[That's no deep, guarded secret. But she can understand Jaskier's puzzlement. He'd met her under very specific circumstances, and very unusual ones at that.
Which isn't fair to him.]
When you met me at the party...Julie had given me something. To make me feel happy and relaxed and really good. That's the same reason she introduced us, because she figured you could also make me happy and feel good, for a little while. And you did, don't take me acting differently than that night to mean I have regrets or anything. This is just the real me. And I figured we'd never see each other again, so I'd never have to deal with you meeting the real me. She's...not nearly as fun or likeable.
[Nadine knows herself. She knows what she is. Oh she can fool people into believing she's something else, quite well when she puts in the effort, but she doesn't feel like all that effort right now. And it's only fair. He's wasting his time being sweet to her. He's nice.

She's poison to nice people. She ruins them.
Just look at what had happened to Larry.]
