He listened to her with a slight expression of confusion, before quietly asking Avi what his last line had been to Sabrael, and nodded once Avi told him, with a slightly exasperated but loving smile on her face. "Sorry. I tend to forget what I just said when trying to get back to reality after a very good game. Besides, once you get to know me, you realize that there is a pattern there, though it is heavily influenced by the fact that I was once mortal, and still have most of those tendencies. If didn't regularly cheat when not in a game, I would be completely hopeless to do anything. Other than being hopeless, I mean."<br/><br/>He grinned, before returning to resting his head against Avi's shoulder. "And I was NOT challenging people, I was passing time. This place was known for being a spot where people could play Mortality, and I wanted to compare myself to those when I wasn't using my advanced abilities. Even you got me without using most of them, the only one I did use was slightly speeding up my thought process, especially toward the end of the game."
