Someone who did what they wanted no matter what, huh? I can admire that. [ yes he hears all the terrible things, but as always, that's not really what he's interested in. ]

I'm sure the expressions he drew out of others was a sight to behold. [ he tilts his head, earring jingling. ]

So if you're his opposite, and he liked to go around scaring others, then that's why you like to go around endearing yourself to others, hmm? [ a half-question, because he continues. ]

Ahh, but time's like that. It's always moving in some direction.
