Always a difficult situation... I'd investigate further.

But I've already got something on my plate, and Kitt would kill me if I did something as foolhardy as investigate something that's likely way beyond my league.

Well, I... don't think you need to worry. Other people will handle it eventually.

... Hopefully.

Mm... can't respond to every crisis...

I already know that feeling.

Makes me wish I could stop time to deal with them.

...That'd just it make more stressful. If you could do that, you'd- have to deal with all of them.

I can deal with a bit of extra stress.

I'm a Griffin after all, and still British to boot.

It's doubling down on having a stiff upper lip. -shrugs-

-Doesn't really know this cultural stereotype-

Uh, well- yeah. That's... understandable.

... I forget- you don't really have the same context for British people do you?

-Kitt has gone down to the upstairs hallway to set up a couple of rooms-

-Purr, in the avvie, is making a beeline for the kitchen-

-waving hi just casually to Trudy as she goes by-

This is fair enough...

I trust you don't really need or want a lecture on what Britain is.

... Not that I'd be able to give one anyway.

My family's about as patriotic as a dolphin is a fish.

Yes...

My lecture probably would need context explanations of references that I'd casually make...

-nods-

Exactly.

The point was anyway that- well- the British are known culturally for-... how do I explain having a stiff upper lip...

-thinks for a moment-

Its' basically taking anything that could possibly disturb us in some way, whether it's stress, chaos, or generally fear- and repressing it intensely in order to tackle it down and deal with it, carrying on with our polite orderly and calm lives whilst fighting our battles internally if we have them.

The stiff upper lip.
