'I kill someone and suddenly everybody thinks I'm a bad guy! It's not fair that I'm treated so poorly.'
[ Elias finishes a few more words before setting down his pen and reaching to pour them both a drink. He makes a quiet huff of amusement at Dorian's impression. ]
I don't think you understand, he didn't mean to kill me, and it therefore should not be counted against him. I do believe that's how crimes work, no?

[ He's a snob! He knows that! He will happily live up to that!
Dorian's got a bottle of gin in one hand, mostly drunk, and a bottle of tonic water and a few glasses tucked into the crook of his arm. ]
I brought some tonic water if you want a g&t but really, this is the sort of thing you'll want to drink straight.

It truly is amazing how one man can have absolutely zero capacity for self-examination and reflection. God forbid you acknowledge your own faults.
