[ ... okay, so maybe he was being kinda stupid back there. He did say all sorts of mean things to the elf, things he didn't mean. They just sorta came out of him cause he got mad. But the elf started it! He's the one who's mean, not Barry!
Doesn't change that Barry was mean back. If he hadn't started yelling at him, Taako wouldn't have pushed him like that...
The elf runs off, leaving Barry to sniffle and cry on the ground by himself. He honestly thinks Taako just abandoned him, ran off before any adults could come yell at them, before he hears his voice once again. Looking up, Barry sees him holding his glasses. That's where he went? To pick them up for him? The boy pushes himself up slowly, wiping at his red, raw face. He wants to tell on him. He really does. But he doesn't want to get in trouble... and thinking real hard on it, he doesn't want to get himself in trouble either. ]
O-Okay... I s-swear, I won't-- won't tell on you. C-Cross my heart.
