But he doesn't act conceited and prideful? He's flirty and playful. He wasn't insulting Ian, he was teasing him. Considering that it was immediately following<em>Ian himself</em>teasing somebody, it just comes across as hypocritical to take issue with<em>him</em>being teased. Honestly, from my perspective, it's Ian being prideful and conceited and not Arty xD I mean. Arty is playing around and trying to "get in on the joke," as it were, and I think saying that he talks himself up or tries to put others down is being massively unfair in regards to what was actually said, especially considering the context of how Ian himself was talking and acting. You'd have to basically be TRYING to take it in the worst possible way to interpret what was said in any way other than somebody trying to join in with the banter. xD<br/><br/>I just don't see what you mean by "conceited and prideful." Arty is a playful, flirtatious and surprisingly self-deprecating character. I mean, yeah, he has his bravado, but that's more played up for comedic effect (at least, that's what he aims for) than actual genuine self confidence.<br/><br/>I mean, if that's how<em>everyone</em>is interpreting it, then obviously I'm wrong. But at the moment, I just don't see how you could draw that conclusion from what he said and how he said it, especially given the context of the banter (especially from Ian) up until then.
