You're trying to tell me you fought them with a samurai sword? That's insane. Even for you. [ There's still agitation in his tone, but it's mixed with scepticism now. Even though it still bothers him. He'd love to dismiss this story, but Terry knows about Chozen, even though he shouldn't.
And then there's the fact that if he was going to lie, surely he would think up a more believable story than this one. ]
How do you expect me to believe even one bit of a story like that?
[ Yet Daniel is still tense. Because he can't dismiss the possibility either. Not fully. It shows in how every single inch of his body seems tense as he stands there, trying to keep his eyes on the other man as he moves around Daniel. ]
You're lying, Silver. [ There's an extra edge to Daniel's voice as he says it. Because this is what it always comes down to between them, doesn't it? The very crux of all of their interactions, of what the man did to Daniel decades ago.
Maybe Terry thinks he's still that teenager. That nothing has changed. That he can fool Daniel, over and over and over again, bend him to his will. ] You always lie to me.
