[Waves hand] Oh, you know, it's not a secret. I like magic, so I like to watch battles... [A little sadly.] Because I can't fight. I'm not... I... so I can't... you know.
Anyway! [smiles, so he won't feel like he has to respond to something like that] I think you're really cool, for being exactly what a fighter should be. I mean, I know you went to school for it, but not everyone seems to take it so completely. It's utterly what you are, and you are a thing of beauty to watch.
--Ah, but I'm sorry if it's weird of me to say so to your face. I don't want to make you feel like you're under a mag-- magnifying glass. [Re-re-evaluated too late to pretend I was unaware of any irony there.] I just watched you fight because it's the best way I can imagine feeling the thrill of being someone's fighter. [Somehow, I feel like "creepily personal vicarious experience" will go over much better with Soubi than "celebrity-like popular treatment." And it's very close to the truth.]
