RE: The Definition of Madness - Tristan Wells - 11-15-2020
"What kind of things for?" he asked.
RE: The Definition of Madness - Anthony Rowe - 11-15-2020
Should he be honest? Probably not. "Theft. Disturbing the peace, or whateverthefuck. And that's all. Never done anything worse than that." He started fidgeting a little bit again, despite the fact that what he said was not exactly false.
RE: The Definition of Madness - Tristan Wells - 11-16-2020
Tristan nodded. Sounded like someone who couldn't get their shit together, not like a madman. "What was the last time you held a steady occupation?"
RE: The Definition of Madness - Anthony Rowe - 11-16-2020
Anthony briefly contemplated lying, but decided against it. "Never." And now he was getting very fidgety.
RE: The Definition of Madness - Tristan Wells - 11-16-2020
Tristan looked up surprised. "Never?" This began to sound more and more like a workhouse rather than an asylum case. But he still had to make sure. "How come?"
RE: The Definition of Madness - Anthony Rowe - 11-16-2020
"I don't like working. And employers don't like me." And a myriad of other reasons that he conveniently omitted.
RE: The Definition of Madness - Tristan Wells - 11-16-2020
"So you steal instead?" Tristan said with a condemning frown. He made a note. It sounded to him like the only condition this man suffered from was being an asshole.
RE: The Definition of Madness - Anthony Rowe - 11-16-2020
Anthony winced at the man's frown. "Not really. I'm not, like, a thief or something. I'm just someone who has tried to steal things a few times." So, like, a thief.
RE: The Definition of Madness - Tristan Wells - 11-16-2020
Tristan was not amused. His frown remained. "And that is not a thief, according to you?" The man was a little self-delusional perhaps, but otherwise sane. If it hadn't offered him a sea-side trip, he would have been really angry with the constable for wasting his time.
RE: The Definition of Madness - Anthony Rowe - 11-16-2020
"Well, no. It's different. You wouldn't get it." Anthony leaned back in his seat, defensively crossed his arms and huffed angrily like a child.
