[He isn't going to get on his knees to pursue an angry girl. He will, however, stand and position himself directly in front of the vent. She could get to his injured leg if she wanted to, and he would be lying if he said that he wasn't purposefully presenting that temptation. Baiting her.
He feels too vulnerable. He wants another taste of anger and pain, and he wants to manipulate someone into doing his will. It doesn't matter if his will is idiotic.]
