"So if it drags out then it hurts, but if it's quick..." Yumi mumbled, starting to piece things together. Made sense, the longer you had to endure something sometimes it became worse, in more way than one. Quick and painless wasn't just some random saying after all, there was actually truth behind it. She almost dared to suggest being rid of the transformations entirely. Not that she knew how that would be done, or if it even was possible. All the changes seemed to do was upset Viral though, so shouldn't he be better off if he wasn't going to transform? She'd have to pop that question to Vegeta later, though she could already foresee a big, bold 'no' as a reply. Looking towards the kitchen for a moment she glanced back at Viral, hoping to reassure him still about improving. "T'charrl doesn't really use Ki so much, but look how strong he is," Yumi pointed out, smiling, "And if he can do it, some kid who's nowhere near as battle hardened as you, then you can definitely catch up and surpass everyone. You might not have Ki, but you've got your own kind of energy, and yours is constantly replenished by the sun. That makes you stronger than any of us, because you don't run out." It was difficult staying optimistic when Viral was so down, but she had to for his sake. Maybe if she kept it up he'd get tired of being grumpy and depressed, perhaps even smile for a change. "The King won't kill you, or any of us. We'll all be there, and we're all going to watch each other's backs."

Takeshi was just getting all sorts of flustered, having weights thrown at him and Kai be a pain as usual. He was almost expecting some kind of snarky comment out of Choi just for the cherry on top, that would make him really blow a fuse. If everyone was going to be down here in the training hall then they should make the most use of it that they could. There were two groups of three, relatively close in strength. Since these three were so adamant about staying he was going to put them up to some sparring. In particular he wanted to see what pair of siblings were better fighters, himself and Shu or Kai and Choi. Waving down the twins he smirked, sharing the idea with them excitably. They didn't hate the idea, though Choi seemed uneasy. "Aw, what's wrong? Scared of Shu?" Takeshi teased, grinning for a moment before it waned, instead frowning as he pointed at Choi. "What a minute, so does that mean you're more scared of him than of me? I'm the stronger of the two, you know! You should be worried about fighting me!"

And there went Takeshi raving as he did. Kabocha couldn't blame Choi for his decision, he wouldn't want to face off against Shu either. Kai likely didn't as well, but he was the only one of their group who wouldn't complain. He had enough problems of his own going up against T'charrl. The last time they'd fought with him he'd gone all giant bug and created a massive tree in the middle of a city. Not the most reassuring notion going into a fight, even if it was just a spar. "Heh... Uh yeah, looks like it's me and him," he answered, smiling nervously as he rubbed at his head. Hooray, well with any luck this would be a short session. Looking over at T'charrl he slowly walked towards him, giving his knuckles a cracking as he did so. "So uh... We're fighting. Mind not turning me into a giant tree while we do?"
