[ To his (extremely meager!) credit, Gen does opt to hold his tongue for the moment even after watching that embarrassing display of Johnny splatting on the ground off his horse. Less because he cares about hurting Johnny's feelings, and more because he feels that Johnny won't help him with his little campfire if he decides to get lippy, but hey -- no matter the motivation, the end result is the same, so it's fine, right? (No.)
Instead, he focuses on what Johnny says -- canting his head and arching an eyebrow high at that comment. ]
Aah? What did you actually expect to change?
[ His voice drips with incredulity, and Gen barely lets his words hang in the air for a moment before giving a low huff and turning aside. At least he makes himself (semi-)useful at the same time, turning to the dead pillbug and starting to make some effort at dismantling it. At least those little legs of it are relatively easy to start tugging off; too bad they don't seem to contain much meat(?). ]
S'been the same the whole time even before we ended up here. Two sides fighting in a whole bunch of stupid, complicated, different ways and having to deal with a bunch of bullshit along the way. What did you think would change at this point?
