The scorching hatred... Do you feel it now?

"Things have definitely picked up since you and Dan Heng joined us. Even I'm having a hard time keeping up with it all." He takes a moment to take a breath, watching the others movements carefully before turning his head to the basin near him. "Nothing overly fascinating I'm afraid. This just~

Well. It's not a complete confirmation of what he's suspecting is going on here, but that twitch is enough to let him carry on with his attempt to turn this around on the other. "Well." He starts, shifting his arms so his hand rests on his hip again. "If we're to consider this in the context of~

There's a moment where Phainon could see him twitch, almost imperceptibly. His eye narrows, still staring at the horizon. "Hmph... Prove it." Extends an arm, carefully flicking his wrist as if uniterested.

Suddenly Phainon feels like this is less of a philosophical debate with his teacher and more of an attempt to either trip him up or frustrate him. He folds an arm over his chest, one hand rising to press the side of his index finger into his chin as he studies the professor intently, trying to~

Anaxagoras curves his lips into a smug smile. "An obvious observation if I wanted to keep inside the very limited perception of the average person, Phainon. Of course it follows, that's the very nature of unreasoning." The ragebait follows. "That's why you kept giving me blank sheets each time I »

As always, Phainon listens and takes what he can from Anaxagoras' words, humming in thought a moment. "Well... being unreasonable, disappointment is naturally to follow, no? If I'm already making myself unreasonable, what hope is there that it won't lead to disappointment in the future?"

"You will." He keeps going, speaking ambiguous words as always. "If you keep stalling yourself, of course." The man rolled his eye, folding his arms to a thoughtful pose. "Besides, I didn't say you are disappointing anyone. Why are you putting words I didn't say in my mouth?"

Narrowing his eyes a little, Phainon eyes the other over as though debating what he wants to do, canting his head to the side with a closed eyed smile while gesturing vaguely with his free hand. "I think you forget just how 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘪𝘯𝘨 I can be. Your warriors are no fools but I can be QUITE~

“They’re more likely to believe that you’re repeating words you’ve heard rather than their crowned prince teaching them to you through unorthodox methods, Σωτῆρ.” Waving it off, Mydei tipped his head to the side— As amused as he was, they both knew there’s some truth to what he’s saying. “Good +

"Risk in learning yes, but I don't think this counts as calculated risk. This is more of a... Mydei special. The kind of special that counts more as entertainment than actual learning. Buuut, I suppose if you really WANT me to go and tempt fate with some of your most well-known and battle seasoned~

“And yet I thought you’d enjoy the challenge on if you’ll be fine or need to fight for your honor. There’s risk in learning, just as much as there’s risk in any other action or choice you make.”

Phainon opens his mouth, but the only sound to come out is a stuttered noise like he wasn't sure what to say, one hand coming to rest on his hip. "Learning your language and putting my life at risk by accidentally offending another Kremnoan warrior through no fault of my own are VERY different."

A small snicker— Arms crossing and raising a brow. “Ah-kuh-os. Ἄχος. You wanted to know more and now you know. If you want to learn Kremnoan as badly as you claim, then take what you’re given, Σωτῆρ.”

There wasn't really a next step for him in the moment, more that he was simply lost in thought and taking advantage of the quiet solitude. Turning his head, it took him a moment to realize he's no longer alone. "Oh— hey partner. Sorry— I hadn't realized I have an audience. Did you need something?"

Well he had to learn how to bait from SOMEONE. Looking up, eyes focusing as he's pulled from his thoughts, taking a moment to think about what the other said. "Have I been unreasonable lately Professor? I didn't realize I was disappointing everyone."

"oh look how he's attempting to appear all reasonable. Then he will open his mouth and lower everybody's expectations." Ragebait: deployed.
