[The smile doesn't falter one bit, even as he's glared at. It does, however, seem to widen ever so slightly as Oggie approaches.]

If I'd wanted something, I'd have had it long ago. No. I am merely observing. Feel free to go about your business.

[syned_a_brik]

Really. Niz trick. Does hyu alvays already haf vot hyu vants?

Vhy is hyu "hobservink" me?

[divinating]

It is not a trick so much as it is a fortuitous sequence of events. That being said, one may always have what they need but feel as if their wants are eternally out of reach.

That does not happen to me, of course. I do possess what I want with little struggle.

Do you ever feel as if you learn from observing your surroundings? Of all the people in this book store, I found you particularly interesting. I was, however, wrong. You are a very obvious boy.

[syned_a_brik]

Is hyu tryink to say hyu iz lucky?

Hy tries to be, yah. So hyu iz gonna stop starink now?

[divinating]

Luck isn't the word I would use. It's more like a practised skill.

I might, but do you really want me to?

[syned_a_brik]

So ve come beck around to "niz trick". Hyu iz a seer, isn't hyu.

Um... [He makes a show of thinking it over.] ...Yah. Hyu iz very creepy.

[divinating]

I wouldn't refer to it as a trick. However, if the simpleness of the term comforts you, feel free to proceed.

I am. You are slightly more observant than I had assumed. It is a burden and a blessing. [He says that in such a practised voice.]

I'm not at all sorry for making you feel that way, but I apologise, nonetheless.

[syned_a_brik]

Apologies vork better if hyu dun start dem off by saying hyu ain't sorry. Fonny how dat goes.

[divinating]

It was a formality for your sake. I had hoped you would appreciate it.

[syned_a_brik]

For a seer, hyu dun know very much about how pipple vork.

Iz hyu gonna stop starink, or not?

[divinating]

Oh, I do. I enjoy making a point of being obtuse.

I suppose I could try.

[syned_a_brik]

Ain't "obtuse" vun of dose synodingies? Vords dat mean odder vords. Don't dat vun mean schtupid?

Yah, now dat might be happreciated.
