Voicetesting | Simon Says...

... I refuse.

There are matters of far greater precedence that require my attention. I will not have you squander my time with such petty games. Furthermore, it has already become abundantly clear that your own schedule will not allow for tomfoolery either.

It is best to leave chained dogs lie.

[Mun wonders if perhaps Simon means "tethered birds", which instantly causes his face to turn from default frustration to Menacing Death Glare^(tm). He reaches down by his side as if he's about to draw a sword.]

SILENCE! Cease your outrageous jabbering! If I hear another quip about birds out of you, I will strike you down with my blade!

[Aww, don't be like that, Simon. It may be hard to swallow, but mun has a whole flock of bird jokes ready to take flight and each one is a hoot.]

......Tch.

What...?

[H-Hey--!]

You shouldn't try to get a rise out of people!

[jailbirdprosecutor]

[Jeb's anger only serves to make Simon laugh. Ah, that was far too easy.]

Pray tell, why not? I got what I wanted, did I not?

[sketchingideals]

You shouldn't want to get a rise out of people. Or tease them, for that matter.

[He crosses his arms, clearly very miffed by this. If he were anyone else, it would almost pass as intimidating. However, he's Jeb Parmalee, so he doesn't.]

[jailbirdprosecutor]

[Even if it were anyone else, Simon still wouldn't be intimidated. Seven years of being surrounded by murderers toughens a guy up. He's had worse threats thrown his way for breathing too loudly.]

Now, now. Who was teasing?

[sketchingideals]

Well, it's just... that laughter made it sound like...

[Now he just feels silly.]

[jailbirdprosecutor]

[......... Okay, maybe he was teasing a little. But mostly he was amused that Jeb got offended by his little trick.]

Commendable as it is that you would take this so seriously, there is such a thing as easing up. I was attempting to prove a point, nothing more.

[sketchingideals]

I-I'm sorry! You're right. [He rubs the back of his head, embarrassed and feeling even more silly than before.] I really should ease up, shouldn't I?
