Hyperon is reluctant to accept the apology at first and berates Fabman for being a walking, talking stereotype of gay men. Fabman, however retaliates by reading Hyperon the riot act and pointing out that without "stereotypical" queer people like him who are out, proud and not afraid to be themselves, the LGBTQ+ community as it is in present day wouldn't exist and that it's no one's business how a queer person chooses to express themselves. Hyperon afterwards admits that wasn't an okay thing to say.
