All Knives can really process as Vash struggles in terror to escape is this is the most adorable thing he has ever encountered. This little independent is so fierce and bitey, trying to be ferocious like an alley kitten picked up off the street, and much like holding onto a squirming, biting and clawing kitten, it's actually a bit of a challenge to keep from letting him go too soon. By the time he gets the door closed he can't actually manage it anymore without potentially hurting Vash, and watches as the small shape darts for cover, following at a leisurely stroll. He knows right where the small plant is even when he doesn't have line of sight. "Contrary to rumors, I don't actually eat my own kind. Won't you come out and say hello?" He also could really use more experience with children, this isn't the most friendly way to get to meet a frightened kid.
