"They get pointed at me a lot, by scared, angry, stupid humans." Yana rolled her eyes. "Do I use my powers to fight back? No, I do not, because it upsets my brother. But they try to kill me with them anyway, shooting first and without thought, because I was born with power I did not choose, not because of my actions."

"They murder children with them, both ours and theirs. They react out of fear, every damn time. So no, I won't help them make guns. I won't rat them out or sabotage them, but the odds of these humans acting any differently than the ones that built giant robots to hunt my people is slim-to-none."

"Until they prove themselves able conquer their fear, until they prove they can create a plan for change and stick with it and not let the violence spiral, I won't lift a finger to help."
