Takeshi was fair eager to learn to use his sword, having been pretty much enamored with the idea of it from the start. He wasn't so clueless as to think he could just swing it around willy nilly though, he needed instruction. Seeing as Viral was the only weapons expert among them he was then the obvious choice to ask for help. Takeshi had figured he'd asked tactfully enough, trying to be polite as possible. Nevertheless it somehow managed to upset Viral, apparently angry over the sword being referred to as a thing. It was though, wasn't it? Just a piece of metal, not sentient and certainly nothing more than a tool. That's how he saw it anyways, the Beastman had a radically different view. Thinking of the sword as an extension of his body wasn't quite the most simplistic thing to wrap his mind around. If he hoped to get anywhere with lessons he would have to see things Viral's way, which meant respecting the sword. 

"Alright... Alright... Sorry. Maybe I'll respect it more when I learn how to use it though?" Takeshi suggested, smiling eagerly. "After all, all the sword does now is lie around. If I could actually make use of it then I'd think it's a lot more important, and I'd respect it!" Maybe not the best way to word that, it sounded like he was just trying to appease Viral for the sake of training. As of now the Saiyan couldn't view the sword as anything but a tool, least of all not an extension of his body. It was easy for Viral to call his own weapon that when he had always had the thing, it was like Takeshi's and Shu's tails. Albeit the former was sort of missing his for some time now, but the point was the same.

"We think its best to kill these creatures before they can cause any more harm, that's why we're going down there," Vegeta explained patiently, crossing his arms over his chest. "And I opted to bring you because I know you can fight them. Yes, I've got questions about that thing we've fought, but I'm not using you as a means to answer those. I'd say its a safe bet that if there are people on the world then they'll know about the creatures and what they are. All I'll need to do is ask someone down there then, you're not needed for that." He'd have thought Viral would be ecstatic to fight now that he was healed up. Plus, he'd managed to kill the monster, that ought to have helped out his mood a little bit. Apparently not.

Yumi took no pleasure in seeing Viral so upset, as she too had hoped his healing would cheer him up a little. Unaware she was inadvertently causing further grief she stepped forward and opted to give him a hug, the most simplistic form of comfort she could think of, not wanting to overdo it. Much to her dismay she was pushed back, even if gently, leaving her a little upset as she looked down at the Beastman. "We all are ready, more or less. Those of us who want it will still need to put armor on, but other than that we're good to go." They all had changes of clothes, and perhaps with the exception of Kai, Choi and Kabocha no one was keen to wear Saiyan gear, not wanting to convey the wrong message. Takeshi wore a red colored jumpsuit with a pair of boots and gloves, and a black vest he'd dug up goodness knows wear, that was the closest any of them were to the regular Saiyan attire. 

"It'll be just us going down," Takeshi added, gesturing to himself, Shu, Yumi and Vegeta. "We figure a small party is better, and this way there's plenty of people to keep the ship safe. We were hoping you'd be willing to come with the rest of us, if you're up for it. Got to get the old crew back together, you know? It'll be fun."
