“Don’t drop her, now, or I’ll be very annoyed.”
Ahahaha!
After what this dude just did, this is easily the funniest line we’ve had in a while. 😛
Theo nodded, raising his voice to be heard over Aster’s shrieks, “Yes sir.”
Okay, so here’s my current read of the situation: This scary man, presumably one of the Slaughterhouse Nine, came in to talk to Purity, finding only Theo and Aster. Theo has been terrifiedly sitting there, trying not to antagonize the scary man in any way, while they wait for Kayden to come back. Now the man is basically asking Theo to leave the room and, secondarily, deal with something much more mundane like change diapers on a baby, and like hell is Theo going to argue against that.
“Must you keep calling me that? Do I really look like a sir?”
…could it be Mannequin, perhaps?
While the only reasons I brought up Hatchet Face specifically were that I wanted to make an unfounded guess at which one it’d be if it were one of them and that Hatchet Face got some early favoritism out of me just for the name, I do think Hatchet Face and Mannequin are the two main suspects here. The man’s appearance is being called attention to (and will probably be described in the next paragraph), so it’s probably relevant.
