[His tone remains light, however; if anything, this little display is amusing him.]
Bear in mind what I just finished saying to you, Archer - if I were choosing to end this partnership now, you would know it; I certainly wouldn't resort to anything so backhandedly passive-aggressive. I have my own reasons for not calling it off at this point; all I'm asking right now is that you stay out of my business when it comes to these Gyms, as I neither want nor require your advice, nor will you be getting advice from me. I'll gladly continue training with you, as long as it continues to be beneficial, but as information goes, you're on your own.
[Of course, this is because Kimblee doesn't intend to challenge the Gyms at all and likely won't have much information to give you, but...that's a bit of a detail that he doesn't intend to hand you just yet.]
Of course, if you disagree with these terms, we can stop now, before we begin wasting each other's time. It's your call.
