[Hyobu smirks at the communicator.]

It's a funny thing, isn't it? That so many of Shibusen's "guests". [He does not say 'us' because, hahaha, as if he's ever been interested in helping out.] Could fight for this war, even die for it and yet we're all still viewed as outsiders. [He doesn't even sound or look upset. Just faintly amused.] Sort of makes any sacrifices on our part seem meaningless, doesn't it?

How nostalgic. I suppose people really are the same no matter what world they're from.

[And then as if he just remembered.] Oh, I made an account so I could share my opionion on the newspaper's Twitter. I tweeted, 'Shibusen sucks'. I'm not sure if I'll ever use it for anything, but if you have an account and you want to follow me, my username is 'keroro'.

[Yeah. He totally used someone else's name to badmouth Shibusen online. (He is totally seven, okay.) Then his lackadaisical manner drops for the first time and he actually looked, dare I say, troubled for a moment.]

And I found a rabbit in Katsuragi Yako's place. I think it might be some kind of emergency ration for her dog, but he's not eating it so I'm not sure. [What was he doing at Yako's place you may ask. Who even knows with this guy. (It's totally not because he was there to take in her dog. Perish the thought.] I mean, I even tied trussed it up and put it in his bowl and everything, but it's like he's not even interested. You don't think he's waiting for me to cook it, do you? I mean, I understand if rabbit stew is a thing he's used to being fed, but there's only so much effort I'm willing to go through for a dog.

Not for trying to eat it, for torturing it.

How rude. You sound like you need lessons in better manners.

Why does everyone keep telling me I'm torturing it? It's just a bit of harmless fun.

[That he didn't even really do. But everyone's reactions have been so hilarious...]

And you look like you need a lesson in choosing better friends. And maybe a new stylist.

I doubt the rabbit agrees. It's animal cruelty.

[There's a warning tone in his voice, implying he'd better let the rabbit go. If D had his pets here, this young man would have been a strong candidate for some of his special punishment.]

And perhaps, you're the one who's unrefined! [All of his robes were custom made!]

Well if it disagreed then it should have said something.

[Hyoubu...rabbits don't talk.]

That's just your opinion. [Pause.] And I guess Momiji's as well from time to time.

I'm sure it did. You were just too foolish to understand it

[Rabbits talked to D back home...]

I don't know who this Momiji is but it seems I'm not alone in finding your behavior crude.

Then it should learn to speak English. Or Japanese.

[Well, a flying squirrel talked to him back home too. You don't see him trying to apply his unrealistic standards to this world.]

She's this gilr I raised. She things middle aged, fat and bald is cute so I'm not sure I'd trust her tastes.

Even without human speech, there are other ways for it to communicate. You should have seen it was frightened.

And I see no need for you to insult her.

[If they were back home at his shop, D might be tempted to sic T-Chan on him.]
