doctor_j_crane: Crane looking neutral. (I See)

I’m out of zero, since the warden administration decided to get their act together. [Eye roll, Crane’s obviously not impressed with the time he spent down there.]

Unsurprisingly, nothing has changed. Good job though, with getting rid of the fear gas mess so far. The dining hall is looking quite pleasant. You could almost eat your lunch there without thinking about someone getting murdered where your chair is. [Crane just smiles at the camera for a long moment, before flicking it off.]

[Private – Irene Adler]

I don’t suppose you know anything about this? [Crane holds up a wad of paper which appears to be a file on Irene, with a kiss in lipstick on the top. He’s put it in a plastic sleeve to avoid touching the icky lady germs.]

[Private – Ms Rose]

I’m out of zero, finally, but you’re not in the infirmary. Where are you?

Where's the fun in that?

It's not about fun. It's about discomfort. Fear.

I don't find anything frightening about murder. I live on what shallow imitations of death this ship's inhabitants can impose on each other. Between when their eyes go dull and when they gasp through new lungs in the infirmary there is an endless black, and the fear of this is one you cannot imitate with alchemistries.

If you are a doctor of the mind you should know - even if you are an unapologetic sadist with a penchant for hallucinogens, there is always someone less sane then you. That being said, I see you've met Lady Aleera as well.

It appears that you also have the place of honor of being far less sane then I am. It's somewhat hypocritical to be calling me a sadist with your little speech about enjoying watching people die. Which, by the way, is probably a reflection of your own control issues.

darknessb4me: (you're an idiot)
From: [personal profile] darknessb4me
No, it would be hypocritical if I denied that I am one as well. I have little patience for people who pretend to be something other than what they are. It's condescending.

Or perhaps your assumptions are inaccurate. I wouldn't be so quick to place the label of 'condescending' onto something that you don't fully understand.

Given that, it is refreshing to meet someone who is open to admitting their own mental state.

From: [personal profile] darknessb4me
It would take a special kind of stupid to think I'm not, and it would be assuming everyone around me is an idiot to know I am not and expect them to believe I am.

That's why it's condescending.

If that's what you think, I suppose there's little I can do to convince you. Even if you are utterly wrong.

Enlighten the masses, Dr. Crane. Why am I wrong?

From: [identity profile] doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com
I'm not going to play this game with you. Frankly, I know I'm right and I rather think that the masses, especially the masses here, don't give a damn.

darknessb4me: (hello)
From: [personal profile] darknessb4me
Quick terminology question, then: What is the the name of the defense mechanism characterized by complete avoidance of an uncomfortable subject in conversation?

Date: 2010-07-20 08:58 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com
It's simply called 'avoidance'. You display most of its characteristics.

And that one's "projecting." You see, I do know something after all.

From: [identity profile] doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com
Projecting, of course. An impressive way of saying 'it's not me, it's you'. What a very mature response.

darknessb4me: (heh)
From: [personal profile] darknessb4me
Then tell me why it isn't condescending, if you have an answer. Naturally, I assume at the moment that you don't.

What, pray tell, could I possibly be avoiding?

Frankly, I don't care what you're avoiding. You certainly seem to have some issue with it though, as you keep on bringing it up. So why don't you have some sharing time? It might make you feel better.

Ahh, a ringing "no," then. Lovely.

I seem to have received the exact same thing from you.
