Yohan attempts to regain his dignity. He settles for what is actually a pretty good impression of a parent disappointed by a child's immaturity.
The tiefling doesn't seem to care whether you approve or not. "Trying to make me feel bad? Good luck. I ran away from home and killed those who've come looking for me, you're going to have to do better than that."
He smiles at you, somewhat unsettlingly. "What's the point of being 'nice' or not? Such a term is incredibly vague and is up to interpretation. Besides, the universe is too big and our time here too short for anything we do to really matter. So what's the point of trying to appease others? The best you can do is make your time here as fun for yourself as possible. And I find humor in seeing others' responses to my actions."

Eladrin's brain obviously begins to fizzle
Valmir smiles, pleased he could lead another down the path of insanity.
Katarina leans over, "Be nice cause we're putting you up for the night. Or go somewhere else, kiddo. Kapiche?"
Yohan nods his agreement. *That's from the characters, not from me.*
"Again. 'Nice.' Vague."
"Okay then, polite. There's a book in the back room on manners, if you need to check some definitions." There is indeed a book on manners in the back room, but it's court manners for a few hundred years earlier. Think of all the ridiculous etiquette stereotypes that you can imagine.

The tiefling harumphs and folds his arms. "I do not follow manners. They're completely pointless! Why does it matter if I don't open the door for others? They're more than capable of doing that themselves!"
The tiefling harumphs and folds his arms. "I do not follow manners. They're completely pointless! Why does it matter if I don't open the door for others? They're more than capable of doing that themselves!"
"Because it makes innkeepers less likely to kick you out," deadpans Katarina. You get the sense that she's the one dealing with drunks late on a Friday night.

"Well, compared to the size and lifespan of pretty much everything else that exists in the universe, we're completely insignificant. Nothing we do effects them in any meaningful way, nor do our actions last very long. We only have control of a less than microscopically tiny point in time, and an even smaller point in the universe. Everything we do is so incredibly insignificant so as not to matter in the slightest. Therefore, we might as well do what makes us feel good as much as possible for as long as possible. If nothing we do matters, than we might as well make the most of our cosmic insignificance."

"OH! You're trying to explain the fact that we're dust in the wind and the only thing we can do will only have a minuscule impact on the future because you believe that's it's best to look in the grand scheme and not the small grains you do have control over. Like how my toys in the grand scheme don't mean much, but in the short term will make someone smile and that's the best that I can hope for and be perfectly fine with since those're my grains."

He seems a bit bemused, likely because you actually care about the happiness of those not in close contact with you. "...For the most part, yes. If making those toys makes you happy, it's the best you can do." He scowls a bit. "As for me, I wasn't about to just sit around at home all day every day, going through school and learning before heading out into the world to enjoy myself! Besides, I've got my imaginary friend to take care of me." He gestures to an empty space to his left.
