That sounds like a story that needs elaboration.

[tetrahedonist]

I won't name names, but familial abuse, societal abuse, bullies, later a guy who would rather wipe his mind than have a conversation with him about his extracurriculars. A guy he called his friend, even!

By the time I came along, he was one domino short of complete collapse, and I didn't exactly have a bunch of choices open but to push it.

Plus, I had my own issues! Don't we all?

Don't you?

[makeanentrance]

Yes. We all have issues. Unfortunately - or not, depending on your point of view - they can be exploited.

Which sounds like that's what you did.

[tetrahedonist]

Sure.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[makeanentrance]

Not every villain admits their villainy. It's commendable for you to be so honest.

[tetrahedonist]

More like I gave up on getting a fair hearing from you, but whatever you prefer. Don't let me confuse you with context, pally.

[makeanentrance]

You think I'm judging unfairly?

[tetrahedonist]

Yeah! I'm way too proud to beg for your approval of my decisions, not knowing the first thing about me except that I have great taste in cinema, but don't feel bad.

If I had a dime for every time some know-nothing called me crazy or evil without asking a single question, I could finance my own movie.

I've always wanted to do a heist flick. How about you?

[makeanentrance]

Great taste in cinema gives you a lot of positive points.

Do you want to make an actual movie or do a real heist?

... Or say you're doing one just as a distraction for the other.

[tetrahedonist]

Same to you, honestly.

Which one do you prefer?

Look, sorry for the "know-nothing" crack. That wasn't fair.

There comes a point where the whole dimension turns on you and you just get tired, you know? Not John-Coffey-from-the-Green-Mile level tired, but Morpheus-from-the-Matrix level tired. No matter how many times or ways I talk about this stuff, it feels like nobody gets it.

[makeanentrance]

I know what you mean... People don't want to give you a chance. Or ... second or third chance.

A while back I would have taken the heist option. Now I want to try to go straight and get back to making movies.
