[Megasoma looks right back, glaring into Dozer's eyes. Already he doesn't like the mammoth. He unfolds his arms once, and flexes one of them at the mammoth, a silent "bring it, I dare you" challenge. Twilight, however, reaches out a hand and rests it on his shoulder.]
Megasoma, no. We don't want to fight unless there's no other choice.
[The Heracross glances at her with an "are you serious?" look, but sighs and returns to his folded-arm stance.]
I won't try to hide while Megasoma's here. I can't fight you on my own, Dozer. No human possibly could. I have no problem admitting that. But I have complete confidence in Megasoma's ability to do so, and win. And he will willingly give me his strength, because we're partners. Friends.
[Megasoma nods sharply at that. Darn right!]
But I don't want this to have to come to that. I don't want to fight you if I can help it. I want us to be able to work together. And I want you to be able to work with AJ. Is that really so impossible?
