The manipulation was one of the bad things I mentioned; it's pretty hard to forgive someone for taking a child, telling them that he honestly cared about them, only so it'll be easier to kill them seven years down the road. Because...yah. He's a bad, bad man.

Van's fucked up. There's no denying that. xD;

...And yet I love him so. ;.;

and thanks for letting me act like a total Vangirl at yah. I'm actually kinda glad you hate him, since I only manage to talk about him like this to other Van-lovers, so a different perspective is a nice change of pace. :3
