[He's a paper-pusher, that's what he is! ...The most anal paper-pusher the world has ever seen, but that's a different issue altogether.]
[Archer's not entirely sure what to make of Kimblee's expression. That leads him to the realization that he was expecting Kimblee to react badly to getting a gift and that... really doesn't sit well with him. Yes, the other version of this man reacted badly the first time Archer gave him something, but the situation is different and there seem to be more differences between the two versions of the Crimson Alchemist than similarities.]
As opposed to what exactly?
[The remark is as sarcastic as usual, but Archer is genuinely curious. It's possible Kimblee has seen him fussing with those Murkrow eggs, but that would involve more time and effort than catching something. If Kimblee was expecting something from the Game Corner then he's sorely mistaken; Archer hasn't set foot in there since he ragequit a few weeks ago.]
