“Essentially what people react to, I think, is vulnerability in the characters they watch,” Braden said. “I don’t care how mean they are, how ruthless they can be or whatever, but there is a vulnerability, and there’s a vulnerability in this relationship to Nikki and vice versa. I think that is what people respond to.”

Braeden also complimented his scene partner, Melody Thomas Scott, and noted that they’re willing to put themselves out there. He indicated that vulnerability as performers is important, too. “That’s where art comes in,” Braeden said. “You open a window to the inner soul, or the conflicts, or the hurt.”

Victor and Nikki have certainly faced their fair share of bumps in the road, but something always draws them back together. They’re soul mates and there’s just no getting around that. What will ultimately reunite Victor and Nikki this time around? There’ll undoubtedly be some crisis that pushes them back in each other’s orbit.

Perhaps Jack’s (Peter Bergman) scheming will blow up in his face. Nikki may need Victor’s support sooner or later. Victoria’s (Amelia Heinle) potential health issues could help them bond as well. Of course, an Adam recast would undo a lot of the family damage. Victor’s cruel actions wouldn’t be quite as bad if Adam survived.
