[color=fff79a]"I don't need anyone's thanks. I fought someone because they were matched up against me. Truth be told we're all strangers. Well mostly Miyuki over there is a former teammate of mine."[/color] Takahashi said dismissively as he looked at the big man on campus stroll in as if he was so much better than them. Meijin Kawaguchi. His type of people were what he aspired to be as a builder. But what he hated on a fundamental level as a gunpla pilot. They use their skills to give most of their machines incredible advantage on a level on novices could dream of. You could pilot the best machine, be the best pilot ever but if you could't get over something then that meant that you had a fundamental advantage just be existing. That shouldn't be how battles were won. [color=fff79a]"I'm not interested in becoming the pupil of anyone. I learned with my own skill, and fought with my family. My companions are those who I chose. I'm not after power, or to make a name for myself. All I want is to be the best I can be on my own merit. I appreciate that you can respect the work of everyone here. But the cold brutal truth is we still lost. I wasn't good enough, and I have a long way to go before I can measure up to king."[/color] Takahashi said half lying underneath his breath as he looked at Daigo with a lack of enthusiasm. [color=fff79a]"I'm assuming your here because you have some sort of sales pitch for us? My guess is you want the others, and myself to work with you some more to possibly find some more chinks in the King's proverbial armor? If so I'll hear you out but I'm honestly not interested. Today was a fluke Miyuki arguably is the only one who had any real impact on King."[/color] Takahashi stated flatly as he adjusted his OMNI cap on his head.
