Two for the feels and maybe able to find some common ground

[Despite that need to talk, Vegeta somehow manages to pause during this rambling from the Doctor. It's difficult, but he really is well aware of the need for dramatics at time, even if he doesn't seem like it. It's mostly behind him, his younger days he enjoyed making sure he came across in a certain way; intimidating and wild. Less so as he's aged, but it's not totally gone.

So there is that pause, then,]
That certainly explains much about what you've said and how you've acted so far. [No sense of judgement behind it, just that pieces were falling into place to help explain it.

Vegeta then offering back,]
I'm from a people of warriors, our purpose is to fight, and for much of our history, to destroy and kill. It took me years to understand how pointless and damaging that was, how empty it was to kill off those who couldn't really oppose me, to accept that there was no need for needless killing. For any joy I had felt for it becoming hollow and pointless compared to what I really needed. It didn't make me stronger, didn't make me better, it was all pointless. But it was the way of my people before they and our planet was destroyed.

I may not had killed them like you did your own people, but I know my universe is better off without the Saiyans. We did too much damage, and would only continue to destroy. My people were destroyed out of fear and greed, yours were out of a need to prevent a worst situation. [Despite all of this, Vegeta seems unmoved from this. He's accepted this long ago. His people were gone, the damage they had done, the legacy they had left. And if they had learned what he had over the years, the power of Super Saiyan and above, it would not end well for their universe.

On saying that,]
Though there is one I would enjoy meeting his end again and again at the hand of a Saiyan. Not my own, yet. Next time though. [Freeza will die from his hand the next time, not Trunks', not Goku's, but Vegeta's.]
