-If the person is against treating him like a pet, even if they’re kind, he won’t take to it very well. He’s so set in the idea of his only worth being as someone’s pet that being treated otherwise would seem like he’s just being thrown away, of no use to anyone if his one purpose gets taken away from him.
An owner who is still that, just kinder than the usual sort would go over much better, although that still isn’t saying much. Subaru has been marked as useless for more of his life than not, he’s going to be stuck in the same concepts of worth and value no matter how kindly he’s treated. He’d be terrified, sure that this new, seemingly gentle owner is just faking, hiding something awful and cruel until they think he’s off guard. Nothing is going to change his thinking immediately, only that sort of kindness for years could begin to erase what a lifetime of training has made him believe.
