I don't know, exactly. [ He hums thoughtfully.

Then: ]

He's a smartass.

[nonscriptum]

Oh.

[ Pleasant, soft, almost lilting in delivery. The dry exclamation of a man who has just stumbled upon a five dollar bill in the street and cannot believe his luck. ]

[nonscriptum]

So what you're saying is, I'm a smartass.

[ Birds of a feather. ]

[volitaunt]

[ Oh no that voice?? Is very rude. Poe's stomach turns over and he does his damnedest to ignore it. ]

You're one of those things anyway.

[nonscriptum]

[ "Rude" says the guy haphazardly calling people smartasses. Pot, meet kettle. ]

I'll pretend it's the first part.

[volitaunt]

[ Wow it's not haphazard. It's very thoughtful and carefully considered.

His voice is still rude. ]

You can pretend, but we both know the truth.
