It wasn't pleasant to learn but it's given me all the more motivation to want to stay here. [Things are never going to get any better for him in his own galaxy, so Maul's life is now focused on being here in Trench, and making a new start for himself. He's much happier and more content here than he ever was at home, so he knows he's made the right decision, even if he's had to forgo things like the revenge he's wanted desperately for so long.

It's a little hard to read emotion on a face that burnt up but Maul can feel what's going on beneath the surface when Dabi speaks. Looks like he's run into someone else who has a complicated relationship with their family. But really what else is new? If Maul had a coin for every time he met someone with an actual stable family background, he'd have about three coins.]

Killing's never pointless. Revenge against those that kill people I care about is always worth it. [Maul's always felt that way. He's never going to be able to just roll over and take it lying down. Always, there will be that eternal rage and fury within him that demands vengeance.] Besides, coming back isn't always a guarantee, so don't count on it happening every time.

[With that swell of negative emotions that's still coming from Dabi and the way he doesn't elaborate on the answer, Maul can guess a bit at what lies behind the words.]

I sense that might be a bit of a complicated relationship.
