Hamato is a fucking terrible judge of character, an idiot, and way too nice for his own good. They both are.
[He should not be dragging the only two people he talks to on a regular basis, but he also can't be letting anyone think he's anything close to a good person.]
The tradeoff can't be worth it. The Society is garbage.
He called you to help save his brother and you came. He's at least that good. And they're both your friends.
[Sorry, kid, that seal of approval means something. He still refuses to believe Accelerator is that much of a villain. (His basis of comparison is also very, very different from the turtles'.)]
[You slept on his floor after a nightmare gauntlet of a heist because Leo and Donnie brought you to their apartment where it was safe. You're friends with them whether you like it or not, kid.]
Still an easy choice to make with Fantastic in the picture.
[They insisted and he was too tired to argue!! God, he's probably going to regret that for the rest of his life.]
Chances are there are villain members who are a hundred times worse than that prick, they just haven't had the chance to make themselves as known as him.
[After all, Chaos Gate had told him this isn't actually any of Fantastic's MO.]

'Went after' as in 'argued with him in public' after his stupid 'everyone's a soldier' speech. He doesn't know anything about military organization, and he didn't like me pointing that out.
If he was going to talk like a commanding officer, I wanted to make sure he could actually act like one. Turns out he can't, so it came with the added bonus of pissing him off in public.
Yeah, no. He's just some celebrity influencer. The prick couldn't command his way out of a paper bag. Any military speak isn't actually coming from him, it's from the cult propping him up.

Worse than Fantastic and his guards?

[He will absolutely not admit they are friends. That is never happening.
No, but they're still shit.

...I went after Fantastic while I was still in the Alliance, actually. That's probably why he set his guards on me earlier.

So you yelled at him? What the hell were you hoping to accomplish?
