Yumi decided just to quit talking, all it was doing was aggravating Viral. Shame too, sparring like this was just sort of dull if you didn't chat with your partner. Ah well, this wasn't wholly for her enjoyment anyways, and it wasn't as if she didn't want to do it in spite of silence. That was probably better for her either way as she could focus more on what she was doing. Good thing, that, since Viral was hitting a bit harder now than before. Considering he'd needed help walking here she hadn't quite expected this level of strength out of him, it was making things interesting. She was actually having to go on the defensive and try to avoid being hit, not what she expected out of this. Yumi could block the blows easily enough but had to keep backing up to keep herself at a safe distance and pretty soon they were walking around on the mat in circles. Eventually one of Viral's attacks did get through, a jab that caught her shoulder and nearly made her spin around where she stood. Stopping herself she again got a nice hit on the chest, wincing as she stumbled back more and raised her fists protectively, blocking a few subsequent blows. Finally she tried to get back to attacking on her part, pushing Viral's arms away when they came at her and beginning to punch in quick succession, hoping to make Viral back up this time. 

Takeshi couldn't really care what they did at this point, so long as it made Shu feel better. Whether it was playing games, learning, or even that weird grooming thing he liked to do. Anything was preferable to seeing his little brother all gloomy and upset. "If you feel like you need a nap then we'll take one. If not I guess we can play more?" he asked, shrugging as he skewered another piece of bacon-sausage and popped its entirety into his mouth. "We sleep too much on this stupid ship, I don't like it. I want to get back onto a planet soon, otherwise I might go nuts." How funny it would be if he knew Shu had been thinking the exact same thing seconds before. Apparently saying he would 'go nuts' struck a chord in their friends, because Takeshi swore he saw them flinch out of the corner of his eye. Probably over something related to Shu, no doubt. Tch... He spent more time with his little brother than anyone else and he had no worries, there was no reason for them to be such babies about it. "The moon's out all the time, you know," he pointed out, smiling as he paused to let out a burp, "Ah... Just the moon changes depending on where we are. Tons of moons in space, I guess that could make it real confusing." Actually, all of this traveling in general was just a pain. When they had been back on Earth getting to sleep had been a chore in of itself, and the longer they were out, Takeshi reasoned, the worse it would be. Hopefully they'd get back home sooner than last time...
