The whole grooming business wasn't half bad as Takeshi had worried it would be. Odd yes, but not bad. It wasn't something he could see himself and Shu doing on a regular basis but maybe as an occasion thing. The older boy did hope that they might find another way of cleaning one another that wasn't quite as strange as this, or another way they could socialize. What else did monkeys do for socializing? Throw poop? Eh... Maybe grooming wasn't such a bad idea then. Hardly realizing Shu had stopped, having zoned out a bit for the duration Takeshi blinked when his brother appeared before him, more than ready to cash in on getting his turn. Darn, there was a bit of a hope before that the younger boy would wait, apparently not. "Uh... Yeah, Your turn buddy!" he replied, smiling as he got up and shuffled around to Shu's back. They had only bathed recently so nothing was in there that would surprise him, he'd made darn sure of that before. Still the fact he was grooming someone was a bit strange and Takeshi wasn't wholly sure how to even begin. Chuckling under his breath he shrugged his shoulders, figuring to hell with it, he'd try copying what Shu had done. Placing his hands on his sibling's head he began parting the hair gently, pretty much just repeating that as he 'groomed' the other boy. Not very hard, but definitely unusual.

"How could you be doing it wrong but getting closer to figuring it out, huh?" Takeshi asked, smiling as he continued working on Shu, "You've gotta be doing it right if you're getting somewhere with it. Whether or not you can do it, well, the only way you'll know is by trying." Of course T'charrl hadn't done something like this before, none of them had. Even Viral was able to change back to a degree now and his situation was arguably worse than the Kaesstrian's. Shu didn't get stuck in his form, that generally changed whenever he settled down and stopped being angry. In a way what their friend was doing was completely unique, no one else in their group would have to do it. Parting Shu's hair right down the middle, Takeshi glanced over his head for a minute before shrugging, still not sure what he was doing. Rather than really look for anything then he just continued parting Shu's hair, and trying to undo the occasional knot that he came across. "What part are you missing anyways? Maybe if you tell us then we can help you out, describe what you need or whatever. Could save you some time?"

Yumi wasn't trying to belittle Viral or make light of hunting, she knew how much he enjoyed doing it. She was just excited, she'd be hunting in a way that the Beastman had all along and that in of itself was going to be fun. She could finally get a better idea of how Viral handled himself, maybe, and get a little insight into what he was like. As of late she had been wondering just how animalistic Viral was in his behaviors, now she might see a bit more of where he was coming from. There was nothing inherently wrong with being primal, in a way it was sort of exciting. The unbridled nature of chasing around prey wasn't all that bad really, humans did plenty of worse things to animals they wanted than animals themselves did. She had seen Viral hunt before, and his killings were always quick and clean, unlike shooting some poor creature and letting it bleed out. "To be fair my mother got angry at a lot of things. Like me learning martial arts, or being a tomboy, or hanging out with Vegeta. If I lived her way then I would have been a recluse," Yumi pointed out with a smile, "She just wanted to protect me though, I realized that. And whether she fully trusted you doesn't matter much. I don't need her approval to spend time with you and you shouldn't need it either." So she might be a bit rebellious of her parents, ironic considering she expected the boys and the others around her to behave usually. "Maybe... We should cook our own meals then," she added, smiling sheepishly, "That might work better."
