[He listens, the point of his attention driving spike narrow. Once he's finished, there is torturous pause in which Flint measures him for a moment more before--]
I'm going to say this once, so I advise you listen.
[He takes a step closer.]
I don't doubt that you want Corypheus to fail. And I know that as long as you have someone like the Scoutmaster or Rutyer standing within arm's reach, that you're perfectly capable of making the decision we'd prefer you to. But it's clear to me that when left to your own devices, you'd rather roll over than risk making any decision where you might own the consequences. That's why you're dangerous. That's why we don't trust you out of our sight.
If you can't even tell another member of Riftwatch that you'd rather she not run you through a gauntlet, then why the fuck should you ever be relied upon for anything more than fetching and carrying? You're not a child. Stop acting like one. Take some responsibility for yourself.
