Because, believe it or not, I don't think you're a complete waste of parts! You had no problems talking to me before! Hell, you once gave me a pizza because you had a ton and I thanked you over it! So what? What happened? I made one stupid mistake that I've since recanted for that you can't let go?

I mean, dammit Riptide, I don't really care if people don't like me. And you know what? I used to never question it because I thought I just deserved it. But, and maybe you'll find this shocking, but people have actually filled this empty head of mine with thoughts that maybe I deserve a little better.

I'll come with you, but at least give me a reason for hating my guts. So far, the only thing you've got wrong about me is that you think I don't care about anyone else, but hey, lay it on me.

[He decides he's not going to wait for Riptide. He'll start making his way down to the station himself.]

If you're gonna supervise me, then move those crappy human legs of yours.
