After every interaction between Jean and Rhemann the only thing I could imagine was Rhemann pouring himself a drink and calling up Wymack like how tf do you deal with an entire team of this

"We've been working on getting Jean to move away from some of the nastier Raven moves."

"Sounds frustrating for everyone."

"That's an understatement."

"Kevin says he takes direction well. I'm sure he'll get there."

"So am I. I didn't think he'd replace years' worth of habits in a week. I wasn't surprised when he lost his temper this afternoon."

"Any casualties?"

"Dumped Knox on his ass. It would have been legal if Moreau wasn't no-touch for another week. Just not the way we play here."

"Muscle memory's a bitch."

"Yeah."

...

"It's what happened next that bothered me."

"Hmm?"

"He handed me his racquet. Said it was for 'contrition.'"

"Hmm."

"David. He expected me to hit him with his own racquet."

"I wish I could tell you I'm surprised."

"I wish you could tell me where Moriyama got to. I'd like to have a little chat with him and the ERC ethics board."

"If I knew where he was hiding he wouldn't be fit to have that little chat."

...

"I did not like the look on his face. I'm not used to my kids being afraid of me."

"You never get used to it."

"How do you handle it?"

"That's Dobson's job, if they'll talk to her. All I can do is tell them what they can expect from me and do my damnedest not to make a liar of myself."

"Does that work?"

"Eventually. Usually. It takes time. For one of my kids, he called me to get him out of a situation a few months into his freshman year. Even then instinct had him flinching back if I got too close. He said his brain knew he could trust me, but his body wasn't convinced."

"Muscle memory."

"Sure is a bitch."
