'He was looking down at her with the faint trace of a smile, it was not a look of discovery but of familiar contemplation - as if he, too, were seeing the long-expected and never-doubted.'Before this line there's actually a very detailed description of his face which I considered doing, but decided it was describing more permanent facial qualities, rather than an expression, and therefore not really possible. I do apologise that my face doesn't convey this character's 'look of a ruthless innocence which would not seek forgiveness or grant it', and that my eyes don't impart a 'superlative value to myself and to the world'.
