Phoenix would rather stay rooted in Baguio and work his ass off rather than exprience the buzzing life in the center city. He would rather buried himself with work in his kingdom rather than to go out and have some dirty fun like his lunatic friends. He would rather feel the cold damp weather than to feel the heat in the center city.

He hates traffic. He hates noisy street. He hates hot places. He fucking hates everything that has something to do with big buzzing city.

... Then everything changes... And those changes are not acceptable to him. Not in a lifetime.
