Viral saw no reason to keep him around or for her to have company when she already knew the basics, not to mention there was the fact he still suffered from mood swings and could endanger her life and her task. He didn’t think he needed to hang around her all the time just to make sure she was going to actually catch something, possibly eventually learning she couldn’t always have someone around her to make sure she was doing it right. A hunter always went in alone or as a pack for bigger prey, but Yumi was completely able to hunt by herself if she managed to behave. For him, he had too much on his mind to be able to concentrate on hunting with her and keeping calm, even snapping at her instead of saying why he wanted to stop by the lake. He didn’t know how much time he had left or how his treatment was going to go, but he couldn’t help but feel pessimistic about it. He didn’t get to have time like this just to watch the world go by and it had been a long time since he had been anywhere near water, even if the water was otherworldly and simply a lake. Keeping quiet he sighed a little, shifting a knee up and resting his arm on top, giving it a look over before resting his chin on top. Barely giving Yumi a look as she sat by him he only frowned, not much caring about the creature or what she decided to do. The water was his kind of environment, or rather one of them he could find calm in. He never got to go near water beyond what he experienced in that brief time of freedom he had when he was searching for the Dragonballs; shame that turned out to be not worth his while at all. “That’s what the wild is like…” he spoke lowly, just sounding fed up already. They had barely started and he already had enough, even if Yumi was the reason they were out here, “If we waited here long enough, something might appear…hmph, whatever. I don’t know what it is you wish to find here, especially when creatures probably get enough water from fruit or whatever anyway…”
 
Kai definitely didn’t feel the same courage the others did when it came to talking about the King and fighting against his men, probably because he knew he and his brother only got lucky because of their fighting style. They weren’t as strong as an Elite, there was no way they could stand up against one and even Choi knew this. It wasn’t easy to admit they had been the two weakest in their team when the King assigned them all meaning they were some of the weakest on the ship. It wasn’t much encouragement to rely on and it did manage to make him feel worried that he may never gain freedom and easily put him off speaking to girls over the possibility of finding a mate or even a friend. “Yeah, maybe we can win, but there will be casualties and I want to wait and see whether I become one of them. We’ll see what happens and whether we survive long enough to think about our future”.
 
Despite how Kai was feeling, Choi was not feeling calm at all and was about ready to slap Kabocha for his assumptions, especially when he should know Yumi was the one who should decide for herself whether she wanted that out of him. It was Yumi that asked to go out with him and it was Yumi who ultimately held the most control over their relationship. She was a scary woman and not to mention she had powerful friends and he was just one little guy. “Well don’t think about it unless you’re willing to ask Yumi herself! If you’re even brave enough. You can barely speak to her nevermind ask something like that!”
 
T’charrl didn’t like it when it was this quiet, especially when he was unable to tell whether there was someone out there or not without coming out of his camouflage. It could be Takeshi that was nearby and he was just being paranoid but he didn’t really want to take that risk. Keeping pretty low to the ground he shuffled along with his own interests remaining above playing, just trying to get around and along without being caught out by Takeshi. He could admit that it wasn’t Takeshi who was the problem when it came to getting caught but rather everything else he needed to be aware of. Being alone for so long had made him paranoid, but very quickly that paranoia paid off as he heard someone shout in his direction. It wasn’t one of the others, it was definitely another Kaesstrian and very quickly he sussed that out to be another threat. With wide eyes they quickly shifted back, his first instinct to remain still coming straight back into play in hope that they think he was anybody otherwise.
 
Shu didn’t know if Takeshi was going to spot him or not for the teasing, finding it all too amusing that Takeshi was as bad as he was at finding others. Throwing the rock in Takeshi’s direction made Shu hide away immediately, feeling all sorts of giddy over Takeshi’s possibly reaction over it. Waiting with great interest over what he might do he held his hands over his mouth when Takeshi went off his head instead, seeing his frustration practically explode over a little rock. Looking around again he found another rock, one smaller than the other and instead decided to throw it away in another direction, the sound it made when hitting off a tree proving to be a pretty loud knock.
