Side-handedly

While Kiko seemed to understand my intention to use this task to side-handedly ask him questions about himself, he played along, indicating that he would like to have the power of a ninja who could control his chakra, that he worried about losing power, and at times wanted to be invisible, particularly at the ninja academy (the equivalent of his school).

Also, it's right-sized in terms of its overall dimensions, especially in contrast with its larger brother, the previously and side-handedly derided X3, which is based on the new, larger 3-Series.

All right, now this will settle some longstanding beefs about the apparently competing markets of the Toronto Argonauts and the Buffalo Bills – and perhaps even side-handedly address the NFL's reported designs on the big Canadian market.
