[There's a lot of potential if these two actually had a heart to heart, unfortunately that's not likely to happen soon enough, or at all. Both are too stubborn and try too hard to close themselves off. What could be, alas...
With his tackle being a success, the force in which they hit the ground doesn't do Guzma many favors either. His one solace is the fact that Nanu acts to cushion his own impact, and that he now has the upper hand. Or so he thinks. When Nanu's hand grabs at his arm and chin, he lets out a frustrated growl. His free hand grabs at the wrist of the hand on his chin, greatly not enjoying the proximity it has to his throat.
There's a notable pause when Nanu mentions Nihilego. It strikes him, but not only because of the hypothetical situation he offers the ex-gang leader, but because he knows anything about that at all. Of course, things were different between their perspectives, to Nanu Nihilego was the only threat that Guzma had faced, the only thing that affected him in such a way. It's far from the truth, it was not just that ultra beast, but another that played in his retreat and his dismissal of Team Skull.
Everyone should know about the Necrozma bit, but not everyone should know about Nihilego. It was only him and Lusamine in that Ultra Wormhole...]
What do you want me to say? Hm?!
[He asks that, but it's honestly just a stalling tactic. He's too angry to talk emotions, or so he's telling himself. He doesn't like talking this sort of crap normally, yet here he is, on top of Nanu, angry as can be, and the old man is trying to appeal to his softer side. To his heart.]
If you think I'd abandon 'em, you're trippin'! But I don't see what that's got to do with anythin' right now!
[At least for now, they seem to be at a physical impasse, and fortunately for Nanu, less so for Guzma, he hasn't noticed the position of the other man's knee. Little does he know he's at Nanu's mercy, when it seems by all accounts the opposite.]
