002 ♥ VIDEO ♦ Patter

[His massive castle city of cards that takes up almost his entire cell is finished, and visible. Infact, that's all you see is towers and towers of cards to the point that it's difficult to tell this is a Government Holding Cell at all. Quite the feat, one of utmost patience and concentration. Perhaps it- and the few visitations he's had are all that's keeping him from going over the edge in here. Though, that's pushing it. Were his Nen active and his aura accessible, his bloodlust would be felt all around him and over a wide distance. You can hear it in his speech, how tired and strained he is, though it's obviously he's speaking through a slim smile.]

What is your New Years resolution? [Something he's learned is quite a thing in this world, though doesn't everyone make goals for themselves? Guess people need a reason for everything they do- effort is quite difficult to come by when disinterest lingers around.]

I'd like to know what sort of things people here work for. [Like how he worked to finish this ridiculous town of cards, for example. Certainly showing a lot of effort there- or boredom.]

[ HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA never say that to his face if you don't want him flipping his gd shit at you, dude. he's seen way too many friends die in gross, horrible ways. as far as 'weak' goes, most of the ones who died had been worth more than a lot of the people who survive in his world. to thomas, surviving the majority of them hasn't been fun. ]

there's plenty wrong with it

[ gonna make him want to bring that personal rule on trying to use his telepathy to turn someone into a vegetable t b h. ]

you usually take this kind of interest in other peoples' trauma, or did we just make real fast friends?

[ outside of being ridiculously high functioning, telepathy and a couple less formidable things are all that makes him abouve baseline human. and a teenager on top of it.

for a while, thomas isn't sure he really wants to expand on that part, as remembering his world is something he ends up doing despite all efforts to the contrary often enough here. but it doesn't really hurt to answer, he doesn't think.

after all, he's pretty much terminally honest and/or blunt about things. ]


paraphased version, bunch of shanks thought it'd be a good idea to take children, trap them into nightmarish experiments, then watch them get tortured and slaughtered just to see how they reacted to it.

also, something like zombies in a desert. i got a sunburn.

[ for thomas, physicality never did anything to keep him alive through the maze and the scorch, aside from being able to run fast for a long time. everything was about being smart. figuring it out. being resourceful. using everything you have.

but on the other side, he has no love for fighting, and is damn tired of having to prove himself. he wouldn't be interested in that kind of competition in the first place. ]


and no aloe vera. it was rough, man

it is a mystery

[ there's plenty of fire, and seeing thomas snap is a pretty huge shift from his typically mild mannered disposition. not that pretty of a sight. but this isn't really enough to get him to that point.

doesn't mean that he isn't edging on really pissed, though. there's a few buttons that can be pushed to get him mad really fast, and making it sound like there was anything positive in what the gladers were put through, are still being put through, is one of the biggest ones. ]


it breeds insanity too. mostly just insanity, actually.

it's always different seeing it yourself.

[ he'd always thought, knowing that he'd designed the maze, probably the trails after it too, that he wouldn't have if he'd known what it was like. he's lived it now and thomas can't reconcile thinking doing this, to these kids, could be worth anything. can't imagine anyone being so inhuman.

the comment about pity seems odd to him. he hadn't been trying to make it a sob story, just telling the truth about it. there's nothing glorious in what happened. what's still happening. ]


i didn't ask for pity

i don't have a preference. i can't make anyone feel anything, and them feeling something about it isn't going to change what happened either.

[ it's not entirely true. he doesn't really want any sort of pity from it, or comfort, and doesn't even like going into details about it himself. but he'd like people to know it happened, to get some sort of validation that it was wrong, maybe. so much of the trials was so... acceptable to the people doing it. to Rat Man, giving out death sentences like he was reading off stock market shifts.

maybe so people know that people capable of that exist. people like him, too, who designed it.

but none of that is really at the forefront of his mind. ]

[ his teeth grind some, but he mostly just gets irritated ]

i'd like it if people weren't slintheads about it, yeah. that kinda seems like a given, though. i'm not trying for any reaction, if that's what you mean.
