[One wonders why he hasn't used his invincibility spell as his fox swerves off the road from the blast of another racer's bomb - the turtle has to dive into the water to throw his fox back onto the road.]
Hahaha. I think I'm just an incomplete puzzle for now. It depends on what other people want to do with me, I think.
[New lap. He's not going the way he did before, off the beaten path. Now he's with the rest of the NPC racers, swerving around them with a good amount of skill to gain some places.]
Underestimated me? [Ah, of course. He almost expected to hear that from someone, at some point.] Hahaha, perhaps. I do things that will help us all, in the end. Burn down the forest to save the trees, perhaps? That's probably not the right saying.
It's certainly not a saying that I'm familiar with, but who can say? You're a lot more deliberate than you let on, aren't you?
[ If they weren't both focused on the screen to some extent right now she'd just be beaming cheerfully up at him. That said, she still does giggle a little, softly. ]

I'm a brilliant detective. If I wasn't deliberate, I wouldn't be a good one! Haha!
[But he isn't a good one, he knows that. At least, not a good one the way people think brilliant detectives are.]
Sometimes, metaphors mean more than people think they do. [He actually turns to her, grinning.] And I think you're right. Memories are one thing, but actions and words decide a person's character, right?
A squad shrouded in mystery. ▓▓▓▓▒ has met them once, and others can only guess at the members' identities from rumors. Members of the squad all have advanced AI and high capacity for independent operation. Rumor has it that Squad 404 usually deals with ░▓▒▓▓▓▒▓▓▒▒▒░░

The cat finds a hammer that gets swung onto the ground and sets everyone lightly spinning. Earthquake, mild but an interruption all the same. ]
It's simply too soon to decide, isn't it?

Maybe. But if people leave me untouched, the puzzle pieces might just build up. Better now than later, haha.
