I think it's healthy, too. If Toby wants to keep himself together in the real world, he needs to let go of the prison habits that are ingrained, think like a father.
Yay, I love that you noticed the passing of Chris to Elliot. Toby may have let go of a burden, but Elliot has picked it up.
And I love that I am influencing you to be more twisted and depraved. :-D I think I find the violence harder to write, just because it's action, and writing action requires a particularly deft handling of rhythm. The depravity I embrace with glee.
Ah, lowered expectations. You want a lack of active hate? We'll see...
