Antony
Mark and Antony locked horns yesterday ending their brief bromance when Antony snapped at Mark over him not pulling his weight on filling the water bag. Mark defended himself quickly:
“My job is the fire and the water, when I feel the fire needs water and it has completely gone out that's when you can say something to me …I’m not having a go, I am just saying from now on …let me just try to maintain it, if the fire is out when you go to cook you can have a go & there is a right to moan, but I will promise you that, that will be kept and the water will be kept to exactly the level it needs to be” said Mark.
Antony snapped back, “Yeah but that's not the spirit of it Mark”. “What's the spirit then?” asked Mark
“The spirit of it is we are all putting in. You don't want to come across as someone losing the spirit of it” said Antony.
I’ve been feeling a bit down today I want to be honest with you and I don't want to hold it in, but a couple of people have said to me I can't remember their names but a couple of people said to me that 'Mark... Antony always snaps at you
Mark further argued: “I am not losing the spirit…what I am trying to say to you is I will promise you the water and fire will always be maintained, if i am slack to do that then I’d like to be told... but until then just try and let me do it yeah. I am not having a go at you I am not having a go at anybody”.
Antony then claimed: “Yesterday we did need water and you argued that we didn’t”. He continued “Mark when I first said it yesterday that was completely empty”.
“There was enough in there for people to have drinks that’s what I said, if it has run out of water then definitely tell me” said an increasingly frustrated Mark.
“The difference is when you do me a bit of rice, I will never say I will do it when i think it’s appropriate ***you want rice I will do your rice. I guarantee you will want food before water again and that is the spirit of it i have never said no” said Antony.
Antony then walked off mumbling to himself – “Mark will learn his own way and that’s the best way”.
Later on that evening Mark talked to Dougie about his waterbag incident and argument with Antony. “I am a little bit stressed tonight yeah fucked off with Antony really” said Mark
Dougie asked what about “I got so close to him… and I am so close to him, he is like my big brother but he shouts at me. I feel like I can't do anything right around him just a bit scared now” said Mark. “Really not that long to go now” said Dougie
“He hasn't snapped at you, but you've seen him snap at people. Why do you think he snaps at people?” asked Mark “Maybe because he thinks he can or because it never escalates into something serious” said Dougie
Antony interrupts them and they stop talking about him.
And the rows continue - Mark later found Antony and told him how he felt about Antony being snappy and how others have been telling him.
“I’ve been feeling a bit down today I want to be honest with you and I don't want to hold it in, but a couple of people have said to me I can't remember their names but a couple of people said to me that 'Mark... Antony always snaps at you - but I try and say that’s because - I want you to reassure me we're close - you're not malicious...or doing it in a horrible way do you know what I am trying to say” said mark.
Mark continued: “Do you know what I mean snap...just like a brotherly snap, and you're close to me and you feel you can do that then I am fine with that do you know what I mean”. Antony questioned: “What other reason could it be….who said that, Jess you mean?”
“I don’t do that just heard it in conversation…I told them…he's like my big brother he snaps at me a little bit” said Mark. “It’s just been playing on my mind a little bit, and I wanted you to hear it because we're close”.
“What a big fuss and nonsense over nothing” said Antony. “I don't want a fuss, I like you and you know that don't you. We've got a good relationship, I didn't wanna hold it in i do listen to you and, i look up to you a lot, you're such an intelligent guy” replied Mark. “My god if people think that is snapping geez” said Antony. Mark confirmed: “You were sometimes”.
“That’s not snapping, it was a very mild reactive conversation that is not snapping....think of past years the blazing rows that people have had in here...” said Antony.
Antony continued, “The reason people say things like that to you, is because your susceptible and more vulnerable to that kind of conversation”.
