Why didn't the twins aspire to have more? Weren't they sick of being in everyone else's shadows? Didn't they want some kind of power? Kabocha couldn't understand them or their willingness to just be cooks for the rest of their lives. To busy to continue arguing as he was trying not to lose his lunch over his lunch Kabocha tentatively prodded the meet with his fork, grimacing as it sloshed about and the meat peeled apart. "Sensitive stomach nothing, this looks like food you'd feed prisoners. It's slop..." the noble grumbled, turning over the meat and furrowing his brow at the pink ring around the meat. Was that normal? Didn't pink mean it wasn't good to eat? "Sure, but if this kills me I'm haunting your asses for all eternity, that's on you." Well worst case scenario he'd probably be propped up on the toilet all day while this mess worked its way through his system. Sighing to himself Kabocha made a face and pulled a piece of the meat off of the plate, studying it before throwing it into his mouth. "Huh... That's not bad..." It was sweet and spicy and the meat was quite tender, the sauce was a bit heavy but at least it was tasty. Eyebrows rose in surprise as he looked at his plate, smiling despite himself and quickly peeling away another slice, throwing it back with a contented sigh. This would do just fine. ---------- "You don't want anything at all? I'm cooking and I figured you might be hungry after your mission," June asked as she watched Viral slowly sit himself down. Immediately something didn't seem right and she was determined to find out what had happened and why he was in pain. She knew they had gone off on a mission but she didn't know any of the details of it. "He's very busy, I think he's working with Shu right now. I'm sure he'll be by soon to eat though, if you want to wait here. Yumi, would you like a drink dear?" Smiling she went to the refrigerator and took out a jug of water, filling a glass before handing it over to Yumi. Now then what was wrong with Viral? Looking at him carefully for a moment June grabbed herself a chair and placed it in front of Viral's, frowning and reaching out as she grabbed one of his paws. "Honey, you're not hiding your pain from me, I can tell you're sore. Where does it hurt? Let me help." Wanting to make it absolutely clear she wasn't taking no for an answer June tightened her grip on Viral's paw slightly, both hands wrapped around it as she inched her chair closer and smiled at him. "And please don't give the the 'it doesn't matter' piece because it does matter Viral. Now tell me where it hurts and if there's anything I can do." ---------- "People are afraid of new things, once they get used to it you won't be scary anymore. And King Nema is going to help us, remember? If all goes well you won't be like that for much longer." They could only hope that the King had made progress with his research and his people had found something that would help them. To keep his mind off of the problem at hand Yusef suggested they make their own museum back home and share things from other worlds with everyone. It would be something entirely unique to their planet and would bring in people from the kingdoms over, and to his delight T'charrl seemed to be on board with the idea. "That would be splendid! Keep some for yourself too of course, I'm sure some were gifts, but if you don't mind sharing them then I know everyone would love it." Yusef himself was extremely intrigued and wanted to know what lay beyond their own world, he was several seasons older than his son and yet his son had vastly more knowledge on that than he ever likely would. "We could probably g-g-get an awful lot on Uuonoe t-too, T'charrl," Haku suggested eagerly, "They have l-lots of different p-people there, so there's got to be a lot of d-different things for us to b-bring back!" There were Saiyans, the Uuonians themselves and then countless other races, every one of which had their own culture and goods they brought with them. Heck, Uuonoe itself was kind of like a museum if you thought about it, all those different people coming together and sharing what they had with each other. "We would h-have to probably buy m-most of it, but the rebels could do th-that for us! And that g-gives us another reason to c-come back here again later. I want to see more of K-Kaesstra." Yusef had mentioned those to the north and naturally Haku's curiosity had been piqued.
