Otter Creek boredom

Sheogorath was intrigued to find that the boy did not pose further questions or muse about the subject, as though it was not interesting enough and should be cast away. As though the answer was not what he expected or certainly not what he wanted.

The next question was at least equally interesting. Another thing to muse about, a thing Cicero might've enjoyed more than Sheogorath, but never the matter. "Perhaps." An answer that was more Cicero than Sheogorath, and it annoyed him. Philosophy wasn't his thing. "Maybe there's a big waterfall beyond the oceans, where the water just falls off the side of the earth." His answer was purposefully flat, because Sheogorath didn't want to muse over the endless possibilities. He didn't want to be more Cicero and less Sheogorath.
