Sorry, internet was funky at the time, so I resorted to mobile. I meant to say "condition of some kind", though I haven't decided on when he got it. He may have gotten it after being thrown into the asylum. He may have had before the Great War, and may have had to cut down on it do its prices rising in response to said conflict. Either way, it is kinda meant to worm its way into his take on the tale and affect it. There was a hint of that when he hallucinated an automaton walking in the fanfic.

Or maybe he doesn't have a condition at all, just an imaginative mind. Having this trait outside Mistral's walls didn't really earn him any friends, though. If anything, it's probably one of the main reasons he was drafted into the army.

But then again, this is just me rambling.
