Still Nic said nothing. He seemed to be surprisingly resistant to James' games.

--

Dan said nothing, still waiting for the doctor to come by.

James continued to smirk, "Well, Dominic. There's one thing I hate more than anything in this world and that's the happiness of others." he continued in Dominic's voice, "When I see it... I want to crush it." he laughed in Laurel's laugh, "I think I'll start with yours." her voice said warmly.

Nic continued to hold his ground, remaining silent.

James laughed, this time in Nic's voice, "You don't think your love can falter?" he asked, "You don't think a few... misunderstandings... could break you two apart?" he grinned.

Nic was silent for a moment, thinking something over. "She didn't tell you did she?" he observed. "Do you want to know, or do you not care?"

James cocked his head a little before he replied in the changing tones, "She told me enough from her reaction to your voice." he smirked and changed back to Nic's voice, "I love you, Yue... I love you."

Nic looked... confused. Like he really had not idea what James was talking about. He shook his head a little before getting back on topic. "So you just want to punish me then?" he assumed.

James shrugged, "I hate your happiness." he stated, "I hate happiness because I was created to bring pain." he smiled.

"... Same," Nic replied with a small nod. "But it's time for a break."

James laughed, a painfully screeching sound, "Break?" he asked in a condescending voice, "I have no break from what I am." He titled his head at Nic again, "I hate Rosen too... but I'm not allowed to hurt him. You'll have to suffice." he sneered before turning to leave.

"... You think you can threaten me and then just leave?" Nic asked.

James started to walk away, whistling exactly like a robin.

In a graceful blink of an eye, Nic moved to intercept James, fully confident in his ability to overpower him if necessary.

James let Nic intercept him, he didn't seem bothered by the fact as he watched Nic out of the corner of his eye. His head was twitching slightly to the left every few seconds again.

Nic brought James to a stop. "Do whatever the hell you want to me," he told him bluntly. "But I won't let you drag Laurel into this. She's been through enough. And if you insist, I'll have to knock you out of the equation until you're back in your right mind."

James laughed a little, amused. "You've just told me what would make you truly unhappy." he mused, "That was foolish of you, Dominic."
