[Don't think you're the only one who's ever had those kind of thoughts
It's that moment where Kotetsu realizes he should have gotten up and excused himself much earlier, because he can feel the indignance bubbling up, and he knows he's about five seconds from saying something he'll really regret. He's dead silent for several, not looking at his friend, but there's a slight shake to Kotetsu's frame, as if part of him is trying to refrain from saying what's on his mind, because Nick's just trying to help. He cares, Kotetsu knows he cares, but it's as Nick said--the logical part of his brain is off in timeout somewhere.]
...That's easy for you to say.
You're actually qualified to be doing this shit for a living. Not some desperate screwup like I was.
[He should leave he should leave he needs to leave, some part of him recognizes that, the cup being set aside as he gets up. He has to leave before he says something actually hurtful and can't take it back.]
