[He is ASKING SHUT UPPP. I want to go back to giving you dumbass characters a bi gass instead of THIS.]
Searching for another beautiful world to destroy. How like humans to use up all they have without care and then run to do it somewhere else in a panic.
... They're doing something about it, considering earth is still habitable a hundred or so years later.
[ He doesn't say that with any defensive tone. He may sympathize, but he doesn't think he needs to defend them. D isn't going to suddenly start mass murder humans! Right?! RIGHT??? HAHA!! ]
... It must be rough since you run a pet shop, right? What people do doesn't just affect them, it affects the innocent critters they share the space with.
[ Vash's voice is significantly less clown, instead soft and gentle.
With a little tug, they can come closer to the tree. ]
Don’t just validate him like this only to turn around later and show you’re a human sympathizer. Tch…
He is uncertain at first, and T-chan gives a kind of warning growl, but touch week keeps D from resisting. He follows Vash toward the tree, T-chan in tow.]
I ran my grandfather’s pet shop while he was away, and we filled it with the lost and unwanted or endangered.
No, not really. They are treated with respect, and once they are with their new owner, they will know how best to behave. Their owner has signed a contract stating they understand the guidelines for keeping them. Should the contract be broken, the shop is not liable for whatever may happen, and the pet is returned to me.
There's equal opportunity for them to change for the better. The future is blank! But... Sometimes people need to know and learn first and that's the undertaking for those who know the struggles and problems intimately.
[ And this is where he sizes up to D, shoulders bumping. ]
Your brother? [The request makes him sigh gently.] There isn't much to teach... It's a martial arts technique. You are using your opponent's weight and momentum to your advantage.
Even if you are small and they are large, you usually can toss them by upsetting their balance, then pulling them over your shoulder using your hips.

You said it wasn't by choice.
[Explain what it means, broom head, he wants to know the human-planet lore because he's a weirdo.]

They crashed.
[ YEAH? ]
no subject
And? Are you always this difficult?
[HE IS ABOUT TO RATSHAKE VASH UPSIDE DOWN.]
They crashed what? A ship?
no subject
[ HElpP Maybe they mentioned colony ships?! Maybe they didn't?! ]
Colony ships. When earth's resources were low, humans started searching the galaxy for new planets to inhabit in case things went wrong back at home?
[ or just colonize, honestly ]

You really don't like humans.
no subject
Barely, I assume.
[Unfortunately, his tone is slightly defensive and embittered, not unlike a patch of road rash being rub by clothes. Something painful.
He frowns and turns his head away, in the direction of the tree even if he's not really intending to look at it.]
I dislike them. I dislike what they're doing to the world without care for anything else living on it.

Did you do anything about it when you were alive?

[Wow, what a question.

He places a hand on the tree and looks up to the branches. LOOKING GOOD? MAYBE? SOMEONE BETTER WATER THIS AFTERLIFE TREE. ]
That sounds like a really nice shop. Here I thought it was a place where you kept dogs and cats to be adopted...
[ He barely has seen housepets in his life. ]
no subject
His own defensive expression softens as he lifts his eyes up through the tree as well.]
We have dogs and cats. We have any pet you may desire. Big and small, domesticated and wild.
no subject
The desire part does remind him that it is a shop. ]
Doesn't it put you in a weird spot to be selling them?
no subject
No, not really. They are treated with respect, and once they are with their new owner, they will know how best to behave.

[ A little tease. ]
You could work on how you feel about other people, though. Not everyone is bad.
no subject
I'm aware, but most are. They have been, or they will be. Humans, at least.
no subject
[ And this is where he sizes up to D, shoulders bumping. ]
You a good teacher?
no subject
The learning is taking too long. The world will be a husk by the time they realize, too late, what they've done to it.
[The bump makes him look at Vash.]
I suppose. Why?
no subject
[ IT REALLY IS JUST KNIVES. ]
I was wondering if you'd teach me the move you did earlier!

[ He puts it lightly. ]
That sounds like something to teach to me!
no subject
[STOP VALIDATING KNIVES. Can't stand it out here.]
...Fine. I'll teach you, but do not throw me on the ground like a ruffian.
no subject
[ stop sympathizing with knives. anyway. ]
Cool!
