[ It's not even said strongly enough to be sarcastic, because it's just a truth, and one that still stings. Joric probably met Blue when he'd been hale and lively (for the extremely short time he got to enjoy it) thanks to Yzak's contract with an orb - so the slow-moving, gaunt man who can barely make it down a few halls of the station without support from the memory is probably jarring. ]

That sounds like him, though. Patience was one particularly good ability of his. [ Even though he had his frustrating moments as anybody else - well deserved as they were.
