[ It's that last comment that earns a glance from Elan. ]
Oh, really? Is he that fond of you?
[ He's fishing a little - and maybe trying to poke the conversation a little away from himself. He doesn't much enjoy talking about his past, after all - not that he thinks he has much of one to discuss. He's spent most of his life as a double for someone else. It's not a life to think about or build anything on. That's why he's currently trying to do something for himself, after all. Because he wants to, not because someone else is trying to make him into... a tool. Or something worse. ]
Or does he think you burn people after too much exposure?
Happy Christmas! Back at it again.
