Takeshi didn't know what else to say to Shu other than to reiterate the point he'd already made. The majority of people who had ever met the little guy ended up adoring him, with some people, like the Shaharians, pretty much outright worshiping him. If he could get an entire race to celebrate him then surely the kid would have no problem making their own mother like him. What little he understood about a mother he knew they were supposed to love their children unconditionally. There were a lot worse things to be other than a little hairy or hyper too, like rude or have anger problems. Albeit he'd toned down his own issues quite a bit, so even that shouldn't be a big deal. There was a legitimate reason for their mother being absent, Takeshi wouldn't accept it otherwise. They were going to find her eventually, and she'd move in with them in his house, and they'd finally have a parent. A little late, given their ages, but better late than never he supposed. If Shu was going to try and be optimistic about all of this then so was he. If they kept their heads up who knows, they might find the woman sooner than they thought.

Korian wasn't going to touch the family topic, he wanted none of that. Besides, families were quite different depending on where you were born. Saiyan families were nothing like those on Uuonoe, and probably nothing like those on Earth. Kaesstra likely had its own family hierarchy and system if he asked T'charrl, and goodness knows how everyone else's home planets worked. At least the negotiations were coming to a close, or so the Commander thought. It was difficult enough agreeing to the demands already made, he wasn't very keen on giving so much leniency to someone as unpredictable as Viral. His last stipulation was particularly excessive, and for a moment Korian gave Viral an outright angry look. Remembering himself the Saiyan exhaled deeply, closing his eyes and frowning in displeasure. "We've spent countless hours, risked plenty of lives and traveled thousands upon thousands of kilometers to acquire that data... And you expect us to just share it with you...?" he asked, opening his eyes to look at Viral. "Considering the sensitive nature of the data I can't possibly give you that. It's got our stationed worlds on there as well, and routes for supplies. If that fell into the wrong hands it could turn our entire effort inside out." 

Ricken rolled his eyes, quite bored with all of this back and forth. The Beastman was just yanking Korian around and the guy was letting him, for the most part. He at least managed to deny the request for the map, albeit it was probably a bad choice. Plus in reality it was quite unlikely anything was to happen to the data if the Princes got a hold of it. They had their real techy friend along, no doubt he'd encode the data to prevent anyone from accessing it unauthorized. Looking up at his Commander the rebel stepped forward, crossing his own arms as he looked at Viral amused. "The Commander said he'd give you an apology, not everything but the bathroom sink." he pointed out, frowning a bit. Korian might need to make nice, but he didn't. And the thought of letting someone walk over them just because of a past incident annoyed him quite a bit. "Take what you got already, you should be glad we're giving even that much."

"Ricken, shut up," Korian snapped, looking back at the young rebel annoyed. Glaring until the boy looked away the Commander sighed, loathing the position he was in right now. Really if they could make a simpler map then perhaps they could hand that over, that wouldn't jeopardize their plans and supply routes. Then again, giving that data to the Princes and their friends would make it easier for them to help, should the need ever arise. It was a risk-reward decision, and as much as he hated to admit it the reward, another ship and a few good soldiers to defend their lines, overwrote the potential breaches. "Have Vegeta encrypt the data before you use it, and do not show anyone else what's on the map. Keep it in the bridge if you must, and let as few people see it as you can. I can't stress enough how important it is this information is kept secure." Hardly believing what he was doing Korian looked to his Lieutenant, nodding his head. "Sayomi, can you get them a copy of our maps?"
