I was a homicide detective, but I couldn't pull the trigger [naturally Will couldn't keep the job] so I teach forensics for the FBI...but lately I've been called to consult. I'm too unstable for the field, but I have a knack for the monsters.
[That's what his therapist said anyway, and it wasn't untrue, it was a gift and a curse to do what he could do. Lately however, he couldn't do anything except question whether or not any of this was good for him, what looking at the horrors and putting himself into the minds of darkness did to his own sense of self.]
There are plenty of bollocksed up cases out there: angel makers, gardeners...the homework never ends. If it did then we'd be out of a job [we as in two individuals who have a history of detective work of some kind, and it was difficult being in their line of work if the world was perfect] though it would give me plenty of time to devote to boat repairs and fishing.
[True enough, Will couldn't do anything about the Totem case from here and there was very little point in dwelling on it when his primary concern was figuring out his current situation.]
Do you plan on enjoying yourself? Swimming, disco, shuffleboard, bingo? [Will turned his face in John's direction offering a smile that completely transformed his face. Will wouldn't know what happens on cruise ships outside of the stereotypes of relaxation and leisure, his family was dirt poor, so he'd never set foot on a ship like this.] Though we should probably find you some pants, I'm not sure they'll let you do the Funky Chicken au naturel.
