It was Mom's suggestion to be more open. I'm trying it. Never said I thought it was a good idea.
Besides, I started with the offer before I gave you anything. Would you have really bothered to listen at all if I hadn't just given what I did? Or would you have made some sarcastic remark to imply what a stupid teenager you think I am? You don't have to answer that I already know.
To clarify, finally telling me what all of this was about (if this is even your final version of your reasons) wasn't the stupid part. The stupid part was being an asshole to everyone around you, challenging me to a fight, and then complaining about the results. But maybe that's just your nature.
I can't say for you, but I'm done. I've been ready to be done for a while now.
Complaining about results is both over-simplifying and hypocritical of you. The fighting and other parts, yeah, that's pretty much my nature.
Well, I won't say it's something I've seen much of, and I don't know what got you to start thinking otherwise half the time, but apparently some people think you're a hero. However little I think of people, I know the type. Probably better than you do. All I'm saying is, when you put your ego down for two seconds, I can kind of start to see what those people are talking about.
Let me know if you're feeling like you want more out of this deal.
[And with that, unless Stephen does have more to say, he'll not send another thing.]

The bargain's fine with me. I can work with that.
Did you want anything more or are we done here?
