Oh boy, it was chilly with no pants on. Chilly in some spots that Takeshi REALLY wasn't too keen on telling Shu about. Sprinting through the halls most likely didn't help his case, a nice casual walk might have done better. But sheesh, he was feeling terribly self conscious right now. "How did you ever stand this...?" he asked, frowning as they slowed once at the top of the ramp. "Running around almost naked and all that. I'm guessing you haven't always worn clothes." That was... A sight. One he definitely didn't want to nor need to see. Just thinking about wearing nothing in the cool, damp rainforests, or next to nothing seemed quite off-putting. Never mind all the dirt, debris, bugs, all the stuff that you'd be walking and sitting and sleeping in. Thinking about how dirty that was made Takeshi's skin crawl and him shiver. Or maybe it was just the cool air on the ship, he wasn't sure. Crossing his arms over his chest the older boy looked around, as if expecting someone to spot them out here like this. Not seeing anybody he sighed with relief, glad that at least his dignity would be intact for the most part. There was still the slight matter of being found running after Viral in just his boxers. He'd have to remember to thank the guy for that later.

It was awfully nice that Viral was back to himself... For the most part. Now they didn't have to worry about locking him up which was definitely an improvement. The only matter they had to explain to everyone at this point was why there was a large cat on board now, and why they might be missing their last meal before Earth. Hopefully it didn't take that long, returning to Earth, for the Beastman to get back his original shape. In theory, as far as she knew anyways, he'd change back after a point in time. Like any of them transforming perhaps with the exception of T'charrl would only last a short while. If just given time then he would likely turn back to himself with little or no help on their end. On the bright side too he'd eaten quite a bit, his stomach should be awfully pleased now. Provided of course he could keep it all down. Smiling Yumi picked up the cleaver, figuring she'd help carry it seeing as the act may be a little difficult for Viral right now. Not having any idea what she'd done she jumped a bit when roared at, narrowing her gaze and sticking her tongue out. What, did he not want her to touch it or something? Well it wasn't as if he could hold it himself right now, so he'd have to put up with her. Hmph.

So there was going to be no helping the door, Vegeta had to fix that. Or perhaps not, after all it wasn't like the training hall really required privacy. If anything it did need to be cleaned however, otherwise it would end up stinking due to all the meat residue. Heh, he could make Takeshi do that, he was the closest thing they had to a resident clean-freak. Leaving the shattered panel he returned to the room, having missed the whole roar at Yumi and this a little confused when she stuck her tongue out at Viral. Shrugging it off he smiled at the Beastman, gesturing for him to follow. "No reason to stay down here any longer, we might as well get up to your room." he pointed out. Checking the PDA for the time he frowned, "And it looks like we should start cooking soon too. No doubt everyone upstairs is ready to eat, so I suppose I should call the twins and ask them to help. But first... Viral, want to come to med bay? I'll take a look and see if there's anything I can do for you. If we can shorten the time you're like this I have a feeling you won't mind."
Viral wasn't going berserk anymore, that was good. Yumi and Vegeta could handle things from here, there wasn't any need to be around any longer. Turning his head to look at Shu as he got up Takeshi smiled, shrugging his shoulders. "It doesn't have to be over," he replied, pushing himself up to his feet. "There's more ship to explore after all! I say we keep looking around some!" They had only covered about half of the ship, or a quarter really if you counted both floors. He hadn't been to the library himself and was a little curious to see what it was like, even if he didn't really read. Who knows what else was waiting for them too, there could be a room full of all sorts of neat stuff just waiting to be discovered. Starting to walk out of the room Takeshi paused when he felt a chill down below, his face heating up some as he remembered he was more or less half dressed. "How about we get a change of clothes first...?" he asked, turning around with a sheepish grin. Reaching out he abruptly grabbed Shu's arm and started pulling him along, desperate to get back and dressed before anyone could see him like this. "Bye guys, good luck!" he called back, nearly running to get back.

While unlikely they had to see whether or not Viral could communicate with them. After attempting to speak, or what appeared to be an attempt, all that came out were growls and snarls. So much for that then. Vegeta sighed softly, drooping his head for a second and rubbing at it exasperatedly. He was back in control, that was a success to some degree. There was still the small matter of him being a cat however, and that didn't look to be remedying itself anytime soon. It was hard to enjoy that little achievement when there was another problem staring right at him. "You're back to yourself at last... Well, sort of," he remarked, smiling slightly. "We'll explain what happened later, I promise. Don't worry, nothing bad happened, I assure you." Thankfully they had avoided anyone being hurt this time around, that would be less reason for Viral to feel bad. Now the only thing that might make him feel ill would be the half dozen or so servings of food that were no doubt sitting well in his belly at this point. Hopefully he could hold it, perhaps as long as he didn't know he had eaten it would be fine. Getting to his feet the Saiyan looked back at the door as the brothers ran off, rolling his eyes before turning back to the others. "I suppose we'll have to hope this transformation wears off until I can think of something else."

"What if he stays like this though? Until we get back to Earth?" Yumi didn't want to bear bad news, but the thought had occurred to her and she saw fit to share it. The look on Vegeta's face said it all, he'd considered that too already. Not the worst thing to happen really, Viral was plenty healthy in this form and even had an appetite. He was just a little... Bulkier now, and harrier. Suddenly letting him use her bed didn't seem like such a thrilling idea. It was hard enough to sleep after all without massive tufts of kitty fur littering her bedspread. Getting to her feet as well Yumi looked around the room, wincing inwardly at the mess that had been made. Aside from the bits of food and various juices there were scrapes and claw marks on the floor and walls. That wasn't even to mention of course the door that was now broken, courtesy of Takeshi. No doubt Vegeta was going to be all in a fit over it. And sure enough...

"That moron... He could have just asked for the combination, but no... He punched a hole clean through the panel!" Vegeta had promptly gone out to examine the door once the boys were gone, seeing no reason any longer to supervise Viral. Kneeling before the panel he used the PDA as a light source, peering inside to inspect the damage. Wires had been ripped out, the panel itself was shattered and the power had been cut off completely. It was a wonder Takeshi hadn't shocked himself by doing this, pretty lucky. "Lovely... It'll take me at least three... No... Four hours to fix all of this. I've got the tools and I know how to do it, but jeez..." he lamented, laying his head against the wall with a sigh. "I really wanted to read up on Saiyan technology... I've got all those books in my room, and now they're just going to collect dust." What very little he had learned from Sayomi hadn't been enough to sate his thirst for knowledge. Saiyan tech, or perhaps more fittingly the tech that they stole was very intriguing. There was a lot of the ship he still didn't understand and he had the material to learn, but that was going to have to wait for now.

Yumi chuckled lightly while watching Vegeta, not exactly sympathizing with his issues. She never did quite share his love of technology, it was always a quirk of his. Sure, the panel being busted was unfortunate but it wasn't the end of the world, and not near a big a deal as he was making it out to be. When they finally did get back she was taking him out somewhere, he needed to get away from machines for a day. Smiling she stood at Viral's side, giving him a curious look as she folded her hands behind her back. "Feeling better at all? If you are then we should get you back to your room so you can relax." Stepping away just to grab his cleaver she carefully rested it over her shoulder again, looking up at the blade in curiosity. "This thing is so heavy... How do you use it all the time?"
Sitting around in just briefs really was lousy. Not to mention the walk back to their room was going to be utterly humiliating unless a change of clothes were found. Takeshi figured Shu might be so generous as to share his shirt, since at least he had pants on. Smiling gratefully when his brother agreed he waited for a moment until the younger boy once more got the garment stuck on his head. "Here, hold still buddy." Grabbing just around the hem of the shirt he gave it one quick tug, wiggling it a bit to take it off of Shu. Once it was freed the Saiyan gave it a shaking just to be sure nothing was in it, still a little edgy about finding bugs. Satisfied that it was clean as could be Takeshi slipped the shirt on, sighing contently at being a little more comfortable now. Gratefully smiling at Shu he moved closer to his brother's side, making room as it looked like Viral was coming to again. Maybe now he was aware of what was going on, this whole business was getting pretty confusing at this point.

Vegeta watched Viral with a slight cringe as he became aware of what he had turned into. Ah, well he was conscious of the transformation now, this was a start at least. Now they weren't going to have to worry about him going feral or attacking any of them. Of course there was the slight problem that he was still a rather large feline, but one step at a time. Sympathetically reaching out to try and help steady the Beastman he smiled a little, relieved they were finally making progress. "Easy there, you're okay. Well... I mean aside from this," he explained, gesturing to the new form," You're fine. It'd be best for you to relax until we can figure out how to change you back." Oh now this was quite puzzling, and worrisome too. He had become aware of himself before and that had been enough to trigger a reversal in the transformation. Now however he was apparently completely aware and yet remained totally unchanged. Something else had to trigger the change back, the only question therein was what? Positive that they could be understood now Vegeta gave his friend a little room once he'd settled the Beastman down, rubbing at his chin thoughtfully. "Can you speak...? Or are your vocal chords not working?"
Man, Viral's nose must be awfully sensitive to be agitated by his scarf. Just out of curiosity Takeshi grabbed the cloth, bringing it up to his own nose and giving it a sniff, putting it back with a shrug. It didn't smell like much other than sweat to him, not the most pleasant of smells. Maybe the guy's own body odor had knocked him out or something? This whole business just had him awfully confused, the guy was going from angry to calm to angry again and then he passed out. Scratching at his head he watched as the Beastman finally began to twitch after a little while, gradually coming to. As Shu hid around him Takeshi jumped as well, only because his brother placed his cold hands on his bare back. Yelping faintly at the chill he got the older boy squirmed around in his spot, watching Viral all the while warily. Whatever had happened to him it had left the guy pretty groggy, he definitely wasn't going to be getting up and attacking them any time soon. Breathing a bit easier he sat down on his backside, crossing his legs and folding his arms over his chest, scrunching up slightly to stay warm. Meh, he really needed something to wear. Turning slightly to look at Shu he eyed his brother's shirt for a moment, smiling a little. "Hey buddy... Can I have your shirt? It might fit me and I'm kind of... Well, almost naked right now."

Yumi was doing her best to ignore the banter going on beside her, more concerned with Viral right now. He was really out of it, somewhat amusingly looking as though he'd just woken up from a hard night of drinking. Smiling sympathetically she moved closer, reaching out and rubbing his neck and back to help keep him calm. Poor guy, there was just no winning for him right now. He didn't appear to really know what the deal was with his scarf and cleaver either yet, a shame since they'd gone through the trouble of trying. Maybe a little encouragement on that end would help. "Don't you remember these? They're yours, you always have them with you." Yumi pointed out, reaching over and grabbing the scarf. "You always wear this wherever you go, and you've had it as long as I can remember. Doesn't this remind you of anything?" It had seemed painful before when they showed it to him, hopefully that had passed. If these didn't work then there was probably no other choice but to put him in a room until they got home. Looking at the scarf in her hands Yumi ran her fingers over the fabric, giving the garment a curious stare, "You know... I don't even know where this came from..."

"Mom made it for him." It had been a long, long time ago it seemed, but Vegeta avidly recalled it being from their mother. He was rather young when it had been given, but he could still remember the scene. Viral had actually smiled upon receiving it, and not that cynical smile they had gotten so used to. The Beastman had been genuinely happy upon getting the item, not caring at all how simplistic a gift it was in reality. Reaching over he accepted the garment from Yumi, looking at himself with a reminiscing smile. "She stitched it for you on Christmas, a long time ago. It was one of the few gifts you got, and probably the only one you still have. I know you barely remember her, but she treated you like a son, and so did dad. And I guess that means I ought to start treating you like a brother." Sighing softly the Saiyan looked at Viral, reaching out slowly and with gentle motions fastened the scarf around his neck. "So come on then, brother. If you're in there you've got to change back, you can't stay like this."
Yumi smiled sympathetically when Viral appeared to struggle. He looked to recognize his cleaver, but there were no vocalizations or gestures that made it obvious. Chances were he probably couldn't even speak in this state anyways, otherwise he would have by now. Even in the other form he had managed to do it, this one then seemed a bit more animal like. The weapon alone wasn't cutting it, so Shu was called over to present the scarf as well. Hopefully a garment that carried a scent with it would serve to do a little more for their friend. Or... it could render him unconscious. Yumi's eyes widened in surprise when, after showing a bit of distaste towards the scarf Viral abruptly collapsed. Why did that happen, it shouldn't have happened. These things were supposed to help him remember who he was and bring him back to himself, not knock him out. "Get off him you idiots, get off!" she said quickly, setting down the cleaver. Waving off Vegeta and Takeshi she scooched closer to Viral, biting her lip worriedly as she looked down at him. Reaching down slowly she rubbed his side and shoulder, hoping to gently rouse him awake. "Viral...? Hellooooo?"

A lot of good that had just done them. Takeshi had lost his clothes so Viral could what, go and fall asleep or something? Bah, really not a worthwhile endeavor. After getting up off of Viral the older boy moved to Shu's side, holding himself as he walked over and shivering slightly. Turned out that being inside of a room in a space ship with no heat was pretty cold when you were nearly naked, who knew? His pants were not all that far off from where they were, but with several tears in the material and not to mention all of the drool he could probably do without them. "So what... He's out cold now...?" he grumbled, frowning as he shifted about. Well at least that meant he wasn't going to go running around, that was nice. More likely than not however they were going to have to move him now, and goodness knows where to. In the state he was Takeshi wasn't exactly keen on transporting somebody around right now. Sitting down next to Shu he looked over, eying the shirt on his brother before shaking his head, rubbing at his arms. Nah, way too small for him, it would probably tear if he even attempted to put it on. Maybe the kid wouldn't mind making one last trip upstairs.
"No he's not trying to be a cat, he just... Oh I don't know!" They had left and he was in everything but a shirt, now he was all but stark naked save for some boxers. How in the world he had managed to shed the rest of his attire, or why, was beyond Yumi. She had a pretty good guess though, it had something to do with the trousers hanging out of Viral's mouth. Either he was so hungry he was willing to eat pants or he was a lot more playful now that he had a full stomach. The latter didn't seem terribly likely as he bound at them for the door, trying to make a break for it yet again. Between holding his cleaver and trying to keep Shu's supposed innocence intact she couldn't well do a thing about the charge, and thankfully she didn't have to. Takeshi was prompt to act, tackling Viral from behind and restraining his hind legs as Vegeta mirrored his movements from the front. In no short order they managed to have him restrained successfully, for now at least. Breathing a sigh of relief she figured she could relinquish her hold on Shu, especially since he had his own eyes closed at this point. Looking at the two Saiyans and Beastman Yumi smiled a bit amused, walking over with the cleaver in hand before kneeling before Viral, holding it flat across her hands for him to see. "Viral...? Do you recognize this...? It's yours."

Takeshi hadn't really put a ton of thought into stopping Viral, he just sort of went and did it. Boy was it strange having all of this fur brushing up against him, it tickled the crud out of his bare skin. Squirming a bit at first he relaxed for a moment when they settled, nodding gratefully to Vegeta for his help. All would be well and fine if they could just get Viral to look at his things now. That, and if this pesky tail would stop slapping him in the face. After a few hits he was rather tempted to bite it out of frustration, but thought better of it, lest he anger the Beastman. Instead the Saiyan craned his neck, trying to avoid getting smacked around while he laid there. Now and again the hind legs would kick, shaking Takeshi a little bit, but overall this was much easier than handling the guy before. Watching as Yumi brought the cleaver over for Viral to see he looked to Shu, rolling his eyes at his brother's eyes being closed. "Shu... You can open your eyes and look. It's not like you haven't seen me in my boxers before." They had only just showered together recently, sheesh. Not that Yumi was probably aware of that, otherwise she wouldn't have gone through the trouble.

"Just... Hold still Viral, we're not going to hurt you." Vegeta wasn't overly thrilled when Yumi came over first, concerned with how brandishing a weapon around someone who was essentially all animal now would be taken. At the moment Viral looked to be doing fine, though he hadn't even laid an eye on the cleaver yet. Adding to Takeshi's behest he looked over to Shu and have a nod of his head, "He should see that too. Let him get a good sniff of it as well, maybe there's some scents on there that will help him." Heck, at this point he was willing to try anything to get the Beastman back to normal. Shy of blasting him with radiation or something like that anyways. Fidgeting as the legs he was grabbing kicked him rather close to the groin Vegeta looked up at Viral, forcing a smile as he tightened his grip to keep the limbs still. "If you kick me there I swear with them as my witness I'll return the favor when you're better..."
"Somehow I don't think he'll react to these the same way he did food," Yumi remarked, smiling amused. Getting tackled right now by Viral would be rather inconveient, but it seemed like he was busy anyways. If Takeshi's shouting meant Viral was up to something then they probably weren't going to have to worry about him attacking them. Expecting the Beastman to be making a break for it when they arrived instead she was greeted by a sight she'd just as soon forget. Staring wide eyed as Takeshi darted about in his underwear Yumi hastily covered Shu's eyes, thinking perhaps foolishly he'd never seen his brother in just that before. "Takeshi is uh... Well almost kind of naked." And running around like a chicken with his head cut off she might add. When he missed a tackle and slammed to the floor she couldn't help herself, bursting out into laughter alongside Vegeta. Covering her mouth quickly with an open hand she shook her head, beaming at the Saiyan in amusement. "Nope, didn't know you were going to be streaking when we got back," she teased, grinning as Takeshi pouted. Forgetting for a moment Shu could now see just fine she looked over at Viral, wondering what it was he was up to. A bit surprised that he was coming towards them Yumi got fairly worried, not sure how well they'd be able to stop him. Smiling sheepishly she held out the cleaver, hoping Viral would take note and slow down. "Look what we've got! I have your cleaver, and Shu your scarf!"

The items might make a difference if Viral weren't making a break for it right now. Vegeta quickly moved to block off the Beastman for a second time, though he kept his hands off while instead just placing himself in his friend's way. "Viral, you're not leaving this room, stop!" If they could just get him to look at his things for a second it may trigger something in him and bring him out of this change of his. Takeshi was moving in to help as well, putting aside his temporary, rather strong embarrassment to try and restrain Viral. Rather than passively try to block their friend Takeshi went for a tackle again, attempting to grab a hold of Viral's rear legs. Sighing softly Vegeta jumped out as well, moving to grab a hold of whatever he could really, hoping the two of them could wrestle the Beastman to the ground and keep him there. "Don't let him out of the room!"
"Come on Viral, sit down and relax, they'll be back." Takeshi urged, hoping he could at least talk his friend down. Viral didn't look like he was going to strike out right now, but that could change in an instant. "You shouldn't be up after eating so much anyways, so why don't you- Eh?" While gesturing to a spot for the Beastman to lie down he noticed Viral had started to sniff at his hand. Freezing for a second he pulled his brow together, not entirely sure what was going on until his hands ha d started to be licked. Making a funny face Takeshi drew his hands back, not at all thrilled with having his hands being snacked on. At least he hadn't tried to bite them, that was nice. Sighing softly he wiped the drool off on his pants, figuring if the shirt was already trashed he might as well be rid of the pants as well. There should be a laundry room right by the showers if he remembered right, he'd definitely have to take these up there once he'd fetched a change from his bedroom. "My hands are not food. I'd appreciate it if you didn't do that," Takeshi mumbled, looking down at Viral uncertainly. "Now seriously, go... Lie down or something and wait for the others. Wait... Ah!"

Vegeta was quite busy with his PDA, trying to figure out if he could set aside another room for Viral to be placed in. There were in fact holding cells on their ship, but placing a friend in there seemed a bit too cruel, even if he was changed like Viral was. There were plenty of spare bedrooms, surely they weren't going to need all of them. Just one of the slightly larger ones would do the trick for now, and that way at least the Beastman would be a little more comfortable during his stay. Glancing up briefly as he heard Takeshi complain about being licked he rolled his eyes, refocusing on his device. If he didn't want to be licked he ought to have used gloves, the fool. There were gloves up in small boxes everywhere in the kitchen, it probably hadn't even crossed his or Shu's mind to grab them earlier. Ah well, not that it mattered much now. Whilst scrolling through the ship's layout for a moderately large room Vegeta was distracted again, this time by the sound of tearing fabric. Confused he glanced up for but a second, and when he saw what it was he immediately buried his face back into his PDA, refusing to look. Oh thank goodness he had the mind to put on underwear at least.

Shu was just too adorable sometimes. She didn't quite understand why he was cheering for finding the scarf but it was quite fun to watch. Oh how nice it must be, she mused, to be able to take pride in the little things. Now that they were all equipped for Viral the two of them left his room, making steady pace back to the training hall. "Between your brother and Vegeta he won't get out, those two can handle him." Yumi said, smiling as she adjusted the cleaver on her shoulder. Wow this thing was heavy, she didn't understand how or why Viral wanted to lug something so bulky around. Really it wasn't so heavy she couldn't handle it, but it was heavy enough that even with her strength she noticed it. Descending the ramp she was a little bit confused when she heard Takeshi shouting indistinctly, worrying at first that something was going on with Viral. Grabbing Shu's hand with her free one she gave him a small tug, rushing over to the door and getting ready to help. When she saw Vegeta standing right inside the door, red and hiding behind his PDA she knew at least it wasn't an attack, otherwise he'd be in there helping. Looking further into the room her own eyes widened in surprise and she immediately released Shu's hand only to put it across his eyes. "Don't look Shu."

"Come on Viral, give them back!" Takeshi whined, hurrying after the Beastman. Damn cat, he probably thought this was pretty funny. It was a riot, him running about in just boxers, chasing after a soiled, torn set of pants. Why was he even after them when he wasn't going to put them on? Jeez, he was fast like this too, it was proving to be awfully difficult to catch his friend. Finally cornering him against a wall Takeshi made a lunge to grab him, missing by a wide margin when the Beastman moved. Landing on his face with his rear comically stuck up in the air he sighed, putting his hands flush against the floor and pushing himself into a sitting position. Over by the door he noticed Yumi and Shu had arrived, the former because she was laughing quite loudly at this point. Vegeta had started laughing too behind a closed hand, trying to hide it despite the noise. Sticking his tongue out Takeshi got back to his feet, crossing his arms over his chest and watching Viral testily. "Har har... Very funny. I don't suppose you brought extra clothes did you?"
"Do you think he'd want his clothes smelling like that?" Yumi pointed out, smiling amused. Then again Takeshi had wiped his hands off on his shirt, and now that was possibly in Viral's belly along with the fish and steaks. Hopefully not, it would be one thing to explain how much he'd eaten and another to say he devoured a shirt. As Shu pointed out though they were rather unlikely to even say a word to him edgewise unless he remembered it all. It would likely to disgust him to no end knowing head eaten enough to feed probably two or three of them all on his own. On the bright side if he held all the food his energy should return, and being full may just help his mood improve a little bit. "You were smart to eat a little at a time, otherwise you'd get really sick. But clearly now your stomach is all better," she mused, reaching over and giving Shu's stomach a playful poke. He'd eaten an awful lot at supper, as they all had. Certainly no issues for him any longer in that regard. Grabbing up his cleaver from beside the desk Yumi carefully balanced it in both hands, always surprised by just how heavy the blade really was. To think that Viral swung it around effortlessly really was a testament to his strength, it was a pretty incredible feat.

Just the cleaver alone may not be enough to bring Viral out of his state, some more items could be needed. Prompting Shu to help her search they dug around a little more to find anything that would work. The little Saiyan quickly came across the blood red scarf, a garment that Viral never ever went without. Well, except for right now. "That's it, good job Shu!" Yumi said cheerfully, smiling at Shu. "I know he doesn't wear gloves, but never mind that. And I can't say either why he always has it, he just does. As long as I've known him he's kept it with him for whatever reason." If it wasn't a touchy subject then maybe she'd ask Viral once he was back to normal. That was provided he was even aware of the reason himself. There was an awful lot he didn't seem to recall, and seeing as he'd always had this scarf it could well be from before his freezing, so the knowledge of that would be lost to him. At any rate Yumi was satisfied they had what they needed, the two items being about as iconic as one could get when thinking of the Beastman. Carefully resting the cleaver on her shoulder she eased Shu out of the room, shutting the door behind them. "Right. Now let's just hope they've got everything under control."

Takeshi wasn't quite sure what it was Viral was trying to accomplish right now. He was slinking along the wall towards the door, perhaps trying to be stealthy about it. It would work all fine and well if the lights weren't on, they could see him as plain as day. At least he did, Vegeta looked to be buried in his PDA once more. Sighing softly he walked around his friend, keeping an eye on Viral and putting his hands on his hips once he stopped. "You're not leaving this room Viral, just sit down and wait for Yumi and Shu to get back." He was really hoping they weren't going to have to do anything, he wasn't exactly in the mood to wrestle with a pseud-wild animal. If Viral made a break for it though they had to restrain him. "Now come on, go sit down and wait," Takeshi continued, waving a hand to motion, "They're getting some of your things, they'll be right back."
"You couldn't smell all of that?" Yumi repeated, giving Shu a look of disbelief before sighing. "Lucky you, my stupid nose was picking up everything. I could do without this sense of smell sometimes." Turns out there were an awful lot of unpleasant odors that went unnoticed by her before that now were clear as day. Like body odor, for instance. One thing she really loathed about Gobo was the man sweated profusely, and absolutely reeked as a result. Every time they were in the same room she felt she might retch just at the stench. "I won't tell him, and I doubt your brother or Vegeta will too. He'd be so sick if we told him how much he ate, don't you think?" He had barely gone through a single filet of fish on his own at dinner, and that was before engorging himself on more at Mizuna's taunts. If he knew he'd eaten half a dozen whole fish and a few steaks in a single sitting he would turn a veritable shade of green... And they'd probably see all the food make a second appearance. Definitely not in their best interest to tell him about it.

Seeing as she spent more time in Viral's room than her own Yumi knew exactly where to go for his. It was a ways beyond the cafe and around the other side of the ship, but just barely. It was pretty much the same as any other room on board, though there were bits of medical supplies strewn throughout the room here and there, as well as clothes. A particular garment, one she had left there unknowingly, caught her eye like a sore thumb. Flushing a deep red she hastily stuck it under the pillow on the bed, remembering to get it later on. Laughing nervously she patted down the bed, making it look like she was making it before turning to grab the cleaver. It was rested alongside the desk in the room, laid up between it and the wall. Because of its sheer weight she lifted it with two hands, just to be safe that it didn't swing anywhere. Yumi debated on letting Shu carry it for a moment before thinking better, figuring the weapon was about half his size.
