Some things you do. Like that, for instance. It can help someone in ways you probably couldn't understand.

There had been enough clues for him to figure it out then, had he taken the time to look at things more objectively.

[Yes, he is defending this by framing it as respecting Mello's intelligence. Which he actually does.]

Clues are all fine and dandy, but when someone isn't picking up what you're putting down, it's time to change tactics. [ no matter their intellect. ]

Who said I was leaving them deliberately?

[One or two, perhaps. But even those he more expected Mello to take as taunts or attempts to hold leverage.]

You're telling me you expected him to catch on to clues that you didn't even realize you were leaving? Someone needs to sit you down in front of a television and put on some PBS.

[ you need some social skills near and only elmo can do this right ]

"Expect" is a strong word.

Why? [Look, it's not that he hasn't heard of PBS, he just doesn't know what kind of programming is on it. Why should he? Nobody at the House has had a normal childhood to the point where it's arguable none of them have had a childhood at all.]

Because you need help only Sesame Street can give you. Oscar the Grouch has more social skills than you and he lives in a fucking trash can.

Sesame Street is a children's show, by the way, to help children develop important skills like counting, and how not to be a total dick.

I know how to count.

[Yes he's deliberately leaving it at that because he thinks it's funny.]

Hadn't we already established that?

I always like to remind myself of these things. [ lbr, it's really more of a reminder for him and not her. ] You should work on it.
