See, I think he can lie to himself -- I think he does lie to himself a lot -- but I think he knows he's lying. So ... is that really a lie? But yeah, I think we're saying basically the same thing -- that Roman really knows who he is (even if the writers don't!).

Thank you so much, I'm so glad that you liked it ... although I'm sorry that I depressed you. You know me and my neverending craving for angst!
