Needed a diploma to get into the Police Academy, learn how to do that. But by that time I knew what I was doing it for. I never really got why I needed to learn some of the stuff I did-- and in the Academy it was cool, 'cause I got to learn stuff I needed to learn about and then go out and train.
[Credence is the second person to ask him that, and he wonders
why. He's been a cop for almost half his life, what the hell
else would he do? He's good at it, it's what he knows.]

no subject
Date: 2019-03-27 07:49 pm (UTC)'Cause I asked her what she was gonna do after she went home. She used to be a scientist.
You don't know her? She graduated right before she became Fraser's warden.
