But there might be a tactic that's even better.
He knows something about the other Zane. Nathan told him, once. It was something about hope, and finding people to care about. To love. He understands that. But, in the end, he can have that and be ruthless. He doesn't have to let any weakness creep in, except when it comes to the few he's claimed.

[ He injects a little bit of desperation into his voice, under a layer of control. It's complex. He shouldn't assume his counterpart is incompetent. ]
[ ooc: Zane is switched, and planning to try and draw people in by pretending. He might not actually end up killing them, if he's interested enough in who they are and what they're saying, but fucked-up torture-y things might happen anyway. If you want to arrange something specific, pm or plurk. ]
