Cayde listens. The kid's giving him an answer, so it'd be rude not to. His metal features somehow convey a crooked smile.
"Well, I'm pretty sure that not everyone thinks he's great. Times, he can be a pain in the ass," he says with a brief laugh. "He's stubborn, he can be pretty blunt sometimes, or just plain confusing the next. Can't get what he wants to say out, and then when he does he expects you to understand what he meant without having actually said that part." The Exo shakes his head, chuckling.
"But he tries. And if there's one thing I know he is, it's that he's an overachiever who tries to bear the weight of the world on his stupid shoulders. You know he's tried to protect me from getting hurt? Me, when I'm the one made of metal and we're falling from several stories like he won't break a bone- he did by the way, idiot."
Cayde sighs, shrugging his shoulders. "He's a pain, but he always means well, and takes the responsibility four-fold when things don't pan out. I'll agree that I don't know how safe the university might be, but compared to most places around here, if Tony's put some time and effort into it, then it's gotta at least be something." He waves his hand.
"Anyway! I'm not trying to change your mind, you probably have your reasons for what you think. Everyone's got their reasons. Now, since we're together, any place you want to check out? I watch your back, you watch mine."
