[Diarmuid shakes his head.]

There is no maybe about it. You and I both know I am. Especially when I am happy or proud.

[fionnuisce]

It's a good quality to have, even if you might overdo it at times.

[oathshackledbird]

Well, you are quite welcome to teach me how to not overdo it so much. I hope you know that.

[fionnuisce]

I'm no liar, but the specific details of honesty aren't always my strong point. You may be on your own for that one.

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid gives Waver a confused look.]

Wouldn't that make you the perfect teacher, though? I mean, how do you know where to draw the line?

[fionnuisce]

Years of practice--I don't know if that's anything that can really be taught to begin with.

[oathshackledbird]

Of course...

[Diarmuid rolls his eyes.]

It can't be easy, can it?

[fionnuisce]

Nothing important ever is.

[oathshackledbird]

Just remember that the next time I say something you wish I hadn't. I'm important or something silly like that...
