I’m struck again by how … off he is. He’s just a little too large, a little too ferocious, a little too captivating. He doesn’t shine like I always imagined an angel might, and he’s obviously not pure and clean in the way that angels are depicted, but there’s something about him, something alien and other. Something decidedly not demonic, though I want to demonize him—or I used to want that anyway.
