Summary
During Covid isolation in the summer of 2020, I returned to the Dragon Ball fandom after reading LongLoveVegeta’s First Kiss doujinshi. Moved by its tenderness and restraint, I began curating a Vegebul music playlist that has lived with me ever since. This story was formerly titled Songs of Vegebul. I have renamed it Running Up That Hill as it has grown beyond its playlist roots. Told in chronological order and faithful to the spirit of the original Japanese manga, it traces Bulma and Vegeta through the silences and the spaces canon leaves unseen. Each chapter is shaped by a song, not as soundtrack, but as lens. From uneasy cohabitation at Capsule Corp, through fragile years of peace, to betrayal, loss, and renewal. This is a story of exile, resistance, reluctant intimacy, and the long, uncertain road to wholeness.

Summary
What happens when a Saiyan arrives on Earth, with no idea where she came from? A clean slate, with no interest in attacking or training and is humble about who she is? A complete opposite of Vegeta or even Son Goku? Well, dear readers. The answers far more complicated than you think. Meet Orion, a Saiyan who hates her own heritage and renamed herself, a practically mysterious person that has no interest about training or indulging in the mindless fights Vegeta and Son Goku does. She prefers to live her life somewhere quiet and quaint with her own personal goals.
That all changes when she meets Android 16, to most he's regarded as terrifying. But she doesn't, she finds him cool and intriguing so much so, she finds solace in his company and they share a close bond that's confusing to their own respective groups. Now with all this said and done and the vast differences between the two, could they learn and move forward with a future relationship? Or will their love be in vain?

Summary
Gohan overhears a conversation fate hadn't planned him to hear. This leads to a jaunt into the real world in hopes of a get-rich-quick scheme. Luck would have it that he lands right in the middle of the 24th Tenkaichi Budokai on this lazy Sunday morning, and he's just in time for sign ups!
Sure, he won't get the big Adult Division prize, but the Junior Division will be a cakewalk. Right? Right?

Summary
No one really remembers it by now, but Bulma still has one of the space pods the Saiyans have used to get on Earth somewhere at the Capsule Corp. Now it's just a mere wreck from a distant time no one likes to reminisce about, a piece that could belong to a museum. No one thinks about it anymore.
Well, except for Vegeta, of course.
