"The Traveler? Really?" That sends Alec cackling for a moment. His friend Rhys who is sort of his counterpart in reality...ish... maybe... well, he's one of the few people Alec will actually listen to when told doing something will have catastrophic consequences for the entire multiverse... is often known as the Traveler, the Far Traveler, the Wanderer things like that. Taking his 'name' just amuses the fuck out of Alec and Rhys will be hearing about this later. It won't get much of a reaction, but still.
"It's more fun that way," is the only thing he says there.
The stupidity rule is one of the ways he can maintain order at an Inn which allows beings of various states of power and stuffness. And to let others take comfort in knowing he has some sort of 'boundaries'. He does snort at the mimicking and the Alec-gauge, but Phoenix isn't wrong.
At the mention of the not-liking being called a god bit, Alec does feel the need to say, "That's because we're not. Gods are things of reality. Gods get things from being worshiped by people. I don't. I'm a parasite pretending to be real. A penguin can swim in the ocean, but that doesn't mean it's a fish." It's said sort of snappishly. He understands that some people have a hard time understanding the distinction, especially since superficially he does seem like a god. But, better they should worship something that will do them good.
Though apparently they're not getting a good trade; what with that promise. Because yes, technically, if there is a rock the size of the tankard left of the planet, the promise has still been kept. Another one of the reasons why Alec dislikes being called a god.
Out of all the things that Simon has said about the changes he's caused, the chaos chieftain is the one that Alec could care less about. He's always considered himself an entity of chaos. There are multiple. Also, less of a burden on him. Moving up in the hierarchy is good for something, he guesses?
"You want the hat? Phoenix got me a hat when that happened to me." He's completely pokerfaced when he says that.
