Theatrical Muse #306 Prove Your Point

Sam, like all of his brethren, is capable of inhuman displays and acts of subtlety. He is less well acquainted with restraint.

The words she uses are things like "wild hair up his butt" and "creature of impulse" and, more seldom but still often enough to be memorably, "bloody idiot" and "damned fool." Most often his childish games and childish things end up in chaos, but not always catastrophe. She saves calling him a dumbass for catastrophes.

Sam is a big believer in doing what needs to be done. His idea of what needs to be done and other people's generally differ, and if you leave him alone too long his ideas differ from anything anyone would call good sense. Or common sense. Or sense at all. But he thinks it needs to be done, and when he stops to explain it or at least stops long enough for her to catch up with him, she can sort of see the method in his madness. It wouldn't be her first choice of approaches.

But then, if she were him, they would be in a whole other kind of trouble.
