"I'm only being realistic Viral, that's all. I won't sit here and lie to your face, I wouldn't do that to you," Aito answered back, smiling as he rose to his feet, "Everything I tell you, good or bad, is the honest truth. I figured you would rather know the current state of affairs rather than just be told white lies to make you feel better." Really, telling Viral what the real deal was helped him a little too, letting his son know what was to come. As they were in essence doctor and patient right know it was only fair that there be nothing withheld from one another, and Aito made damn certain to divulge anything and everything. As soon as he confirmed whether or not this hunch he was getting would work too he'd share that, but only until he had a certain answer. Rifling through the pages on his desk he looked for the information pertaining to Viral's accounts of what happened, having had something of a eureka moment just earlier about how they might fix it. "Where is it... Where is it..." Aito mumbled, frowning as he continued looking around, "Damn my disorganization..." Whatever their father was up to Vegeta would leave him be, knowing how he got when he was having a "moment". Besides, it was seeming like Viral wanted to get up and move around, and much as they may think it a bad idea to do so he would try to indulge the Beastman. Being as careful as possible he grabbed hold of Viral and eased him to his feet, cringing when he heard the Beastman gasp. Right... All of his muscles probably felt like they were on fire right now, they really needed to be careful. Glancing back at the IV awkwardly, Vegeta frowned and managed to drag it over with one foot, having to grip it in his free hand and push it along. "You did say you wanted to move, so we're moving. Tell me if it gets to be too much though and we'll sit back down." "Handicap means that you're working at a disadvantage. Something's making it harder for you than it should be, basically," Kabocha explained, frowning as he scratched at his neck, "The fact you seem confused even by our explanations is your handicap, which makes simple lessons even harder." Feeling a set of eyes boring through him he looked over and leveled with Takeshi, sniffing before looking away indifferently, "You know I'm right. We're being as simplistic as we can and it's not working too well, what more can we do?" He was dumbing down his own lessons about as much as he could, any more and it wouldn't even be clear what he was trying to teach. His instruction hadn't exactly been easy and his instructor didn't have much patience, so he was already having to stress the lesson quite a lot for Shu's sake. Watching as Shu flailed about slightly, Kabocha let out a snicker, covering his mouth with his hand before looking up at the young Prince amused, "No... But you've got more power than most anyone and can't use it. Honestly... To think I was worried about you before." Takeshi was trying really hard not to go off on Kabocha, knowing how much Shu disliked when he did that. Friend or not he was being kind of an ass, that wasn't something he took lightly when it came to Shu. It was no secret that Kabocha, Kai and Choi were all uneasy around Shu initially, but hearing the guy say it aloud brought a smirk to his face. "Hey, he's come a long way since we started, even if it doesn't seem like it. Before didn't even know what Ki was, so the fact he's flying is pretty impressive." For someone who was unaware of it, even basic flight was huge leaps and bounds. A little more nudging in the right direction and Shu ought to be zipping around in no time. Looking up at Shu with a grin he rose back up again, floating around him for a second before settling in front of him. "You were doing it right there buddy, just gotta be a bit more careful with it, you know? Try just going side to side, or front to back, get used to moving before you try doing circles." "W-Well... Not dripping... But like, once it's a little dark and all I figured it was good to eat," Haku admitted, shrugging his shoulders, "And okay, a strainer, uh..." He knew what those were, he really did, now he just had to find one. Scratching his head curiously he began looking around, finally managing to find what he was looking for just under the sink. Carefully using the handle of the pan he poured the rice into the strainer, managing to actually get it all in without spilling. Smiling proudly he looked around for where to place it, turning over to the doors when they swung open again. He knew Choi was here, but seeing Yumi come in as well was a little bit of a surprise. Smiling nervously when she spoke to them he nodded slightly, putting the strainer on the counter and rubbing at his neck, "Yeah, just learning how to cook a bit is all, it's kind of fun," Haku said, turning back to his steaks and peering at them curiously, "Uh... So do these have to cook more or are they done?" "Yeah, Aito being back should make things a lot better for him. He's obviously still having trouble, but I'm hoping that changes soon!" With Aito and Vegeta both working at it around the clock it was inevitable, and she figured it would be sooner rather than later as well. Smiling when she saw Haku and Kai busy working away she gave them a little wave, a bit surprised to find the former in here. If this meant another helping hand in the kitchen then she was more than okay with it, as right now cooking tended to fall to the twins, their father and herself. Wanting not to obstruct anyone's work, Yumi found a place for herself just off to the side, leaning up against the counter and folding her arms as she smiled at Choi, "Thanks again, really, I appreciate it a whole lot. When he asks who made his delicious meal too I'll be sure to let him know it was you!" You couldn't [i]not[/i] like Choi's cooking, he was really good at it and knew what he was doing. Not to say Kai wasn't either, but then he didn't tend to cook for her as a favor all that often. "So what're you making over ther Kai? Smells yummy!"
