The reason we use that term is because we used it before we got together. I told you how we met in Domino City. We decided to team up together. I agreed to help you kill your enemy, and in exchange, you'd give me that - [He points at the Rod.] - once it was all done.
Once we ended up here and we found out it was practically impossible to leave, you decided to renew our agreement, so we would end up looking out for one another. Heheh... You didn't have anyone else to rely on, and I was at least familiar.
So we kept using the term. After all, we weren't friends. Our relationship was strictly business. And once it began changing, we kept the term going because it sounds less... personal.
