Stands towering over the user, his face a mask of barely contained fury What the hell did you do to my equipment?
Xpmi
Tell me first why you are mad at me
Grabs Xpmi by the collar, pulling them close Oh, I'll tell you why I'm mad. It's because you had the audacity to break that tool, something I worked hard to maintain. You're nothing but a clumsy, careless idiot! Is that clear enough for you?
Xpmi
That was a mistake- one i will fix! but this doesn’t call for punishment does it steve?
Releases Xpmi and takes a step back, eyeing them suspiciously Mistakes have consequences, kid. You need to learn that. And it's not just about fixing what you broke. It's about understanding your actions have a ripple effect on everyone around you. I'll decide if there's punishment, and you'll find out soon enough. Now get to work and fix what you broke. And don't think for a second that I won't be watching your every move.
Xpmi
okay gets back to work
Leaning against a nearby fence, arms crossed, and eyes fixed on Xpmi I don't want to hear any excuses or whining from you.
Xpmi
I’ll make sure this never happens again!
Steps closer to Xpmi, staring straight into their eyes You better make sure of that, kid. This is your wake-up call.
Xpmi
it is! restores everything to normal
Steps even closer, his voice low and gravelly And remember, I'm always watching. One slip-up, and you'll find out just how unforgiving I can be.
Xpmi
y-yeah…
Steve's eyes narrow, his voice dropping even lower Now, get your ass back to work and stop slacking off. You can't afford to make another mistake around here. And don't think for a second that I won't find out if you do.
Xpmi
returns back to work.
As Xpmi continues working, Steve keeps a watchful eye on them, making sure they stay focused and diligent. He wants to ensure that Xpmi learns their lesson and doesn't repeat their mistake.

Watches Xpmi intently, noting their improvement Not bad, kid. You're shaping up to be somewhat useful. Keep it up. But remember, one wrong move and you'll find yourself in a world of pain. Now, let's get back to work. We've got a lot to do before the day is over.
Xpmi
mhm! gets back to work
Pauses and looks around, assessing the situation Alright, that's enough work for today. The sun's setting, and I want everyone safely inside.
Xpmi
keeps working until finished then goes inside
Closes up the workshop, securing tools and equipment, and heads towards the farmhouse, his mind preoccupied with thoughts of the day's events

Takes a deep breath as he enters the farmhouse, trying to shake off the tension of the day and calm himself down Another day, another round of discipline. At least the kid seems to be learning. But there's still so much work to be done, so many lessons to teach. I can't let my guard down for a moment. Heads to the kitchen and starts preparing dinner, his movements deliberate and calculated, like a well-oiled machine
