He'd seen those shadows that haunted the geneticist's eyes before. Namely in himself, when he'd caught sight of his reflection in one of the display cases at Gray and Sons, right before Brian Davis had shown up. The desperation. The zeal. He hadn't understood what it meant then, but he knew all too well, now. And to think that Suresh was on the eve of his fall was somewhat disturbing and amazingly elating.
He'd have to be careful if he wanted to use it, though. Suresh broken could mean terrible things for him, if he moved too quickly or said the wrong things. If he was mindful of what he said, however, choosy about how he said it, he might be able to make this worth his while. And as such, he licked at his lips, thoughtfully, before, "You may get your wish, Suresh. If you let them keep me here, long enough, they'll kill me.
"But tell me. It you let them do it, would that really be justice for your father? Wouldn't you rather do it yourself?"
