"I don't know!" He huffs, then shakes his head. "I've never encountered anyone like you that's so adamant about me not helping them. It's unfamiliar territory, and it doesn't make sense!

He makes an exasperated noise, then motions at Francisca. "It'd be like if I asked you to stop being French or something!"
