Oh, it's very dangerous. Super dangerous. Damien can feel the attraction after all. And he hates how it resonates with something old in him, something he wished wasn't there.

"Of course some part of me wants to be petty. But the thing about being a good person is not stooping to that level."

He makes a mistake here, steps in to try and punctuate the point by poking Damien in the chest as he says not. Which is mostly stupid because he should be trying to get away from this flow of emotion, not moving toward it.
