Good grief. Whoever you are, you've done the most amazing job of channeling my Macnair, and it's fan-fucking tastic.
Regulus' spiral downwards, pushed obliviously by Macnair, and you can see just how disillusioned he'd be by the end of it. I pity anyone forced to deal with Macnair, particularly in a work setting. Oh god I want to cuddle Regulus so hard.
And maybe rub up on Macnair a bit, but that's another story altogether.
Thank you so much, Mystery Author, you just made my week. :D
