[Any other conversation and Nikos would seize on that opportunity like a snake on a mouse, strip all of the meat off it, and use its empty hide as a puppet to perform a cruel puppetshow demonstrating the Incompetancies of Kostos. His response is instead nearly absent, an automatic response to an open target.
This part of this conversation started with reference to the status that Nikos has rejected, and then Marisol--who Nikos is worried about, angry about, torn up like someone took a fucking carving knife to his insides--and then he circles back to Fulgencio, lets the name takes shape in his mind.
His scowl blackens.]
Only when it comes to giving you any kind of financial authority. Prince Fulgencio is a royal prick. Did you know? A bastard among bastards. What is it he's meant to be doing for the Inquisition besides smearing his shit on the doorstep? We're looking for loans among the Barbetas now? We'd do better shilling on the street. At least we'd owe nothing to Fulgencio and his parasites.
