Literally when he yells "you're not funny" at Gwen. He constantly calls them "kid" and sets himself above them but it's painfully obvious that it's incredibly easy to hurt his babygirl feelings by just calling him "Dark garfield"
So since #godot is real popular rn I should note I am in fact developing a set of FPS oriented node libraries in GDScript with an eye toward ease of use/modding/maintenance. I'll post them once I clean them up a bit
I'm not a devout Linux person but windows definitely is malware by the definition that it deceptively does stuff you don't want it to.

Helped a little with An Outcry, helping a little with Blanksword.
