I'm glad that I could cast even a guiding light into the darkness which you dwell, then. Now the shadows can show me where I should not tread, devoid of reason as I am.

[ He takes the comment about the clown personally, though, his eyes lighting up and his arms sweeping outward. ]

Fie upon it, then! I cast it all aside - the red nose, the blue and white pinstripes, the rainbow wig, the makeup too! If my kagemusha declares me to cast aside the clown's regalia, then it shall be so! All that is left is a man who needs shake his family to their foundations in hopes they will listen to his mad raving!

Just as he seems like he's about to actually reach for the door, he seems to... walk through a thin, straight line that only seems to appear as he phases through it, his image looking almost two-dimensional as he does.

Leaving you, briefly, with Onni's gravelly chuckle reverberating through the walls. A promise and a threat of the revelry to come. ]
