[ He bristles immediately; if there are two things with which he is decidedly Not Cool, it's someone insinuating that he doesn't look like he belongs, and being threatened. Given their previous interactions Nate has to wonder if it's the environment itself bringing out things that rankle too easily, but since the very first statement out of Klaus' mouth rubbed him the wrong way and the last thirty seconds haven't improved, he feels fewer qualms about crushing the entirety of his drink and turning to look at him fully. ]

Third: you made it pretty clear from the get-go that you knew her well enough to have a handle on her habits, which suggests you were already aware she was a vampire - so no big secret between knowing parties, right?
[ Some secrets really are meant to be kept rings a little ironic here when Nate remembers him volunteering one freely back in the beyul, unless that was just a tactic to engender trust, but what does he know? Everyone just thinks he's a meathead who hates wearing monkey suits. ]
