The creatures Wing's seen so far have tried to kill small, harmless organics, so in his mind, defending them is a good cause, and the bullies are the bad guys. It's a simple worldview, but sometimes people make things too hard with overthinking.

Wing shouldn't be distracted with watching Drift's movements: he's got a natural talent, Wing figures, an instinct and explosive control. It's just so...like him.

The monster isn't quite as appreciative, howling, weapon bursting just as Drift slices off the barrel, bursting a hot ball of plasma that blows up in the creature's face.
