At this point Ollo was wary of Blizzard, primarily for personal reasons though. When the arcosian had offered to try and find his father, he was more cautious than excited. As much as he wanted help, this was someone he just met. Plus, after their current conversation, he wasn't particularly keen on having this man and his father meet, unsure of what he would even say. "I'm ok. This is something I should do on my own. I am his son, after all." Ollo said, trying to be as polite as possible. "Thank you Blizzard. You don't need to do something like that. You gotta more big things to do on Namek, right?" He said, giving him a shaky smile. Well, at least there was some truth in this. If anything, he wanted to be the one to bring his father home. After all, this was a journey that he took to accomplish that goal so it was better that he finished it alone rather than burdening others with the task.
The gift that he mentioned did intrigue the young boy at the very least, who was surprised. "Huh? You don't need to. I don't need anything in return." As if to emphasize his point, Ollo would shake both his head and all six of his arms. "You help strangers like you help yourself. No gifts needed." Was this really what life was like outside of this planet? It was hard to believe how strange the culture was, especially when the idea of gift giving was not done out of gratitude but rather obligation from his planet. If a namekian saw a brother needing something, he would give it to him without expecting nothing return. That was just all he was used to. So the idea of gift giving for something as simple like that completely perplexed him. He did seem rather insistent though...
