Shu could only stare at Takeshi with confusion, wondering what he meant by that and whether he was blaming him for the distraction. They were playing earlier and he was still hyped up, but Takeshi didn’t need to play with him if he didn’t want to. Listening to Takeshi pleading with him to try and reconsider his words, he sighed and bounced off towards Takeshi a little more, “I listened while I played! I am good at it”, he spoke quickly, giving a nod with each bounce, “I am very smart because Miss Yumi said so!” He didn’t need to be blamed for that one, even if Takeshi tried to recover from that. Bouncing around in the snow as he followed on after Viral, he watched him curiously as he argued with Takeshi before having a watch at what Takeshi was doing, feeling confused over it before letting out a gasp as he threw it at Viral. That was not a good idea from Takeshi, especially when Viral was not the most playful person out there.

Viral was certainly annoyed at Takeshi for his laziness, especially when he was supposed to be the King’s son. He didn’t need to be the leader all the time even if he had all that experience with him, just hoping maybe Takeshi would act responsible for once, “Then next time, learn to pay attention! If it turned out I couldn’t go then what would you do?” he questioned him, having about enough of his nonsense. If Takeshi expected everyone to do everything for him then he had another thing coming, but despite that Viral didn’t trust Takeshi with handling the Narbu. He was just there to act as a representative as far as he was concerned. Continuing on with his run, the moment something slammed into his back he turned around, unsheathing his blade as he swiped it through the snow with great force, sending a wave of snow at Takeshi. He was startled pretty badly by that, but he was not without anger over it, “Stupid ape! What was that for??”
