He furrowed his brow and bent his lips downward. “I’ve bitched about it often enough.”
Jessie shrugged. “Doesn’t mean I was listening.”
I think you should be.
“As appealing as it may be, at times, “ he mumbled “, I have enough going against me.”
“Oh really? Like what?”

“Uhhh,” he winced “, It’s not that I was on your side, I just used to find some of your events entertaining…” Mostly versus Ash, since it did make that boy train a little and actually focus on strategy.
Jessie gave a small chuckle. “Oh come on, Gary. I know you’ve probably thought of joining us before, so why not give it a try?” She smiled and pulled out a business card from her skirt’s pocket, holding her arm out straight and handing him it.
“I guess that’s a good thing,” he shrugged “, I wouldn’t put myself through half the crap you’re made to do if I didn’t get much out of it.”
Jessie couldn’t help but let a slight smirk curl on her lips. “Why don’t you join us, Oak? I know you’ve always been on our side.”
