Any time a teacher picked on him, Kieran effortlessly outdid them.

Annoying face-fungus’d history teacher: “Kier Hardie was a bastard. What’s a bastard, Lavery?”

Kieran: “Man with a beard, sir.”

Poker-backed Principal trying to be witty, pointing to dog-end in the playground: “Is that cigarette butt yours, Lavery?”

Kieran, feigning politeness: “Oh, no, sir, you saw it first.”
