Gene is absolutely lovable and cute.. and a master magician apparently.
I think “Drunk men only” is in reference to “S’got rules”. Maybe he only steals from the drunk? Then again this is my 3rd time reading through the archives. I ain’t givin nothin away.
Drunks will keep on drinking until they either hit “rock bottom” — or die. It’s more hellish for some than others, and the sooner you quit drinking the less damage you have to cope with. Stealing from drunks is thus a good thing: They hit bottom quicker — and if they don’t, at least they can’t buy more booze immediately. Drinking while blotto is a mistake anyway — can’t tell good booze from bad, won’t remember it, it’s just putting off the hangover. Roll ’em!
Definitely glad I came back for a re-read, Gene makes a whole hell of a lot more sense after you get to know the Jakes. Hat’s off to you spike, I don’t know if you’ve got a Templar bible going or if you’re memory is just that good, but either way that’s some impressive world-building right there.

Catalyze decomposition? What? Drunk men only? Does that mean he isn’t ALLOWED to be sober?

if i’m not mistaken his rules for picking break down to “only take it if they won’t miss it”
I think he’s been taught to steal in order to “catalyze decomposition” of non-Jake society.
I’m curious as to Gene’s past…..curiouser and curiouser.

‘Drunks will keep on drinking until they either hit “rock bottom” — or die.’
That is utter horseshit.
no it’s accurate most ppl in AA fall into the “hit rock bottom” catagory the rest are there by court order
