[Believe it or not, Jaime has actually gotten better at lying over the years. He's just better at dealing with suspicions than outright accusations.
He just ends up shoving his hands in his pockets, thinking about what to say and how to say it. It would be so much easier to outright deny it if he were talking to a stranger instead of someone who had been honest enough to share his own sordid past.
His next question has more to do with how to hide it than to actually discuss his strength - something that is not, in fact, his own.]
Every guy likes people to think they're strong.
[Well, not Jaime. But that's different.]
But what makes you think I'm that strong when I could hardly lift one of your yo-yo things?
