How much do you know of Japan's days when he only let Holland visit? Before America wanted to go find whales.
Before my Pops I was like that. Perhaps... a lot more so. I distrusted all humans, and the world considered me a monster. In those days I thought I was just a bird. The way I am now is because my Pops showed me a better way to live. Don't misunderstand, I'm still the same person who thought being a phoenix meant never bothering with humans, but Thatch gave me reasons to do better than that. Having friends doesn't make them my nakama. My nakama are like your people are for you. It's not a perfect match, but it's a lot more similar than you think.
