Viral was a little annoyed that it was something he was supposed to be observing mostly, but in the end he was actually having to teach her from scratch what to do and what not to do. She shouldn’t need to use a bird’s-eye view when she wasn’t even a bird. At most she could climb to the top of a tree like him to see where everything was if she couldn’t smell the water. She needed to learn how to be independent if she ever found herself in a situation where she couldn’t use Ki or fly. If she was being pursued through the use of Ki then this kind of exercise should’ve been essential to her combat training as well. Climbing up the tree took him off the field and in ambush range if he needed to jump in and help her. Looking down at her he narrowed his gaze before looking away again, keeping his claws in the bark to remain balanced. “That’s why I’m up here: watching you do what I’ve taught you now”, he spoke calmly as if trying to make her annoyed, “If you think you know enough then I won’t interfere. If you think you’re capable, then show me”.

Kai gave Kabocha a shrug, hardly seeing how it was a big deal. “Hey man, never been to a place where you never needed to fight? Think of it like that and then it’s not a pain anymore”, he sighed, finding it a little silly that Kabocha was getting all annoyed at something like that, “The Kaesstrians aren’t even interested anymore if you bothered to care”. The aliens were no sweat despite what they did to the Princes before, especially when they were in a city. The Queen was probably somewhere in the city after what happened or at least someone she’s associated with so they were safe, even Choi knew that. Choi was pretty chilled out himself, but of course his interest was in looking at the Kaesstrians who were nearby. It was rude to stare but his interest was definitely in the younger aliens that accompanied the adults. Looking to Kabocha he looked down as he was prodded, rolling his eyes. “Yeah because this is how you act normally, isn’t it?” he sighed, waving his hand, “And you’re absolutely sure you won’t act like this to the Kaesstrian who might deny you your money?”

“Hey look! They have squiggly grub babies…” Choi spoke up suddenly, ending in a whisper as he stared at a family of Kaesstrians. Staring at the little grub-like children that wandered along with their parents he was soon punched in the arm by Kai, his eyes immediately averting themselves and going to his arm. “Oww geez…hey, I wasn’t pointing or anything, you know. Imagine when T’charrl looked like that…”

T’charrl had no idea what he could change to help him change, his method was surely supposed to be pretty solid if he understood his power right. Maybe he didn’t have as much of an understanding as he thought, but that wasn’t going to help him either since it means he didn’t know what he was missing at all if that was the case. “I don’t know what works for me. I’m stuck…” he spoke before he sighed, lowering his head a little, “If I was back home my grandmother could tell me…uhh, she’s not someone you can just pick up, by the way, so don’t suggest that”. He didn’t know what Haku thought of him having the ability to talk to the dead, especially when Haku didn’t know he could do that. He was completely lost to what he was actually supposed to do, he didn’t even know what happened to make him change back the first time round. “I…don’t remember it being mentioned that the King wanted his sons dead. I don’t remember that…” he spoke lowly, trying to remember what he had been told to him. He didn’t know much about the King but he knew he wanted his sons alive so that sounded a little strange for the King to ask someone like Haku to do. Looking to Haku he stared at him a moment before tilting his head to the side, eventually giving a nod. “I suppose I won’t tell, but won’t things get better if you just told them that? I mean, I try to tell them everything that’s bothering me…well, most things. I don’t know what’s bothering me just now, except this…but I don’t think they can help me with it”.
Viral didn’t want to guide her all the way so if she was going to take the lead then now was a good time. He had taken her along the way enough and now was time for her to pick up the pace. Staring at her he could only frown as she instead decided to use her memory from when they were in the sky to find her way. He didn’t want her to have to learn how to find water that way, especially when normally you wouldn’t be able to get into the sky to see where you are. Letting out a groan he rubbed his forehead, ending with a sigh. “You wouldn’t know that unless you were in the sky…” he groaned, eventually looking away, “Howabout you don’t do that again and do what I tell you to next time?” She was looking for convenience over anything at this point, her hope for a compass in her head relied on the memories of what she had seen from above. Normal creatures couldn’t fly in the air and see what was above them before they went hunting, yet she seemed quite happy to use the ship and where she’d seen it to find it. “Hmph! If you keep using modern technology then you won’t remember anything. You’ll just want to fly up and find where you are”, he grumbled, feeling slightly moody but wasn’t going to have a fit over it. If she couldn’t smell the water then whatever, she didn’t have that good of a nose after all. Looking to her he soon to run for a tree, jumping up it steadily. He was fairly silent with each jump and able to keep his balance even without using his tail. He didn’t see how he was helping her down on the ground if he was telling her everything and leading her everywhere; he wanted to see her go at it by herself. “Find the lake without me. If you spot anything, ready your spear”.

Kai shrugged a little. “We never found out, or asked. It could be a thing all these aliens have and we never know”, he spoke quietly, looking to them again, “Howabout…don’t be a coward and think that citizens would attack you because you look dodgy”. He didn’t think they could do much, especially when this was essentially a residential district. If there was going to be anybody who was going to try and attack them it would be someone with fists only rather than weapons, especially when there was probably laws against weapons in this place. They were probably being watched by the local authority somewhere, whatever they might be dressed as. Looking behind himself as they made their way he saw the Kaesstrians eventually land once they saw the Saiyans were not aggressive. It seemed they were more surprised than anything when they landed in so maybe they were in the clear, probably. “Ask a shopkeeper. Maybe you’ll get lucky and be able to exchange your money straight out if you show it to them”, he spoke, looking around at the buildings, “Maybe we should ask someone who owns a food store first. Just remember: don’t be yourself…but if you can’t trust your personality to not take over then I’ll do it”.

T’charrl certainly didn’t know why it was Haku who was trying to help him out of his little breakdown, especially when it was usually Takeshi or Shu who would try talking to him. Haku didn’t have anything to gain from this, especially when he was the one who started it. It certainly made him worried that he was going to end up being shouted at for being a coward, even if Haku had tried to make him sound like a victim himself at first. Frowning, he let out a sigh before his eyes went to Haku again, staring at him. “I…never really thought about that stuff, no”, he spoke, feeling confused at the same time, “But I don’t know what the wrong things are either. What is wrong in what I’m thinking about? I don’t know…” He was certainly confused to say the least, but maybe there was something to this. He needed to think differently about this, but what he might be missing was definitely a curiosity to him. “My kind are fast and masters of stealth. They have gotten through them before”, he spoke calmly, giving his head a shake, “There’s so much I need to get through this for, especially the safety of my friends”. Certainly feeling confused over the reason why Haku wanted to help him he didn’t really get a clear answer in the end, only that Haku was pretty ready to express frustration over him asking. “Uhh, no I…didn’t mean it like that…I mean, I’m just curious. You always seem to want to talk to me even though you tried to kill me first. You’re trying to help me now and I just…feel confused, that’s all. You keep helping me out, even though I’m an alien to you”.
Viral figured Yumi needed to know a hell of a lot more about the wilds and how other hunters functioned in it, but of course he was not willing to give her all the answers. He was definitely not sure how much she remembered and he needed to try and investigate it a little further. She didn’t appear to remember much by the sounds of it, but it was a long time ago. If only she had been practising rather than sitting around and doing nothing then he wouldn’t have this sort of problem. If she wasn’t interested back then, it meant she was probably not really interested at all but only wanting to do it because he was ill and possibly dying. He felt that was the reason anybody wanted to do anything with him and Yumi was especially bad for wanting to do things with him because he was like this. “Find the water first. If we don’t have a place we can find our way back to other than the ship then what’s the point on hunting?” he questioned her, feeling confused over her desire to look for the fruit trees, especially when they were looking for predators, “If Vegeta wants me back then I’ll have to go back. You realise that. I’m not supposed to stay away for too long, especially when my medicine is that way. The water is nearby, you should know what you’re looking for by now…”

There was definitely tension upon seeing the Kaesstrians floating up there, their eyes staring down at the trio with great interest. It was hard to tell how they were feeling when they were all the way up there, whether they were actually angry to see them or simply curious. Choi was a little on edge, the sight of the aliens all staring down at them was definitely a little worrying. Kai wasn’t too worried himself, seeing the aliens as hardly a threat at all. It was either going to be a case that they would be jumped, questioned as to why they were here or simply watched this entire time. The other two were definitely being a little paranoid over the constant watching, especially when they were supposed to be warriors. “C’mon you two. Chill out before they sense your fear”, he sighed, folding his arms as they walked, “Pretty sure if T’charrl is affected by energy then these guys might be too. Maybe they’ll come down and start calling you two sissies for being such babies…”

T’charrl was fairly ready to go back to the ship and hide away once again. He had come out too early and was just not ready at all for any of this. Just because they had landed on the planet didn’t mean he was ready the moment he got outside, definitely stupid to assume that. He probably should have held off, he hadn’t fully found his form after all and they weren’t that far away from his home so somebody might spot him. Feeling like a bit of a nervous wreck he soon sighed, frowning as Haku decided to extend his story. It was contradicting what he had thought of his life before when he decided to ramble on about it, instead trying to make himself sound confident that he was trying to make an effort in the end. Watching him sit down he frowned and looked away. “You…kept trying? Maybe…maybe you were just looking for the wrong…’things’ to make you stronger…” Feeling in a little bit of a slump he frowned at his own lack of self-belief if even this guy could find it after being beaten down constantly, even if he didn’t mention that when he talked about it in the first place. Maybe all he needed to do was ‘lighten up’ as Haku said, moving his arms to the side, “Maybe…maybe. I can try…” he muttered, pushing up off the ground and into a seated position, “I-I could try and focus my energy to the planet, but I’m worried incase someone sees me. They would’ve seen the ship landing so they know we’re here but I’m just…I-I’m just scared, is all. I’ve already disappointed so many and to not have any clear way to fulfil my mother’s wishes is going to leave me exiled until I do! It’s very hard to have fun when your own kind could be anywhere around here. Why do you want to help me, anyways…?”
Viral was not sure how long ago the Kaesstrian was around in these areas but it was certain that they weren’t around anymore. There was always going to be the danger of accidentally ambushing one of them and nearly killing them if Yumi reacted quick enough, but he did trust Yumi to have some restraint when it came to hunting. If she just fired straight in and threw her spear at anything that moved then there was going to be trouble directed right towards her with him having to take the blame for it. Anything bad that happened to her he was responsible for, even if he was technically sick. Glancing over to her he stood up, backing away from the track before looking deeper into the forest. There was definitely animals out there but they were probably vacant from this area if there was active hunting around, but maybe if they were lucky the body of water had some daring creatures near it. “If we see any Kaesstrian, get out of sight. If they’re on the hunt too and they see us they may mistake us for monsters”, he spoke up, looking back to her as she examined the footprint, “Not everyone will remember us from when we were here last time, especially with how I look. The most we’ll do is create stories for ourselves and make them fear these forests”. The worst they could do was startle the hunter and end up getting an arrow through them. Heading back on their trail he analysed the surrounding area, making sure there was no camouflaged creatures that might try to attack them. “If you fail, it shouldn’t matter much. You’re not a natural hunter, after all. Learning and being able to do something naturally are not the same things and the most you can do now is figure out what might be found here. Something edible if a Kaesstrian would want to hunt here, seeing how they eat mostly fruit and yet these trees aren’t fruit trees…”

Choi folded his arms, staring at Kabocha with a whole lot of doubt in his eyes. He didn’t think a Kaesstrian would try to attack them while there was three of them, especially this quickly after their landing. “Just because we got to beat up random people under the King doesn’t mean we’ll get a meal by doing that here”. Looking to Kai when he decided to speak up his eyes went to the sky, staring up at it as he saw the locals. They were more of a mix of colours this time with some of them being the brown and black colours like T’charrl was. Some of them were looking at them, making him feel a little uneasy seeing how they were all the way up there like little spies. “Huh…uhhhm yeah, food”, he mumbled, finally deciding to walk along the street. Even if they were going to get dove upon by one of those guys they were still going to be ready to try and reason with them and show they didn’t mean any harm. “Man, it feels weird being a foreigner…”

Shu wasn’t really understanding what was going on over there but Haku seemed to be wanting to help T’charrl up but T’charrl was refusing or rather not seeing. It was a little strange that he had gotten into that position or thought it was a good idea to try and hide like that, appearing almost like a part of the forest with how he was on the ground. It reminded him of the first time he bumped into him thinking he was a log of some kind, but of course he was going to end up looking a lot more like a strange shrub of some kind with his sort of size. Squeaking a little he swung closer towards him, looking to Takeshi as he kept a bit back as well. He couldn’t really hear what was being said but he didn’t want to eavesdrop either, thinking T’charrl might get upset if they were listening into their little chat. He didn’t look too happy, maybe because he wasn’t being included in his playtime. He could involve him if he wanted to be involved.

T’charrl didn’t know what he was doing to do. If he couldn’t do anything to change back to normal then he was never going to see his family again. They couldn’t see him like this, nobody could unless he wanted to be exiled from his entire planet completely. He couldn’t place that burden on his friends and having to take him around with them forever. If what his friends said was true then he was a little different in his normal form too, but by how much he didn’t know. If they couldn’t accept him in that form either then he was properly doomed to disappoint his mother and father. As Haku started to speak he only gave a little look up at him, frowning a little before hiding his eyes again. He didn’t really understand what he was saying or why he was telling him this, he didn’t know what Saiyan culture was like. “So…you wouldn’t train with them…? To fight with each other to get stronger…I-I don’t know if you didn’t think of it that way or…” He didn’t know what to think, all he knew was he didn’t really fight back all that much if that was the case. People were often too afraid to fight him when he was growing up because of his mother and father, especially his mother. Frowning he finally looked up passed his claws, frowning as he stared at Haku. “I…tried to eat my mother…and nearly destroyed the city if I was unable to contain my power. My parents and the family friend are the only ones who know what I’ve become and even they mourn my misfortune. I left the planet because I was a danger and had no control! I still don’t have enough, so why am I here…?”
Viral grunted, not seeing how that was going to make things better saying that. “You all use Ki all the time. If you were ever in a situation where you couldn’t use Ki then keeping that ability should’ve been a top priority”, he spoke quickly, giving his head a quick shake before he sighed, rubbing his forehead, “So stop huffing and complaining already…you’re giving me a headache”. The smell of water wasn’t something that was hard to distinguish, especially when fresh water in a forest always had a particular smell to it. It always picked up the smell of its surroundings and enhanced them with falling moisture. He hoped Yumi would be able to pick that up at least and maybe even leading her towards the direction of the water might make things a little easier for her, even if she wasn’t aware that he was essentially leading her in the direction of it. Looking around for any tracks along the way he soon stopped and looked to the ground, frowning a little. “Hmm…do you remember how to spot tracks?” he asked up, looking back to her, “There has been a Kaesstrian around here before by the looks of it, but they’re old tracks. It’s a common mistake to chase after the scent of a local instead of a creature so get yourself acquainted with these tracks too. No point on chasing after bugs, after all…”

This place seemed like a nice neighbourhood if you liked things nice and quiet by the looks of it, Choi’s eyes surveying the area for any of the aliens. It was a little strange for a place to be so quiet but maybe this was just how things worked for them, especially when they were probably all busy doing bug-things or whatever. Looking to Kabocha he soon sighed and shrugged, smirking a little. “Ahhh, they got ambushed, remember? We’re not going to get ambushed! Besides, it’s a big street and we’re not near any trees so I doubt we’d get jumped on”, he spoke, looking around the street, “But if we take care of some bad guys then we’ll all be considered heroes and thanked and given the food, don’t you think?”

Kai let out a groan, “Are you two forgetting these aliens fly?” he asked them, pointing to the sky. There was a few Kaesstrians fluttering around up above, everything remaining fairly quiet as a lot of them merely hovered lightly around on a gentle breeze, “Stop being paranoid already, both of you. Things are going to be fine. Most of the aliens here are merely citizens, anyway. You two seem to forget we’re Saiyan warriors”.

Takeshi was going to have to up his game if he was going to catch Shu now, he thought. He was barely able to keep a hold of the branches and yet wouldn’t take off his shoes to give him even more balance and the ability to grab with his toes. Shu definitely thought Takeshi as stubborn sometimes but this was hindering his ability to catch him. It was quite funny really, having him miss so many times instead of managing to catch up with him made it all the more difficult for Takeshi to hold on and keep up. Bouncing around and swinging between the branches sure was fun, especially when he was being chased around by his older brother. Looking back at him every so often he very quickly missed being grabbed by Takeshi once more, watching him almost take a tumble but managing to grab onto a branch just before anything bad happened. Squeaking away in excitement he bounced on the branch, causing the tree to shake a little. “You need practice! Maybe we can get trees in the ship!” Feeling pretty happy he got confused when Takeshi decided to take his attention to the others who appeared to be pretty behind, looking back to his brother before making a bounce up to get higher, “What? Ooh! Friend T’charrl all somewhere!” he spoke, finding it a little difficult to see where his friend was exactly. His friend looked like he was playing hide and seek, holding his claws to his face maybe since he couldn’t see his bright eyes. Getting a little curious he was soon moving towards the pair, stalking them through the trees to get up closer.

T’charrl let out a groan, keeping his head covered. “Of course they would…I’m an only child! I have a whole world to be responsible for just because I was hatched into a certain family tree…” he spoke up but soon let out a groan, shaking his head slowly, “The only friends I’ve ever had are those I’ve been travelling with! I’ve never had any friends otherwise…they’re not out here for no reason either…I didn’t even know we were coming here until a little while ago!” He knew if he was spotted by one of his kind they would try to kill him regardless of who he said he was or even the fact he could talk. They would see him as a monster and try to end his life and that was it, nothing else. Even if they knew who he was they would probably try to kill him anyway and that would be the end of it, there would be no way he would try to stop them when he couldn’t bring himself to fight back. “It’s more than hate…it’s death for me! They may had hated you, but they never tried to kill you…did they? If they see me like this, I’m dead and that’s it. That’s it for me! If they were all Kaesstrians they would never had wanted anything to do with me, that’s just the reality for someone with my abilities…”
“I was trapped in the Capsule Corp for years and I’ve not forgotten anything! You’re just making excuses to your poor memory now”, Viral spoke back quickly, shaking his head, “Were you eating leaves the entire time I was gone? Hmph, maybe I should stick you in the wilds sometime by yourself…” She really needed to learn the basics of survival and not rely on the conveniences of life. There was always going to be a problem with succumbing to the easy way of life and Yumi was definitely part of that whole circle. He would definitely need to think about methods to make her just a little bit hardier than other Humans, especially when she was still considered one even with her additional animal parts; of course, that was as long as he managed to live that long. He still had great doubts that he would get through this, but of course he hadn’t started his treatment yet and time was constantly marching on. Feeling a little side-tracked he looked elsewhere, eventually looking back when Yumi stopped talking. “…Sure. If they don’t eat fruit then they’ll want to find water”, he spoke, looking around before walking off in a direction, “Try and remember the smell of water. This atmosphere is full of it and yet there’s no visible streams. It’s somewhere, just not visible”.

Choi was having fun but at least it managed to pass the time to getting to the city and finally managing to find a place to land. He didn’t see a problem with flying right in at a good pace, but Kabocha didn’t want to go on that kind of path. Certainly not caring as much Choi reluctantly followed along, looking to the ground briefly before letting out a sigh as he looked to his brother. He wasn’t too pleased with how quiet this place was, not really seeing any of the aliens in sight. “Loyalists? Kill us? Please! We’d never end up dead to a bunch of bugs”, he sniggered, “Besides, wouldn’t that come under us fighting off the bad guys, anyway? We could fight some bad guys, then we can eat if that happens. Maybe they’ll give us food for free?”

Shu was easily keeping up in the trees and throwing himself around without sliding off. He was feeling fairly happy right now and being chased just triggered all sorts of instincts in him that meant he was going into survival mode to prevent Takeshi catching him, even if he wasn’t going to hurt him. It was a lot of fun and Takeshi seemed to be having fun too, but it was a little hard to tell whether he was managing to keep up with him or was just getting lucky. He knew what to do and how to move his way around the trees but Takeshi was new to this apart from a little swing around earlier before when they were on the planet last time. Giggling away as he bounced from tree to tree he turned to Takeshi who was still struggling only to bounce immediately out of his way. “Can’t catch me!” he giggled, looking down at him, “It easier without, though! Much easy! You grossed out by anything!” Finding amusement in Takeshi’s determination he bounced down towards him, watching him carefully before suddenly bolting away when Takeshi made chase, squealing away as he swung around.

T’charrl was feeling pretty dizzy after that, his head hurting for a few moments. He was disorientated at first but was soon rubbing his head as he tried to find his bearings again. He had lost control for a moment there and apparently collided, but he was certainly not caring about that just now. Letting out a pained groan he soon sighed, looking up at the blurry figure which turned out to be Haku. Frowning he turned slightly away from him, holding his head still. “Ughh…they can fly and see where they are. I can’t take them to my home…” he mumbled, looking like he was using his camouflage to hide away instead, “I can’t go there…I can’t! You’re wrong about me! Just because I’m a Prince doesn’t mean they like me…they’ve never liked me! I can’t go back there, I can’t…”
THIS WEBSITE IS SO BAD. It keeps breaking whenever I try to view a post here...

But aye, we're ready. Not sure if the website's ready but god damn I wish it would calm the hell down.

Do you still have a copy of what you wrote or will I just send you it?
“You’re too paranoid...hmph, shows how long you’ve been away from the wilds for…” She was definitely showing off how little she knew about the wilds now, even growing worried over something that would never happen. Viral didn’t have much of a care for any of that sort of thing, especially when they had been on Kaesstra before for long enough and it didn’t matter at all then. If she thought he would get poisoned then she wouldn’t had let him go out into the wilds, even if he ended up getting stabbed through the gut. If she could kill something out here while she was feeling this way about everything then that would certainly be an achievement, but knowing her she’d probably want its blood tested for poison or something before they eat it. For him he didn’t need a weapon for doing any of this, so long as Yumi knew how to use her own weapon first. He had an assortment of ways to kill a creature and he didn’t care how he did it, but he wanted to see if Yumi could do it without resorting to Ki. “Do you remember how to track creatures? You’ll be able to sniff them out if you remember what you’re looking for. You also have to remember the creatures aren’t the same as Earth’s”, he instructed as he looked around, looking through the trees, “Unless you want to try and find that body of water first…”

Getting on Kabocha’s nerves was so easy, his inability to remain calm during his teasing just made it all the more fun. Choi wasn’t like Kai, he knew he didn’t like getting into fights like this because he often grew frustrated himself even if this was all just for amusement purposes. Giving Kabocha a grin he soon sighed, shaking his head a little. “If you say so! I hope everything stays nice and peachy with you too when the Kaesstrians notice us. Maybe they’ll blame the General because they all knew how bad he was…” Keeping with his brother he stared down at the city, feeling fairly pleased that they were here. To try and mingle like normal aliens was exciting to him, knowing they wouldn’t be seen as enemies immediately unless they tried something bad. Looking to Kabocha he sighed and rolled his eyes, the guy obviously not understanding what he meant. “Because flying in isn’t a big deal if they do it! We would just need to not look like enemies and fly slowly! Wave at them maybe, things like that. Act friendly!” He didn’t think they would get all angry at them if they flew around as well but casually did it as to not look like a threat, but Kabocha thought otherwise. “Would think they’d remember us considering we’re the only Saiyans who would ever come to their planet with no intention to fight. They’ve not exactly had a Saiyan invasion since then by looking at this place, right?”

Shu did wonder where they would have the trees if they were allowed to do such a thing, but then again so much of the ship was left unexplored too. There was so many places he hadn’t been in that place that could possibly hold a small forest for him, but that was as long as it was possible to do such a thing. Vegeta might like to do such a thing if he was able to, so long as he had time for it at least. For now, Shu was more concerned with jumping through the trees and playing around with his brother for now, bouncing around and speeding away elsewhere. “Nu uh! Can’t catch me! Can’t catch me!” he giggled, soon going higher with a quick swing finishing off with a balance on his toes and spinning around to look at Takeshi, “Easy without shoes! I don’t wear shoes so I can balance all good! You should try without shoes!” Bouncing on the branch he soon bounced away further, having a swing around to tease Takeshi.

T’charrl didn’t understand what would cause a desire to kill like that, it just wasn’t in his nature to understand such a thing. Hearing him say such things only made him remember his own childhood, how his parents were the only ones that showed love to him while everyone else thought he was weird and weak because of what he could do and how often he got beaten by the enemy. “Uhh, not everyone…I mean, uhh, I mean yes, but, uhh…” He was finding it hard to understand any of it, especially when he was not entirely sure about what he was asking in the first place. He didn’t know what he said wrong or if he said anything wrong at all, just that he wasn’t going to be allowed to kill anyone around these guys. Feeling confused, the comment about belonging hit a bit of a sensitive spot for him, his eyes briefly looking down at himself before back to Haku. Here he was hoping to get back to his people when they probably didn’t notice he was gone and never wanted him back anyway, especially when he was expected to lead by his mother. Haku was being overdramatic; he could fit in if he tried to be nice but with him he was just completely different and would always have to hide who he truly was if he was to be moderately happy at best. The pressure to try desperately to fit in was feeling too great already and here he was heading straight for the source. When Haku suddenly bolted ahead after Takeshi and Shu his focus remained on him, slowing down a little before he tripped up, sliding along the ground a little bit and hitting a tree. The tree hardly moved upon impact but it sure did hurt.
Viral could see nothing around him that would suddenly come to life and try to eat her or explode in her face, especially when a lot of the flora around the place was as timid as anything. For as little fungi as there was around the place none of them looked like they would explode, plus they didn’t exactly need to go anywhere near those things even if they did react violently. “You realise you just got a stick, a rock and some grass while trying to justify possible poisoning and being consumed? The hell kind of stuff did you think we were going to do if that was on your mind?” he questioned her before groaning, “You don’t need to know about that sort of stuff unless you’re foraging…not making a weapon…” She had to learn to separate such fears when she was making a weapon and go for very raw materials. The grass wouldn’t harm them when they had been walking on it all the time, after all. It was all fine and good to be worrying about dangers when they were looking for food and creatures, but creating a weapon was hardly a threat to their health. Looking around the area for any signs of prey he looked to Yumi when she asked about his weapon, shaking his head. “I have my own weapons and know how to make my own. This is for you and for me to see if you still have it. I’ll use weapons once I know you’re ready to hunt without my guidance”.

Choi shrugged, grinning a little. “If you want to blame T’charrl for it then I’ll tell him! Then you’ll have to deal with the guilt of making him depressed and endangering his own people”, he sighed heavily, “Ohhh man, that would suck, huh?” Having a depressed friend walking around was not something Choi wanted to have and he was sure Kabocha didn’t either, even if Kabocha wasn’t one for expressing his feelings very well. Hoping that the aliens had forgiven them for doing such a thing was definitely on his mind since it would mean they wouldn’t really be able to get around much if they had an angry mob chasing after them. Descending with his brother after Kabocha he looked around the area, wondering if there was any real need to get down low at this time when they could easily fly in like all the other citizens. They all had wings so they probably used them for travelling around just like they used flight so why did they have to go down so low. “Shouldn’t we just fly straight in like they would? I mean…they have wings, right? They would just fly in anyway!”

Shu would love some trees in the ship if it was manageable, especially when it meant he would be able to feel better while on the ship just by going to see them and be amongst them. If he could feel like that he would definitely be happier and not as tired all the time. “Trees and dirt! Ooh! I hope so, I really do!” Swinging along through the trees he soon noticed out of the corner of his eye Takeshi was trying to get to him, returning that thought with a brief giggle as he bounced from side to side along the trees. “No shoes! Not doing!” he giggled, bouncing from tree to tree, swinging around them every so often, “You not gonna catch me! No catching me!” Shu knew he could be a lot more manoeuvrable around the trees than Takeshi, especially when he had a tail and Takeshi greatly lacked one. It was fun and he was sure Takeshi was having fun too, but there was no way he was going to let him catch up to him.

T’charrl wasn’t sure how the city had recovered after that battle he had with the General, especially when an entire complex had been nearly levelled and was not covered by a massive tree. He didn’t mean for any of that to happen but it was all he could do. The tree was probably going to be annoyed with his return as well, especially when he was the one that grew it there in the first place. Maybe it would be happy for his return, especially when nobody else interacted with it in the way he interacted with trees. Glancing to Haku he frowned when he instead expressed disdain over his family, looking away and letting out a sigh at his words. To wish death upon someone else was not a particularly healthy mental state, making him wonder what the guy would do if he hated him instead. Being treated badly was no reason to wish death upon someone who never tried to kill you back; the only reason he ever killed anyone was out of defence and to preserve his people. “Uhhh, I don’t think you should think like that, especially around these people”, he spoke, feeling a little uneasy, “They don’t kill others. Even I killed others but I was a scout, a warrior Prince. I needed to learn how to kill to protect others even if they didn’t like me and treated me badly. It doesn’t make me wish death upon them just because they didn’t like me”.
“It’s not like it’s going to explode in your face if you try to use the plant! If it pops then whatever, you grab something else, but it’s not going to hurt you to try!” Yumi was really trying hard to come up with excuses, it seemed. Viral was just getting irritated with her excuses and lack of exploration even when this whole exercise was about exploration. They had to try and find the beasts before they could hunt and to hunt they needed a weapon. He wasn’t going to baby her through the entire process; she needed to figure it out on her own and learn from her own mistakes. Watching her try for something else he folded his arms, watching her decide on the grass but of course she was soon back to suggesting something pretty dumb in his eyes. “You’re not using your clothing! If you were out in the wilds and you had no sleeves what would you use??” he asked her before groaning, shaking his head, “Don’t bother. Use that grass, okay?? All you’re doing is getting on my nerves and it’s not helping at all. The sooner you figure out how to make this weapon the better, then we’ll be able to go out and kill something before I get bored…”

Choi didn’t want to get involved in Kai and Kabocha having their little fight, especially when he didn’t get the big deal. If they didn’t take it then whatever, they’d get food, but he thought maybe it was Kai who was making the biggest fuss. The guy didn’t want to cook, but he didn’t trust Kabocha to cook either. It was easy to tell what Kai was thinking when they were brothers and having no desire to cook meant he was going to avoid doing it completely for as long as possible. To not cook is to have a holiday and that’s what Kai wanted. Seeing the city ahead and Kabocha coming to an agreement to try and exchange his money certainly made things better. “It was long enough ago! Who knows how quick these guys are at rebuilding, especially after that mess we caused”, he spoke quickly, getting higher to try and see beyond the horizon more, “You know, we never actually cared how long a day lasted on this planet. They might repair things a lot faster because they’re up for longer, you know? Ever thought of that? T’charrl barely ever sleeps and it’s really weird already…”

Shu was probably the least likely to run out of steam in this forest, swinging around all crazy and happily. He didn’t know when to stop sometimes and had to keep looking back to see if the others were keeping up. Maybe he should head back around and get T’charrl involved again, but he was talking to that Haku guy. He was a pretty mean fella and Shu didn’t want to be near him, even feeling pretty anxious just looking at him. Going back to concentrating on swinging around he looked to his brother, squeaking with each jump he made. “Ooh! He would do? I hope so! Yes! Ooh! I hope he does it! There loads of space and much light!” He would certainly love to have trees in the ship, being able to swing around in them and sit under them made him feel so at home. The metallic nature of the space ship was just hard and cold, giving him no feeling of home whatsoever. “I wonder if maybe fruit trees! That would be nice. Ooh! I hope for nice soft ground too! Always sore and hard and cold for my feet…”

T’charrl didn’t know why Haku had chosen to speak to him but he wasn’t going to challenge it, seeing how he wasn’t causing any harm doing it. He was still a bit funny about him even if he helped him, but it was only natural when he was still a stranger and not one he got very well acquainted with when he was on Earth. Not really causing any trouble he sighed a little as he turned his head again, looking out to the path in front of him. “It is? Uhhh, thanks…I mean, it’s nothing special; Earth had them as well, just not like these ones”, he spoke, not quite understanding the compliment all that much. He thought Earth’s forests were amazing and he had always been around these ones so it was a little difficult to feel the same about it. “It is better underground, or at least…that’s where I live so I feel it’s better. I miss my home, my family and my people most. That is where it is best”.
