OOC ± Thoughts On Headcasing

...and why it is so very, very awful. Not just from a "dude they took out a chunk of your brain and put a zipper on your head" perspectve, but from a societal one as well. I'll quote the only scene where it gets addressed directly:

DG: I'm DG, by the way, and this is--

CAIN: I know. A headcase.

GLITCH: I have a proper name. And w-when I remember it, I will tell you.

DG: What's a headcase?

CAIN: It's what the state does to re-educate criminals. Rip out their brains, make them prisoners of their own minds. Ain't that right, convict?

GLITCH: Hey, whoa, I ain't no convict! A-and just in case I am it was a bogus charge, a a a frame job, I'm sure of it!

( Merry old land, my ass. Also spoilers and etc.. )

That covers the basics. If you'd like elaboration then query away, I'll make something up answer to the best of my ability!
