Aah... I was a comic book artist and illustrator. We learn to tell stories in as few lines as possible. We associate with characters better if there aren't too many details for our minds to process.
And yeah, I've seen that expression from parents and loved ones before. You just *can't* be upset with someone who's trying so hard and doing things with your own good in mind.
It's how I look at Gilderoy Lockhart every day. ^_^
