Takeshi enjoyed showing off quite a bit, and maybe it was some incentive for Shu and T'charrl to train even harder. After putting on his little light show he turned to face the others, grinning triumphantly. They had enjoyed the display, albeit his friend was rather quick to question whether it was safe or not around others. His smile waning a little the Saiyan looked away, folding his hands behind his back as he scuffed a foot in the sand. "Well... I don't know about completely safe, but it's safe enough. Besides, I'd never use it if a friend was standing too close anyways, I wouldn't want to risk hurting them." A volley like that couldn't possibly be 100 percent safe, he couldn't even truly say he knew the path of each blast, only their destination. Chuckling softly he rubbed the back of his neck, stopping as he began to watch Shu bounce around him excitably. Smiling again Takeshi shook his head, wagging a finger in his brother's face playfully. "Nuh uh, you have to learn a lot more before you can even try something like that. But you do it by sending out Ki in a sort of curve, and it'll fly like that on its own. If you push more Ki behind your blast its even easier to direct, depends on how you want to do it." "So that's something you can do if you practice really hard, but we're not there yet. You two still need to work out just getting a ball and making it out far enough. Hm... How to do that..." Problem with them being out here on the ocean, there were no markers for them to judge distance. Just a ton of water and a tree or two on the island, which they couldn't well blow up. Takeshi gave his head a thoughtful scratching for a moment as he mulled it over, looking around the area for something. Spotting a small, old boat tucked up alongside the house he grinned, marching over and yanking it off of the frame it was sat on. Dragging it along behind him he placed it on the shore, nodding approvingly. "How about this? I'll put the boat out on the water a little far away, and I want to see how close you two can get to hitting it without actually hitting it. Each time you get close I'll move it further until I think you've got it down. Want to give that a try?" Roshi frowned as he folded his arms over his chest, giving Viral a rather skeptical look. "You don't change...? So I suppose you're the exact same person as you were when you were created...?" Unless the Beastman was always depressed he would say no. Even not in that regard the hermit knew things had changed, Viral as a person had grown. Physical growth was not all that shaped people, and frankly judging oneself just by physical growth alone was pretty shallow. Funny thing for a man obsessed with women's beauty to think, but it was true. "Your appearance might not have changed, but who you are has. Your role in life, how you see things, the relationships around you, those all grow and will keep growing. You've got to look at everything as an entire picture to see growth sometimes." A lot more went into life than just oneself after all, Roshi wondered whether or not Viral understood that. Brushing off the 'little ancient body' comment Roshi continued to hear out Viral, not very enthusiastic with the man's outlook. Everything was so grim with this one, he supposed that was a byproduct of being depressed. It was rather hard speaking to someone like this, but feeling rather empathetic Roshi had to try saying something at least. "Killing people is an unfortunate truth when you're a warrior. It can't be avoided much as we'd like to sometimes. You're not alone in that regard, Viral. Plenty of people have had to take a life for good reasons, and not everyone can always accept what they had done. But understanding that sometimes it is necessary helps." The Beastman was a good person, that was undoubtedly true. Roshi didn't believe for a moment the man beside him was truly evil in any regard, simply lost and confused. He needed to be guided back to the side of good before he ended up falling deeper into darkness, how he wasn't sure. "I've done some things I wish I hadn't, and I've lived with them. If things bother you then do something to make good with your conscience, it's what I've done." Smiling thoughtfully the hermit slowly stood up, looking down at Viral. "Come with me? I'd like to show you something."
