The message comes with a minute or two delay. Maybe five. You have to give him a moment to think up of something!
Because he's deciding to take a page out of Alois' book. Terrible jokes (and he is quite aware they're terrible, thank you) are hilarious because they are so bad, aren't they? It's humor and self-awareness rolled into one.]
Did you hear about the horse with the negative attitude, Sylvain?
[ A very good thing, that's what. Don't think too hard, Dimitri, he'd hate to see you hurt yourself over this--but still, even after that delay, Sylvain's response comes only a short moment after: ]
no, i did not. but i bet youre gonna tell me.
[ Please tell him. He won't even look away from his compass while he waits. ]
[ It's thoroughly enjoyed!! Just... not by Sylvain, who does laugh, albeit in that fond 'man, how am I friends with someone so ridiculous' kind of way, because he has No Taste. ]
you know, i really think youll have better luck if you just play up the eyepatch.

I'm crying
no, i did not. but i bet youre gonna tell me.

i'll never forgive you
[Enjoy this epitome of dad joke humor.]
The price I'm willing to pay for humor!!
you know, i really think youll have better luck if you just play up the eyepatch.
[ He says this because he cares. ]
but is that price too high
Do not tell me you did not find that even the tiniest bit funny. It is a play on words. "Nay" and "neigh", much like a horse neighs.
[Maybe if he explained it to you!! Because honestly, it's the sort that would have had Dimitri laughing for how utterly cheesy it is.]
