I think Batty is afraid to fight LOL. I had a bully in high school. He would make fun of me and my sister; calling us racial slurs. He and his brother pulled a flail on me one time . . . yes, you read that right, a goddamn FLAIL. A spikey metal ball on a chain, attached to a wooden handle. The next day I stood up to him and punched him out. He stopped harassing me after that.
