(THIRD POV)
Pretending to be someone good in front of bad guys is simple. You smile at them they smile back. Both of you know you are pretending but you do nothing. It is business, do what you have to.
You must want to strike the deal.
You can't narrow your eyes at them, you can't glare. You smile brightly, and if darkness comes, you can use the smile as light. It always worked, because it is simple, no, there is no training, it just comes from within.
Life is shit and some people are not meant to be goofy and all smiley but you have to do what you have to do.
"It brought a smile to many people, they loved it."
"Yes, I saw the pictures, they looked good."
"I almost brought the kids there the first time for a family photo shoot but my wife won't allow me, she said something about bad eyes."
Bad eyes? How about bad guys?
