Summary
"You do know an awful lot about me. It's sweet, actually, how protective you are about Elim." He favored Tain with one of his dazzling smiles.
"I'm protective of my investments. Even in exile, Elim continues to be useful to me. And he's about to be very useful to you too."
"Forgive me, I'd thought you were insinuating he'd been plenty useful to me in the past," Julian said. "Or was it the other way around?"
"I'm glad you find it so amusing. Elim's quite sentimental, you know. I'll be sure to tell him how you've been talking about him like a plaything that amuses you."
