”Robin, you’re exactly a mother hen. Otherwise I wouldn’t
                                    have said it. You care about us more than you

{ here, will pauses, still grinning before he
  continued further. } 

                                                                        “I am inclined to agree with you. But
                                                                          often it’s more brutal.”

        ❛Really ? Where'd you get that idea from ?❜ 

                     ( With an amused chuckle, he lifts a hand and ruffles
                        the  other’s hair – mussing it up. And once he  had
                        done  that, he gives the boy a playful shove on  the 
                        shoulder. )

                 ❛— Mm, that’s true !❜
                            ❛So  m a y b e , you should listen to me more !❜
