Oh don't be modest, my lady. You are clever- you, the good master Strider and ladies Lalonde and Maryam are some of the brightest young minds I've seen in a long time.
Alas, to underestimate the wills of the obstinate seemingly remains the Achilles Heel of the truly clever. [And the douche-bag begins to, believe it or not, pace. Round and round he goes, hands behind his back... for now.] Why would someone bother persevering in an argument when they don't have facts on their side, the clever say. Why would someone cling to pain instead of leaving it behind them? [Aaand a pregnant pause in the middle of the rant, coupled with an oh so smug glance- the kind that doesn't last long enough to be a creepy stare, but DEFINITELY long enough that you know it's supposed to be meaningful and shit.]
Why, oh why... would someone insist on drawing hundreds of sharp angles that come together to form a circle, instead of simply drawing a circle? [And stop, his arms finally getting to stretch themselves with all the flair they can muster as he slowly draws out a circle with his pointer fingers. Not exactly full on scene-stealing Vriska level of theatrics, but the tone certainly is a familiar one.]
