[Now, in any other situation, Dandy would be ready to throw hands in a cartoonishly aggressive fashion. He's used to animorphic critters getting all up in his overly hair-gelled grill, one feline fuckhead in particular, but at least this one doesn't smell of day-old fish flakes. The yelling is enough to get him to lean back and massage the space between his brows with an index finger, as yet again he is experiencing an ache of sorts. Not a headache, or a stomachache, or even the ache of a broken heart. Something less tangible, metaphysical even, that sits not within a singular part of him, but resonates throughout his entire body and beyond.
A string connecting to other strings- Of time itself.]
You've got about five seconds to back the hell out of my face, Birdbrain. Or I'll tear that off that beak of yours and shove it right up those dinky tailfeathers. Then you'll definitely have somethin' to lay! Y'know, that isn't an egg, or... A lady.
[Despite his brash words, there's something about the alien hunter's expression that changes drastically. Dandy goes with the flow in most situations, but something about this particular cosmic tide strikes him as bizarre.]
Dead doesn't mean gone.
[He gets the funny feeling that he's had a similar experience before, although he can't quite remember the specifics of it. That very sensation, the notion that he's gone not to hell and back but someplace else where the living reside no longer... It's like deja vu.
But when did it happen? Where?]
Also? I'm an alien hunter, which means I wrangle weirdoes for a living. In space! I'm no murderer! What the hell am I supposed to do? You're the professional lifesaver, aren'tcha? How many of those lives did you manage to save, hah?
