[Now that, stops Jonesy short. Because it's confusing and yes he was hurt and angry because he COULD fight. He could HELP but she wouldn't let him and that makes him angry. But the woman says something else and he has to reply to that first.]
I don't hate her.
[He really doesn't.]
But......
[He trails off and for a moment you can tell he's trying to do what she said to.]
If she was my friend she'd have let me protect her.....wouldn't she?
[Confused now. He really doesn't get the trauma thing, but at least it doesn't come out of a place of malice. In his mind you're brave a certain way. And that's it. By attacking, by fighting. By being strong. Most of Newt's pokemon realize that's wrong. But he doesn't get it yet.]
