Even so, do not expect me to depend on you for anything--I am more than capable of standing on my own.
[Still...his tone sounds a great deal less hostile than before.]
Sure, sure. I'm not the coddlin' type anyway. [He waves a hand dismissively. The less responsibility, the better.]
Although ta tell the truth, it does this old man's heart good ta see young knights gettin' on in the world. So maybe ya could call that my ulterior motive -- livin' vicariously through the youth of today!

Hmph. You are hardly so old as that--if you are so concerned with situations like that, you may as well do so on your own.

Wow, are ya that set on abandonin' me ta these robots? I already told ya, I really don't think gettin' by on my own is a good idea!
[Or a good idea for Leon, for all his bravado. Or a good idea for anyone, really.]
Just let me stick around. Pretty pleeease? [He'll even use his whiniest, most pathetic voice!]

[Stop talking.
(Cruel irony.)]
