[Huh. Of all the things Vash expected of this conversation, this certainly wasn't one of them. The corner of his lip tips upward in a quarter of a smile. Gingerly, he holds his hand out to shake.]
I guess you could say that.
[Though now that he has a second to think about what's been said...]
You mentioned something about a beacon? And more humans?
Yay! I suppose no eating the Punisher huh? Despite him deserving it.
[ Zazie slaps their hand into Vash's and shakes vigorously, their grin turning a little before they stick out their tongue. At least they let go and it wasn't some elaborate trap for them to bother Vash more or something.
Maybe. ]
Oh that. Yeah, the little light display you send off into space. I don't know if it's just that, or if it boosted your other ships communications somehow but~ You're about to have friends from Earth!
[ And how Zazie knows that, they will never tell. ]
[He practically squawks it, and absolutely would have snatched his hand away if they didn't grab it so quick. Admittedly he... is a little surprised that it really just was a handshake. Look at them. Character growth. He doesn't know what that is.]
I can't imagine that would have boded well for Nai.
[Maybe it's a good thing that -
Well. He's not going to think about that part, thank you.]
He deserves it, though! He blasted us in half! It's harder to think like this, you know. The babies are just babies so they're not exactly contributing much to thought.
Or, considering how he's hoarding the plants, it would have been just fine for him! Definitely don't know, he sort of-
[ They put their hands together, then dramatically blow them apart while wiggling their fingers. Even they don't know what fully happened to all the bits and pieces of Millions Knives. Burnt away. Blown all over the place. Sprinkled like ashes over all of Nomans.
But also, knowing Knives and that Elendira was a successful half clone- ]
Don't worry about it. Worry instead how you plan on getting me back so I can turn the others. And hope it doesn't take another two years for me to come around. You got a lot to do.

Probably means more Plants too.

Anyway, he's wincing at Zazie's pantomiming here. Come on! That's his brother.]
I can figure out how to get you back there. Somehow. I just don't know if it's best that I come with. It still feels... risky.
