"Of course it'll help! I just have to hit you til you can't block, that's all," Takeshi responded, grinning as he got ready to move again. The afterimage technique worked fairly well, except for with Viral, so why not try that here? At worst he'd get caught and at best he'd actually land a hit, and being just a sparring match there wasn't much reason to worry about the former. Starting it off with a regular flank attack he smirked confidently when Kiton took the bait, vanishing again and coming in at his side. When his punch actually connected he found himself feeling pretty smug, only to look up confused when the Frost Demon had scarcely moved from being struck. Eyes widening slightly he let out a yelp when his feet were swept out from under him, not having expected that at all. Reaching out with one hand he caught himself before falling, trying to make something of it by pivoting his body and bringing his legs together, kicking out and trying to hit Kiton anywhere in the torso and knock him back. Aito saw many a great things over Viral's recalling that memory, it was just a shame that his son didn't see it as well. The implications of what he had just done were astronomical, it verified that the memories of the past were very much still there, just likely either suppressed or overshadowed by all of the recent trauma. "Why does it matter? Simple! It's undeniable proof that the life you had before, the one that we've been telling you about, it exists!" Aito responded, grinning as he stood up, clasping his hands together, "Even if you can't recall the memory on command just yet it is still there, somewhere within your subconscious! So then, in theory, if we can get you into a relaxed state then we can bring them out. Don't you see? You were questioning before about what is real and what is false, but if you can recall something so vividly then it is very much real. If we can just manage to switch things, to suppress the bad and release the good, then your stress will be reduce immeasurably." This was splendid, better than splendid, it was absolutely amazing. They did have to be careful however, as Aito reflected, as making Viral contend with so many foreign sensations could drain him, both physically and mentally. Smiling at the Beastman he stepped closer to the bed, offering him a cool cloth that he had dipped in the pond earlier. "Listen... Your life with us is real, we've not lied to you about that. I'm confident that if we can bring those memories back to the surface then your outlook will change, and having some positive thoughts can help combat all the bad. But you need to trust me on this, because if you don't put your whole being into trying then it may not work." "If you want him to know then you need to tell him everything you can. I know I'm new here, but... These people seem to really want to help, and I bet if you asked him he could do it. And we're probably not the same, just look at us," Haku stated, laughing slightly as he rubbed at his neck, feeling awkward over puberty talk, "All I'm saying is that I know Saiyans go through it, and I'm guessing your people do too. Maybe yours works different than ours, it probably does, but that might be why you're feeling this way?" That thing that lived inside of T'charrl probably had a hand in it too, like a parasite leeching off of its host. The thought of such a thing being inside the alien made his skin crawl, and having been told it was basically a ghost didn't make things any easier. Speaking of things that weren't easy, how would they get a tree or even a flower to live inside of a spaceship? Haku had seen small plants in them before for decoration, but he didn't know how that worked or if they could do it with plants here. "Why your home planet? You like the plants here, why not take something from here then?" the Saiyan suggested hopefully, "I'm sure they'd be cool with you taking one tree, or a few flowers, they've got loads of them."
