"I'm still pissed at you too." It comes out before Wash can stop it, and honestly? Maybe it's better out than in, especially since they're actually talking now instead of yelling. "I've had a long time to think about the project, about everything, and..." There's really no two ways about this, is there. "You were a complete asshole to me in the project. You just were. And I wanted to fit in - I wanted you to like me - so I just took it. And I thought that was going to be something I wasn't going to have to think about ever again, and then you showed up." Wash shakes his head. It sucks, talking about this, but now that he's started he's not sure he wants to stop. "And you pushed me so hard when you saw me, and after I woke up the next day, I thought there must have been a reason. You must have had something really important to tell me. And then I actually talked to you, and you had nothing. You never had anything important to say - you were just being you, doing what you wanted regardless of what I wanted, and I just...I got angry." Understatement, sure, but he's finally getting to his point. "I'm not going to put up with that anymore. I put up with it for too long as it was, and I'm done. That's why I got mad, and that's what needs to change if we're going to be able to work together."

That's it, then. That's the long and short of it. Now it's moment of truth time, and only now does Wash start wondering if he's said too much.

Well, it's too late for that now.
