I refuse to believe that Vox is purely with Valentino just to use him. Like, look at them!! Vox's eyes didn't leave Valentino once throughout this scene. Until Alastor showed up... (kinda feels like that's how most things go since Al's been the Vees' captive...)
I get that Vox is a master manipulator, but not even he can fake reactions like this.
This guy tries so hard to seem like he has everything under control, but he doesn't even know how to keep his own emotions in check.
I do think this ^ was a real attempt at manipulation. But because he has genuine feelings towards Valentino, it gets all messy, and he ends up embarrassing himself.
And the way Val looks at himm... Ughhh.
Vox. Hun. THIS IS WHY KEEPING YOUR EX AROUND IS NO GOOD. He's about to lose everything.
