Feeling all of these emotions coming from Viral was throwing Yumi off in so many ways. She had no idea why or how she was picking them up nor what she should do about it. Maybe it was the fact she was now part Beastman, there might be some weird link between her and Viral. Though she had never noticed it before so that didn't make sense, she'd have picked up on it sooner. There was so much she had no clue about right now and there was no time to think it over, Viral was on the attack yet again. Her fitful pleas had done her no good, she'd have to try and find some way to settle down her friend. Poising to dodge any attack she dashed to the side as the Beastman pounced on where she had stood. There had to be something she could do about this, some way she could help Viral without hurting him. It was incredibly difficult to think about anything though with the Beastman bearing down on her. Reaching out when he closed in again she placed a hand on his shoulder and jumped up, using her friend as a sort of springboard to get over and land behind him. Just to keep him away she reached back and pushed against his rear with her foot, hoping to knock him off balance and get room between them. She needed time to think and figure out how to fix this, and find out why she was feeling what Viral was feeling. "There's nothing keeping you from getting that strong, you can do it if you really work your tail off. I know I'm going to get that strong some day!" Well, maybe not quite as strong as Goku had been. He'd reached a level of strength that was, simply put, absurd. Far as Takeshi could recall the only beings that could even fight with Shu's idol were gods, and even then it was a fairly close contest. So maybe not exactly as strong as Goku, but it'd be neat if they could reach Super Saiyan, or an Ascended Saiyan, or anything for that matter. He and Shu were the children of a Super Saiyan too, and while he was scarcely grateful for their Father he figured their heritage gave them a bit of a plus when they were trying to get stronger. The two of them fighting all out were likely the strongest here currently, and that was certainly a nice feeling to have. Poor Shu, while his older brother was off living in some fantasy world the little guy was still a nervous mess. "You're not going to be alone again, I'll make damn sure of that. No one's going to do that kind of thing to you ever again buddy." Takeshi would sooner die preventing it then let Shu be subjected to that kind of probing and testing again. His little brother was much too sensitive for that sort of thing, anyone was really, even Viral had broken down from it. This was nice, getting to just have a pleasant little chat with Shu. Nice right up until Kai had to go and interrupt them, what a mood killer! Glancing over at their friend, Takeshi smiled slightly before nodding his head, getting up from his chair as well. "Alright, we'll do it since you guys cooked. I'm sure Kabocha couldn't be bothered to do something so... Menial," he joked, grinning at his friend's annoyed response. As if washing dishes was difficult at all to do, and it really wasn't all that bad considering the food wasn't exactly messy. They could have this done in minutes then be well on their way to seeing T'charrl, who hopefully given a bit more time would be open to playing. Starting to grab plates and stack them up he glanced over at Shu, nodding to the silverware and cups. "Get all of that and bring it to the kitchen, will you? Just put it right in the sink for me, I'll be right in." Kabocha bit his tongue, refusing to take the bait and instead brushed Takeshi off. His friend was right though, no way was he going to wash dishes, it was disgusting. The plates were all greasy, and the silverware had been in someone else's mouth. If the brothers were more than happy to take the job he wasn't going to deprive them of that chance. Getting out of his seat he pushed his dishes over to Takeshi, smirking as he stepped away from the table. "You two have fun washing those, be sure not to miss anything." Turning then to Kai and Choi he nodded before making his way towards the door, rubbing his hands together then against his pants to get a bit of lingering mess of. "Thanks for the food you two! I'm going to go make sure mother and father haven't killed each other!" Or rather his mother hadn't gone all mental and killed his father, the latter was just a layabout. Sure he was a noble and had power in his own right, but out here that meant very little to these people. Since strength mattered most right now his mother was actually the more important of the two, and she'd certainly been enjoying the change in standings.
