Me: Alrighty. Zac— this question is for you; "What do you have against Akira?"
Zac: …
Honcho: do tell
Zac: I-
Zac: Okay, here's the thing— Akira… kind of— well,,,,, he just sucks, to be completely honest with you.
Me: uh huh.
Zac: …fine. Okay, imagine you're a successful pop star and Blader. Everyone adores you. Your songs are unmistakably popular, and you're one of the top bladers in Japan. And thennnnn,,,,, this newbie shows up in the nationals, *getting increasingly frustrated* and you find out that he's stealing your thunder not only in MUSIC, but also BEYBLADE! Won't you feel—?!
Hyde: Shattered? Outdone? Disregarded? Unimportant?
Zac: …
Zac: *looks at Hyde, surprised* Actually, you're spot on…
Hyde: Need I remind you that I'm lucky enough to have Phi as an older brother?
Phi: I-
Hyde: *leans back and sighs* I know exactly how you feel~
Zac: …*to me* And that's why I hate Akira. Satisfied?
Me: Yyyyup.
