Oh dear.
Howls of "I wanna be good" permeate the air.
He thinks he can get away with throwing a major bitchfit, yelling about "not fair" and "lying", and then emerge like nothing had happened three minutes later and go back to watching his mom play a computer game (the argument had been a small one with Marx, or should have been small, over a chair, where it had been Marx's computer chair that he'd taken over) like nothing had happened.
The "I WANNA BE GOOD!" howling ensued when he learned that for pitching the bitchfit, he would be remaining in his room for some chillout time.

You can say you're mad. You can cry and say you're mad. When your body decides to let loose with a payload of tears, there's not much you can do about it. You can, however, refrain from making an unholy fuss of it. You don't get to yell and scream and holler that someone is a liar and not fair when you know full well that you are capable of looking confused and sad and *saying* "I don't think that was fair" like a reasonable human being.
And, you know, when you act like a reasonable human being (like you do for me, little bird) you get treated like one.
