"ME?!" Even his bells sounded angry as he jerked to a stop, whirling around toward Boober.
"Do you think I- wanted to have this little kid shoved into my arms and told to get him to safety??! Do you think I- wanted to leave behind Flock and Leko and everyone else I, we, ever cared about??"
Huffing now, he got right up in Boober's face, shoving him with his fingertips. "Do you- think -that I wanted to miss Gobo growing up! Teaching him all my best games and jokes! You don't know how I feel!"
A harder shove now, full-handed, and then he whipped around again, stalking across the tunnel. "I've got to go in there. You- you've gotta dreamshare with him and I've gotta get everything back under lock and key! If- if he ever figures out where he came from, that we haven't heard from the kingdom yet-" His voice had started to shake there but he pulled it back under steely control. "Well, he just can't. Nobody can.'
