I can... I remember one sitting in a carriage with our chancellor, driving along the little drummer boy, then sticking my hand out of the window, pressing the little drummer boy like a button to switch off the surveillance system just to tell her a lousy joke. Yes... pretty odd.

I can bruise my finger because I'm dumb. Can you?

Probably not easily. Never done that type of work, and that sounds like something that'd require a decent amount of stamina and I'm a lazy boy. Most I've done is remove excess branches from trees with a machete.

I can't get myself to focus solely on one personal project, can you?
