The longer they continued to walk the more Yumi began to feel how heavy T'charrl was. Or maybe it was just him becoming more dead weight, hard to say. He was certainly out of it right now, hopefully dousing him in some cold water would do the trick and wake him right up. Come to think of it was washing T'charrl going to be a good idea? Bugs hated water didn't they? Granted a Kaesstrian wasn't exactly a bug as they knew it, but close enough that he might just dislike it. "I don't think Shy would have left if T'charrl was like this before though, even if Takeshi told him to. Maybe he wanted to be on his own?" Wasn't completely unreasonable, if T'charrl knew the change was coming then he might have gone off on his own to avoid hurting anyone. It wouldn't be the first time he had changed either, he'd done so back on Earth just before they had left. Since he had near hurt his own mother from what she heard it wasn't that much of a stretch he would have gone and hid. "Let's just focus on getting him somewhere he can relax, and finding Kai. Once I know everyone is okay then [i]maybe[/i] I'll smack somebody." This was the first Takeshi had heard of T'charrl being hurt, though he wasn't all too worried. If Yumi and Choi were with him he was safe, and considering Kai didn't seem worried it couldn't be all bad. Shu was worried as ever, granted he'd worry if someone got so much as a splinter. Regardless they were going to go and see how their friend was doing even if he wasn't in any real bad way. "So you and him are what... Psychic or something...?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. "That's really cool, any chance you can show Shu and I how to do that? Then again... Having Shu in my head all the time..." That might get old pretty fast. He loved his little brother to death, but he asked enough questions and spoke enough just when they were together. Having Shu able to speak to him and ask questions whenever he wanted could prove to be... Interesting. There was the whole being caught off guard as Kai had been too, Takeshi could do without being randomly shouted at. More to the matter at hand, he probably ought to figure out what exactly was wrong with T'charrl. Unfortunately when questioning his friend for details it didn't appear that he had thought to ask. "Can't be too bad, if it was they wouldn't bother talking to us, they would just rush him to the medical bay, you know? Probably just tired from training." "The medicine is there for if you get worse, you're right. But the way you said it before you made it sound like it's your only option. It's a supplement, not a crutch. I just want you to be able to handle stress without the need for the medicine, and only use it if it's an absolute must." The fact no one wanted Viral on medicine in the first place was indicative enough of their reluctance to use it. "How about existing to get better, and to improve? You can't be disheartened every single time you fall, you have to be able to pick yourself up and move forward again. I know it must seem daunting right now, but you can get better. And you might be weaker than us right now, but there's nothing keeping you from becoming our equals, if not greater than us." Albeit why Viral wanted to be the strongest was a bit of a mystery. It was a matter of pride if nothing else as far as Vegeta knew. Pride before the fall, as the saying went, no good would come of the Beastman's obsession for strength. He might obtain it but then what? This line of thought was a bit too depressing for Vegeta's liking, but unfortunately they weren't done just yet. "If you lose sight of what it is you're supposed to do then you search. Ikura had no idea what you should do, but he isn't the only person who can give you direction. There's me, there's Yumi, and soon enough there'll be my father too."
