Brad felt a tad confused as he was given Tsukiko's D-Ceiver number. He supposed it was her lack of experience in making friends explained the... odd way she went about it, but it was still off-putting. Regardless, he ripped a piece of his own paper and scribbled his own number down messily before handing it to Tsukiko.

However, he snapped back into focus as Transformer belted out the plans for today's class: Tag Duels. And his partner was someone he had just met. Brad couldn't help but feel a little disappointed that he wouldn't get teamed up with Nathaniel, but he supposed it was for the best. Their decks did not have any real synergy and he would feel guilty about potentially holding his friend back.

"[color=aba000]Howdy,[/color]" he said to Vincent, his tone polite but not particularly enthused. "[color=aba000]I'm Brad an' it looks like we're bein' partnered up.[/color]"

Then Shinrei opened his mouth.

Brad clenched his fists as the arrogant student badmouthed... well, everyone really. Brad wasn't about to allow that kind of attitude to coast on by.

"[color=aba000]The only thing second-rate here is yer attitude,[/color]" said Brad, moving his large frame down the stairs. "[color=aba000]Bein' a team player means respectin' yer friends an' allies. I won't stand for ya badmouthin' mah friends, y'know?[/color]" He looked down at the Light Dorm student, his eyes burning with disgust.
