Usually I'm not, but it can't be helped when you start it. You didn't have to approach me like that. You could have simply pointed me in the right direction. Instead you assumed that I would treat something that I have worked hard to hatch already and that is a living thing poorly, based on appearance alone.

How can I not take a little offense to that?

[Touché. France is quiet for a long moment, a muscle working in his jaw. He hates being called out, even when he is in the wrong. But he is a gentleman and knows when he has to concede.]

I apologize for my haste in judgement. I suppose I'm a bit sensitive when it comes to Feebases and Milotics. I have one of my own, and she's rather delicate.

Apology accepted.

I even named her after one of my best friends, you know.
