@IsabelleHellraiser john wick is an INTERESTING take for this, okay i'm listening
@manifold I mean,

-awkward around everyone
-Keeps breaking the social rules of the secret society bc they don't make sense to him
-extremely skilled & practiced & focused at this one thing & not much else
-cool stash boxes with stuff
@IsabelleHellraiser good POINT
