Kurloz simply continued to smile as he gave a little shrug. The boy looked utterly helpless really. Not that he was he just played that way because it often worked in his favour most of the time. In reality he probably could have easily swung to the side and dodged the ball or caught it but well...somehow probably got a laugh out of him getting hit. And a laugh could mean a friendship. Because friendships are the best thing ever. Even if Kurloz didn't actually care one way or the other about people.

"You're just a motherfucking chatter box, aren't cha?" deadpanned Bad Girl. Ugg, this one was kind of boring. The ex-assassin idly shifted her weight once more, standing up straight with her blood-stained bat slung over her shoulder. Hmmm...even if this brat was a bit on the boring side, there certainly wasn't anyone in the mansion like him. Guess that made him the most interesting boring person ever!

As she thought, Bad Girl tapped her bat against her shoulder without thinking about it. Force of habit, really. Either way, she'd might as well start talking again. Someone had to after all. "So. Can you speak at all or are ya just mute?"

The boy gave what appeared to be a silent laugh, what with the way his shoulders shook and all. Being called boring was a common thing. People just weren't comfortable with silence. But when it came to Kurloz silence from him was better than the alternative.

Finally he pushed himself to his feet, as sitting on the ground was starting to cramp his neck. He stretched to his full height, back cracking and popping as he did, before slouching forward. In response to her second question he smiled and gave a nod before raising a hand, forefinger and thumb pinched together like he was holding a zipper pull as he moved them both in front of his pressed together lips. While it was often a signal for "My lips are sealed" it also worked to tell people that didn't know sign language he was mute. Although he was mute by choice for the time being.
