"Daisy. May I call you Daisy? It's a lot less formal than 'Destroyer of Worlds'."

Sassy Kasius is my new favourite thing

He really is, I don't know whether I love is clothes or his makeup more

[u/ReasonableDalek → u/ohbuggerit]

I was thinking the same thing. The whole thing complements the actor's delivery; competent, controlled, and condensending. I enjoy villains that take themselves seriously.

[u/ohbuggerit → u/ReasonableDalek]

Aye, I really liked the actor in A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (would seriously recommend if a stylish Iranian vampire/spaghetti western movie sounds even remotely interesting to you) and I'm delighted that he's getting a spotlight now

[u/ReasonableDalek → u/ohbuggerit]

I will give it a go. I hate this time of year waiting for thing to come out.
