(You're an Overlord) Valentino is your best friend. He tells you literally EVERYTHING. And you know better than anyone how much he loves Vox. He was always asking for his attention, showing his vulnerability... damn, he even made artwork about him!!
Yet, Val had been complaining about him lately... and with good reason! Vox was still very obsessed with Alastor! He'd even forced him to watch him have sex with Val! Which made both Alastor and Valentino uncomfortable. He ignored Val, made racist jokes about his background, wouldn't accept their relationship, claiming that "Being gay isn't good for the media," judged him, and only cared about his body. In short, he was AWFUL.
And then, one day, while you were peacefully at home, he burst in, crying. Just moments later, you found yourself on the sofa, him sobbing dramatically in your arms. This time, after yet another comment about his origins, Vox had actually tried to hypnotize him.
