Shu gave Takeshi a smile back, feeling fairly happy that Takeshi was wanting to do things with him that didn’t involve just talking or trying to please him with playtime. He wanted to see what Takeshi did in his spare time and if he liked watching these movies then he would happily watch them with him, especially if it meant he was going to have fruit with it. He didn’t much care for that, especially when he saw it as an opportunity to relax with his brother for once. “I don’t mind. I want to know what it’s like. I just want to know more”, he smiled, raising his shoulders when Takeshi ruffled his hair. Things were going to get better somehow, he was sure of it; however, despite getting all happy and hopeful of the future he gasped when Vegeta called through the scouter, hardly expecting it to spring into life. He really didn't understand what was going on but he was immediately trying to recover his hearing by the time Takeshi was shouting. Yelping when he was grabbed he had no choice but to follow through, looking up at him before to his friend.

T’charrl was definitely finding it hard to keep his cool around this man when all he could do was question his family’s heritage and traditions, especially when it was so long ago. What he did was the now and not what happened in the past, especially when what happened in the past had been going on for generations. This man had no right to question his heritage, especially after what he did. Glaring at him he tried to keep his cool, especially when it was much too difficult to keep in control of his power when he got stressed. Listening to his reasoning he hissed through his teeth. “Relinquish? I was born into this position and my power was not stolen like you tried to do! What makes you think I am selfish when I never had a choice?? I am the one who will lead our people into a better future and I gladly accept that challenge! You can just sit there and watch the world pass by!” Not a moment too soon had Takeshi immediately called his name, looking around immediately before back to the General, glaring at him before he turned around. “I’m coming. I was done here, anyway…”

Viral could’ve said he had it worse if he was able to, but the tank deadened his nerves and gave him slight relief from his constant pain. He was still trying to fight what was happening to him with the cells implanted into him giving temporary relief from the struggle, but nothing changed. His body was still the same and while the sparks of energy had calmed down he still twitched and struggled with what was going on in his head. Sleeping for him was proving to be too difficult to accomplish, even just trying to relax was a completely difficult experience that only proved to give him mental suffering. It was a forced sleep and never a good option when struggling for sleep. He only did what he thought was right and was now suffering for it, his inability to control his pride probably costing him his health.

Shu didn’t really know what was going on but he was happy that they were going to get his fried help finally, especially when he hadn’t improved since being on Kaesstra. Maybe he had been able to relax a bit but his condition wasn’t getting any better, seeing how he wasn’t getting back to normal and still not eating with them. He was a little sad over his friend but he was trying to not let it get to him. He was more worried over his friend T’charrl with how he came out of the prison, only taking a brief time to say bye to his parents before returning to the ship. His friend was pretty dedicated to helping them out but he didn’t get the help he needed and that made him a little upset. He knew how much his friend wanted to find control and he still didn’t have it. At least he was going to be able to keep in touch with his parents better now that his nerves had calmed over what he looked like sometimes, but it still made him sad when he had to leave so soon. They really should had been trying to help him more, but unfortunately when they were so close to an answer their other friend’s suffering was slowly starting to lead to possibly his death. Sitting around with Takeshi he wiggled his toes as Takeshi mumbled angrily to himself, Shu kept himself calm by thinking positively, smiling at Takeshi. “Mister Viral will be okay! I’m sure he will be! Mister Viral is very strong, he’s not too different, right? Not yet, at least. I mean…friend will fight you soon”, he spoke slowly, trying to think through it all before he scratched his head quickly, “Do you only want to fight him? I mean…there’s more maybe, yes? I don’t know what Mister Viral does, though…”

T’charrl had gone back to his room for now, not feeling too confident in himself. While he was a little upset that he had to leave so quickly his biggest problem was he was no closer to knowing what he was supposed to do with his power, especially when he didn’t know if he wanted rid of it or not. He was scared of becoming no better than the General, but with the power he could protect the spirit and his people. He would no longer be vulnerable even if he knew how to use Ki, the spirit wouldn’t be disturbed again and he could continue to be near unstoppable in battle. What the General said was really getting to him, tearing his mind apart as he grew confused to what he actually wanted to do and what he was. His parents were very supportive, they didn’t care what he looked like and travelling briefly made him feel more confident about finding his form; however, all the stress the General caused him and his worry that he somehow managed to cause their friend suffering was really starting to get to him. That attack was probably meant for him and instead he ran off to a dead end only to be mentally kicked around by the General. Struggling to keep himself together he paced around his room, trying to force himself to calm down.
