He'd never actually liked or gotten along with the fellow, mainly due to their opposing views on government, even though they both fought for relatively the same goal. Freedom for Deviants. But where Bartholomew believed that strong central leadership was a good thing if the right people were in charge and behaved appropriately while in office, Damon believed the exact opposite. He believed government of any kind was bad thing, and while he didn't entirely agree with the man's views, Bartholomew could understand them. After all, government was the main reason Deviants were currently living in Compounds and being treated like animal's. Still...he couldn't help but see thing's differently. [color=silver]"That's a bit of an...exaggeration."[/color] Bartholomew remarked, somewhat tensely, as he pulled his hand away from Cameron's neck and shifted his gaze towards Damon. [color=silver]"But I do agree that you should hear all the options open to you before making a choice. Even if they all lead to the same end. However, I would stress that you accept my offer as it would be far more beneficial for you than anything Damon could offer you. Not only that, but I can disable the chip immediately, whereas you'd have to wait with him."[/color] He said, nodding at Damon.
