the sleep he craved after this rollercoaster of a day.
