You've squeezed the guy inside his world...he doesn't have much room for compromise...usually you allow some breathing room for your characters...does that make sense?

Oh, yeah, I think so. Huh, I usually do give them more space, even bookmark-types. Maybe I was intent on trapping my impression of him...
