Krom saw no reason to be indulging so much of this information to Aito when he would just abuse him some more for using his creation, but when it came to Yumi at least she was being civilised about it. It was the little things that made him want to talk, plus having her slap him across the face like that was pretty golden. Listening to Yumi who was being a lot more reasonable about it all compared to Aito, he sighed lightly before shaking his head. “You’d have to ask Yamate about that, I was only doing what I was told to do when getting him and his sons”, he shrugged, not having much more of an explanation other than that, “It took several months before Yamate was positive it would work. Shu was also having his ehh…’unique form’ tested, but Viral insisted on taking the blows for him. It was a case of not knowing until proper tests were conducted. You know the drill when it comes to scientific experimentation! I’m sure Aito would’ve tested on Viral too when it came to his use as a destructive force…seeing how he obviously built him to be a weapon…”

Viral really hated how he was being talked about so casually when it came to what happened and how everything happened, but it wasn’t as if it was his own fault for being the way he was. He had to compromise somehow and to have the Saiyans willing to be just a little bit gentler with him by saying he’d help might had been desperation speaking at that point. He felt he was unable to speak the truth from his side because of his shame for thinking he could spare himself some pain by helping the Saiyans. He was desperate back then and now that he looked back he could only scorn his cowardice and inability to handle any more experimentation. “…It’s my fault you were taken and experimented on, Yumi. Not his. Krom is as much of a dog as I was, he just didn’t need a collar to hold him back”. Maybe the reason he agreed to collect subjects and DNA was he was desperate for some company, but they couldn’t know that, that was even worse than having to compromise to limit the testing he was going through.

Shu didn’t mind if things were malfunctioning since he was pretty new to all of these things, so having Takeshi fix it all was just a little extra icing on the cake for him. He was excited by the new things Takeshi and the others probably didn’t care much about because they were always around these items. It was a whole new world for him so of course it was going to be exciting. Squeaking happily when it came back on he gasped at the mention of games, looking back at the television quickly. “Ooh! Games? Ball? Ooh! So much excitement to see! Ball isn’t for idiots!” he spoke quickly, giving Takeshi a nod when he asked him about his opinion on the television. He didn’t know why everyone was so nonchalant about it, he thought it was pretty great. “I like music! Fun for ears! Like this too! No sure what it is about, but I like it!”
