[As poised as a-? Vash's expression is completely clueless, but the further questions distract him from asking about that odd expression.]
See, I was wondering about that, too! But we'd better sit down first. It's not easy to explain.
[Vash jerks his head towards the seating area before leading the way there, finally able to set down all the food he's been carrying before he plops down in the chair across from Jingyi.]
Okay! To start with, the population of my planet never meant to end up on No Man's Land. We crashed in the wrong place, and so many ships were lost that terraforming was out of the question. But from out of the wreckage the survivors salvaged the Plants - a lost technology from Earth that can make practically any material you ask it to. Plants produce water, electricity, building materials, and even most of the food we eat. Any real city had at least one Plant, or else supporting that many people would've be impossible.
And they look like this! [From one of his food trays Vash snatches up a veggie bun, holding it by the tips of his outstretched fingers, trying to mimic the shape of a lightbulb.] But much bigger.
