Pausing, before he spoke again. "You're right about that--just seems like Saiyans are made to adapt to it." Another squeeze of her hand, and a tired smile of his own.

A sigh, and he pulled his hand away and curled it around his legs as he brought the other up. Breathing, calling on that discipline. "After it's unlocked, Super Saiyan can be accessed anytime but it burns a LOT of ki for all that it provides a boost. I'm a bit...more reckless in it, a bit more ruthless, but I'm always focused on why I have it. What I have to use it for."
