"Full-up crazy," Arrick agreed dully. "Makes you want to get back on that train all the way back, it does. They all seem to be a little balmy, the older ones, don't they?"
"Arrick," he replied, shaking the hand as a necessary formality.

"Dunno," Arrick shrugged, and skidded the potatoes across the table. Hmm, actually, they looked quite good...he scooped a spoonful for himself and plunked it on his plate.
"Yeah. Name's Arrick." He watched as a professor yelled at the two crazy boys. At least he knew that sort of crazy wasn't tolerated.
