Dandy's never been known for being friendly. At least not genuinely.
Rodger knows this, he remembers the smile the flower gives to everyone, the fake compliments, he wasn't stupid, he knew Dandy wasn't really fond of them, unless it was Astro, or Pebble.
Rodger doesn't like him that much, aside from the expected curiosity that comes from seeing the first ever created toon. The both of them hadn't even interacted much other than buying something from his shop, so they're nowhere near friends.
That's exactly why he wonders, seeing the confusion in Dandy's expression at the tapes he just willing gave away, where did this compassion come from.
Perhaps, he always had wanted to know him better.
