I don't do that and you know it!

And I mean it's more dealing with people and feelings and that kind of stuff. So totally different.

Okay then, gimme a random not cherry picked sentence from your research that doesn't contain a ten dollar word.

I'm just telling you, I can at least try to read your research, I'm not dumb.

What do you even consider a ten dollar word?

I know you're not.

electroweak symmetry breaking. Technically more a twenty dollar phrase, but, my point still stands.

Do you want me to not read your notes? Cause that's fine too.

None of those are twenty dollar words!

And I don't exactly have all my notes here, just what's in my goggles and what I left for you all in Junior's mask.

[Yeah, Casey had his goggles and gave them back.]

They absolutely are and you know they are!

Alright, alright. Fiiiine. I guess I'll just wing it like I planned.

Oh my gosh. You're not dashing the dumdum accusations right now.

I never said you can't read them, just I'm not sure what I have on hand.

You'd think I was dumdum regardless of what I do.

Okay, okay, fair. I just, want to be included I guess.

I do not.

And you can be, I just need to see what I have before I can give you anything. I have... Had, a lot of ninpo research, some of it probably won't apply here. I'm sure you'd rather read what could be useful to you and not a bunch of stuff that isn't.

[He almost called it "fluff" but then the idea of calling any of his work that made him angry.]

I'm dumdum on special occasions then?

Yeah, I guess that makes sense. I don't mind learning, but if you don't think its all necessary for me to read, I can't fault you on that. You did dig deeply into ninpo enough to become resident expert.

No.

... and I'm only the resident expert cause Mikey isn't here.

[Oof, the mood drop that inspired.]
Yeah.

Maybe one day, we'll have our badass mystic warrior back. He missed you.

[Sorry, Leo.]

Yeah... Hopefully that'll be sooner rather than later. And of course he did, who else was he going to practice his old wise turtle act on?

Maybe I will do what Casey suggested and try to get Mikey's old notebook. Might be nice to see it again. He drew a lot of portraits of you after.

He got it down pat, but didn't have anyone to drive crazy with cryptic sayings.

[Ah, he has to stop himself from asking "why" about Mikey drawing him.

Mikey is just, weird like that.]

Good to hear, that at least that was covered before I was gone.
