Yumi was trying her hardest to sympathize with Viral, but he was right, she had no idea what his pain was like. She'd felt pain before, but nothing as long lasting or enduring as what her friend had been experiencing. That was just all the more reason for them to help him though, and all the more reason for her to be here to try and alleviate some of it. Really though... What could she offer? "We should be glad that hasn't happened yet, at least," Yumi said, following Viral inside. "Let's just hope Vegeta's work can keep it from getting any worse. At the very least I'd guess he can help that much." It wasn't much good to debate over what was going to happen, they would just have to wait and see at this point. Closing the door behind them she paused briefly and looked down at herself, frowning as she tried wiping away a few stray pieces of plant stuck to her clothes. "I don't suppose you're going to be all too mad if we get a change of clothes first, will you?"

"I talk to him plenty when I see him, but I can't go out of my way to see him. Don't you understand what I'm trying to say?" Vegeta asked, sounding quite exasperated, "I don't have the time to just sit and talk to him, I shouldn't even have the time to be doing this right now. Until I do manage to get him healthier again I don't have the luxury of doing anything but working." Nothing stopped Viral from coming to him, save for his disdain of being in a lab. That was the only place the work could be done at the moment so there wasn't much flexibility on Vegeta's part; the Beastman had to make the conscious decision to come along if he so chose to. Leaning back in his seat Vegeta closed his eyes once more, exhaling a bit unsteadily as he did so. "Viral's life is in my hands, my father is relying on me, Yumi is relying on me... Everyone is relying on my ability to help him, and yet I don't know if I can, at least not entirely." Looking back at Choi somberly he leaned forward, arms crossed on the table as he sighed, "Do you honestly think I don't care? Or that there aren't things I wish I could do differently? This is the only way."

It was a bit funny to think that Earth food was the best food Kabocha had in a long while, considering he hadn't been off of Kortal in all that long. Even back home the food was high quality, sure, but a bit bland in retrospect; food from Earth restaurants had all kinds of flavors. The King probably had something similar to that in his meals, but even nobles didn't really dine with him. Rubbing his stomach thoughtfully he finally sorted out what he wanted on the menu, taking a brief pause however to give Kai a funny look. "Wait... You want to build a house? Like... Live on Earth and build a house?" he asked, brows furrowing, "Wow... I didn't know we were actually planning on doing that." It was a nice enough world, and everyone they knew and didn't hate was basically from there, but Kabocha hadn't given much thought as to moving there to live. An idea crossed his mind towards the end and his face lit up, giving Kai a devilish grin as he gestured to himself, "Well how about this: Once I'm rich on Earth I'll employ you to cook for me! That way I know I'm getting good food and you get paid!"

Finding fruit ought to be easy, especially if Shu just used his nose to sniff it out. The little guy was practically a dog in that regard, if the dog was only trained to sniff out anything sweet growing on trees or bushes. Even being told not to eat any Shu was more than happy to go, though Takeshi fully expected his brother to try eating a bit anyways; if he did that was fine, he didn't much care so long as they got something back to their friend. Watching his sibling leap into the tree the older boy smirked, rolling his eyes before jumping up after him. Grabbing onto the branch he swung beneath Shu and propelled himself forward, laughing as he got off to an early, and probably short lived lead. "Come on, we've got fruit to find!"

Haku was left all on his own with the Kaesstrians and he hadn't a single clue as what to do with himself. He didn't do too well around those he didn't know; T'charrl and him were hardly on good terms and he had no clue who the big one was. Shifting around uncomfortably for a moment he figured he should try helping out as well seeing as everyone else was doing it, though he had no clue what he could do to help. "Your parents, huh...? That will be nice," he mumbled, moving over and squatting down, easing one of T'charrl's arms over his shoulder. There was a slight shiver as the hair on the Kaesstrian brushed against his neck but otherwise Haku was fine with this, certainly not freaking out as Takeshi might. Getting T'charrl to his feet with the help of L'esta he watched the bigger alien move off for a moment, frowning confused and glancing at the other boy. "Uh... So who is he...? Seems to know all of you."
