Pust underplays his dangerous nature, by blurting out his 'feelings' that are of a most dangerous nature, therefore people think that not only is he a bit mad but that they have the upper hand because they now know his plans so they can take advantage of that fact. What better way to convince your opponent that they are one step ahead of you than telling them a version of events which fits the bill, especially when you appear too mad to realise that you are actually doing it. It's genius in a way, it's his way of hiding behind his real powers. He gives off the impression that he's mad and relatively powerless, instead of conniving and hiding behind a powerful barrier. Just wait and see.
I don't think this is true. I think he is stark raving mad. He doesn't realise he's talking aloud at all, he's just shadowcrazy.
