Another day another cruise she saw to the safety of with the odd jerk slapping her tightly gripped posterior the unsolicited flirtation behind her back, the real jerks that splashed her in an attempt to see if she was water proof, or more creeper to see if the clothing would tighten to see if she was a companion gynoid that was... anatomically correct. The gynoid went again to an escape to the mental realm putting her body in a broom closet in a corner so if some jerk tried to take her position to their advantage likely the crew whom she secured a deal with to allow her to use the closet to charge and privacy they would get in trouble not to mention keeping her self protect protocols on if one attempted to access a maintenance zone of her body to try and ‘take her for a joy ride’ Awakening in a massive chamber ship, an absolutely exotic space cruise ship, any luxury lover would give limbs to be on. She realized she was in the same body she met the saiyan nappa in. was this her subconscious way of coxing her to get the combat body? * She panned her head from side to side. She had her shield and blade that would identify her quickly as EP3 218 www.youtube.com/watch?v=olljRQ7zSO8&t=142s

Joseph was inside the gravity chamber of his father's ship, on the ground doing sits ups under a magnified level of gravity. Willing himself through the pain that was radiating through his stomach that feel like it was tightening and being crushed with each sit up he did."394, 395, 396, 397, 398, 399,400." The enhanced gravity ceased reverting the air to its natural and relatively light state. Joseph sighed in relief and flopped back to lie on the ground as he took breathes while lying on the floor. Sit ups was one of his least favorite exercises but training was training and he wanted to be well rounded in the work outs he did.
His father had told him that once you did sit up long enough they eventually stop hurting, Joseph would love to get to that point, however he wasn't sure when that would be the case for him. Joseph decided to sit and meditate by his gem of telepathy and take a trip to the astral realm to rest while also continuing his training. After a few moments he entered a trance like state that soon transitioned him to the Astral realm.
As he usually did he looked around while reaching his sensitivity toward energy to find any other presences. He didn't feel anyone else around but while his eyes scanned around the area they caught an Android woman with a sword and shield. It wasn't Yua, he was sure. He had never seen her use a chasis that looked like that plus she didn't use a shield, though between her lack of barriers and getting out the way of attacks seldom being a strategy she used, a shield would have been helpful. However, there was another gynoid he knew that used a shield. "EP-3?" Joseph said, questioningly. She didn't have a ki signature he could sense to recognize plus being an Android along with having to sometimes change parts her scent wouldn't be something he could use to identify her with.

The gynoid turned to the boy warrior and nodded at his questioning of if it was her, she sat at a table and invited him to sit down at it at her side.
“Nice to see you again, I have been seeing this combat body in adverts across protectorate networks guess my sub processors are gravitating to it for some reason I have yet to conclude consciously.” she said in a calm voice that sounded a bit more natural but a bit of a hint still lingering to a close listen it was synthesized And it did sound like her maybe with a pitch or tone mod applied.
The familiarity in her eyes glow however would likely further affirm. She went on to relax on the table after all this was a dream realm, so she relaxed on the table a bit resting her heels on it as she put up her legs she decided to get a drink from a conveniently in range can vending machine on the table flinging appropriate change into the machine and catching the can with a leg before bending it up and catching the can as it fell.
Some high grade FPS processing for her to calculate 1 to 1 where to put everything to make the end result of the show look effortless.
Then again, with hybrid digital and analogue computational matrix she would argue more impressive to see humans and the like doing feats like that with sheer intuition guiding them, not layer upon layer of overlay calculations in sub processors.
Of course, he could ruin the show at a whim by taking the soda or altering the trajectory forcing her to adjust on the fly, likely far less graceful than this display.
But it would not matter to her, if he secured the drink from her, she would get another or drink this one and offer him change for one to share and potentially toast with as friends.
Fortune they were not in the flesh likely would have strangers who did not know of her think she was the parent's arranged mate for their kid, far from the first time she would have gotten such a rude and potentially sexist conclusion drawn on her being with some one when they could identify her as a gynoid.

"A combat body?" Joseph asked. "That sounds cool, what can it do?" Joseph didn't know much about Androids or the intricacies of an Android's chassis and the features they would have. Yua often changed her bodies to the effect of a handful of different looks, though he didn't recall seeing any stand out changes to Yua's abilities between her different bodies. If he recalled correctly, the first body Yua changed into since he had met the Android was that blonde one. He remembered that it made him thinking of that one Weapon's expert who was also part of the Protectorate.
Joseph walked up to Gynoid and sat next to her at the table. He was happy to see the Android again, but meeting with Paladin's was always awkward ever since that business on Odin given the stance that apparently some of the protectorate had on the boy and his way of doing things, though that wasn't shared with the Paladins that he associated with.
He didn't interfere with EP-3's little display of catching and balancing the can with her foot, simply watching as she did so and appreciating the little performance. "Cool, I have a friend who can do that."

“A combat body is a body like Vlad’s one with features and capabilities my current frame lacks capabilities for at this time” she said calmly with a small smile.
A twinge of the mental link went off for a moment with empathy peaking a hint of negative association plaguing the boy a moment, she tilted her head a bit, this would not impact the performance as her sub-processors already calculated how much power and in what direction it would need be applied, she could do it blind folded at this point so adjusting her head position did nothing.
He would however see her brow bend up in a sympathetic manner, detecting something off a moment.
The synthetic female did her trick and smiled. “Were they human or organic, lacking internal calculation systems? If so, that is impressive. I have to admit never wishing to be organic but wanting to live along side you all, I do admire the capacity of a fair few of your types capable of getting by with intuitive mind, intuition alone and not an internal parade of sensory and calculation modules to make a trick of coordination or timing a matter of sub processed calculations.” she said relaxing a bit but the worried brow returning.
“Is something troubling you? I processed a momentary alteration in your mood and thought patterns. Anything you wish to chat about?” she looked to him, soft glowing eyes pulsing with a passive stream of background data from her sub processors.
She spun a stool and got on it with the back to her front, pressing her chest against the bars of the back softly and nesting her arms under her chin as she looked concerned for her friend.

"He's organic," Joseph said to answer EP-3's question. He was sure the calculations she could run and how precise machines could was how EP-3 was able to balance it so easily, still it was an cool to see nonetheless. Joseph continued sitting, leaning back into the chair as he just sat with his thoughts in the momentary silence between the two of them. The Gynoid broke the silence by asking him about his seemingly melancholy mood.
"Huh? I'm fine," Joseph said as he placed his hands behind his head, honestly his most recent meeting with Yua was on his mind, but he didn't particularly want to talk about. He didn't want to have a bad effect on the mood of the the usually joyful Android and he never particularly care to talk about things.

She nodded “that makes it all the more impressive” she admitted to learning a pure organic did it, intuition and repetition honed skill was capable of impressive things.
She got a bit closer and resisted the urge to ruffle the hair or other friendly but potentially misread gesture of being above him as he was a kid, and opted for a hand on the shoulder and a soft pat. “Any matter you feel the need to chat about, do so when you are ready, my dude.” she said, smiling softly.
She was still worried of the mood she detected, but perhaps a day will come when he is comfortable to talk about it, she lacked her master’s intuitive skills as it stood perhaps one day she will be capable of better mirroring it but what was important is that he felt ready to trust her with what may be dancing about his mind, be it of her, of convictions, her sentience, or her kind in any of those ways, Joseph was a good bit brighter than the sort that simply would settle at robots are cool or weird. She suspected if such things were of focus at this time he would be quite nuanced, he seemed to hold a very positive friendship with Vlad and her, so likely any of the religious windbags would not remotely impact his views.
Or perhaps the paladin order, the youth was a good one aspiring for aiding others but unsure of the path, EP3 was hardly the one to guide any she was still a learner herself so if that was an aspect of registering information that weighed on his mind, it was sadly also up to him, she could speak of paladins and how she felt aiding them and the organization but from her understanding the scholars had their share of good members who could make a compelling argument that their freer association with the choice to aid others is more true to the individual than the paladins who have a core solidarity value they swear to. Both were good and no doubt a good fit for the youth, but which flavor of altruism would he go for? And it did not end at those two, as a free agent he has done good things and could continue to do so. Being a good entity and living up to the aspirations of good has been something that troubled her mentor, so perhaps Joseph was finding his own view of what type of good he could best serve and how to balance that with a bountiful existence he can call his own.
She got a drink, closed her eyes and sipped long out of it as her mind shot up some possibilities of what may trouble the youth. But found most he would need to make clear to her, and even then an unfortunate few were ones she could aid him with.
But one thing she did know a friend did was a friend was an ear that would hear his troubles and a shoulder her could lean on and arms that would offer comfort in pats on the back and the friend hug if needed to mask tears or just be there at their side. . Solidarity between friends the allegiance differences and the species/ type of life they belong to differences meant nothing.

In all honesty, the matter with Yua was bothering him more than he let on. She seemed so detached since she was freed from her remaining programming and seemingly their rapport was lost to her. It made him feel betrayed, though Joseph wasn't sure if that was the best word to describe this change. The main thing that bothered him about it was the implication that the real Yua didn't care. It made him wish she had never sought him out and assigned herself as a guardian. First Goku jr. was no longer around, either traveling the Galaxy or whatever else, Mona coming back after leaving for so long just to be gone again so quickly. It seemed like whenever he got close to someone that made him feel less isolated the rapport didn't last.
Joseph would be hard pressed to bring that up as a topic of any discussion, however. At least there were people like EP-3 who remained loyal and present in his life. There was something she mentioned that did pique his interest. A new combat body. EP-3 was always a decent fighter in her own right but he her body wasn't the best suited for fighting. He was happy to hear she'd be getting something that would help keep her safe, especially when she was constantly dealing with things like people that wanted to smash every machine that moved as well as Spider. "What can the combat body do?" Joseph asked.

She frowned at his palpable pause and tilted her head, he then simply asked of her frame. "Oh this frame boasts superior friction resistant motors, various re-adjustable joint functions, superior energy conversion systems, better self lubrication and wear resistance and two high performing solid state hard drives hosed behind a robustly protected…” she paused, getting a bit excited on what this form boasted over her in the flesh state “oh many improvements to my mechanical systems, higher processing ceiling, general quality of life upgrades, better fit for wielding weaponry and combining with pseudo ki, and important for me, one that still maintains sensory comparable to my current and functions do not cut into my social processing resources.” she suspected it would still get an inordinate amount of attention from the roshis and the like and no doubt the anti ai sorts would still see her as a tin mockery of femininity with a false self but such things could not be helped, she liked the body and if she were to attain Vlad’s blessing for power and station taking his place, it would make for a great general body that most places especially with a general city vibe she could fit in with a good deal ease. Many positive reviews on the upgraded form, from the units who gained the power to protect those that mattered to them, to the employers who had units in that form to some of the more joking reviews dropping things like ‘dommy mommy’ in the review. As well as other types of motherly unit cores, which seemed to be a popular pick for nurturing and protective protocols that came as standard options for a non-transfer type. 280

"Neat," Joseph said referring to the improvements she listed. It sounded like it was stronger and more efficient than her last body and that was good. Honestly as dangerous as it was to serve and protect as a Paladin an upgrade like the one she was getting was essential. He would miss how she looked before though, the long white hair and black clothes. That's how she looked when they first met and that's how he saw her as most often. It also reminded him of Hinata since they had similar hair and color schemes. He wondered how Hinata was doing, she was probably out having her own adventures.
When it came to Yua the General changed her appearance like he change changed skins in Fortnite. First she pretty but a little creepy with the whitish hair. Then there was the body that looked like a Paladin named Hana, who if he remembered correctly was known as the chosen by Ganr and a master swordswoman and her appearance continued to vary after that. Simply put there wasn't much in the way of time she spent in one body for him to get use to one appearance not that it was an issue either way.
Joseph would support her no matter how she decided to look even if she felt like going bare terminator, though that would probably scare a lot of people. He was happy to no that it was overall to her satisfaction, protection was a plus and she didn't have to give up the sensory aspects she enjoyed. "How is Vlad?"

The gynoid took a moment to consider her form, she enjoyed them both the one she had in the material world and of this one she was gravitating to in this frame. She grew accustomed to the look of the white hair sort, and maybe she could control the form shifting for multitudes of looks with nanites should she finally win the trust of Vlad to finalize the decision, when things settle down more. She had the capability to alter features of herself to better suit partners built in so she could have all manner of looks for different roles still she did like the merger of high tech and style this default form for the upgrade took.
He questioned on vlad. She looked up “Well he says apart from a lot of the day to day being mundane it is decent, just throwing the same power armor sporting thugs behind bars, at least it is a thing to do, tho he did wish after the 12th time given a week in the joint they would reform or, at least realize this type of life brought them enough pain.”

"More power suit guys? It's been a while since I ran into any of them," Joseph said. He remembered the time when they had a couple run in with anti-syth activist wearing exoskeletons. The fact that he hadn't run into any of those people in awhile made him conscious of how much time him and the gynoid had been apart when they were seemingly constant companions before. The boy guessed the extensive time apart started while he was preoccupied training to gain control of his power and after that he was in his own adventures.
Mona had showed up in his life shortly after his time under Anna's tutelage and he ended up gravitating to the water mage because she was nearly as strong as he was and in Goku Jr. absence she was his go-to partner to go on adventures with. He missed her and seeing EP-3 here reminded him that he missed her too. "Where are you now?" Joseph asked. She active on Earth more often than not and that was mostly when she wasn't on a mission with Vlad.

The gynoid smiled the presence of the youth with a good heart was a welcome one to the synthetic woman, she respected his bravery and how adaptive he seemed to be, an intriguing entity.
“I am actually on a luxury cruise ship sailing around the vanished suicide station at the ruined planet, slowly trying to cut my teeth on a few tougher sorts than Earth tends to produce in the crime sorts, that and mentor Vlad is often on other worlds so getting used to that as a progress if he ever entrusts me with his power. I would like to prove I would be worthy of such trust of his station, part of that could be establishing a familiarity with the wider galaxy.” she refrained expanding how the wealthy survivors of the suicide station treated her, but to be fair any that treated her as an accessory to be played with rough would get her playing back and most of those wealthy punks were the type that never experienced pain before so easy to drive away with a bit of a twist of an arm.
