haha I apologize if this is highly OOC. I know in the book he pretty much hates everybody, but..I guess I'm going by two of his comments in the film. Anyway, this is pretty old and I figured I'd upload it since it's been sitting around my computer forever. It's also ridiculously short, I know! I'm horrendously lazy. I have a probably OOC old Crysta drabble sitting around to upload too that's a bit longer, but blah. If I can ever think of anything new to write for Ferngully, I'll try to make the oneshots a bit longer then.
The nature of his relationship with humans was complex. Hexxus hated and loved them simultaneously, the feelings he was more inclined toward requiring a careful amount of thought.
Humans thrived despite and resisted disaster. Humans were living, breathing beings- just as much a target of his disdain for all life as any other creature in this world. But, they were also capable of incredible feats of destruction. The smarter humans got, the more dangerous they became. The ways they contrived means of destroying themselves, others, and the planet were admirable. Their touch was nearly as devastating as his own.
Weapons of mass destruction, unleashing deliciously high amounts of lethal radiation. Machines, factories, and entire cities spewing noxious fumes into the air- some able to damage sweet mother nature herself!
Mmm, yes, humans were fun creatures. They weren't boring, not like the others. Some of them even seemed to thrive on destruction, much like himself. And, they were entirely indifferent to Ferngully's very existence. What would they care if it died? They would destroy it themselves, if the urge struck. Humans would rip out all those disgusting trees and flowers, destroy all those worthless little rodents, and leave cold, lifeless concrete, buildings, and best of all...machines.
Hexxus smiled.
Humans. Such despicable, conniving, vicious, greedy little things. Perhaps Hexxus did like humans more than he loathed them. He supposed they weren't so bad.
Besides, no creature's suffering proved quite as entertaining.
