[Sadie laughs kind of bashfully. Though she does legitimately hope she doesn't turn into an asshole—that's not...among the warnings she's really gotten about manticores, but then, why would any of them advertise a trait like that? But she's not that worried.]

Well, things between us better stay the same, then! Who's gonna keep you in line if I start to turn around and laugh at your bad behavior?

[She jokes, but, to be fair—aside from making enemies and getting himself in trouble, Sadie hasn't been telling Lars how to live his life. If she took anything away from Mask Island, it was that Lars needed his elbow room. Sadie hadn't been giving him the distance she thought she was; that she was intending to give him.]
