[ Xenk isn't lying to him. And what's even stranger, Astarion hasn't really manipulated him the way he does with basically everyone else. What they've shared about their respective undeaths has all been truthful, and not for any ulterior purpose. Astarion has been honest, even when the truth has been ugly and unkind.
And, yet, Xenk still thinks his company is pleasant?
He tells himself that Xenk sees the goodness in anyone and would therefore say this about anyone but it's a lie even he doesn't believe.
Not to worry! He can ruin this. ]
Well, we certainly do make for strange bedfellows.
