Viral went ahead and performed the lunges, albeit with no small degree of reluctance. It was both clear that he was struggling with the exercise and he had little desire to do it, yet he powered through a fair number before finally coming to a stop. "Then we'll only do it this one time if it's so out of character, no sense in forcing exercises on you," Vegeta responded, watching as Viral struggled to rise again only to collapse under his own weight. Placing his hands on his hips he let out a sigh, walking over and looking down at the Beastman carefully. "Your muscles suffered from atrophy, and aside from the occasional fight, which isn't exactly an exercise, we haven't been focusing on keeping you fit. Naturally your muscles are a bit weaker than before, so it will take less to tire you out," he explained, smiling slightly after the fact, "That isn't a problem though, you'll begin to rebuild muscle mass quickly enough, especially if we give you vitamins and nutrients in the form of foods and supplements to help you along the way. You should consider yourself lucky you're even mobile, given how dire your condition was at a few points. It can only be up from here." "You made a mistake Shu, making mistakes doesn't make someone a bad person," Aito explained carefully, "You're fine, shall we say, 99% of the time. It's only when you change that something might happen, and no one faults you for changing against your will. And... Perhaps people did not forgive you right away, but they will. Sometimes forgiveness takes a little while, for wounds to heal or what have you." Well this boy certainly garnered plenty of sympathy, and it was no wonder why; Shu was in every since an innocent little boy, dealt a rather lousy hand and being forced to try and deal with it himself. Were the others neglecting him? Doubtful, but when you didn't know how to help even the most minute problems they could quickly become overwhelming. A good thing then perhaps people of expertise were now available to Shu, hopefully he could get the help he needed. They had been getting somewhere at least with this, but their conversation was going to be put momentarily on hold. Feeling two energies approaching the building quickly, Aito had stood up and waited for whoever it might be to enter, not having expected the door to be knocked down courtesy of Leto's head. Blinking once in surprise he smiled slightly amused, giving a casual wave and greeting to Kiton. "Well... Hello there Kiton!" Takeshi was quickly reaching the end of his patience, not able to grasp at exactly what Krom was saying. "So what, just run at you and don't do anything? Don't try to trick you?" he snapped back, throwing his hands up in the air before folding his arms furiously, "Great plan pops, I'm sure charging right at you in plain view is going to do me SO much better!" Scowling when Shu was brought up again, he was about to snap at Krom again until a thunderous bang took everyone's attention to one of the far doors. Furrowing his brow in confusion he watched as the door collapsed to the ground, Leto's hulking frame following soon after and Kiton ending up on his back. Whatever just happened left the alien looking awfully shocked and afraid, weird. Leave it to Krom to totally sully things too, what with his yelling and throwing around accusations. "Hey, come off it you ass! Kiton's one of us, that's all there is to it! None of your business who we make friends with," Takeshi retorted, glaring up at the Elite, "And Leto's one of us too! Besides, this is a REBEL building, and he's a REBEL. He has more right to be here than even you do!" "Eheh... He's not completely wrong there Krom," Aito laughed, smiling slightly as he itched at his cheek, "But still... Takeshi, we do owe him an apology. He's out here training you and we've been given an unexpected guest, so... Sorry about that Krom." Sheesh, that kid was such a pain and a hothead, he just wanted to pick a fight with everything didn't he? At least Shu was easier in that regard, the younger boy seemed to want to do anything but fight. Speaking of, Shu had gotten a fright over that entrance hadn't he? Glancing back he smiled reassuringly, reaching down and placing a hand on Shu's head before looking over at Kiton and Leto. The latter was probably out for the moment, so he'd just have to question the Frost Demon then. "Kiton? Er... Is there something we can help you with?"
