Man, he's so shameless. I suppose clicking those dialogue choices in a game wouldn't be so bad, but since they aren't in a game anymore, he needed to trick and mislead the winter fairy queen by using his own words. I wonder sort of work exactly he was doing. Selling crypto to the ignorant? Used cars salesman? Maybe it wasn't anything especially exotic, but he just happens to have a personality like that. Maybe he grew up in a family teaching that every interaction between humans is a deal with a winner and a loser.
