You know, some people would say I experienced a swift, potentially oversized punishment for a bit of fussiness when it comes to the death of a... person I admired.
UHHHH! I had to go into the crystal battledome, didn't get a cool monster form, got cooked by a dragon for the second time in my life--very traumatic!--and he died anyway. It's almost as if the retribution happened within a twenty-four hour period. High, high efficiency.
You mean how I had to watch you do nothing the whole time but yell at someone who'd already lost their mind, clasp your hands together and wait for the end because you mistook stupidity for mercy?
[he really has no reason to be so mean]
New Hire did all the work. You missed your chance for retribution if you would've actually done anything to kill him.
Metis was there, too. They were healing Yuri, but I suppose you wouldn't notice if you were so busy judging my performance.

Ah, if only I'd had you around to tell me how badly I was handling the situation--but. Wow. Such a pity. You died our first week. We must carry on as if your opinion didn't matter at all.
Mediocrity--I don't know when I claimed to be anything but what I am. I'd like to see what you would have done. Crawl into his earhole and start stabbing? Punch at his belly and hope you found a soft scale? I tried to reach the only part of him I thought I had a chance at.

I know how to be straightforward without being a fool.

[ how sad!!!! ]
no subject
[very plainly. he doesn't take the bait or get offended because that's what happens when your heart is nonfunctional]
But you had asked why I was annoyed at you. I was answering part of the reason.
You may leave and drown your sorrows in more alcohol if you think that will ease your mediocrity.

I won't speak for him. Just know I disagree with the vast majority of your sentiments.
