"No one knows why you left except for a few of us, don't worry. I wasn't going to let everyone know what had happened," Eslaria explained, smiling as she finally released T'charrl. She had figured that her son had solved his issue given his appearance, but from the sounds of it that wasn't the case. It was true he wasn't even truly his old self still, with those strange orbs and other protrusions on his body, yet it was still closer than when she had last seen him. Now she could actually recognize him, and other people would be able to as well. "People might notice, yes, but they won't say anything if they know better," the Queen said with a smirk, "You're a champion for our people and the first to be able to travel outside of our world, remember that. If anyone does say anything know you're better than it and they're wrong." She was rather elated to see T'charrl, but she couldn't be all smiles. Looking over at L'esta her gaze narrowed slightly, and she took a small step forward as the Captain began smiling uneasily. "So you ran into my son and I assume confronted him? Or did you just happen to see a stranger and let them walk by aimlessly...?" Oh boy, this was exactly what L'esta had been dreading. Well, he couldn't lie to the Queen, he was much too loyal for that even if he was going to get into trouble for it. Standing at attention as she addressed him the Captain sighed, lowering his gaze before dropping to one knee and hanging his head. "Yes, Your Majesty, I'm afraid I did. I was unaware of his identity and treated him as I would any other unknown entity," he explained, lifting his head to look at Eslaria. All he was getting in return was a hard stare, making L'esta move uncomfortably in his spot before bowing his head again, "That's no excuse and I know it. I shouldn't have jumped to violence as quickly as I did, subdued him rather than attacked. It's my mistake --" He'd likely have continued to apologize had he not been smacked on the back of the head, groaning as he clasped his skull with his hands. Okay, he deserved that, probably more even for what he had done to T'charrl. Noticing the Queen moving back to her son the Captain rose to his feet, rubbing at his head gingerly as he did so. "An excellent welcome home gift, attacking your Prince! I've half the mind to do whatever you had done to him just as retribution, Captain. Be lucky I'm a little more patient with my son being home." T'charrl did appear fine now, to be fair, so she wasn't going to impose any immediate punishment. Placing two arms around her son protectively she glanced over at Shu, Takeshi and Haku curiously, wondering why they were so giddy. Odd children, and she didn't even know the third, but she supposed they did what she had asked; not everything was back to normal, but it was a great deal better than before. "You three!" Eslaria snapped, watching at least Haku and Takeshi jump, "I should thank you all for helping the Prince. Will you stay for a meal to celebrate his coming home?" Takeshi couldn't help but feel envious of T'charrl, even when he tried to pay no mind to it. There was the itching urge to try and seek out their own again, but he knew there was a lot that needed to be done before he and Shu could even attempt a search again. There were matters to take care of here on Kaesstra, then with their father and who knows what else may come up. "Yeah... Having a mom around would be awesome," the older boy mumbled, smiling a bit as he nodded to himself. T'charrl appeared real happy to be home so it was probably best the rest of them wait at the door; no reason to barge in and ruin the moment. Things happened to change a little bit when the Queen started questioning L'esta, and Takeshi had a pretty darn good idea where it was going. Cringing when the Captain was hit he looked over at Shu, smiling nervously. "I'm sure we'll get to say hi soon..." he began, jumping when Eslaria yelled at them. Looking over like a deer in the headlights Takeshi paused for a second when he realized they were being invited to a meal, relaxing and nodding his head. "Uh... Yeah! Of course we will! Is T'charrl okay with some friends coming along too?" Though stealing the Dragonball had happened quite some time ago this was the first that had been said of any wish. In retrospect it made perfect sense, as what other reason would Viral have stolen it? Out of spite perhaps, though Vegeta never knew the Beastman to be a very spiteful person. Okay then, so he had a wish, but just what was it? "It does too matter what it was, and I'm curious now. You can't bring it up and then not explain it to us," Vegeta said, frowning as he folded his arms. "If you had explained this to me prior I may even have helped you, rather than punish you by sending you off. I do wish you wouldn't be so opposed to seeking my help when I've made it clear I'm willing to give it." "You never told anyone you had a wish, Viral. I'm with Vegeta, we could have helped you get it fulfilled," Yumi added, smiling as she tucked her hands behind her back. "Your wish wasn't selfish, or stupid. It was yours, that makes it special. Everyone had a wish probably, I mean look at Shu and Takeshi. They were going to wish to see their mother, and that's only something they would really enjoy, don't you think? But I still don't consider that selfish because it would have made them happy, and that's good enough for me. So if your wish made you happy I wouldn't have minded at all." It wasn't impossible to say Viral still couldn't have his wish granted. Sure, Earth's Dragonballs were out of commission for a while yet, but the Namekian Dragonballs were up for use. Reviving Vegeta's parents would use two wishes, but they still had a third, didn't they? "Dreams can be made real if you work for it, or wish for it, in this case," Yumi said cheerfully, "Go on, tell us. What was it you were wanting to wish for?"
