The thing I love about playing Nathan is that it can be very difficult to tell from one moment to the next whether he's serious, bantering, joking, throwing up subtle insults, or really just talking in circles enough to cause enough distraction to do whatever else is on his mind. He can take an insult or a jibe, though, and actually enjoys the ins and outs of the exchanges.
As I told one person in particular, in a slightly different way, he's almost happier finding the biggest pain-in-the-arse in the room for verbal jousting than he is surrounded by passive people - pretty or otherwise - whose best line is /chuckle or /laugh, with nothing added to it.

"But in the laugh there was another voice. A clearer laugh, an ironic laugh. A laugh which laughs because it chooses not to weep."
