Message: <blockquote data-quote="Zerith" data-source="post: 5497829" data-attributes="member: 99953">Alexander rolled his eyes in apparent annoyance, as he continued to play out his noble arse role “They never ask ‘Can anyone here talk to the man eating, fire breathing dragon?’ No, no… it’s ‘Bark to the flea bag!’” he mumbled beneath his breath as if pouting while letting the "young noble arse" bit fall on death ears; for the time it suited him to be an annoying cut out, and the more an annoying cut out spoke real sentences the more of a cut out and the less of what it pretended to be it became.He knew what most expected out of such an arse and had to change remarkably little in his attitude to act the part; he just had to act stupid, and, not talk as much as he normal would.  Truth was he was pouting for no reason other than for show, and when, not if but when, it suited him to drop the act he could shed the act seamlessly without dishonesty. Then while numbing incoherently, and with big words around the theme of his ‘great talents’ being unappreciated, he untied his horse and mounted it; his black, gold embroidered, cloak flowed dramatically as he did so. doubtlessly because his ego demanded that it have a minor enchantment to do so, and obviously not because he grabbed it and flicked it around while one of his hands was hidden behind him as he mounted.   He then bid his mount to fallow as he drew in a deep breath and then exhaled through his nostrils; after doing so his mumblings halted and his manner became chipper but still bleed of a holier than thou through and through. Him then taking the effort to give himself a once over mad it obvious that his shift in attitude was in preparation to meet with another lord; the early numberings could also be speculated as getting it out of the way so as to have the meeting go smoother.Alexander was keen on subtly playing up the noble brat card, and part of that meant that the only people whose opinions mattered were other nobles; this was his general theory anyways, but he also knew the value of not making enemies out of commoners: they were more than cross enough just from taxes after all.</blockquote>
