[a couple of days later n a bunch of Watchdog troops sent out later, the planet was soon conquered, as well as the sister planet itself, n it was time for Wander to get tht collar for Hater]
Hater: [tugged at the chain on his ankle connected to the bed, grumbling as he couldnt use his power to break it n resorted to chewing it to see if he could get it out]
Wander: (enters) No good doing that. You'd break your mouth or something.
Hater: [frowned at him] Doesn't mean I can't try. Wat do u want?
Wander: Only checking on you. (hands behind his back)
Hater: Well, I'm stuck here now, can't go anywhere. Nothing more tht u can chk on me [grumbling as he crossed his arms, seem to be a trait of his wen he's frustrated]
Wander: (leans in) Doesn't mean if you do escape, we'd lose track of you so easily...
Hater: Why r u still keeping me ard? Why dont u just knock me up n be done with it? I gave u tht chance the first day we met. I might've fought u, bt u could've gotten lucky. Better yet, sell me bk. U dont hv to deal with this
Wander: I'm not taking you back to anything. This is your new home now. It may not get through to you right now but it will eventually.
Hater: This is NOT my home! I HAD a home! I STILL hv it! I wanna go home! I wanna go home n make them PAY! Make them ALL PAY!! [pants hard frm his outburst]
Wander: (simply listens) ...You don't deserve that sort of family if they care nothing about you.
Hater: They're gonna WISH they'd care wen I'm done with them! I'm gonna... [realized he was ranting n stopped, looking away] Its none of ur business anyways. I said too much
Wander: ...You need more time then expected. And that's okay.
Hater: Hmph! Watevr! U done chking on me now? Just leave me alone! I hate u!
Wander: ...Call if you need anything. (turns to leave but glances back at the skeletor)
Hater: [doesnt reply wen he said tht, then glared at him wen he glanced bk, daring him to do anything]
Wander: ... (shakes his head and leaves him be)
Sylvia: [sees Wander showing up at the navigation room] Ah, heya, buddy. Where's the Breeder? I thought u were gonna do tht collar thing
Wander: ...It doesn't feel right somehow...
Sylvia: Why not? U dont wanna risk him escaping u and u end up losing him n not be able to find him evr again, do u?
Wander: I want to able to gain his trust differently, Syl. The collar just feels like I'm forcing him to do so.
Sylvia: It's just for precaution, buddy, in case he escapes again n u lose him forevr. But its ur decision. U do ur thing then. Just dont come crying to me wen u lose him (smirk)
Wander: Oh shush. (lightly punches her arm)
Sylvia: (giggle) So r u gonna conquer the rest of the solar system while ur at it?
Wander: Might as well catch up. (pauses) ...Any recent calls from Mama?
Sylvia: No, but ur sister Firefly did call on her behalf. She said she wanted to catch up, n maybe tell u something abt ur mom
Wander: I see... (feels bad about the last time he talked with Wildflower, he had snapped)
Sylvia: [noticed his expression n pats his bk] Hey, its OK. She'll get ovr it. U already said ur peace, n it had to be said. She had to understand one way or another
Wander: I know...
Sylvia: Btw just so u knw, if u evr plan on getting tht collar, u hv to bring tht breeder along with u, coz it's one of those custom made things tht they hv to take measurements personally
Wander: Right (nod)
