"No need for hostility, Ian. He's only doing what he sees fit to do."

19502
Maybe instead of leader, she could be the official mediator? Would she be opposed to that?
She's said she'd be happy to do that multiple times and people (read: Alan) keep forcing the issue.

19503
"And that's all you're going to say?!
You didn't convince him you had it therefore you failed?
No.
He said you had the potential to lead.
He has said that to no-one else.
You just refused to go through with it.  I mean, REFUSED.  Stop hobbling yourself."

"He only FOUGHT one other person, and I refused because I saw no sense in fighting to prove a quality that one can't prove by beating someone unconscious."

Actually, come to think of it, what leader-ly things has Mio done, besides mediating and trying to stop fights?
Absolutely balls nothing. Why do you think Mio keeps saying that's a bad idea? >_>

Did I mention in "For the republic" that he cannot do escape rolls, and takes a penalty to them after it wears off?
Yeah. he's not going to get dragged off the field if it comes to that.
He can't do them. Someone else dragging him off can.

19505
Emphasis on try. Mio or someone else would probably try to drag him out.

19506
That......could be quite bad, actually. A good leader knows to fall back when the enemy is beating you. By that logic, ENG would be throwing people at the enemy until the enemy dies or they do, which.....is not good for preserving team morale or lifespans.

Also, all for council, which Mio still won't be a part of. :P

"If I did not convince him, then I had to have failed somewhere."
Mio shrugs and continues watching the fight.

19508
"As I said. One cannot win all fights, Alan, and sometimes one needs to fall back and consider their failures.

You have nothing to prove, and neither do I."

19509
Except that's exactly the wrong type of person.  Tinkmaster is a recluse pretty much, Big Daddy is...Well, himself...
This, basically. I mean, Mio's shit for leading, but Tink and Big Daddy are even worse ideas, although Tink might be decent.

"You have more to prove to me than I to anyone else, anyway."

19512
And the one person more than one person anyone can agree on to lead, doesn't want that burden.

Great job, lads.

"By the rules of his combat? I was. I'm not going to attack him out of nowhere unless it is necessary."

19514
"And what would I have to prove? That I am stronger than he is? That I am unable to give up when I know I am beaten?"

19515
"I've likely dishonored myself in his eyes. He wouldn't want to fight me again, it wouldn't be honorable in his eyes."
