T’charrl wasn’t as excited about this as Katas was, clearly, but he was still trying to be excited over something he had little understanding over. This was Katas’s machine and the future of his people in terms of technology, giving it his care and attention. He didn’t want to break anything and send his people back in terms of technological intelligence. Trying to calm down a little he looked to Katas who was fairly excited over all this, as usual. The guy never gave him any talking down to so that was encouraging, sort of. Smiling nervously he looked back to the controls, doing what he needed to do to get the machine moving. It sure was scary having to be the first pilot for such a massive machine and yet Vegeta and his pilots barely had a problem with driving a massive one. If his people were to advance he would need to be a good example for them to start off and hopefully be able to find a way to peacefully travel between kingdoms in a relaxed manner. Slowly moving the throttle’s power up he sighed lightly as the airship managed to find the power it needed to feel stable, smiling a little when everything appeared to be going right. “Love flying? Maybe, I mean… I already love flying with my own wings”, he spoke calmly, still trying to concentrate on getting it into the air first, “Is this okay? I hope it is because I don’t know what I’m doing completely…”
Shu didn’t like that noise, especially when it always reminded him of the vans on Earth. If this was going to be any different then he would definitely need to try and relax, hopefully not making T’charrl too nervous as well. Holding onto Takeshi he tried to calm himself, down, frowning when he mentioned the shaking. “Really…? I hope so, I don’t want to be frightened and tired…” he spoke lowly, not quite over being spooked. Lowering his head he looked away, looking to the benches when Takeshi tried to lead him over in that direction. He didn’t know if he wanted to let go of Takeshi but he probably should, even if it meant he might get thrown around the airship if something went wrong. Moving along with him he stared at the floor, hoping that keeping his mind off the fact that movement was inevitable. “Ooh…a boat? No, not been in a boat”, he frowned, having to add it to one of the latest normal things he had never done in his life, “I don’t know how it’ll help if I’ve never been on a boat…but water is kind of scary. Hard to swim! Don’t know if I remember how to swim too…”
T’charrl was hoping he was getting it all correct, but there was only one way to see once he finally managed to get it flying and eventually landed in the other kingdom. Checking the rudder before finally moving his claws to the controls he jumped a little when Haku appeared out to the side, frowning when he decided to give the console a flick. “Uhh, this ship was meant to be flown by my people and you’re small like Shu”, he spoke quickly, looking back to the controls so he could bring the ship into the air, “I have to do this if I am to be an example for my people to follow…and you being small wouldn’t give you the reach, anyway”. He didn’t trust Haku with piloting something as expensive as this, especially when he didn’t seem to care all that much in the first place. He barely seemed to be enjoying the sights or participating in discussions so he figured his care level was near zero for actually being here to support him. “Why don’t you try talking to the others…?”

So this whole trip was just to show off the new machine to the other kingdom. T’charrl wasn’t too happy with that and definitely had issues with the whole showing off new technology, probably because he was pretty humble and didn’t like to show off. If he was going to drive it then he wasn’t going to show off, his eyes going to Katas who decided to bail on him. You’d think someone like Katas would want to fly on the airship, but probably because of the possibility that he might crash being fairly high. Looking down at the controls again he frowned a little at the sight of them. “Uhh no, no I don’t think so”, he sighed, taking the controls, trying to get the machine to work. He didn’t know what it ran on, maybe something to do with the energy that lingered in the air but not many people knew about that. Starting up the machine he was surprised when it actually worked, his claws moving to grab onto the console in fright. He didn’t expect it to start up so suddenly, looking each way before placing his claws properly on the consoles, trying to remember everything he was told. “Uhh! W-Was that supposed to do that??” he panicked briefly before reaching for the anchor to pull it up. He had barely moved and was already panicking completely, but he was trying hard to keep calm and concentrate on what he was doing. He didn’t know how to control the machine completely other than through instructions so it was definitely scary having to do such a thing.
Shu couldn’t understand how those things could hold them all up, especially when he probably couldn’t even lift this airship without trying really hard. He was curious as to how they worked, frowning a little when he came to no suitable conclusion even when Takeshi tried to help him. Looking down to Takeshi’s hand his own hand went to his eye, rubbing it lightly. “But I don’t get it if it’s so heavy…” He really had no idea how it was even able to lift itself, but then again T’charrl could fly even when he was giant but he could blow everyone away with his wings too. He certainly worried how people beneath the airship put up with the wings if they were going to flap. Looking up to Takeshi he stared at him with confusion, giving a little nod before lowering his head as his hair was ruffled. “Ooh, I’ll try…I’ll try! I’ll be brave, I will!” he nodded before squealing as the ship suddenly started to make noises and shifted slightly, prompting Shu to take hold of Takeshi, wrapping his arms around him again, “Ah! Nooo! I don’t know how to be brave! Scary moving under feet!”
T’charrl didn’t think the controls were too difficult looking at them. If Kata’s instructions were correct then he shouldn’t have too much of a problem with these, his eyes scanning over them to memorise them. If something went wrong he was in charge of trying to set everything right, hoping he was up to the challenge. He hadn’t ever had to do something like this before but he figured it was the same as learning how to use a weapon, only this one held people and was used for travel instead. Maybe it wasn’t too much like a weapon, but he still had the full understanding that it was delicate and needed to be understood before it could be properly wielded. Slowly moving his crutches around he moved his other arms to the controls, feeling them out before looking to the strange handled one that Katas seemed quite enthusiastic over. Frowning he glanced over to him, sighing lightly. “Wait, where do I land this thing when I get there? Do they know we’re coming? What if they shoot at us and we have to land? I feel like I should know where I should put this thing when I get there…is there a radio in this…?”
Shu didn’t know what to think of the airship, finding it to be completely foreign in itself. He had never seen anything like this, just the floaty colourful things they had at the tournament and at that party for Viral so seeing them so massive and part of the vehicle certainly confused him. It worried him to a great extent, but certainly not as much as the thought of it having wheels and bobbing along on the ground at a high speed. Rubbing his hands together he looked up at Takeshi, frowning when he was pulled in before his eyes went around the vehicle, his feet shifting a little. “Umm, a little neat. Bigger than the other one that is little too”, he muttered, remembering how cramped that one was, “I’ve never seen anything like this before. Do those floaties hold us up…? What do the wings do? Aren’t we too heavy? What happens if we’re too heavy? Do we fall and get hurt real bad? I don’t know if I can fly while falling, not had a lot of practice…”
T’charrl really didn’t want to burden the others with flying this thing when they already had all of their own concerns or looked like they might not manage it. He didn’t want any of them worrying that they might not understand the controls or if their language was being used specifically in the instructions, meaning they would have a hard enough time figuring out if something went wrong. There was always a great possibility of the worst happening, but he would try and make sure none of it did. The airship was fitted for Kaesstrian flight and he was the only other Kaesstrian that wasn’t a guest so he would have to do it, frowning when Katas decided to make a fuss over it. “Uhh, don’t mention the travel thing?” he muttered, giving a glance to the musician. Not everyone knew that he had gone to Space and he didn’t really want the guy to be fussing over him upon that knowledge or falling into disbelief that he went. There was always going to be one non-believer, but he really didn’t want it to start up anything that might sound like lying. Letting out a sigh he looked to the door, watching the ramp curiously before slowly following after Katas. The instructions sounded easy enough, but looking at the machine he had no idea how it might handle. “I won’t go too fast. If we go too fast we might fall to the ground faster than we can escape”, he sighed, shaking his head, “I won’t screw it up. I can’t screw up this as well, you know…”
Shu was rather curious over the large contraption, staring up at the strange beast he squeaked when the door opened, watching as the ramp popped out of it too. He didn’t know what this machine was but it was a vehicle like everyone was saying, still making him feel nervous. If something bad happened then he didn’t know what he’d do, but then again he was probably going to be able to blame his tiredness if that happened. Frowning, he looked to Takeshi when he spoke to him, his eyes soon looking around again to see the inside of the airship. He didn’t know what to make of it only that it was a flying box this time, not one with wheels. “Ooh, okay…” he squeaked, slowly climbing off Takeshi and slowly walking around, staring at the seats at first before looking around at the roof and walls. He kept his hands close to his chest as if for comfort as he investigated, his feet shuffling and his tail low. He didn’t know if it was going to be safe and would probably have to see how it handled in the air, his eyes going to T’charrl upon knowing he was going to be the one piloting it. “…Maybe…it’ll be okay for me…” he spoke lowly, looking back to Takeshi, “I still want you near me, if that’s okay…”
T’charrl didn’t like it when it was the truth, knowing he was fighting his entire life. Even as a child he had to be careful incase he got stolen away so he grew up being pretty nervous about being on his own without a weapon. Now that he had hidden weapons and Ki to use he wasn’t too nervous, but there would always be that time when he would be worried that he might get snuck up upon. If that happened now he would probably change, revealing to everyone the monster he is. Everything would be ruined if that happened and he would have to go into hiding and hope he was going to Space soon. There would be no way he would be able to live that down, at least not in this point in time. Being accepted as the monster he was would take a lot of work, especially if this would never be possible to reverse. His biggest problem was enjoying the power he gained, something probably from the very depths of his DNA he didn’t even know he had. He was just getting nervous at this point, worrying that he might freak out in front of the King and ruin everything.
Not sounding completely confident over the figure Katas was giving him he sighed and lowered his head, following after Katas nervously. He was always going to be seeing the terrible outcome no matter the possibility, especially when everything bad seemed to happen when he was around. He really needed to get his luck under control, hopefully before he set out again with his friends to fight their ultimate enemy. “Well…if you think it will work, then I’ll believe you. I just hope everything goes alright, that’s all…” He would certainly try to not think about it too much so if bad things happened he couldn’t blame it on himself, even if the doubt was always going to be there. Moving along in nervous anticipation he looked up once they finally made it outside, feeling confused at first to what he was looking at. It sure was scary looking and so new to him, despite having rode in a ship into Space. If this was the future of his people he didn’t know how he was supposed to react but it was certainly a sight to see. Looking between Takeshi, Katas and the machine he felt a little worried when the pilot was not made clear, instead one of them needing to play the pilot. Frowning, seeing Takeshi carrying a tired Shu around made him take into consideration his inability to pilot it and it would be too selfish to make the musician drive it. Sighing lightly he raised his claws. “I’ll pilot it, I suppose. I don’t want to steal any glory, but it seems I must”.
T’charrl didn’t want to seem rude but it would be weird telling the musician that he went to Space, especially when it had never been done in the history of their planet. He didn’t want to sound like he was bragging or anything, only souring their meeting. It would soon be known all around and even though he didn’t really want to become famous his parents were going to make sure he was seen as something great for when he would take over the kingdom. He was happy enough to had been able to travel around with his friends, even if he went through a lot of aches and pains along the way. Smiling nervously in hope that he saved his question he sighed lightly and looked away, scratching his cheek. “That’s quite refreshing. It must be great being so loved”, he sighed, looking back with a smile, “Even after ending the war in my kingdom there’s still hostiles around. Even now I don’t feel relaxed”. Finally making it to Katas he couldn’t help but groan, rubbing his armpits as he was given a moment of relief from the crutches. He didn’t like feeling all fragile and weak like this but it wasn’t something he’d be able to fix anytime soon. Giving Katas a smile he looked up briefly, feeling curious about the vehicle. “It’s uhh…nice to see you too. We’ll get to it. Has it been tested enough to be safe…?”
Shu didn’t think there was much time to wait when it came to Viral getting better, especially when he had faith in Vegeta to make him better. It was a little upsetting seeing Viral look so miserable and had been purposely trying to avoid seeing him, especially when it was mainly his body language that caused distress. He always had a slight limp and flinched whenever he touched something or was touched, always looking like an angry irritated cat. “Mister Vegeta has much to do, though…he no even come out for food with us…” he mumbled, slowly shaking his head, “Too busy for someone like me. Why no just not sleep for a bit and try forgetting things happened? Can’t remember then not have dreams that are bad, right? I can stay up…” Not proving to have the ability to stay up he rested his head against Takeshi, sighing when Katas decided to give Takeshi a fright. He barely made a reaction to that and just kept a tight grasp of Takeshi, looking over Takeshi’s shoulder to take a look at Katas. So he wasn’t going into the vehicle quite yet, luckily for him and could try and wake himself up some more before he had to go into it. He didn’t want to go in it while he was drowsy, worried that he would get ill and not find the trip to be at all enjoyable. He did wonder what adults did to keep awake, especially when the likes of Vegeta barely ever slept and still looked bright and awake.
T’charrl really hoped things were okay, feeling fairly relieved that the man seemed to be fairly pleasant and happy. He was definitely not wanting to have the man go to his King and upset this apparently pleasant man, creating further tension and making everything go horribly wrong. Maybe there was something else he could do to try and ease tensions, possibly getting the soldiers trained properly to see the difference between a weapon and a lute for starters. He did wonder why they would think that was a worry, especially when the man probably came flying in plain view and if there was any sort of aggressive rebel heading their way why they would go for the one with the lute. Smiling nervously he looked away for a moment, rubbing his neck. “Umm uhh, maybe it’s something to talk to your King about, especially when it’s apparently a big deal for everyone to know in my kingdom”, he spoke lowly, feeling a little too nervous to tell a stranger where he’s been lately. It may had been a big deal to his parents, but it was something he’d rather reveal to someone in an authoritative position rather than be laughed at because they didn’t believe him. “Really? He sounds great. And nobody’s ever tried to kill him?” he asked before quickly shaking his head, “Uhh I-I mean…well uhh, i-it’s been a long war for my family and…I didn’t mean any hostility, just not had a chance to experience such a life, is all. I’d love to have a life like that when I’m King…”
Shu wasn’t too sure whether Takeshi was truthful with that, but he was just hoping the nightmares would eventually go away on their own. If he didn’t think about his experiences too much then maybe they would eventually disappear, but that would mean he would have to stay up for a few nights to full forget the memories. They always returned when he was in silence and sleeping so the solution he saw was to keep up; however, Takeshi would never let him and he would be called silly for thinking such a thing would help him. Squeaking when Takeshi bounced him he let out a groan, slowly rubbing his cheek against Takeshi. “But if he’s busy then he won’t want to…” he spoke lowly, “Why not wait for Mister Viral to get better…? Maybe he’ll see me then? I don’t know…I’m not too good at thinking things…” Hoping to recover from his sleepiness with Takeshi’s help his eyes soon went to what was going on in the building, looking around slowly before looking down to the stairs as Takeshi climbed up them. Watching as they passed his vision he looked back to Takeshi upon hearing his suggestion, curious to how that might help. “Ooh? Maybe…would it have windows?” he asked before sighing, wrapping his tail around Takeshi, “Can I hold you close to me when we go too…? It might move a lot and then it gets squishy and I don’t like it when it gets squishy and movings much…”
T’charrl was always going to be afraid of confrontation until he was comfortable with who he was and right now he was still worried if someone was going to point out his pretty big flaws in his appearance and their wonder to what they might be. He didn’t want people to get too curious and touch him. The musician seemed to be dismissing it at least or preferring not to talk about it in front of him. Giving a little nervous smile he sighed and lowered his head into a quick bow. “We should had known you might not find your way. I didn’t even know you were coming here either…I mean, I arrived back earlier today”. He didn’t quite know whether he could make any more excuses but he was certainly not going to draw out the problem anymore, especially when it was a simple misunderstanding. Giving a little smile he let out a sigh, rubbing his head. “Well uhh, we just found peace again after a long time so umm…i-it’s just a good time to relax now, but it’s easy to be nervous about the arrival of strangers when they could be taking advantage of the calm. This’ll be my first time going to another kingdom so I-I’m definitely excited about seeing your King”.
Shu used to love sleeping but it had been a chore for him for a long time now, the distant memory of sleep being welcoming feeling like a dream in itself. He didn’t think he would ever get to this point in his life but he was here and there was nothing he could do about it other than wait until he got back to normal somehow. It was a matter of waiting and seeing with him rather than actively trying to do anything about it. He didn’t know what he could do anyway, especially when it was all in his mind. Climbing up onto his brother’s back he let out a sigh, resting against his shoulder. Feeling a little more relaxed his eyes looked to Takeshi, frowning before lowering his gaze again. “It’s not fun…no it’s not”, he muttered before letting out a groan, “I don’t know how it gets fixed, how images get fixed…” He really saw no way for anything to actually work on him, especially when it was all in his mind. Viral’s problem was different; his problems come from pain filled memories that he was fully conscious over, however, Shu’s own experiences was less pain due to the drugs they used on him and more frightful and traumatic. Feeling confused about the possible solution he frowned at Takeshi, rubbing his cheek against him. “He’s so busy. I don’t know how he can do anything about it”, he sighed, feeling it was pointless to ask Vegeta, “I don’t even know how he can fix it for me. He never talks to me, anyway…”
T’charrl really did feel bad and hoped everything could be sorted once the musician got over his traumatic experience. It was not pleasant to be nearly locked up and have all sorts of harassment thrown at you just because you were invited to visit. It wasn’t going to help anybody, especially when it meant he might not come back. Smiling he soon sighed, lowering his head a little into a bow. “It would had been nicer if you weren’t harassed. I hope everything can work out for the better next time”, he smiled, hoping to make everything better despite the anxiety in his voice. He wasn’t used to sounding like he was royalty or talking to people in general. It was awfully difficult to do anything like that when he had little practice due to nobody wanting to be near him when he was growing up. Feeling happy that the musician will return again he gave a nod, looking away for a second. “My mother is very strong but she has a good heart. She would know how to find forgiveness from your King if he was not kindly”, he spoke quickly, trying to ease the man’s nerves, “I just, uhh…want to personally apologise to the King too. If he is as kind as you say then maybe he’ll let me umm…talk about…royal things too? I hope he’s okay with that sort of thing, at least”.
Shu didn’t know how he was supposed to handle the travelling to this kingdom place, especially when he was not feeling all that great. He wasn’t ill or anything but he might as well had been with how dazed he looked, giving his eyes a little rub to try and keep them open. He really needed to learn how to stay up as long as everyone else did, but then again it was often that he freaked out in the middle of his sleep. He was often pretty quiet when he did suddenly wake up but probably because he fell off his bed at the same time or had his face buried in the pillow. While not feeling too enthusiastic about travelling in the way they had to go he frowned and looked away from the conversation, instead looking elsewhere to try and distract him before squeaking when Takeshi ruffled up his hair, his hands going up before he turned to Takeshi. He didn’t know if he wanted to take up his offer since it meant sleeping, his eyes going to his back curiously. Letting out a sigh he lowered his head a little, rubbing his head before slowly moving to Takeshi. “Okay…I don’t want to sleep, though”, he sighed, moving around to climb onto Takeshi, “I don’t want to be scared in my sleep when we travel. That is the worst…”
T’charrl had no clue to where the musician had gone until he was told he had been found much later, finding it most unusual. He didn’t think it was possible to lose your way if you were invited to come to a city but then again it sounded as if the guy came without a guide and evidently ran into the same problem he did when he first arrived on the planet again. He really didn’t know what to make of the highly aggressive stance the soldiers were taking here, especially to a man with a lute. He should probably talk to his father about that, but not just now. He was definitely not sure how that was supposed to be welcoming to travellers and not seen as hostile at all by the other kingdoms, even if they had a security problem with a few rebels here and there. Resting on a crutch he frowned as he stared at the musician, his eyes going to Takeshi momentarily before he looked back to the musician, giving a nervous smile. His mother definitely was one for granting mercy to those who deserved it, but he did wonder how the guards were after they were found out by her. Only hoping there was no bad blood between them he let out a sigh, slowly rubbing his head. “I hope things are okay now, though. She, uhh…she’s very good at showing why she’s Queen”, he smiled nervously before frowning, “I hope this hasn’t soiled your desire to return here again. We’re just getting over a rather large conflict and uhh, the extra security is necessary for a while…but you’re welcome to stay in one of the guestrooms next time you come here! Your own personal guards too!”
Shu didn’t know what was going on but was keeping close to Takeshi, not entirely sure what to make of the Kaesstrian with the strange item. He hadn’t seen anything like it before and was definitely curious, but not curious enough to try and touch it. If only he knew what its purpose was and why he had it, but maybe it was best that he stayed curious and didn’t find out. He had so much to worry about and he was sure it was going to get worse, but luckily he was with Takeshi and hopefully that would be enough protection for him. He was a little tired but he could keep awake for his friend, not exactly used to how long the Kaesstrian days were. He was used to staying up until the sun went down and getting to sleep before any full moon decided to show itself. He really wasn’t sure if this planet had a moon but he was not going to take any risks and go to sleep when he could. There was so much that frightened him and forced him to take precautions, but it was all for his own good and for the safety of others.
