Well...n-neither have I. But I've seen them in documentaries and stuff.
[ That's about as Wild as Rhys had gotten before getting stuck on the hell that is Pandora. Holovids showing and describing far-off and exotic wildlife was the modern version of an immersive experience. ]
[ dutch hasn't watched a nature documentary in her life. what she knows about wildlife is from khlyen describing it to her: what's dangerous, what isn't, what she can use to kill others, what she can use to heal herself if someone's hurt her. what she can eat. ] Did you watch a lot of those?
What? No--yes, I have, but not...outdoors-y ones. Just regular stuff. You know? Like housecats or dogs? And...technically some absolutely horrific Pandoran ones but I'm not sure they count as animals.
[ Animals shouldn't be able to bite people in half okay and they shouldn't be four stories high and full of other monsters. ]

You want an exact number?? I don't exactly know, I-I just meant that there are...a lot of them. At least four?
[ That's a lot when there's only ever 6 magical women in existence at a time in his world. ]
no subject
[ that's how many dutch knows. ]
no subject
There's probably more from the sound of things. Did you know we have a talking raccoon?? That's--that's weird, right? It's not just me?
no subject
I've met him. Cute fellow. [ "cute". she actually thinks he's competent. ]
no subject
[ It's...it's exactly how it sounds. When Zelos casts magic he sparkles like a magical girl ]
no subject
[ who called her hunny and by virtue of that alone made her want to punch him. ]
no subject
Man. I never thought I'd say that about a raccoon.
[ YEAH That would definitely be Zelos, but since Rhys has a wang he didn't get the hunny treatment ]
no subject
[ aka refused to skin and eat a bunny. dutch can't actually blame him for that. ]
no subject
Or wait, maybe that's pigs.
[ He knows they really like to clean their paws? ]
no subject
[ c'mon, buddy. ]
no subject
[ He didn't want to bring it up??? Just in case that was somehow normal for Ditch after all. He didn't want to be the only one out?? ]
no subject
[ look, animal life in her universe isn't identical to animal life on earth or whatever. ]

Oh, yeah totally. I mean what else is there to do on the Edens growing up? It's not like you're going to go out and actually see a real wild animal.
no subject
What, you've never seen a real animal before this trip?

no subject
[ But yes. ]
We have stuff like...small birds and things. But not bears or...or wolves or anything okay?
no subject
no subject
No, I've never wrestled a bear. Why would anyone want to?? Those things are huge. And unless you're a Vault Hunter I'm pretty sure they'd kill you.
no subject
What's a Vault Hunter?
no subject
They're like...mercenaries. If mercenaries were serious badasses that could defeat giant alien monsters.
no subject
[ not to brag, but ] I think I count, then.
no subject
[ Dutch are you and even bigger bad ass than he already thinks you are?? ]
