#his fear and anger only grew larger by seeing how even vash gets treated like an outcast already

nai is so inherently stuck in the past, he is a scared, lonely child, that got told from the very beginning to hide his powers in front of humans, even before he knew about what happened to tesla - and how frightening it must have been for him to realise that his brother might have less of an issue getting accepted by humans eventually, whereas nai would end up as an outcast, alone and maybe even experimented on - it makes sense how he kept saying humans take away his brother, how he wanted to "repair" him to become a "perfect independent", how he tried to forcefully create more independents just like him--
because when he reached for that core, explaining to his brother that he just wanted to carve a place for them independents while burning alive in his desperation, he was speaking from the emotional state of a scarred child that felt left behind by the only person that could understand him.
