Sorry, that was really bad. I'm sick at the moment and very sleepy. I'll try and edit into something better if I have time and energy tomorrow. If not, the most important elements are there, it's just lacking the literary spices and more eloquent delivery.

Is there a chance some of Alexi's more possessive and selfish impulses could accidentally have an effect on Erik after he takes the potion? I know the intent is to share memories, but it seems like side effects would be likely. I really don't want his plan to just go off without a hitch, but that's one I wanted to discuss with you since it's a bit complex.
