The fact the spotlight was on him, the horrible and awkward silence that arose because of him, and the fact he was troubling Jezebel. Why was he being such a horrible person right now? He understood he was frustrated, but that was no excuse. Exploding at someone just because they used a word he didn't like was just the worse. He even called everyone idiots, too! But it wasn't like he didn't think this. And that was probably the worst part. He couldn't step down, though. He shook his head. The insults themselves merely bounced off of Zach -- he couldn't care much less of what Matthews thought about him. But the fact that Matthews was reacting this way meant he was either stupid or he was trying to look the other way. [color=0076a3]"So you don't understand..."[/color] Zachary briefly seemed stultified by Matthews' statement, and as if the spark of humanity had left him, Zachary's eyes no longer seemed to reflect any life. This lasted but a moment, and when he began speaking once more, there was no anger, but instead an odd mix of elation and contempt in his tone. [color=0076a3]"Hahaha! What a petty assessment! But then, that can only be expected of some thug who starts giving out platitudes after 'introducing people to reality'. That 'stronger stuff' isn't going to save anyone from a knife in their back, nor is it going to prevent people from killing people."[/color] Zach let out a derisive laugh. [color=0076a3]"And there will be more of that, won't there? It's routine at this point. Really giving Davis the time of his life, aren't we? But let's focus on my choice of company instead, right? You know, that 'silly clown' who hasn't killed anyone yet. I wonder how many here can say the same about their friends?"[/color] Zachary shook his head. [color=0076a3]"Good job, I guess."[/color]
