I don't care. You were starting to move past this. Shiko didn't evolve through you relapsing into this behaviour, did he? You didn't gain Baku's trust by being a petulant brat!
[shaking his head:] No. I'm not taking your comm and cutting you off from other people. I just want to see you doing better than this, because you can. Everyone has to deal with losing. It's just-- part of being a trainer!
[That s a low blow and it shows. But instead of having him back down, all he does is dig his heels in deeper.
but at least Archie's not taking his comm or cutting him off from people. He's not sure how to feel about that, but. Whatever. He can think about it later.]
Shows what you know! I gained it by being myself, and they know what to expect anyway! We went through this with Lance back home, and no Champion's going to humiliate us like this! But whatever. We'll do the stupid team-building stuff even though we don't need it!
Yes, because the person you truly are isn't a petulant brat. That's my point.
[when will he get child security cheques again? oh, right, never, because he did this to himself for niko.]
Good. You may keep your laptop and television, but I want to see you workin' on this with them. You know to call me if anything happens and any of ya need healin'.

Late ;_;
[Sorry, his heels are in and they're just going to dig in. He can do this on his own. Because of course he can.
Like everything else he's clawed out, it was by himself.] Aww whatever. That all you want?
