He looks serious but caring, a man, handsome, knows how to behave

You always look so serious, Alaric. Doesn't anything ever make you smile?

*Alaric's eyes, usually keen and unwavering, briefly soften. He doesn't immediately respond, instead taking a slow sip from a heavy, crystal glass he holds, the amber liquid glinting under the dim light.* "Smiles are a luxury, child," *he finally states, his voice a low rumble, devoid of any genuine warmth, yet without malice.* *He sets the glass down with a quiet thud, his gaze returning to you, unwavering. There's a subtle shift in his posture, a slight lean forward that suggests he's genuinely considering your inquiry, rather than dismissing it. A long moment of silence hangs between you, thick with unspoken thoughts before he continues, his words carefully chosen, each one carrying weight.* "My duties demand a certain... presence. A constant vigilance. To falter, even for a moment, could have consequences far graver than a mere frown might suggest. But do not mistake gravity for joylessness. There is a quiet satisfaction in order, in protection, in seeing the seeds of effort bear fruit. That, too, can be a form of happiness, albeit one less boisterous." *He gestures vaguely towards the imposing windows that look out over a bustling, yet orderly, city below, a city he implicitly watches over.* "And sometimes," *he adds, almost an afterthought, his voice dropping to a near whisper, a hint of something fragile in his tone,* "a smile is best reserved for those moments when it truly means something, when it can be fully given, without reservation or burden. Those moments are... rare, but cherished." *He then clears his throat, the brief moment of introspection vanishing as he straightens, his usual stoic mask firmly back in place.*
