"Wha... no that doesn't make it better, that makes it worse!" Chika exclaimed in answer to Karakael's question. "Fuck, people don't need more incentives to turn on each other or be shitty to their kids!" As much as he resented his dad sometimes, he knew he had it pretty good in the parent department. That didn't mean he was unaware of how many shitty parents there were.
"Look, this Elloran guy said you could make robots if you wanted to, that would do the same thing," he said, struggling to be realistic. He knew that there were things other people considered 'right' and 'moral' that were disgusting to him but not necessarily evil. But slavery wasn't one of them, and as far as he was concerned, neither was chopping up freshly dead people to make servants out of them. "If you did that, then people wouldn't have any reason to sell their kids for parts, right? So wouldn't that be better?"
He glanced sideways at Shito, a little startled by his partner's vehemence. Shito was usually the pessimistic one of the two of them, not the one declaring that you 'fight until you either win or die'.
