( the voice that pipes up on the network only does so after a prolonged pause, and when it does, it's... flat. quiet. spacing out words carefully as though it's trying very hard to think of the right way of phrasing things.

or like it's simply never figured out how to talk correctly. )

... What are humans like, in your world? Are they... good?

( he's met humans here, both otherworlders and natives, and seen Red Wine post asking how Food Souls would be treated on other worlds, but he asks the question anyway.

Cordyceps would not approve of this, but Cordyceps isn't here. the situation is different. the aims and goals are different. and the people he listens to are different too. )

[In her experience, at least, it rarely hurts to think about things. There may not be a good answer, and not all things are likely to be something one should dwell on, but taking the time to consider is rarely bad in itself.]

It is the way of people. To be different from one another.

( it is, if he thinks about it, a little galling to have to think about this. people were happy to see him as nothing more than property of his Master, unthinking and unfeeling, but those people are long dead.

should he blame the humans that have nothing to do with that? nor anything to do with what happened to other Food Souls, who didn't even know what Food Souls were until they met himself or Red Wine here in Avalon? )

I guess so.

( hm. )

... Thank you.

[Whether or not he should is a question Fran cannot answer. Nor would she, even should she know more of the reasoning behind the initial query. Some matters are best left to one's own decisions.]

Mmm.

[The slight nod that goes with it passes unnoticed over audio, but it's clear enough she means it in roughly the same vein as "you're welcome".]
