[He's tired. It's audible. But he is still Max; so of course he'll argue. Everything's an argument. He'll do what he's told, but if it's words, it's the one area he can go indefnitely.]
Only reason I managed to cockblock Eiji's 'cause you figured I was a little less dead weight. Once you figured it was all impossible after all, screw the one thing I had up on him, actually trying to do more'n talk about a normal life for you. You wrote it off as an act you'd go ahead and suffer more to keep up, but it wasn't a real possibility for you no more. You had to go train under him more, get even stronger, fight even more 'n you did against Golzine.
But then somehow, he convinced you the level you were gonna try to be at was too much. The guy works better with you than me. That's all.
M'just lucky to still be in the picture. Same way even after I tried to put my foot down one time, m'supposed to just come home 'cause you bothered to bend your pride enough to come ask me to. And you're right.
[ Eiji'd do it for you without arguing, without having to 'get it'. Until you're willing to admit you want him too, I'll have to play his part. ]
