You don't have to be insane to lose days. That doesn't make you insane.

[She's a little hung up on this whole insane thing, he's noticed. He can't say he's not hung up on it, too, but now that he knows who he is and who he's not, he's got a better grasp on it. He still gets a little hot under the collar and wakes up sweating, but it's much better than it was before. He's got a doctor and a simple treatment plan to thank for that.

He's also got a doctor and a complicated treatment plan to thank for his real issues with insanity in the first place. He's got another doctor he'll return to that he cannot believe would make it any better unless Will takes it upon himself to bring about a compromise.

Insanity is a hell of a thing. Will knows. All he can hope is that whatever happened to make her stuck on it wasn't as bad as what happened to him. No one deserves that.

But what if it was worse?]

A misfiring in the brain that can cause a black out or a loss of time isn't insanity. It's a physical problem. There's plenty of things that could cause it. Just because it's not common or commonly spoken of doesn't automatically mean you're insane, Alice.

[Will's not insane. Never was. He was just sick. Sick and getting sicker, and all on purpose.]

Anyone who says otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about and should shut their traps.

[he is
a little
mad]

[If only he knew.

It's not the first time she's heard a reassurance, from another dubious person. Pyro, for example, but he knows a little bit more than most do. She's suddenly feeling a little self-conscious even sending that to him to the first place. Whatever it is, she gets a small reminder of Rutledge. That's never a good sign.

Alice isn't the most familiar with modern slang, it only takes a few minutes to stop herself from asking "what traps?" before it dawns on her.

Oh. He wants them to shut up? Okay, Alice can agree with that. Everyone around her sans Nan Sharpe have been a bit of a joke. On a better day, she would smile.]

The sentiment is shared, Mr. Graham.

[No, but raving and ranting about hallucinations can be up there, not that Will wants to know.]

[infomodder]

[Dubious. Will could handle being thought of as dubious. Law enforcement is a field that attracts some rather unwanted individuals, there is no doubt about it. Law enforcement, journalism, certain parts of the medical field...]

Feel better?

[Where else is there to go from there, really?]

[digophelia]

[Not really, no. Alice won't burden him with that and she's already worried that she's done so. She gives a hollow reassurance that she will be.]

I do, thank you.

[It makes her even more worried for him rather than her own well-being.]

Next time, you can share if you like. Even if it's something silly about your dogs. Or just happy things.

[infomodder]

[Layers and layers of lies hidden beneath the sad glint in a child's eyes.

Too bad he can't see her eyes.]

I'm glad, and I'll keep that in mind. Hope everything looks up for you, Alice.

[There are so few happy things in his life, and she basically mentioned the big one: dogs. He has no reason to call on a child (or anyone) unless he absolutely needs them, same as no one will have a reason to call upon a cannibalistic serial killer once he returns home unless it's out of need.

What a world.]

[digophelia]

[Only because there are things that she sees that remind her a little too much of herself. Or even the darker aspects of Wonderland.

Still proceeding with caution.]

Thank you, Mr. Graham, I hope the same for you as well.

[In the meantime, Alice will... just let him be for now, out of fear of bothering him enough as it is.]
