[As satisfying as that quip was to make, it's almost not worth the tugging of his limbs and the torment the strain causes. Almost...but if the only way he can fight back right now is with words? That's what he'll do. Right after he catches his breath again, biting back the yell that's right there in the back of his throat.
As for Chrollo's threat...he has to wonder if it's a bluff or not. But he's wondering more what was meant by the rest of what he said. What doesn't he need to be intact for?
Is it possible this person is someone who can cut him off from or even steal his ability? Is that why he's so interested in the way it works? Well then. There's something more to it that the clown doesn't know. Hasn't said, at least. It's small, but important.]
Ah...as I can't...quite ruin you at present...I'll settle for ruining your day.
