"Right, right, I'll be more forthcoming next time I drop by for a visit, sorry," Aito responded again, chuckling as he waved his hand, "No more funny business." He'd probably not have seen Viral act the way he did though had he made his presence known, and the entire reason for coming was to just say hello and see how they got on organically. Already his presence here was disrupting their time together, and the Beastman was not at all thrilled with him butting in on the sparring. Still though, he'd agreed to take on a new partner, and the doctor had every intention of committing himself to this for the time being. "I suppose it would be asking a bit much to be forgiven so soon," Aito nodded in understanding, watching as Viral promptly went in for an attack thereafter. Fast, his speed was coming back to him at last. Bracing for the incoming strike he took a punch right to the head, being spun partially and having to plant his foot firmly to stop himself, his head jerking to the side from the hit. "Ow... You really do it like a runaway train," the doctor chuckled, nursing his jaw as he turned back to Viral. So he had speed and strength, but how about his endurance? Only one way to test that he supposed. Taking one small step forward he suddenly seemed to come to stand right beside Viral, swinging his arm out to try and knock away the Beastman in the process. "I won't go easy on you now that I know you're healthy. Let's see what you can do."

Had Shu not been told what actually happened yet? Yumi was surprised at how taken aback he appeared, as though he'd been left to believe he'd really attacked T'charrl outright. Shooting Takeshi an accusing glare she reigned in her annoyance for now, making a mental note to dopeslap the older boy later for being an idiot. "That's right, Krom did it, not you. You didn't do anything wrong Shu," she said again, smiling as she helped him up to his feet. That seemed to cheer him up somewhat, maybe now they could focus more on having fun rather than fretting over non-problems. Everyone was out of the hospital and healthy, even Viral was recovering now, there was plenty of reason to celebrate. "Oh, well I ate already, but I'm sure T'charrl would love some food. And I'll try swinging with you," Yumi said happily, reveling in the fact Shu was pepping up again, "I'm sure if you're extra gentle then you can give him a hug, I bet he'd love one right about now," she added, glancing back at her friend knowingly and giving him a wink.

It really was nice that T'charrl was feeling better, things had gotten scary there for a little while. Takeshi had been worried sick over how their friend was and whether he'd recover or not, seeing him here now was a massive relief for him. Smiling slightly as the three discussed plans he nodded at the mention of food, gesturing over his shoulder to the food laid out behind them. "Help yourself buddy, all yours. I was just finishing up anyways," he added, stepping aside to give T'charrl free access to it all. Earlier he'd been a bit reluctant to pack a mostly fruit based lunch for him and Shu, but now it was proving to be a really good idea in hindsight. "Hey Yumi... Uh, you seen Viral lately? How's the guy doing?" Takeshi asked casually, folding his arms as he looked up at the trees, "I was just wondering when I can start my sword lessons, you know? I asked him a while ago and its been weeks since then... Or days, jeez, I don't even know at this point."

Yumi looked at Takeshi incredulously before smiling, picking up on something he was trying to hide by acting dismissive. "Aw... You're worried about him aren't you? That's adorable!" she teased, watching as he huffed and grew red in the face from her quips, "Last I saw him he looked better, but he's still got a little healing to do. You could always ask him for your lesson, I bet he'd be happy to give it to you. Even if he won't say it, knowing him." It might do Viral some good, give him something to focus on other than being sick. "But for now just have some fun with us, you can train with your toy later!" Smiling as she slapped Takeshi on the back she went to join T'charrl and Shu as they ate, sitting beside the latter and tilting her head thoughtfully. "Hey Shu...? That reminds me of something... Didn't Takeshi get you a staff? Back on Kaesstra, you never learned to use it did you?"
