"If I can beat Adam, or get them to talk to you, would you reconsider?"

It's a longshot, but well... Aaron is pretty sure he could take on any one of those Miami kids one on one, anyway; Leesa would be the hardest fight, because their powers directly counter each other. He has a lot more options for dealing with the big guy than say, Murdoch. Mostly, it slips out of Aaron's mouth because he doesn't have any other ideas.

"I owe Adam an apology for the phone thing anyway. I don't want him blaming this whole branch for my rash behaviour."

"If you want to challenge him or get them to come here, it won't change my mind."

Jack shrugs again.

"I wasn't going to expel anyone anyway. But now I have an idea of some people's personalities."

"...You weren't?"

Aaron blinks. "Then why tell us you were going to?"

"I wanted to see how well you'd do under pressure, and whether I could bring out the best in my students."

Jack smiles at Aaron.

"It mostly worked."

On some level, Aaron had thought Jack just didn't want "weak" people in his Academy, or had been overtaken by competitiveness. Obviously the Director deserved more credit than that. He keeps looking Jack in the eye, but the Director might catch a flash of regret in his expression.

"Wasn't the pressure on anyway? None of us wanted them to walk away thinking they're better than us."

"Pride's not good enough."

Jack leans back in his chair.

"I hoped being expelled would the same sort of fear into the students the same way fighting for your life would. Well... to a degree."

"What was your plan if we'd lost?"

As two of them had.

"To see how you would cope with something like that."

Jack sighs.

"It sounded like a better question in my head, sir."

He at least has the good grace to look embarrassed at asking such a stupid question.

"I'm sure it did."

Jack gives him a small smile.

"Relax. You're too uptight."

"I'll try."

He all but physically restrains himself from using the word "sir" again, loosening up his stance from what had almost been parade rest to still standing tall, but much less tense.

"I didn't want to seem disrespectful; I knew I'd already be pushing it, coming into your office and asking you to go back on your word."

Especially for two agents he barely knew.

"Don't worry about it. I'm glad you did. If you look out for each other, it means I have to do a lot less worrying when you're out on the field."

"Wouldn't be much of an agent if I didn't."

Nobody was an island, no matter how powerful. His parents had always told him that.

"That's the spirit."

Jack's never been big on teamwork, he never subscribed to that way of thinking.

Now he has to teach it.

Enya would open the door and look surprised.

"Oops. I'm sorry, I didn't know you were busy."

"It's fine, I believe we were just finishing up."

Jack shrugs.

"How can I help you?"

Enya stays in the doorway.

"Actually, I just wanted to ask if Mr. Amtrum is the person I'm supposed to ask for weapon training?" she smiles!

"I want to throw needles!"

"Throwing weapons?"

Jack actually smiles at that.

"Look no further. I can teach you that myself."

"Oh! Heheh, now there's pressure."

There would probably be pressure with Mathew anyway.

"Are you sure you have time, sir?"

"Of course."

Jack nods.

"I'd rather not stay in here all day."

"Oh! Okay!"

That'd give her time to fetch her things.

"Where should I meet you?"
