Lea gave an annoyed sigh, resisting the urge to facepalm, but only just. "You just need to do the good and noble thing and sacrifice your own well being for the sake of others because clearly we deserve to have nice things much more than you," he said. "And you gotta give me that look. And before you ask 'what look', that look, that look that asks me to be understanding while you keep grinding on and grinding yourself down, because clearly that's what you, as the noble and heroic person that you are has to do. Am I getting warm?"
"Well here's a news flash for you; no you freaking don't. What you need to do is learn to freaking take care of yourself and stop being noble and self-sacrificing to the point of stupidity. I swear, all my friends seem to be like this, but unlike some others, I don't feel bad about giving you a metaphorical kick in the butt. No one needs you to martyr yourself by inches trying to live up to some arbitrary standard of Masterness. It's dumb, and I'm not gonna let you keep doing it because you're way too smart for that. Got it memorized, Aqua?"
