[Hold up, what? Usually the way it goes is that Quentin makes these pompous claims, and everybody groans, maybe grudgingly accepts that he might be objectively correct on some things but insists that he needs to adjust his attitude. Be humble. Some kind of bullshit like that.

The way it does not go is some girl just takes him at his word and then... gives him more shit to do? Gleefully? While giggling?? Hey! That's not fair!

But he can't just refuse it and look like he's not what he claimed to be. So he's stuck being played like a fiddle by this random girl. On the other hand, it's good, right? To be helpful? Uuuugh, why did he ever decide to be a good guy instead of burning down that school?]


Oh, uh. Yeah, sure, you're welcome? [He takes the tablet and eyes her warily. Is she going to stand there and watch him mess with it or leave him alone or...?]
