'What colour should they be?' 'Why would you think they should be different colours?' 'Do you have pockets?' 'Yes, I do and no, you cannot examine them.'" He shrugged his shoulders, looking very put-upon. "I was saving time and pointless confusion, therefore yes, I think it was necessary. It is a sad shame that you are so easily... startled."
A smile did crack there. "Of course, you might have said 'thank you'."
