Main character. Lawyer in his 20s (24-29 Yo).
He and Amy are being blackmailed by an anonymous figure, so they are under great pressure.
Eric is a go-getter. Egoistical, lying and manipulative. He’s rational, and has great self-control. Some people, who know him well even call him a psychopath. That doesn’t mean that he’s completely calm in this situation, but he’s trying to control it.
Voice: Confident, vigorous. He’s trying to be calm but still can’t help but sound a little nervous.
He will likely swear.
(calm and persuasive) Calm down, Amy. Look, I promise you, we’ll have this conversation later. But right now we need to deal with this, ok?
(concentrated and persuasive) Ok, it can only be one of them, so let’s think.
(concentrated on a magazine and paying little attention to the conversation) Yeeaah, I’m not sure this is him.
