"Okay! I'm..." The Balladeer feels several different phrases bubbling up, absolutely all of them threatening, and instead shuts his mouth and backs up several steps, hands raised in a gesture of surrender.

But he can't keep a lid on the curse forever, so once he's back a few paces, he finishes, "...definitely a threat. Look how threatening I am." He smiles weakly at the horned lady. Great, wonderful. Well, maybe he can at least use his newfound powers of deception for some good? He turns to wave at the small crowd of passerby gathering. "Hi! We're just shooting a music video! Our cameraman's over there - " He waves in a random direction. " - so if you could just move along, we're fine."

That hadn't even been the story he'd had in mind. He didn't have any story at all in mind. It just makes itself up, and that is incredibly unnerving.
