[The words sound vague, but warm—they're placeholders, really, while Nikolas lets his brain indulge in the words my friend. No matter that he knows he would like more; my friend is beautiful on its own, and more than he deserves besides. He knows how his expression looks, in that moment, and wonders if Winter sees too.
But then it slides away, because it must. Nikolas tilts himself in "his" chair to face Winter, still smiling.]
I imagine a great many people would be more than happy to see me spirited off by some doppelganger. You must realize, between myself and that alien Nikolas Avis, I must be what would be considered the "evil" one. It simply could not be otherwise.
