My girl has a ref now!

She's more or less the same, just a minor change in hairstyle and a recolor. This is what she'll look like going forward.

Motivation went on strike again...back to the templates lol

[perfectly-cell-centric]

Doing one here too cause why not

[perfectly-cell-centric]

So knowing how tempting it would be to use Perfection as a descriptor around Cell, would your girl have accidentally (or purposely) said it?

Like maybe cell cooked a dinosaur for dinner and asked how she liked it. The description is sitting right there.

Oh he'd eat that shit up, not talking about the food either lol

Bruh ANY and all praise in regards to himself is euphoric for the guy. Though Kariyah would undoubtedly use that knowledge to her advantage to get herself out of trouble. Got a 7ft tall bug man mad at you and staring you down with murderous intent? Just butter him up a little XD

[perfectly-cell-centric]

Let me send you my own nerding out about Cell to fill your motivation genkidama.

In my Perfect Cell comes back AU (that exists mostly in my head and in a few RPs with friends) he gets brought back by Red Ribbon stealing the dragon balls, and makes the simple calculation that the path to perfection actually lays in joining the Z-Fighters. Former villains like Piccolo and Vegeta grew to insane new heights with the gang, so if you can't beat em, join em.

His turn to good starts purely selfish and calculated, and he definitely doesn't crave connection to give meaning to his incredibly nebulous purpose.

Oooo~

That would make sense and is a pretty smart idea. Though I imagine he was very reluctant to work with them at first, but ya know the saying, "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer," lol.

Cell in my AU thinks along those lines at first, just playing along with this whole redemption/punishment plan Goku’s got him doing, but really is just biding his time and getting more in their favor, earning their trust to eventually train with them in order to get on their level, if not further, so he can exact his revenge. But it doesn't really work out that way the more time he spends with them. His resolve to kill them and blow up the planet falters slightly over time the more he lives in it and ACTUALLY experiences the act of living.

Slight side rant, speaking from Abridged specifically here, but I found it wild how he'd go on about earth, calling it a "dunghill" and a "boring blue ball of dirt and water," and I'm just here screaming at a screen like BITCH! You're only 6 years old! You spent 4 of those years buried underground, and before that, you were merely a fetus the size of a peanut floating in a tube! And besides getting your ass handed to you on the seventh day, you stood in that ring for the previous 6, DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! (I know in original dbz he destroyed an army and went up into space to train and blasted some asteroids during that time, again, strictly referencing abridged here) Damn bug has no legs to stand on saying that shit when he's barely lived at all.

This little tidbit came to mind from that last ask.

“I don't care how unmotivated you are! Pick up that pen, and draw my Perfect Jawline!"

[perfectly-cell-centric]

"People of Tumblr! Lend me your motivation!"

"How dare you!? I am all the motivation you need, my perfect form, my perfect voice, my perfect fist sending you to talk with King Yemma... How could anyone not be motivated?"

I read that hearing his voice lmao. He'd definitely take offense to my bullshit XD

"Excuse me artist, but shouldn't you be busy drawing me right now??"

"Ehh, just not feeling motivated today"

"You chose ME as a muse of all people, perfection incarnate, how the fuck does that not motivate you!!!???"

[perfectly-cell-centric]

Motivation to start anything new has tanked lately, so I've been going through older wips I've forgotten about and finishing them lol

I finally gave Kariyah her own special technique! She can create ki gauntlets! :D

Cell has anyone ever told you that you sound like plankton?

...Nooo??? How do I sound like microscopic aquatic organisms? What idiotic question is that?!

[perfectly-cell-centric]

Kariyah, 🫂

I value trust and good communication in a friendship. I'd trust that I could depend on them when I need them. To share my thoughts and feelings and keep those conversations between us private when necessary and ensure that we're on the same page at least the majority of the time lol

[perfectly-cell-centric]

Kariyah 😬

Bad habits huh?....I have two, maybe more? But these come to mind first. Despite trying not to be, I tend to be a bit of a people-pleaser. I put other people first before myself a lot...and I feel bad saying "no" or when I don't feel up to doing something. Especially like, if I made plans with a friend and they were really looking forward to it, ya know?

Also...I take responsibility for how others feel and take it upon myself to make them happy, to help improve their moods if they're having a bad day or something. I don't like seeing others sad if I can help it. I would rather at least try to help than not do anything. It might not seem like much at first...but...then that guilt starts to eat at me at times when it doesn't work, and I feel like it's my fault that they're unhappy cause I couldn't fix it...when it really isn't something in my control to begin with...

[perfectly-cell-centric]

Kariyah, 👏 and Cell, 🤬

K: Sometimes I can't help but feel flattered and proud of myself if someone gives me a compliment or praise. It's definitely a huge confidence booster, but I don't like to toot my own horn very much, cause I don't wanna come off like I'm bragging.

C: Constructive criticism? From someone worthy of giving it? Fine. If the merit is assessed objectively. I might listen. Unless the criticism comes from someone whose power rivals mine, it’s irrelevant. But if they criticize out of malice or ignorance? Or worse, disrespect while doing so? I won't tolerate it. And anyone foolish enough to criticize perfection without merit… hmhm well, let’s just say they won’t get a second chance to open their mouth again.

K: Cell...you can't be making threats like that!

C: Oh-ho my dear, it's not a threat. That is a promise

Cell 👻

When that triclops bitch turned triangles into fucking squares on me

The humiliation I endured in those few minutes was much worse than my defeat to Gohan, and I stand by that!

[perfectly-cell-centric]

Goku, 👻

Anytime Chi-Chi forces me to go get annual check ups...

[perfectly-cell-centric]

Kariyah 👊

Average, I guess? I can't say I've never been competitive, but I'm not really the competitive type. I like to fight, but if it's just a friendly spar, I doesn't matter to me who wins at the end.

It's more for the thrill of the fight and the adrenaline rush it gives me, not so much the competitiveness of it
