Petal has chosen to replace the simple word 'yes' with 'of course'.
It can make her sound either certain, smug or plain rude.
Certain...
Me: Have you brushed your teeth?
Petal: Of course.
Smug...
Me: Did your friends like your new shoes?
Petal: Of course.
Rude...
Me: Would you like toast for breakfast?
Petal: Of course!
Will she ever just say 'yes' again?
Yes, of course she will.
