“ my apologies – it seems i have OVERESTIMATED your abilities. it would seem these days they give they title of ultimate to just any run-of-the-mill types who whine for it. “
a DIG at his whining nature – she is NOT a nice person and she knows it. she doesn’t even want what he has to offer, merely pushing him for the sake of PUSHING. it is cruel, but it is a way of knowing the true nature of people, and who she can use to benefit herself. a way to see if he will BEND even further beneath her will or if he will falter and wither like some dying flower.
hands have even come to clasp before her chest with those words – a sincerity touching them that is CONFLICTING with the content. another way to throw him off, a CALCULATED motion from a conniving mind.
“ to think i had THOUGHT i might find proper help – a gentleman to help a lady in her time of NEED. “
“W-wait wait! I can do it in way less time!” Even though he felt as if he was playing right into the gamblers hands, he couldn’t help but want to prove himself. “I was just saying that’s what other people would say! But obviously I’m the Ultimate Mechanic so I’m not like the rest!”
He was annoyed that she would doubt him and his abilities, but it partially makes sense when he thought about it. A real ultimate wouldn’t- well shouldn’t need that much time to do the thing they were practically born to do. Plus this would be his chance to show off his skills, not just to Celeste but to everyone! ....At least that’s what he’s going with so he doesn’t have to think about all the hours he ‘s going to have to put into this project.
“I’m a gentleman for sure, I can definitely have this whole thing done by today.” Internally he winced as soon as the words left his mouth. Why was he agreeing with this, why was he such a push over?
Was “proving” himself really going to be worth all this time and effort?
