Asuka:"Oh mein gott you remember!"
Hikari:"I was so scared you wouldn't, [...] Or worse, you would and you'd be so broken I couldn't reach you..."
Asuka:"Who, me? Yeah, right, like I could stay crazy forever without getting bored of it. Oh, it's so good to see you again!"

Madness got boring after a while.

“Is it true he’s mad, Minister?”
“I wish I could say that he was,” said Fudge slowly. “I certainly believe his master’s defeat unhinged him for a while. The murder of Pettigrew and all those Muggles was the action of a cornered and desperate man—cruel … pointless. Yet I met Black on my last inspection of Azkaban. You know, most of the prisoners in there sit muttering to themselves in the dark; there’s no sense in them … but I was shocked at how normal Black seemed. He spoke quite rationally to me. It was unnerving. You’d have thought he was merely bored—asked if I’d finished with my newspaper, cool as you please, said he missed doing the crossword. Yes, I was astounded at how little effect the dementors seemed to be having on him—and he was one of the most heavily guarded in the place, you know. Dementors outside his door day and night.”

"You know, Guildmaster," Savra said, "I think those legends I heard about you being completely insane may have been off the mark."
"No, I'm quite insane," Svogthir replied. "Trust me, no one thinks through his plans as thoroughly as a crazy wizard, especially one who is completely, utterly bored. Do we have a deal, Matka Savra?"

"You can't frighten me anymore. For the first million years of nonsensical containment procedures and tortures and dream logic, it was the worst pain I had ever felt, but I survived. For the second million years of nonsensical containment procedures, it was still the hardest thing I had ever done, but I survived. By the third million years, I was growing numb. There's only so many times you can watch anything before you grow numb. But you know what, you motherfucker? I survived. Which is more than you can claim, you dumb brute, because you never lived at all. [...] I am numb to your bullshit, because here's the thing about horror and weirdness: the more you reveal of it, the less effect it has. I am sick of your horror. I am sick of you."

— Professor Paradox, Ben 10 Alien Force S 1 E 10 Paradox
"The Trickster has played many parts over the millennia, but never that of straight man."
