Videl Character Ask 1

First off, I wanna say I think Videl’s expression turned out a bit angrier than I’d originally intended it. I do think the juxtaposition of her face with Goten’s is funny, though, so at least there’s that.

Videl’s a character I have a bit of trouble pinning down, but one element to her personality (at least in Z, I don’t recall seeing it much in GT or Super) is her tendency to get annoyed (it plays into the tsundere qualities mentioned in the question). So I worked with that to explain her tendency to switch between dominate and submissive. I think one way to frame it that she doesn’t mention is that she’s more dominate with female partners and more submissive with male ones, though I don’t think that’s a hard rule (I could totally picture her being more dominant/demanding with Gohan, for instance, while perhaps being more submissive with Chi-Chi or Bulma). I name dropped Pearl in her response because the original picture for this Ask was gonna be her and Pearl from Steven Universe, but the image wasn’t turning out like I’d hoped so I switched gears. The Miss Piiza reference is to an old pic I did of the two of them together (in their Super designs) that I always liked. I’ve of course also shown her being more in control with other girls in pics like the one I did of her and Marron not too long ago, and plan to do more along those lines in the future.
