I'm basically writing a story, and I want to convey that a character is laughing in a sort of sneaky, wicked way without it being full-blown maniacal laughter. Does "laughs deviously" get the point across?

It's a script, so this particular line is just a quick parenthetical part of a character's dialogue.

Devious.. probably words like relish as in:

she/he relished in the idea of havoc and disorder

or

their devious mind relished in the idea of _______

Thanks. :) At first I had it as "(laughs maniacally)", but then I realized that that probably suggests the character is cackling like a supervillain. I want the laugh to be interpreted as sinister, but not necessarily loud and animated.

I just thought of generalized evil. Either I'm not imaginative or I'm not jaded enough by anything >_>.
