'''Red:''' Same reason my old man was hard on me: to prepare me for the world. You know, Kitty, when I was his age... I could have parachuted onto a deserted island... with nothing but a Swiss army knife, and I would've survived.\\

->''To let things slide for the sake of peace and friendship when a person has clearly gone wrong, and refrain from principled argument because he is an old acquaintance, a fellow townsman, a schoolmate, a close friend, a loved one, an old colleague or old subordinate. Or to touch on the matter lightly instead of going into it thoroughly, so as to keep on good terms. The result is that both the organization and the individual are harmed.

There wasn’t a thought to his morale, to the fact that she was systematically, methodically destroying the confidence he was building up.]] No. Not heartless, not wholly inconsiderate. She tore him down because she trusted him to pull himself back together, to rebuild that lost confidence and redouble his efforts. Nevertheless, this was one of those moments where he found himself hating her a little. His fondness for her shrunk a fraction. He felt, even though he’d asked for this, the slightest sense of betrayal. Nothing Tecton had said was new. He knew this stuff. Knew that walking down this road and continuing this training was going to hurt things between himself and [[HeelFaceTurn Weaver]] in the long run. Somewhere along the line, their friendship would suffer. They’d dial up the seriousness of what they were doing, focus more on business than friendship. He knew.'' She ''knew.''
