He picks up the different tone to Knives's voice. A tone he hasn't really heard before when his brother has discussed humans in the past. Yet they were still the same hateful words even if there wasn't as much hateful energy behind it. Vash decides not to trust it.] None of our sisters are here. [It was a lonely, isolating fact that Vash has had to live with for seven months now. A connection he had never truly been without completely severed and leaving him abandoned in a strange world.]

Its not fair of you to assume it was humans who molded this world in this way. I don't believe it was. [Nissen who was a major supporter and his abilities didn't seem human to Vash.] I'm not so sure the majority here are even human, but just look the part. Like we do. [He can't help himself as the last part slips out. He knows Knives dislikes it when he compares themselves to humans in anyway. So, maybe he was still at least a little bitter about his imprisonment back home.]

Knives, your hair, what have you done?! [The girls, Wolfwood, Brad... were any of his friends still alive?]
