[Armand is willing to helpfully show why that is the wrong choice for someone to make. But he knows Gojyo, and his... forgiving nature carries a few downsides.]
I suspect he might start something.
[Even if that requires a little provocation on Armand's side, it doesn't count as him starting anything.]
I engage him in conversation, while texting you the where and when. You can come in and try to hit him. Either he'll respond and I have a reason to act, or you can take whatever humor you can from him being 'socked by a kid'.
You promised not to start anything with his friend, yes?
There's no reason to say that's what you were doing. You contacted me to discuss it, and I suggested you could see it if you wished. Or perhaps you came to say that I shouldn't after all even if it's tempting, if you think you could pull that off. He said something to start it, and you got caught up in it.
Defending yourself seems acceptable under those terms. He cares about Gojyo too. People can be forgiving when only working off suspicions.
[It doesn't count as starting something if you can make a convincing argument that you didn't.]

If he knocked you across a room, there's a chance Gojyo would be more sensible about his 'friend'.
