Most of this town should be impossible, so forgive me if I choose to ignore what is assumed to be possible or not. Forgive me for trying to maintain some shred of belief that the people in this town have more in them than… selfish goals and motives, because if they aren’t capable of more than that then it really isn’t a town worth living in. Is it?”

He stood there, nails digging hard into his palms for a moment after the tirade.

“Was there anything else you wanted to try and critique?”

“No… No I think I’ve quite lost my appetite.” He said and folded his arms over his chest, not an angry pose, but folding slightly over them.

“I guess I’m just too selfish to go to pizza with you right now.”

His mouth was dry as he spoke, and he was trembling badly. He’d never had this kind of a bicker with Jerimiah, and it felt just… odd all over.
“Wouldn’t want to deprive you of your… self righteous bent anyhow, might hurt your effectiveness with getting… seizures.”

He turned and made a fairly determined exit, having no intent to turn back even if anything more was said. He didn’t think he could take more honestly.
