Eli seemed perfectly normal, but now and then Victor would catch a crack, a sideways glance, a moment when his roommate’s face and his words, his look and his meaning, would not line up. Those fleeting slices fascinated Victor.

Oh, yeah.
Thanks for being entertaining.
I had thought he had meant our conversations. I had thought he had meant it had been … fun. That we’d had fun. Maybe I had got it all wrong. Maybe it had only been fun to see me try to set my best friend up with my crush. Maybe I was only fun when I was a slow-motion emotional train wreck.
