You know what's smart enough to know when something is really weird? Familiars.
You know what's smart enough to know that someone who comes staggering back to camp in the middle of the night probably needs care and sassy enough not to take no for an answer? Cat familiars.
So when Vegeta wakes up in the morning, he'll find fifteen pounds of grey feline fluff curled up on his chest, purring up a storm. This guy smells a little human and a little like the forest monkeys and it's a little weird, but he needs help and that's what she's doing. Purring promotes healing. You're welcome.
Once she's certain he's awake, she'll untuck one paw, reach out, and gently boop him on the nose, still purring. Good morning, weirdo. Don't get up yet. She's still helping.
