"Ah... But they do care Viral. Their concern for you is a mark of your friendship, it's expected frankly. No one wants to see you in this state, myself included." There went the objectivity again, drat. Perhaps not a bad thing though, it certainly came across as Viral needing some positive reinforcement. It wasn't as easy as simply giving it however, he wasn't receptive to any sort of positivity in his current condition. The more they spoke and the more he heard Ikura was getting a clearer idea for what was going through Viral's mind. Diagnosing and treating him then was going to be fairly easy, so long as he was patient and let the process work itself through. 

Ah, the abilities, that was the source of confusion. Curious though, Ikura hadn't expected Viral to forget those with his memory wipe. An unfortunate side effect, one that had clearly caused some distress. "The powers you've got, that's causing you distress? I see... So I would imagine you'd wish to regain control over it." That would most likely require retraining, which unfortunately again had been handled by Aito. It wasn't a total loss, Ikura was thoroughly aware of each transformation and the prerequisites for bringing them about. If he recalled the words of his former associate rightly Viral could trigger them on will as well, but that methodology was lost to him right now. Perhaps consulting his notes would shine some light on that subject. Ah, at least he could clear things up a little right now. "Your forms, all four of them, are given to you by us, and each for a particular reason. I'm sorry to hear that you've lost your control of them, but please allow me to explain them. Perhaps having knowledge of each will help you better reign them in."

"Your initial form, one I would imagine you're familiar with, is your reptilian form. This is your primary combat form as it has the greatest raw physical strength and makes the most offensive uses of your capabilities. Secondly is your feline form, which by the sounds of it you've become acquainted with." Ikura smiled slightly as he stood up from his seat, walking over to the window and looking out in thought for a moment. "The feline form, as it might suggest, is for speed and nimbleness. It was intended for you to travel quickly. Your third 'Beast' form is a shark-humanoid, with rather coarse and durable skin and razor sharp teeth. This form quite obviously is best suited for amphibious and aquatic combat and is arguably the most durable of the three. The 'metal monstrosity' you mentioned is your Enki. That is perhaps the most useful out of all three, arguably, and is a collaboration by the three of us. Enki harnesses and amplifies your power and also enables you to traverse environments that would otherwise be harmful. Coupled with its innate ability to gather energy for you during its use its by far the most sustainable form you've got. Unfortunately it lacks the raw durability, speed or strength of the other three, but is the jack of all trades if you will. Each form, you see, was given with a specific purpose in mind. Your current being encompasses each of the three beastial forms, the Enki is solely from your energy."

"Now then... I'm sorry to say I can't tell you how to control them, not just yet. I'd have to go over my documents to see if I've notes on the matter, or you'd have to locate Aito's. can tell you that the forms will trigger by default under states of great duress. Things such as starvation, physical injury and the need to protect yourself or others can bring about these forms, but even then you do have the power to stave off a change. If we can just rekindle your knowledge of how to do that then you'd not have to worry about them. With my notes, if you'll give me the time to consult them, I can figure out how you precisely control them as well." Ikura was glad to be actually able to help, but they were getting a bit off topic. The primary concern was his mental well being, not the forms. Yet perhaps it wasn't a total deviation, Viral did sound to be upset over his transformations. Maybe a sound mind on that subject would help ease his stress a little. "Any other questions in that regard?"
