Eejit: a Tale of the Final Fall of Man
“Ha ha ha! That’s jolly unhygienic!”
Much as it took a lot to get anyone to admit this, Contro wasn’t stupid, as such. Even Contro himself would usually agree that he was a terrible muddlehead a lot of the time. Muddlehead, he thought, was a funny word and so why not admit to being one? It was certainly a point, wasn’t it? And when you got right down to it, the life of a muddlehead was enjoyable and undemanding and, well, was there really any more to it?
In fact, if you believed the files and th...e case reports and all the other stuff that had been written and said about him during his time on the Tramp – and Contro did actually absorb most of that on some level, even if he needed ‘General Decay’ to bring it to his attention – he was actually regarded as highly intelligent and extremely empathic. Excessively empathic, in fact. But, even more so than Janya, Contro’s intelligence was specialised and his empathy necessitated that his intellect and behaviour followed – could only follow – a certain path.MoreLess
