Gohan Is The Funniest Ever Version Of A Burnt Out Gifted Kid Because The Thing He’s Burnt Out On Is

Inspired by @chickenoptyrx's art and idea which I twisted it to make it depressing as usual 🤪

what if the egg dragoon not only had a brain all along, but-said brain was a smug SMARTASS

anyway, cue the orchestra

this video has been all that i think about for days now

You have a fairly large amount of Uub content (WAY more than the majority of DB artists/writers tbh) and you also seem to agree with the Janemba Kid Buu besties headcanon, so I wonder what it'd be like if you combined them?

Kid Buu and Janemba meet before time itself, becoming besties, only for Buu to one day dissapear, everything it once adored now contorted and warped. It leaves hell for the first time in eons, pulling any energy from the residents of hell it can (there seems to be far more than last time it formed, but it doesn't care to count them) and appearing in front of two figures. Goku, the one who aided in taking its form before and... Buu, but not Buu. A strange not quite Buu, apparently called "Uub" as Goku tells him to hide behind him. This confuses Janemba. Buu didn't hide, he fought and maimed until he either won or got bored. He teleports to him, and simply tries to speak with his old friend.

Uub doesn't know who this strange red person is, but he somehow knew his name was Janemba, even before Goku said it with more panic than he had ever seen on the man. But, stranger still, some itch on his subconscious, thoughts he wouldn't learn aren't his own till many years later, tell him to comfort this creature. He doesn't fear Janemba, even as he draws a sword. He knows that Janemba would never hurt him, even though he doesn't know how.

He sees a friend in him.

... Janemba is confused, shocked, every emotion under the sun. And Goku, always one for a risk for the greater good, powers down and tells Janemba what happened to Buu and Uub. Janemba is even more shocked, but he partly gets it. He feels saddened, betrayed and worse seeing Buu move on without him, but sensing his energy shows that he is the happiest he had ever seen him. Buu was always a conflicted soul, one that would bounce between happy and saddened, in control to following orders in a single second, and seeing Buu- no... Uub smiling at him with so little worry on his face is enough for him to move on. He gives a smile, the rare kind he hasn't done ever since he lost Buu, his face taking a moment to even remember how, before dissapearing back to his home.

(And if Goku would later feel a surge of power months later, only to find a child with an origin that even he wouldn't need to ask Bulma's help for, then he would be sure to tell Uub... eventually. Not Vegeta though, not till the child is much older)

[I appreciate you reading this far for what is basically fanfic. I originally planned for this to be shorter and focus more on their potential interactions as reincarnations, but the ideas for the start of it got away from me until I had all this written out]

i 100% forgot to answer this when i got it forever ago but. this is so cute and nice but anon i have to tell you. i have written a scenario almost exactly like this in me and my friend moths dms ages ago THIS IS NOT TO DETRACT from your very fun janemba and uub story, I love it a lot! but I do think it's very real of us uub buu and janemba enjoyers to have the same mind

You can replace [ACTIVITY YOU ENJOY] with [SCROLLING] but watch out. This sucks bad 👍

Thanks so much for your support, @jasonsstuffiguess
