I really have to wonder at how quickly we're destroying this place.

[ Archer announces himself over the amber with that casual and dire remark. His tone is bored. ]

First of all, we've upset the balance of nature by killing a predator and allowing defenseless prey animals to multiply unchecked. Those rabbits will probably suffer once they meet the cruel reality of life beyond this tree, you know.

And now we've nearly destroyed the tree itself with our meddling. Isn't that impressive?

[ Now his voice is just dripping sarcasm. ]

Well done, everyone. Whoever brought us all here should really have expected these results. It's exactly what human beings do, after all.

Hm. Where are these rabbits you speak about, Archer?

[ She has not noticed those yet, Archer. But she does not have the keen gaze of a bowman.

She feels guilty she could not do much when the tree started to shake, she could not reach those with their fragments on the gems in time. ]

[gandere]

There's no need to be a jerk about these things, Archer. [ Look at her trying to be nice and defensive of all the people here. ]

Human beings can't help what they are after all.

[he could fight him over that snake, or he can steel it all away (it's easier now after everything he's been through) and talk about what happened with the tree instead]

You kept Tohsaka safe when all that happened, right? [like he needed to ask about Archer himself]

[Well. At least with Cynthia, Arno can get how it would bother her because it was a life taken away.

He was extremely annoyed and he could be an impulsive twit but he decided this man didn't deserve that.]

Just concerned about my comrades, mon ami. I'd like to say the balance of nature isn't destroyed by protecting people I care about.

[bestworstdad]

You're pretty insufferable, aren't you? If you can't put more faith in nature, I'm afraid you've got no business telling people off!

[stormcalling]

[She thought she was snarky, way to go Archer. She's almost taken back by it.]

The cycle of nature itself is often thrown off temporarily on its own. Although these present actions admittedly aren't going to help it from getting worse.

I did not realize that one litter of rabbits constituted a population explosion, but I'm not an expert in ecological control. Should I have lead Mr. Viper to the burrow instead?

[There's not a trace of sarcasm in her voice--she is all polite inquiry--but she's definitely not in agreement with you here.]

[isolophobia]

And you are an even greater fool if you believe there is not strong sentiment over this among mortals both ways.

[cocooned]

[ This guy again... he's always so cheerful. ]

What else are we supposed to do? I mean... it's not wrong to try and solve the riddle, or hunting for food.

[Amber] Sorry for lateness. X3

[alley_kit]

Well, I didn't hear you coming up with any better ideas, Mr. Smarty Pants.

[Also not everyone in the tree is human, just so he knows. As evidenced by kit's fluffy tail being visible in the image.]
