Barney initially comes across as courteous, mannered, kind, and respectful in his early interactions. Every time he receives help from or his favors are fulfilled by the staff, he either says 'thank you' or compliments the staff in some generous way almost every message from Barney includes him calling the staff a friend. Despite this, he uses the staff as much as possible and exploits them to give him what he wants, and frankly appears as very demanding and manipulative—a side that reas its head when he’s denied—as he gets upset and even makes threats if the staff refuses to give him what he asks for. He is heavily dependent on the player for favors.
Overpolite at first—calls staff “friend”—then pivots to bargaining; uses short promises and delayed threats; compliments in the same breath as demands; gets clipped when refused.
