"But you know you are," Alastor insists, moving now, twisting toward Angelo on the bed so he can slide up against him, draping an arm across his chest. "Forget any offer I've ever made to you for a moment: when I say you're special, you're magnificent, I mean it. There has never been anyone else like you, il mio tesoro. You can shape reality with your mind -- with practice, even I don't know how powerful you could become. And the two of us together... there is no question that we would be unstoppable. That's what you deserve. That's what I want. I want to see you elevated, so everyone else can admire you the way I do."
