Fuku stays asleep, her tiny body curled up. Even for a moss baby, she bore striking resemblance to Arias in hairstyle, eyes, and body structure. Their kis were the exact same, however Arias had a much, MUCH more prominent power aura compared to Fuku's. "I honestly could go for a little bit of water, maybe." She replied as to Articho's comment asking if she wanted anything. She didn't want to seem like a leech to anyone, and was a rather gentle seeming character, with a large power to back up her right to be a gentle persona. She quirked a brow, watching Articho look at his arm.
Seeing him look at a specific spot, she wondered if it was possibly a place where that 'warrior' had chunked a fat piece of Articho's flesh off. "Neither would I. Personally I like to know where my flesh is." Her mouth curled up in a small amused smile, her ear flicking slightly as she was a bit tired and slightly overheated, but again, chose not to be a bother in any way possible. "True friends are like the anchors to your seaboat. They root you when you need them, you can call on them to be there for you. That is true friendship." The Saiyaness replied.

Articho blinked in surprise. She had completely passed over his comment about the Miracle Gro, even after exploding about the cabbage and dressing comment. He had expected a slap out of that one. Maybe that stuff did really work miracles. He nodded at her, then turned to look at his mother, still standing out on the porch. "Can you grab Ms. Arias a glass of water?" he asked, pointing his thumb in her direction. Yoguri nodded and walked back inside. Articho figured she'd grab Arias something to snack on, as well. Possibly mush up some fruits and vegetables to give to her baby. He paused for a moment. Woukd it be ethical to feed a moss baby plants? Was that cannibalism or what?
"So," Articho said after another moment's pause, "I have to ask: how exactly did you have a moss baby? 'Cause, between you and me, you don't look much like a tree." He smiled at his joke. Her statement about friendship made his happy expression fall. "Yeah, but it's kinda hard when a lot of my friends seemed to have disappeared mysteriously.

Arias blinked, watching Yoguri go inside to grab the water. A few beads of sweat trickled down her temples, and she was admittedly getting overheated, as shown by a slight red flush on her face. She looked at her sleepy daughter, and gently puts her hand over Fuku. In her sleep, Fuku grabbed onto Arias' hand and gently cuddled it. Something that made Arias softly aww, a smile was on the hybridess' face. Noting the pause, she wondered what he was thinking about, before hearing Articho speak yet agin.
Listening to Articho, she then replied when he was finished. "I don't look much like a tree, no. Did you see the resemblance? A man named Ayumu gave me a ball of moss, that when came in contact with my fingers and ki, transformed into my daughter. She was born from my own ki energy, and as a result bears my same energy signature." She explained, trying to keep it short, sweet, and to the point. Beating around the bush wasn't a good idea, and something Arias personally disliked.

Articho slowly looked at her again, then down at the baby in the basket. Ayumu did this? That old hermit can create life just because he can? Who was that guy? "I mean, I guess?" he said, shrugging his shoulders as he returned to painting. He finished up the section he was working on, took a look at the picture once more, and floated around to the next section. "It's still a baby and one made of moss, at that, so it's a little hard to see every similarity."
"Arti!" a female voice called out. Articho flew up a little bit to see over his ship and saw his mother with a bottle of water in her hand. The hybrid nodded towards her and gave Arias a "one moment" gesture before flying over the ship. He landed down in front of his mother, took the bottle, and turned back around to fly back up to his painting spot when his mother grabbed his wrist. She pulled herself closer and placed her mouth by his ear. "I heard that little 'Miracle Gro' comment," Yoguri said in a sickly sweet voice. Articho's face drained of color when he heard her speak. His mother never threatened him with words, but that voice might as well have been one. "You won't make another rude comment like that again, right sweetie?"
Articho nodded vigorously and she released his arm. He took off from the ground and flew back to his painting spot. He held the bottle out for Arias to take, then went back to painting.

Arias gently removed her hand from the grasp of her daughter. She looked up as she heard Yoguri, the heat causing her to land on the ground and buckle slightly, falling onto her knees with Fuku concerned for her mother. She looked up to see Articho's face turn pale, and wondered exactly what his mom was saying to make him turn so pale. She closed her eyes, shaking slightly from the sun bearing down on her, causing her to dehydrate quicker and get unhealthy levels of being overheated, and she passed out with Fuku crying for her mother.

Articho watched Arias grow steadily more red and her eyes becoming more unfocused by the second. He raised an eyebrow at her quizzically and shook the water bottle in his hand. "Are you going to take it or-" was all he said before she descended to the ground and went to her knees. His confusion changing to concern, he knelt next to her and waved his hand in her face after setting his painting supplies down. "Keep your eyes open," he instructed, still holding the bottle in front of her. "Focus on my face and take small si-" That's when she collapsed to the ground. The younger hybrid looked over at his mother, who shared the same look of concern. "She's overheating. I'll get her and the baby inside, you call the doctor."
Yoguri nodded and went back inside the house as her son hoisted the woman over his shoulder and took the basket in his hand. Overheating and dehydration weren't foreign concepts to him, it had happened to him plenty times before. Articho knew panicking over something this small wouldn't help anyone, so he took her inside and gently laid her down on the couch with the basket on the end table. He could hear his mother getting the ambulance over as he cracked open the water bottle and slowly poured small sips of water into her mouth. His main fear was that it was more than just some simple heat exhaustion. Anything worse than that and she would be in real trouble in she stayed in the Reville household. The doctor was the safest bet, no doubt about it.
----------
Within a few minutes, the ambulance arrived and set down in their front lawn. Articho helped them move the woman and baby into the hover car and watched them take off into the sky and fly back to the Western Capitol. He shaded his eyes as the car slowly shrank into a small dot, then disappeared into the horizon before gathering up his painting supplies again and getting back to work. The hybrid looked up from his ship for a minute to see his mother set out a cooler filled with ice cold water bottles. He rolled his eyes as his attention returned to painting. "There's no reason to be paranoid," he called out to Yoguri.
"Better safe than sorry," she replied. "Be sure to drink some, okay?"
"Trust me, staying hydrated was literally beat into my head when I was training. Now, some lemonade and nice lunch would do me some real good, if you catch my drift," Articho answered. His mother laughed and shook her head as she went back inside. Knowing her, he was sure that was exactly what she was about to make.
