Klyk frowned, looking slightly offended, and tilted his head. "I believe I am misunderstanding that phrase," he said. It was hard to guess what non-offensive meaning "ride bitch" meant in this--or any--context. It sounded very much like he was being called a bitch, which was both rude and a dog joke, neither of which he particularly liked. But the casualness with which it was said led him to believe it was a colloquialism he'd never run into before. He preferred to give people the benefit of the doubt.
"Yes, I am the stubborn one here, clearly," Klyk said, without a hint of sarcasm in his voice. "And in any case, there is little here I could safely shove into your mouth, even if I had the intention." Completely straight face. "So I'm afraid you will have to fend for yourself on that front."
