Tobias may one day learn to change the greeting on his voicemail. Until then, there's only the default.

He really was so trustworthy at the time, was he? He wouldn't have sold you out to anyone else?

[Will Graham, the only person other than Dorian himself and Toby who has the key to the safety deposit box where Dorian's portrait was kept. Really, Toby isn't especially close to Will and wouldn't know just how much or little to trust him, but Dorian seems pretty certain Will wouldn't have lost the key or given it to anyone else. No, Dorian wouldn't choose just anyone with what should be a well-guarded secret.

Only he did choose to trust the subject of his project to break someone. To think, Dorian not only entrusted Will with his body but also with the portrait itself. Both of which are really sore points to the man who is now Dorian's husband but was initially rejected a little before that came into fruition.

If anything, Toby isn't surprised about Dorian paying his portrait a little visit from time to time. Really, that's just the way he is, and the fact he'd given Toby a key as well meant that Toby could've visited or had it relocated if he'd wanted. Which he hadn't... though if he had, it could've prevented this situation.

Sighing,] I guess that makes the most sense. The least you could do is try showing some remorse, then?

[Even if it means lying about that remorse. Like, come on, Dorian. It's not as if lying is beneath you—you've even lied to Toby before. And not just once! Surely you could convincingly lie to Will.]

I doubt he would have.

[ Dorian didn't fully know the layers of bizarre ethics Will's Baltimore ran off of. But he doubted that he'd foist the portrait off on someone else, that'd be rude (and, as Dorian was coming to learn, rudeness was A Thing with Will.) ]

I'll get in contact with him. Hopefully I'll be able to sweet-talk him into giving it back, while apologizing in the process. If not...well, I'll think of something.
